Cambodia: THE NUMBER OF VIETNAMESES IN CAMBODIA [EN]

A dangerous colonization of Cambodia:

In November 1992, 200,000 Khmer refugees are repatriated by UN from the camps of Thailand. APRONUC (UNTAC), which was in charge of organizing the general elections in Cambodia in May 1993, had recorded 4,764,430 voters (from 18 years old and more, of the 19 provinces and Phnom-Penh and Sihanoukville) by specifying that there would be 46% of the population below 18 years old. For UNTAC, the total population of Cambodia would be then of 8.820.766 inhabitants. But, in 1992, the World Bank, being also based on investigations in all Cambodian provinces, gave the figure of 9,001,315 inhabitants.

However, if one looks once again on the study of J. Nepote, but with an annual average growth of 2.2%, without new Vietnamese "immigrations " and minus the 450,000 died from 1979 to 1989, the total population of Cambodia would not exceed 6,050,000 inhabitants at the end of 1992, that is to say 2,950,000 less than the 9 millions found by the international organizations. During the period 1993-2003, with a growth rate became "normal", that is to say of 2.6%, the total population of Cambodia should not exceed 8,024,000 in 2003. But, in 2003, the Cambodia Ministry for the Interior provides the figure of the total population of Cambodia of 13,124,000 inhabitants. A source (anonymous) of the same Ministry let us know that the number of Vietnamese's in Cambodia is currently approximately 3,300,000, from which 1,200,000 are holders of Cambodian voter registration cards. These figures do not contradict the theoretical estimates above; although in our opinion they are still below the reality. We estimate that in 25 years (from 1979 to 2004) the Vietnamese settlers in Cambodia are between 4.0 and 4.5 million, that is to say between 30% and 35% of the total population, not 5% as it was affirmed by the Cambodian Government. The danger for Cambodia is that, as during French Protectorate, several thousands of people being Vietnamese origin exert (from 1979 and thereafter) functions of senior executive and staff in all the fields of the Cambodian Administration, while the Vietnamese settlers have the full privilege to be established in the richest areas and the strategic places of the country.

In the past as well as today, the Vietnamese immigration in Cambodia is never 'a normal demographic movement of an overpopulated country towards the close country less populated' as the high ranking leaders of the CPP explain it publicly. The Vietnamese conquest of Kampuchea Krom began with a massive and progressive colonization country, regularly supported by the forces of the Empire of Annam, then by the French colonial Power of Cochinchina, until the Khmers become themselves minority in their own territory. Today, the immigration of the Vietnamese's in Cambodia is an fully act of colonization and progressive vietnamization of what remains of Kampuchea.

ps China is not only wanting to take over Cambodia, and Vietnam...it also wants to get its grubby hands on Taiwan as well...it did say that it is only a matter of time before if can fulfill its wishes and then Laos will be after that...

so dont judge by what you see on the screen but doing extra research...i did and i was very appalled by what i read!

[AhmekKhmer]

This is Cambodia

[OneMoreChristian]

Atm the VC are more than inclined to please their big brother the Chinese...at the moment the Chinese want to infiltrate Cambodia but using the Vietnamese to do it...the VC are nothing but victims of bullying.

The whole root of the matter is the Chinese...however they do not want the world to perceive them as bullies so they influence little countries like VN to get what they want!

[AhmekKhmer]

Ain't you from China anyway?

@OneMoreChristian You are having a big mouth. We are watching you no matter what. Vietnamese has been trying to swallow Cambodia and Laos. It doesn't matter what you say, Chinese Communist, and whatever!. We have read and heard about you Vietnam. You can not make Cambodians/Khmer people be scared. Yes, Cambodian people are scared, but they have already know. Every word you say or said nicely and positively, it doesn't matter. You are the one who started dirty war and secret plan in the world.

The Truths:  Cambodian Americans are the poorest and least successful asian in US. Cambodia is the poorest country in asia.

The causes:

Whining and complaining ( '' the Yuons and the Thais do this and that to us, they stole this and that from us'')

Cambodians people have to move on and look toward the future not the past. Stop complaining about something that happen 100 to 300 years ago.

Vietnamese are like scums that grows on your back, you can't never get rid of it. You clean it once, it'll grow back, you clean it twice, it'll grow more than before. Unless you cut your own back and burn with it.
