Cambodian Children and CCH - Part 2

A short documentary about the effects of the Khmer Rouge 30 years after their regime, and it's effects on the Cambodian society, especially the children. The children, some of them orphans, live, eat, and work in the municipal dump of Phnom Penh. One orphanage, the Center for Children's Happiness, run by a man that was himself orphaned by the Khmer Rouge, rescues these children, in hopes of giving them a better life.

In a word - Nothing

[victhom19]

this made me tear up. I am cambodian living in Australia. My parents fled the pol pot regime a long time ago. I've been back to cambodia twice and i see thebeauty of my heritage but also the poverty. I would love to do something in the future if i ever become rich - i would love to make a difference to those that need it the most. It is one of my goals to spread the happiness to those back there - i wish i could do it now.

I visited CCH last November 2007. I got to meet Soka and his wife and Ravut from the video. My cousin is Marc Gold. Anyway...if you get a chance..check out my video of a visit to a different orphanage.

I really liked your video.

I feel so much for the children. This world is terrible and many times the children are the ones who are forgotten and suffering.

OMG! u have really touched me. I have heard of Khmer Rouge from my grandparents but i never knew that it was this bad. Please make more!

Mr. Sokha always encourage children to unlimite their dream and find who exactly they are. That is so nice. I talked to some one them and found out how different they were compare to ordinary kid.
