I love my people and nation of Cambodia. My blood and my soul is Khmer, Please protect our nation from " evil Thailand" Khmer united as one and we will stand strong together. Khmer !!!khmer!! jay yo jay yo !!!!
@Thai99time999 Man, after all the time I had seen a lot change in Thailand and the real bad Thais is the Yellow shirt asshole and the stupid prince that want to ruler after his father. His majesty of Thai is very good for his subjects, his son is dump and stupid. Ap pisit is dog and dick sucker. Go red shirt , and I support them on their path to true democracy. Let me side sorry to all Southeast Asian nations. Please no war, economic development is the key word to a peaceful nations.
Be aware that there are stupid people in every Nation. I've been to thailand 3 times and I always appreciate thai. I just wish that khmer, thai, lao could live side by side peacefully. We have so much in common that we could share and develop to our Nation prosperity instead of spending time to fight (here in YT and elsewhere)
At this time Pol Pot and his comrades were making plans to bring Cambodia back to Year zero which none of these people may not aware or survive, unfortunately.
I truly don't undertand the meaning of being proud of being cambodian. Is there something to be proud of or to be ashamed of? No, i'm just happy with what I have and grateful to survive the khmer rouge regime. So this expression is a kind meaningless...
Proud of being Cambodian cause it does not matter what others try to do to us, we are always coming back and standing strong! In the 70's Hanoi tried to eliminate us by terminated all of our intellectuals, educated, and destroyed our infrastructure as a nation. They thought that we'll never recover from those destruction but we did. Cambodian everywhere is standing up and rebuilding our country back. This expression has no meaning to you but it does has a lot of meaning to Cambodian!
If you know how to read. i'm not ashamed of myself but by those like you. Here in YT someone insulted other nation's prince. How dare he/she?? A king/prince of whatever country is much respected and one has no right to insult him.
@lumieresrei If you're not ashamed of yourself who is your countrymen, VC boy??? That's right because most of VC like you ashamed of yourself cause you could not do anything about it. Your(VC/Yuon) agent and Hanoi tried to eliminate us but they failed. Now we're building our country and you're done nothing except crying.You're so confusing yourself who is insulting who??? You're not from my country!!! You're from somewhere else and pretend to be Khmer and ashamed of yourself. That's funny!!
It's so easy hidden behind the keyboard and writing bullshits??!! I'm a 100% khmer but you're just plain arrogance. This is a typical behaviour of many cambodians like you, when one disagrees with his opinion one's mandatoroy treated as a traitor or a Youn!! Next time pls be more constructive, your reply is plenty of bullshits!!!
@lumieresrei, I must say you are an Imposer.Faker.Traitor of Cambodia! Hahaha! It's not a surprise to me to see a whole bunch of these imposer/faker like you,running around and bad mouth about Cambodia cause you're never once to begin with as a Cambodian LOL.You're one of the typical imposer who call yourself Khmer.We're all knowing your trick.All you want to do,is to degrading and break the unity among Khmer by mocking our national anthem and Nation. Stop BS pls! Call yourself something else!!
YOu know what? If you were a politician you'd be a dictator!!! Like Pol Pot, Sihanouk or Hun Sen!!! You would kill every one that his opinion differs from yours. Go to learn to word DEMOCRACY in a dictionnary. Who the hell are you to say I'm an imposter, faker???? You're becoming more and more stupid!!!
@lumieresrei Only an ignorant person is in favor of the word STUPID and you are a definition of this word! Yes, your dictionary is suck, dude. You need to checking other dictionary for the word DEMOCRACY!
Hahaha... You want me to be a politician?! No problem dude, just vote for me in 2013, I will be your next prime minister.... Hahahahah 55555555+
you're welcome! hey you're a kool Filipino...hehe....i dont know maybe he yelled out something about independence, i'm not sure. wow you understand khmer too?
I'll answer your question. Thailand speak Thai and Cambodia speak Khmer. Khmer was the first ethnic group of people who settled in SEA (1000 years before Thai people arrived. Khmer's language & culture were influenced by Hindu & Budhist from India. Thai or Tai came later. Once they settled down, Thai learned to adapt Khmer's culture. Thai's alphabets were derived from Khmer's alphabets. To answer your question, we speak different languages even though we share similar culture.
thanks for the answers. it seems like your point of view is correct, because i took a southeast asian history class and these info looks right. i don't want to have a huge debate or anything, but isn't Tai first originated in china or elsewhere? and I'm not purposely offending anyone who is Thai.
Yes, based on a historian, Tai is originally from China. Following the decline and fall of the Khmer empire in the 13th - 14th century, the Buddhist Tai Kingdoms of Sukhothai was formed, later on known as Siam. Finally in 1939 renamed to Thailand. Khmer lost vast majority of land to Thai. Does Khmer want to claim the land lost back? The answer is NO. Khmer only want Thailand to respect The Treaty of 1904 & 1907. Khmer must protect the current boundary and appreciate what we have.
I do agreed some of what u said on here, but Khmer people didn't lose some of the land but majority of the land. Land that stretch from Burma, Laos, Vietnam, current Thailand and all the way to part of Indonesia. I highly recommend that u read our history that written by a french author. they wrote it with no bias, and they the first white man to visit/ invades our country during the 15th century. that is why our people speak more french than English
By comparison even though Cambodia is smaller than Thailand in term of territory but when you do the math, cambodia still has more land per its people...
Cambodia 181,035 km2 =181,000 km2 14 million people
actually, KhmerMoveOn, khmer people settled there over 10,000 years ago ( angkor watt is estimated 10,000 years old+) or should i say khmer people are indigenous people meaning they been living there.
I agreed Khmer people perhaps settled in SE over 10,000 years ago. However Angkor Wat is estimated to be 10,000 years old plus. Do you have any evidences or facts to support this claim. Angkor Wat was built by king Suryavarman II in the early 12th century as his state temple and capital city.
its sad to think that many of these people possibly died during khmer rouge ='[. God bless their souls

pali? i've never heard of that. i thought khmer language is adapted from the ancient language of Sanskrit or something like that.

Maybe it could be both. There are other countries that have a similar ancient language such Burma, Thailand, Kampuchea, and Laos.

181,000/14,000,000 = 0.0129 km2/person
