The Phnom Penh Post
The government has offered Cambodian citizenship to four Thai nationals by royal decree dated July 14 and signed by King Norodom Sihamoni. A 1996 Law on Nationality states that foreigners can apply for nationalisation only if they have good morality, a clean criminal record and have lived in Cambodia for the past seven years at a permanent address and are able to speak and write Khmer. A Thai embassy spokesman in Phnom Penh said that he has not yet received any information on the Thai nationals being offered citizenship.

Send them to fight the thai invaders at the border as a test for citizenship.
funny.. 9:08PM That's a good idea.
Well if we were in the 15th century.
Why use violence?
Lifes are so precious.
If CPP stop lie to us.
We should go directly to the UN.
Well CPP turn and turn around to
make cambodians forget the case.
good luck Cambodia

sometime feel so sad because some of our leaders are handycap. yuon and siam changed their heart. So that they are negative. ( Most of them get married with yuon or siam).
All of those descendant from Khmer are Khmer Citizen and do not mater where they live, how many generation they were away live under foreign occupation or not. We are one, we are brothers and sisters, and WE ARE KHMER! Long Live KHMER!
Did Hun Sen give Cambodian citizen ship to Sihamoni and his mother?
Congratulation to receive Khmer citizens. You'll be proud of your new country and defend it from Youn aggression. It's good to give citizenship to Thai, but not to Hanoi.
Khmer US in DC.
The for Thais are: Thaksin, Samak, Noppadon, Boonsang.
Buhmibol is still on the waiting list.
Also we urge all the criminals in Cambodia to have Thai or Viet citizenship.
Hey king make sure get some money to help you poor father!
With Bumibol on the wating list you are sure to make a lot of cash.
Khmer is for sale. If you have money you can, also, buy king position. Khmer will sale their parents if the price is right. I was once think very highly of Khmer, till now. What a pathetic people--lack of wisdom, integrity, and nationalistic.
Former Khmer
Former Khmer, 5:09 Am? More like pathological pathetic PAD member!
5:09 AM
So what are you now?
A full fledged asshole.
5:09 AM
So you lost your identity my boy.
Let spend a night together and try to find who you really are.
King Sihamoni.
I feel symphaty to Napadon, he should receive a Khmer(Cambodian citizenship) because only him know the law espcially int'l law better than others in Thailand.
i don't have any problem with this granting of khmer citizenship to foreigners, given they respect and know our laws and respect and love our culture and, of course, show afford to learn and speak our khmer language. bottom line, if they are good citizen with no criminal or felons background and most definitely, if they care and love cambodia as much as khmer people love our country, why not grant them khmer citizenship. plus, in today's world, it is always a good idea to be multi-lingual. of course, they have to pledge allegiance to cambodia. god bless cambodia.
Why people and the media so surprised with 4 people?
How about many Vietnamese can get citizenship easily?
One easy way to bring them to Cambodia is just bringing one by one in car, so many people thought they were boyfriend and girl friend or family. Then, they can get $1,500 easily in each case.
Korean can get citizenship as soon as they just arrive in Cambodia and bought many land. When the land price went up to the maximum price, they sold to Cambodians and they brought money home.
Hah! Hah! Hah!
this is why the rule of law in very important. as long as people can respect the local custom and laws, etc... they are all welcome to cambodia, in my opinion. god bless cambodia.
We are human being, some are good some are bad. We have the right to get a double nationality, if we are eligible for it.That can benefit both Countries.
Don't be narrow-minded. Why not accept foreigner as Khmer Citizen when they come bringing their skill and Knowledge?
I prefer my son marry a Vietnamese girl or a Thai girl, instead of Khmer girls who are daughters of corrupt CPP officials.
If Thais want to be Khmer, give it to them.
5:09, you can't fool anyone but yourself! Get lost transvesthai!
