10-Khmer Krom-Indigenous Peoples Human Rights Video

To Watch Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBJEkg2ttpY © SommerFilms, by Rebecca Sommer for EARTH PEOPLES. A one-hour long documentary on the Khmer Krom indigenous peoples from the Mekong Delta in Southern Vietnam. The Khmer Krom explain how they are oppressed and eliminated as a peoples. There is no freedom of speech, religion or culture. Aggressively Vietnam-ized, the Khmer Krom struggle to maintain their way of life and identity. This documentary was first screened October 1, 2006 at the City Hall in the Hague, during the symposium on the Right to Self-Determination in International Law.

thank the viet for removing the Khmer Rough? How about the Viet remove themselves from South Vietnam first? Then we thank you. You want us to thank you for liberation of another country while you sit on our own? Makes no sense. No sense whatsoever.

how can you make a comment about Khmer without know the real story? Do you think Vietnam helped Khmer? let me tell you, Vietnam killed khmer,stole Khmer's land, and did lots of bad things to khmer. Now, the our goverment is a pupet of Vietnam. The priminister is installed by Vietnam; he does every just for Vietnam interests.

Vietnam won these lands fair and square. If Khmer want the lands back then let's fight.

@sunrise3500 & all Khmer Krom (#1),

- Do you really know the reason why the eastern part of Khmer became the southern land of Vietnam in peaceful ways?

- If you really know Khmer history, can you tell me how many times Vietnamese Army helped Khmer Kings to fight against Siam (Thailand) invasion, and how many times Khmer Princes asked Vietnam Kings to help them to gain the throne?
