Okay, you can look but don't buy
anything or you will get hook on
this and that. Just say, "no" to
all of offers, and also ignore
all fairy tales roumours that
they will used to try to sell you
arms and ammunitions, okay?

Also don't be surprised either if
you are invited to see their next
millitary warfare exposition
either. We all know what's that
will be about.

Fellow KI-Media readers,
Be advised that we have Viet trollers pretending to be Khmer in our hand here on KI. One typical common language of theirs is pretty much the same - calling us all SIRIKMATAKIS, and (racist) Ethiopian fleas. Another one with broken khmerEnglish portrayed himself as "KMENG WAT KNONG SROK" (my translation of that nick would be: local pagoda's thug). They are here to sabotage KI, not to intelligently argue with us...So please beware and just ignore them. We cannot be distracted by these Viet trollers. These killers Viets are specifically no different than the killers Viet behind the Killing Fields.

Stop trying to change the subject
you Ethiopians tics.

We all know you are here to sell
your stupid obsolete weapons to
us for our oil so that we will
distroyed what we have lelf, that
is why you created high tension
between Khmers, and Khmers and its
neighbors.

But unfortunately for you, you
ain't smart enough for that.

And last but not least, don't even
try to whitewash your crime against
khmer people also for burning
our country down to the ground in
the 70's. Capice?
