The Khmer Kampuchea Krom Human Rights Organization has asked state media to broadcast programs surrounding the history of the minority people and their culture and the Ministery of Education to insert the group's history into school curriculum.
Without the dissemination of this information, Khmer Krom minorities are at risk of rights violations, said Ang Chanrith, executive director of the rights organization.
Chea Se, undersecretary of state for the Education Ministry, said he supported educating people on Cambodian history, and the history of the world, and a request from the group would be discussed.
Government spokesman Khieu Kanharith said Thursday the group should not rely on the state to promote its message, but can publish its own literature.

Mr. Kanharith,
I applauded your integrity as a Khmer desendant. I hope all politician know who they are and why were they elected to the office. To serve and honor khmer people in as high regards with full integrity and sovereignty.
We'll considered it when Ah Khmer-Yuon stop being such a babies.
Why on earth would you use the word Ah in front of Khemr. Are you Cambodian also? Come on dude get real. Stop being uneducate with that comments you had. Be more professional is the way to get respect bro. Khmer all the way. Btw, they are not Khmer-Youn like you think. They are real Khmer except they illegally transfer to YOUN by the French with unjust. You need to learn more about Cambodian history. And stop calling our brothers like you are calling. You are the one that looking down our own race.
khmer krom, can not forget your history. please continue to help keep khmer identity alive and strong. god bless khmer krom people.

This is for the first time in Cambodian history that AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave government spokesman AH Khieu Kanharith dare to say such thing as to allow Khmer people to write their history without risking themselves in jail?
I remembered when Mr. Khamboly Dy wrote Cambodian history book about the Khmer Rouge committing the genocide against Cambodian people which Mr. Hun Sen was part of the Khmer Rouge movement and Mr. Hun Sen rejected Mr. Khamboly Dy Cambodian history book by labeling as unsuitable for use in the classroom!
8:58, we Khmer used "Ah" a lot, for instant, An Nis, Ah Nouh, Ah Poch, Ah Tom, Ah Touch....
Furthermore, "Ah" is sort of an "a", "an", "the" in English except we applied it to name of person instead of a noun.
But don't use in front of Ah-Khmer. You can use on person's name, but not in front of Khmer. Thats what I meant.
Tell you all what, Khmer never forget the bitterness history of transferring our lands illegaly to the YOUN. I heard the Khmer Krom can sense and see their destination really coming close. Who knows, after Kosovo might be Khmer Krom emerge as a nation. Jayo! Khmer Krom. May Lord Buddha bless all of you.
They (CPP) doing this because they want to appease the Cambodian people thats being patriotic toward our lands? Regardless, what they doing. Khmer Krom is pursuing the or working toward independence anyway. We want the YOUN out from our ancester's land. Khmer lands Khmer must have the right to live on and exist. Go! Khmer Krom go.
Ah Khmer-Yuon is independent from us as Ah Khmer-Thai is. Both can do whatever they like in their countries, but we don't have to get involved if we don't wanted to. We are all independent Khmers, and we all have our own separated rights.
To 9:36AM
Oh really! Why the fucks AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave dare to deport Khmer Monk Tim Sakhorn to Vietname to be judged by the Vietcong court and to be jailed in the Vietcong prison? Why? What right does AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave has regarding Khmer people individual right? Oh! I kept forgetting that AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave is a dictator and he doesn’t give a fuck about any Khmer people right!
That is the stupidest question du jour, 10:54.
First) Ah Sakhorn is not a native citizen. He was born in Vietnam.
Second) We provided shelter for him here, and he thanks us by using our land to provoke war with Vietnam.
That is a "No No" or "No can do". Anyone from vietnam who do that again will be subjected to the same treatment again.
We do not pick on any individual here. Our rules are uniform for all.
Dude 11:15AM,
You got to read the Cambodian constitution. Regardless all Khmer in Vietnam or Thailand, they are all part of cambodian citizen. YOU need to read the constitution.
Come on, mate, I read the damn constitution many times already, and I don't see crap about this.
If you see something that I missed, show us. That way, we can clear up any misunderstanding here.
Update:
From the look of what Ah Khmer-Yuon is doing in Long Beach recently. I won't hold my breath for anything as of right now.
