The Specific Expansion of Viet Nam
Another set back to the Khmer Empire was the southward expansion of the Kingdom of Vietnam. As early as 10th century, Vietnam first began its territorial expansion over the Kingdom of Champa. In early 17th century, they captured the remaining part of the territory, and the Kingdom of Champa was erased from the world map. The Chams' territory is now simply known as Central Vietnam. During the reign of Tran Anh Tong (1293-1314), Princess Huyen Tran of Vietnam was presented for marriage to the King of Champa as a trap to annex the Chams' territory.
After the arranged marriage, the annexation was completed as planned, in 1673. A similar scheme was also used against the Khmer Empire. The campaign started in 1623 and continued until they occupied the whole of Kampuchea Krom.
During the Le Dynasty 1600's, Vietnam experienced internal chaos. The Vietnamese warlords struggled for power and sought full control of Vietnam. The Trinh clan controlled the northern part of Vietnam while the Nguyen has controlled the south. Consequently, the Trinh and Nguyen wars provided the Vietnamese with opportunity to infiltrate the northeast provinces of Kampuchea Krom in the provinces such as Do Nai, Morea and Toul Ta Mauk.
In 1620, the young Khmer monarch, king Chey Chetha II (1618-1628) had fallen into the similar Vietnam's trap as that of the king of Champa in 1307. The warlord Nguyen Hi Tong (1613-1635) presented one of his exotic daughters, Princess Ngoc Van, to King Chey Chetha II for some favors . Through the Princess' intervention in 1623, the Nguyen warlord sent his representatives to ask the Court of Udong permission for the Vietnamese to conduct trade in Morea (Baria) and Prei Nokor (Saigon ), and be given custom authorities over trading. Because of marriage to the Vietnamese wife, King Chey Chetha II had no strong reasons to refuse but granted the requests. Some historians agreed that these were the covert acts intended to rob the Khmers of their rights. Later, the Court of Hue, again, used the nice guy's trick by volunteering their men to assist the Khmer authority in carrying out the policing in the areas. Some documents in Khmer history have cited that at the start of the relationship, the Court of Hue only asked to use certain areas in Prei Nokor to train their militaries for wars against the Chinese and they would be returned to the Khmer authority in 5 years. But at the death of king Chey Chetha II in 1628, the areas of Prei Nokor, Morea, Do Nai, and Toul Ta Mauk were flooded with the Vietnamese warlord . Kampong Srakartrey (Bienhoa) in 1651; Prah Suakea or Morea (Baria) in 1651; Kampong Kou (Longan) in 1669; Tuol Ta Mauk in 1696; Kampong Krabey Prei Nokor (Saigon) in 1696.
In 18 th century, Mac Cuu a Chinese who received a permission from Ang Eum (1710-22) to con- trol the province of Peam (Hatien), Kramounsar (Rachgia) and Koh Tral ( Phu Quoc island ) in 1722. The provinces of Mesar (Mytho), Kampong Reussey (Bentre), Koh Gong (Gocong) and Peam Ba-rach ( Long Xuyen) were lost to Vietnam in 1732. Phsar Dek (Sadec), Long Ho (Vinhlong), Mot Chrouk (Chaudoc) in 1757, Raung Damrey (Tayninh) in 1770, Prek Reussey (Cantho) in 1758. The provinces of Preah Trapeang (Travinh), Khleang ( Soctrang), Pol Leav (Baclieu), and Teuk Khmao (Camau) were siezed in 1775 and until 18th century our motherland Kampuchea Krom was totally controlled by the Vietnamese 1840.
It is not still too late to fight the Yuon lackeys.

Colonization of Preah Trapeang
During the Tay Son uprising (1779-1796), the Srok of Preah Trapeang had given asylum to the fugitive Vietnamese Emperor Gia Long so that he could reconstitute forces against his own warlord Tay Son. King Ang Eng (1779-96) of the Khmer Empire had also provided a military support to this Vietnamese Emperor as a gesture of a good neighbor. However, after regained throne of Annam from the Tay Son, Gia Long arbitrarily turned the Srok Preah Trapeang into a Vietnamese colony.
During his dynasty (1802-19), king Gia Long started an irrigation project in the Province of Mot Chrouk (Chaudoc). Thousands of the Khmer Krom were forced to dig a canal named Chum Nik Prek Teng (Vinh Te), 53 kilometers long and 25 meters wide, from Bassac River to the Gulf of Siam. During this forced labor project from 1813-1820, many thousands of the Khmer Krom were killed. In one particular instance the Khmer workers were buried alive so that the Vietnamese soldiers could use their heads as stove stands to boil water for tea for their Vietnamese masters. The phrase "Be careful not to spill the masters'Tea" is still well reminded to there Children by all Khmer Krom parents or grandparents.
Before the Canal Project well done, Annamite soldiers held khmer laborers into Pillories, each fillory contained about 20-40 people (they said to prevent Khmer laborers run away from mobilization),at least from 2-5 thousand were locked in pillories located in the canal; the dam was opened, water filled the canal, all Khmer laborers were drowned, no one was survive. (Listen to the Te Ong Anussa´s song that means the Master´s Tea Memo).

The Legacy of Oknha Son Kuy
During the reign of King Thieu Tri (1841- 47), the Khmer Krom were harshly forced to abandon their Buddhist religion, custom, tradition, and language. Oknha Son Kuy (also known as Chavay Kuy), Governor of the Srok of Preah Trapeang, had to give up his life in exchange for those rights. The Vietnamese Court of Hue recognized the facts and agreed to have the imposition lifted. When Oknha Son Kuy as beheaded in 1841, people rose up against the Vietnamese through out the country. The Khmer Krom had to stand alone and faced severely retaliations without any supports from King Ang Doung (1840-59) of the Khmer Empire. The body of SON KUY was buried in the capital seat of the Preah Trapeang (Travinh), and his tomb is still standing in Bodhisalaraj Kampong) temple until today.

htCambodia's king approves controversial treaty with Vietnam
First posted 02:26am (Mla time) Dec 01, 2005
Associated Press
PHNOM PENH -- Cambodia's king said Wednesday he has approved a border treaty that Prime Minister Hun Sen signed with Vietnamese leaders in October, and that critics say handed Cambodian land to its communist neighbor.
King Norodom Sihamoni said in a statement that he signed off on the agreement for the sake of maintaining the "peace and stability of our nation."
Sihamoni said he had been paid visits by Hun Sen as well as Prince Norodom Ranariddh, who is president of the National Assembly, and other high-ranking Cambodian politicians, who convinced him the treaty was legal.
Hun Sen also assured Sihamoni that the kingdom had suffered no loss of territory with the agreement.
A heated political controversy erupted after Hun Sen signed the pact during his visit to Vietnam in October. Many critics have alleged that, under the agreement, Hun Sen relinquished to Vietnam land that should have belonged to Cambodia.
The prime minister has dismissed the allegations, and has sued at least six Cambodians for criminal defamation, saying they falsely accused him and his government.
Two of them -- a radio station director and a union leader -- are in jail pending trial. Four others have fled the country.
Retired King Norodom Sihanouk, Sihamoni's father, has called the treaty "illegal."
The former monarch, in a statement posted on his official Web site Monday, tried to shield his son from any responsibility over the issue, saying that it was the government and legislature -- which has voted in approval of the treaty -- that are "100 percent responsible" for the country's territorial state.
Border issues are a passionate subject for many Cambodians, who have seen the vast territory once ruled by their ancient Angkor Empire swallowed up over the centuries by larger neighbors Vietnam and Thailand.
The Vietnam border is especially contentious, since Hanoi's troops occupied Cambodia for a decade after toppling the Khmer Rouge regime in 1979. Hun Sen was foreign minister under the Vietnamese-installed communist government in the 1980s, and then prime minister.

CAMBODGE • La justice a bien du mal à s'exprimer
Même si cinq dirigeants importants des Khmers rouges ont finalement été arrêtés pour être jugés, la journaliste et écrivaine Elizabeth Becker souligne que l'impunité dont ces individus ont bénéficié pendant trente ans a eu une bien mauvaise influence sur la société cambodgienne.
Le 12 novembre dernier, la police a débarqué dans une villa pour y arrêter Ieng Sary et son épouse Ieng Thirith, expliquant en détail la procédure judiciaire à ces deux dirigeants Khmers rouges vieillissants. Près de trente ans se sont écoulés depuis le renversement du régime génocidaire auxquels ils ont participé et qui a coûté la vie à 1,7 million de Cambodgiens entre 1975 et 1979. Pourtant, personne n'a eu à répondre de l'un des pires crimes contre l'humanité du XXe siècle. Pol Pot, le chef des Khmers rouges, est mort libre en 1998. Ieng Sary, qui fut ministre des Affaires étrangères, et Ieng Thirith, ancienne ministre aux Affaires sociales, tous deux de proches collaborateurs de Pol Pot, ont vécu librement en vertu d'une amnistie qui leur avait été accordée en 1996 par le roi d'alors Norodom Sihanouk – et qui sera très probablement levée à l'occasion de leur procès pour crimes contre l'humanité. Ils font partie des cinq responsables Khmers rouges à être jugés par le tribunal spécial mis en place avec le soutien des Nations unies. Cette cour vient de tenir sa première séance publique pour statuer sur la demande de remise en liberté d'un des coaccusés, directeur de la prison S21.
Toutefois, ces procès arrivent bien trop tard. Des décennies d'impunité ont profondément marqué les comportements de la population à l'égard de la loi et de la justice.
En tant que journaliste, j'avais couvert l'ascension des Khmers rouges, et passé deux semaines très éprouvantes au Cambodge durant leur régime. [Durant ce voyage, le journaliste britannique Malcolm Caldwell avait été tué dans des circonstances qui restent inexpliquées.] Par la suite, je fus terrifiée par l'habileté des dirigeants à éviter les poursuites. Pourtant les preuves contre eux ne manquaient pas. Mais dans les derniers jours de la guerre froide, la Chine et les Etats-Unis avaient besoin des Khmers rouges pour faire face à l'Union soviétique. Ensuite, le régime de Hun Sen, ancien petit chef des Khmers rouges, s'est opposé à un procès, affirmant qu'il était inutile de rouvrir de vieilles blessures.
Du fait de ce passé si marqué par le mépris du droit, il sera très difficile de rendre justice lors du procès à venir, et plus difficile encore d'en faire un événement qui améliore la société cambodgienne. Dans le Cambodge d'aujourd'hui, la justice se vend au plus offrant. Voilà pourquoi le tribunal spécial [dont le nom officiel est Chambres extraordinaires au sein des tribunaux cambodgiens (CEC)] qui juge les Khmers rouges suit la procédure cambodgienne, laquelle a été adaptée pour suivre les normes internationales, et la majorité des juges et des avocats sont cambodgiens. C'était le seul moyen de faire accepter au gouvernement la perspective de ces procès. Robert Petit, le co-procureur étranger, reconnaît que le droit cambodgien est "très approximatif". Il s'inquiète par ailleurs de la perception de ces procès au Cambodge. Car le tribunal ne jugera que les plus hauts responsables du régime encore en vie, et les Cambodgiens ne sauront jamais qui précisément a tué leurs proches, pas plus qu'ils ne recevront de compensation.
Les Cambodgiens nés après le régime des Khmers rouges estiment toutefois que ces procès pourraient les aider à mieux comprendre l'histoire de leur pays. Il y a pour eux un lien direct entre la corruption qu'ils constatent au quotidien et le silence et les demi-vérités qu'on leur a racontées sur les Khmers rouges. "Le peuple khmer doit savoir ce qui est juste et ce qui ne l'est pas. Et cela commence par les responsables du génocide : Pol Pot, Ieng Sary, Khieu Samphan", affirme Solyn Seng, une jeune diplômée en comptabilité de la meilleure école de commerce du pays. Sa camarade de classe Chirattana Leng, diplômée en finances, estime qu'un tribunal efficace "montrerait au monde qu'il peut y avoir une justice au Cambodge, et cela ferait venir davantage d'investissements étrangers". Non qu'il y ait pénurie en la matière. Récemment, une conférence pour les investisseurs étrangers a fait salle comble, l'assistance devant rester debout. Car tout le monde sait que le Cambodge a une main-d'œuvre bon marché et une pléthore de terrains inutilisés. Reste que l'essentiel de ces nouvelles richesses parte directement dans les poches d'un petit groupe proche du régime. Ces individus ont d'ores et déjà rasé un tiers des forêts, chassé d'innombrables paysans de leurs terres pour faire place à d'immenses plantations qui produisent caoutchouc et huile de palme et ils ont exproprié des propriétaires pauvres pour bâtir de nouveaux immeubles.
Et lorsque certains de ces paysans ou citadins pauvres ont plaidé leur cause en justice, ils ont presque systématiquement perdu. Telle est la chaîne ininterrompue de l'impunité au Cambodge.
Puisque les Khmers rouges n'ont pas eu à rendre de comptes pour la mort de près de 2 millions de personnes, il n'est guère surprenant que leurs successeurs se comportent comme si la loi ne les concernait pas. Si le tribunal parvient à reconnaître coupables quelques-uns des vieux Khmers rouges, ce triste état de fait pourrait enfin commencer à changer.
