Why did these peoples delete the word Buddhism out?

[sramouykeo979]

@niruttiko Because yuon don't believe in God or Budhism. Yuon had killed many Khmer Krom Budhist monks. Before yuon murdered monks, they made monks to changed monks's clothes then they killed monks. Some one who changed Budhism out of the original song, because he loves to steal & copy like yuon steal khmer land and changed khmer names into Viet names.

[niruttiko]

@sramouykeo979 Yeah it is very true.

[niruttiko]

Why did these peoples delete the word Buddhism out?

[sramouykeo979]

Thus, now is it a good time to take out Buddhism religious because other religious is brought to Cambodia?

The person who said this sentence above. When he was little, he lives with his parents' support. When he can walk and find his money, he can change everything like Pol Pot said (Sohk nerk nah, Kbal nerk neng). That what he is.

[sramouykeo979]

You can't reproduce the original song from someone else, unless you are a yuon head. I don't care how many religious right now in Cambodia. Do you speak khmer, do you have khmer blood? Go to the doctor and check up your blood cell with the bone of your great grand parent. I bet your khmer too.

[khmerphilosopher]

We had so a history and culture. Khmer stand together and work with each on the path of re building our nation.

[alpinetrooper562]

We sang this beautiful anthem at the start of many of our fundraising events in Long Beach. I personally cherish this song, as it reminds me of a very glorious past that Khmers should not forget and must come together, again, and strive to rebuild and restore our country to that stature once more. Peace, love and unity to all my Khmer people.

[laughaholic]

thanks, we're actually practicing the national anthem for a culture show and didn't really have it read clearly or karaoke to verify if the words were accurate or not (:

[lchan90a]

what is this song about?

[virak855]

I'm not sur, it is about a khmer art, prasat khmer, khmer religion ...

[bunheng007]

this song about history and culture of khmer...

[naruto10119]

this is almost like the national anthem for cambodia, except the national anthem is " nokor reach" . Both this song and Nokor Reach were composed by Samdech Choun Nat.

[soksou]

I miss this song. when i study in khmer. i sing this song every morning, but i don't want to sing it, i went to school late. hahahahaha

[boy050589]

why they kept changing things from the original? those are our khmer identity... it also shows disrespect to our Samdech Sangreach Chuon Nat who wrote this song... what happen to the head of those producer? they should take some more nutrition to keep their brain cell from dying too fast..

[iloveyounas]

I wonder why they change the meaning of the original? they deleted "Pre Put Sas-sna(Buddhism)" and put "Can Study(think about khmer's meaning)" ,at 1:35 to 1:37 which u will see that phrases. I remember when i study is that "Buddhism is the target that Khmer must enlarge." Not like this song " (Can study) is the target that Khmer must enlarge."

[virak855]

You're rigth, I didn't notice it. We must to send a e-mail to Tvk channel.

[iloveyounas]

thank you so much! i already sent video response for this song! so pls..forgive me cos i not good at making video!

[nekthek]

@virak855 Yes........!I maybe......they change this because they wanna be famous like Samdach Jun Nath!!!!

But in mind, they are SHIT..........Still Shit

TVK! FUCK YOU!!!!...........SHIT TV..........!

Thank that remind us Brother

[Khmerbuddhist]

Me too, I wonder if the producer think about that or just only make the sound and video out ? humm

[Sopheap855]

@iloveyounas I think, ""Pre Put Sas-sna"" refers to religion BUDDHA, before, all Cambodian are Buddhism, however, nowadays there are many religion behide Buddha, effects to Cambodian, therefore MOST Cambodian are buddism, SOME of them are belonged to others religion.

this is a reason which chaged that phrases. ( from my point of view only)

[iloveyounas]

@Sopheap855 : Do u think when this song was created, there was not other religious in Cambodia, too? there is not the only one religious all the time in a country because people are thinking differently!

Thus, now is it a good time to take out Buddhism religious because other religious is brought to Cambodia?

I think they should declare the reason why they take out that meaning. if so many people vote to change, that would be ok.

[niruttiko]

@Sopheap855 the meanings of the song tell us about the abilities of the Khmer to spread cultures including Buddhism as well in the ancient time, but not for the present , it doesn't reflect the situations at the time being. nowadays they can believe any thoughts which fit them the most, but do not take advantages from other unjustly.

[Vannida2010]

@iloveyounas I thought because we have the word ( religion ) that included Buddhism in there too..

They changed to ( everybody take Khmer culture to study )..good meaning !!

[TheLovelynich]

@iloveyounas actually this video is originally lyrics from Somdach Jounnat. The phrase 'Pre Put Sasna' is in the new lyrics that was added by Samdach Tevong(our new Monk's King).
