Most Khmer people do not understand many things that happen outside of Cambodia. I know a lot of children of rich and powerful people who come to America to study ESL (English as a Second Language). When they go back to Cambodia, they tell everyone that they earned a Master's degree, and everyone believe them.
In Cambodia, what count is can you get a jobs done or can you do the job? Degree or no degree make no difference here. We can't afford to be stylish here, at the moment.
Of course this is not true in the West; so if you live in the west, ignore what I said, hehehe.
Applaud SR and SRP MPs, activists for their action in front of Burmese Embassy in Cambodia.
Cambodian Buddhist highest institution ought to follow or take a lead.
When Buddhist communist is weak in another, it will affect the Khmers as well.
People with higher education tend to have a good job in Cambodia. but the worst senario is the QUALITY OF UNI. in PP, Bloody hell, top ranked government officers have got Master, PhD etc while they do not have first degree(high school) yet. BIG MISTAKE and DANGEROUS! This is not different from 1975-1979 when they allow uneducated people to lead.
GOOD work SR and its MPs!
Burmese gov. will fail soon! go to hell junta!
Well, people with real Master from the west has Lost the Civil War to KR in just 5 short years (1970-1975). Who the hell would want that to govern our country. You got to be out of your mind.
