Cambodia's royal oxen participate in the annual ploughing ceremony in Phnom Penh May 23, 2008. The oxen will have to choose between seven bowls including rice, corn, green beans, grass, sesame, water and wine to predict the future of the farming season. The tradition, which is hundreds of years old, is followed closely by the nation's estimated 14 million people, the majority of whom are farmers. REUTERS/Chor Sokunthea

Just waste of time and money. Are you nut or coconut? Why believe the cows? There're weather satellites around the globe which can predict weather 1000% better than the cows. Why still believe old belief? No wonder Khmer never advances to the industrial country. It still lacks far behind other nation because stupid king and prime minister, Hun Kwak leading the country.
When you have stupid kwak and play boy lead the country, there will be a disaster going to happen.

Thailand is sitting on active faults which could cause a powerful earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale or more, a seminar was told yesterday. Panithan Lakkhunaprasit, of Chulalongkorn University which organised the seminar, said layers of soft sediment from the Chao Phraya river would increase the severity of the tremors fourfold in Bangkok. Referring to the recent earthquake in China, he said many were crushed when buildings collapsed.

Oh good, I hope the damn oxen is right, but nonetheless, we must continue to expand our irrigation and reservoirs until we'll become one of the world leading rice exporters.

this is one of my favorite national holiday of cambodia. it is ancient ceremony and very colorful. it's good to preserve this kind of celebration as it is uniquely khmer and was copied by thai, of course. bu i like the cambodian one better for we are more genuine, more realistic, mor original than thai one. cambodia is truly blessed by god the almighty, and cambodia is in the midst of renaissance. god bless cambodia, my beautiful country.
I bet no one believe the animal,after all what do they know ?, but it's better to preserve our culture and heritage.This ceremony is unique as khmer's .In the West ,chidren believed in Santa claus, does he exist ?no ,but christmas is one of the best holiday ever.
To 11:32
You are really such a waste. We never believe in animals. However, this event is not about an animal; it is all about traditional. You have been brain washed by your stupid boss USA. Get out from Cambodia...dude...
Most of oversea people think that they are super; Indeed, some of them are just a crab...
it is not just a tradition. there are 90% if not more are uneducated. this occasion is influantial.
This is an old tradition of Cambodia and Thailand. The Youn have no tradition like Cambodia and Thailand who share the same culture that is why 11:32 PM spoke ill about the tradition of other countries.
Many Cambodian oversea when they visited their relatives in Cambodia they acted like they are millionnaire or they are Donald Trump. They look down on our culture in Cambodia and think we are nothing.
Some braggart talk like this 11:32 PM.
