Has anyone spotted the Shao Lin fighters who have had a bit of kung fu kicking lately at the Khmer Krom demonstration?

Cambodia people must be converted from peaceful Buddhism to militan Buddhism for the survival of the Khmer Nation!!!!

Cambodian people must give their peaceful way of living and they need to take action to change their life because nobody in the world would give a fuck about them include the Vietcong and the Thaicong!!!

To 9:02 dumb ass!

What? Cambodian had never been converted to militan Buddhist!!!
Do you see any major arm factories in Cambodia? Of course not! Do you see any Cambodian scientists working on rocket or missiles? Of course not! Do you see Cambodia has any modern battleships, submarines,and jet fighters,... Of course not!!!!This is the fucken reason why it is not working in the first place!!!!So what Cambodian can be militan but no weapon doesn't mean a damn thing!!!!

By the way, the reason Cambodia become such a small country in Indochina because of the Vietcong and the Thaicong and other...Of course thank to the Mongol for pushing all these Vietcong and Thaicong down to Cambodia!!!!ahahah

Oh don't forget the French for handing a large chunk of Cambodian land to the Viet because the French love how the Viet women suck their dick!!!!!!!

Traditionally the Vietcong and the Thaicong always outnumber Cambodia in term of population which can create more standing army!!!!But now in the 21th century, a large standing army doesn't mean a damn thing!!!!The smart bombs, laser guided missle,and the predators will put all these large standing army on the run!!!!One smart army equiped with the best weapons can defeat poorly equiped uneducated army in hundred and thousand!!!

Oh! There is also a big gun called the Nuke!!!ahahhahhahhahahh

Cambodia have no choice except to modernize and arm themselves with the best weapon money can buy and provide the best education for military personnel to be effective fighting force!!!

Militant Buddhism or Buddhist Protestantism? We should remind ourselves of our greatest King, Jayavaraman VII, who was a Mahayana, and not Hinayana, Buddhist. Our current Buddhism is not real Buddhism. It's more Hindu-Buddhism dominated by Hindu rituals. A switch to Mahayana Buddhism might make us less fatalistic, more positive and more proactive, investing more in the improvement of life in this world rather than in the next. Anyway, Cambodia needs new ideas.

True, but keep in mind, Dr Lao,
that "new idea" don't come in one
flavor. There are "bad new ideas",
and there are "good new ideas".
