A burning question from a KI-Media reader: What do you, a KI-Media reader, think? Please post your comment here

Some Khmers think they can write and start to flood the internet with garbage opinion pieces that are just embarrassing, annoying, and give bad image to Khmer.

On top of that they think they are doing Khmer a service and claim to represent Khmer. I'm just speechless.

Just look at this writing by Khmerization:
http://ki-media.blogspot.com/2008/10/thailand-has-been-taught-good-lesson.html

How can Khmer gain any sympathy or support for our cause, our movement if they keep such garbage view out to the world?

Khmerization, Ki-media, Sacrava toons and all of you...what is your opinion on this?

Well, my opinion is this: Yes we should be united as one Khmer, and we should try to voice our opinion in an amicable way. We are weaker militarily than Thailand, let's face it, therefore, we must try to present our case in a very orderly and legitimate way to the international community to solve the issues should the talks breaks down. That's the big picture on the best approach Khmer can take re this crisis.

However, most KI-Media readers are ordinary citizens who follow the news with attention, and we all love our Khmer nation, and try their best to find a good solution to the crisis. But in the process, human emotion may get better of them, hence there may be some piece of writing which may be emotionally motivated. Some even discuss the role of each politicians and this sparked some insult among political supporters, but I am sure everyone means good to Khmer nation.

To me, I totally support the action taken by the Hun Sen government so far. Except the fact that Hun Sen has rejected the offer of mediation recently. I felt we should take it up, but the motive behind the decision is not within my reach, and I will wait and see what Hun Sen can achieve with the talks before I voice my opinion.

One last thing before I end my comment, can posters moderate their comments please? I find that too often vulgar and uncivilized language is used. This is not your everyday forum where you can use such language. So please moderate your comments. Thanks.

Just break a leg and take it easy. It would not be so attractive if this is only a place for re-cycled/re-posted news and political articles. The human emotion makes it a bit more real, although it is true, the language could be moderated.

It's just business for tycoon and if you don't believe wait and see. The only dead people in this conflict is Khmer. The only garbage coming out from people is their reaction to an already planned solution. Think about the weakness in Cambodia society and see how the west and east mess with their heads. If you can't figure that out the cycle of fuck up well keep coming. This world is about racism, don't bother calling them, work among yourself and the people around you and have an understanding and respect for each other,if this cannot be done, poverty, corruption and the animosity with Yuon and Siem will always be. Pay attention to world policy and trade and ever wonder why its still fucking up on the third world!!! you have an Internet go do research.

Hun Sen's government is Tribe that was been organized by Yuon-Hanoi.
Recently he had a sideshow with Siem
to hide their agenda. The fight was just the dropping of rabbits to cool down the both sides,Cambodia & Thailand.
But their games had losed a few lives of human beings.Who care ? How can we unite with the criminals like Hun Sen and his boss, Yuon-Hanoi ?
Is what we call a nation of Cambodia ?

I don't normally comments on readers' comments regarding my opinion piece because I don't want to inflame the outrage and insults further. But since KI-Media, which gives me privilege and freedom to post on their blog, invite me too, I have the honour to give my opinion. But I should use my privilege responsibly.

I, usually, am very receptive to all sorts of diverse opinions, as long as they are not vulgar and offensive, because I believe that people who commented here wanted to share their ideas and opinions, rightly or wrongly. I know that some people agree with my opinion, others just don't care, while some think it is a piece of garbage. They have the right to disagree with me. My intention in expressing my opinions is to write what I feel freely because I wanted to share.

Regarding others people's comments I don't have any advice other than to say that whatever you say please use polite and appropriate language. Vulgar and offensive language, even in reference to Thai people, will not serve our purpose. Strong opinion, as opposed to offensive language, is normal and should be acceptable to all concerned, including the Thai people. Thank you. From Khmerization

KI-MEDIA, HERE IS MY OPINION:

Author's name and email address withheld due to his or her perception that the inappropriate/negative/improper comments \damage Khmer’s pride and image.

I disagreed with anyone who advocates censorship and internet editorship or dictorship.
I disagree because as we all knew it, everyone’s level of education and education is not the same to some of the people who posted his or her comments in here. All of us are all different and reside different part of the world.
When a person wants to read Ki-Media, it implies that he or she has consented to the material posted on Ki-Media. If he or she is disagreed with the material, he or she has the option to click it out.
It is not stupid, childish, embarrassing, annoying, vulgar, and nonsense to engage, to participate, and to write one’s opinion. It is a person’s opinion, thoughts, emotion, and anticipation in n online discussion.
The bottom line is there are no rules of engagement (ROE). All of us are not trained editorial, but a random he or she who just want to express his or her sole opinion.
If a person desire to read something more of editorial, censorship, and clean news, he or she can get his or her own newspaper from reputable news media.
I read Thai’s Bangkok Post everyday and most often it is embarrassing to know that most Thai’s journalists are very bias, egoistic, self-righteous, ethnocentric, and distorted news.

I find it truer on Ki-Media about Cambodian than Bangkok Post or the Nation newspaper.

So I end by saying this, if you find it disgusting, embarrassing, and find some of the comments in here full of vulgarism; I first say that no one has invited you to this forum.
This is a mature format and if you can handle the heat, you can leave anytime.

So fuck off bitch or asshole. Leave our freedom of speech alone!!!

I don't like Khmer Kror Korm, because they murder Khmer peoples.
I DO NOT like CCP gang leader (Hun Sen) and all of his gang members, because they murder innocent Khmer peoples (Journalist, Leader of the Free Trade Union and a lot more).
I don't like people who took our land and cannot get enough.
I'm not a racist.

I think we should keep this going.

Freedom of speech.
Free speech is good for democracy in Cambodia.

Freedom of expression.
Freedom to express opinion.
Freedom to criticize our bad leaders and government.

The only way to deal with our leaders is to expose their criminal activities.

So we can discourage bad leaders from doing bad things to innocent Khmer people.

Freedom of speech is not the same as marching people to mass grave?
This is unequivocally unrelated. I say that if you failed to distinguish the different between Free Speech and the Adolf Hilter, Stalin, and Pol Pot’s massing killing; than you are unequivocally unqualified to be on this forum.
Can you quantify your statement that freedom of speech equate to Pol Pot’s mass grave? If you cannot quantify your statement, than please do not put two different meanings in the same category.

I totally agree with 4:21 and some here. Whoever ‘s opinion, whether it is express with different level, ground or with some hard emotions or difficult word to hear, so what’s , because it is unfortunately a reality of Cambodia. If some people they believe they are better educated, more polite than other or can have well control of themselves and their emotion in all situations or circumstances, I may say, good for you and keep it up if you love it but I don’t believe you can judge other as bad, worse than you because they cant do what you can.

Other thing to insist, here we don’t know who is who whether they are chen, yuons, thai, khmer or other. It is important to note that, there is kind of people who may not here to express their concerns about Khmer or Khmer interest but they are here to sew trouble, confusion, sew conflict among Khmer and harm Khmer in the name of Khmer like the Khmer rouge who kill and destroy Khmer in the name of Khmer to serve yuon interest.

I understand that the yuons, the cpp people and other kind of criminals/dictators don’t like this kind of forum because they have much to lose than to win. For Khmer and for democracy, it is important to maintain this kind of free space. It is normal to see people in conflicts of idea or opinion with one another. I can tell you that event the greatest scientist and philosophers always fight with each other (insult in their ever way) to defend their opinions and rightness. Uniform of opinion or thinking belong to robot and dictatorship.

People has right to read or not to read, non force you to come here to read these comment. If you don’t like, just leave out. No one will shoot at your head. You are free of our own act. You are at your own responsibility. Although I may argue to avoid displaced and unnecessary insults and vulgar language. It is also to mention that, like the word “racism” the word insult or vulgar are varied from one person to other. For example, for yuons, all are racists, people and things, as long as you talk about its crimes and atrocities committed against other. So………………

well educated people also visited this blog. It should leave as it is, a freedom of expression forum. I was annoyed, however that some people (Khmer or VN or T) just tried to comment on general things unrelated to the news and to insult others without accepting the facts. Also, we call ourself a nation of dignity, but words used here are unacceptable such as A Kvak, and other words with "A". Pls also write the correct spelling of a person's name because history would record it wrongly. We hate Thai extremists for faking the stories, but here it's similar. 100 yrs from now, who knows

Even the name Khmer Intelligence here does not make sense - there is nothing here that is scholarly or intelligent - but it is a forum where the blog creator picks and selects news (and even adds biased, edited titles/headers)that fit his/her political agenda.


For 4:32 PM, what kind of dug did you take before you wrote that comment? Why did you equate freedom of speech to Pol Pot's "freedom" to kill people?

Although I believe in everyone having the right to speak, I also do judge people's intelligence level by the meaning of their speeches/comments.

I believe the comment section in K-I and the comments which were posted within are essential to Khmer whether they are residing inside Cambodia or abroad. And, I do not believe that those comments will reflect badly upon the Khmer in general. Human beings, whether they are Khmer or other races, as we should all know--are not uniformly made. Thus, their mental behaviors should not be expected to be operating in an orderly manner.

The comments are essential (whether they are well written or not) because I believe that those comments are freely given, and those comments reflect the feeling of the moment. Also, Those sometimes in-apriopriate comments reveals many other things that we might not have thought of. Among them, it reveals the deep psychological divide among khmer.

To correct the psychological divide, we might be first come to an agreement collectively on the terms which we use to describe ourselves. We should begin with the term Khmer, Cambodian, Kampuchean, etc.. In the olden days our father or grandfather often said, when they tried to solve internal conflict,.."we are Khmer, and have the same blood..." How true is this statement today? Does it still applies?

Once a collective agreement on the term we use to describe ourselves is established and generally agreed to, then we should talk about how Khmer represent themselves in the larger arena.

What has buddism taught us? Has Southeast Asian communtities stopped the practice of buddha's teaching? A wise man observance & concluded that "Happiness is man's prerogative. He seeks it and each man is equally entitled to his pursuits of happiness; no man seeks misery. Justice and equality belong to man's prerogatives too, but these should derive their practice form altruism and should not have been corroded by the stations of power and wealth. To build such an altruistic motivation so that justice and equality may co-esist, the creation of a staunch moral fabric for the social environement is a prerequisite". Dalai Lama.

For my love of Cambodia, I will continue to express my opinion whether anybody like it or not! Beside to be a real human, people must be able to express themselves whether it is through writing, through drawing, or through talking...

Is there any freedom of cursing? I think freedom of speech is very important but it should not be to emotional. You may see in mature democratic countries like US and Japan, people don't like to curse or insult each other if just they have different political side or idea. So there are less people hate or fear each other and whoever win the election, there is no blame for the one who vote.
I think we won't lost any freedom just we talk a bit more polite.

Southeast Asia. The historic peoples of SE Asia began arriving some 2,500 years ago from China and Tibet, displacing scattered aborigines. Their agriculture relied on rice and yams. Indian cultural influences were strongest; literacy and Hindu and Buddhist ideas followed the S India-China trade route. From the S tip of Indochina, the kingdom of Funan (1st-7th cent.) traded as far W as Persia. It was absorbed by Chenla, itself conquered by the Khmer Empire (600-1300). The Khmers, under Hindu god-kings (Suryavarman II, 1113-c. 1150), built the monumental Angkor Wat temple center for the royal phallic cult. The Nam-Viet kingdom in Annam, dominated by China and Chinese culture for 1,000 years, emerged in the 10th cent., growing at the expense of the Khmers, who also lost ground in the NW to the new, highly organized Thai kingdom. On Sumatra, the Srivijaya Empire controlled vital sea lanes (7th to 10th cent.). A Buddhist dynasty, the Sailendras, ruled central Java (8th-9th cent.), building at Borobudur one of the largest stupas in the world.

To KI media

I do understand the concern of KI that the use of language is important for this forum. It seems wild and uneducated site or so whatever to use those language such as vulgarity. And, sometimes, I think that it is no use to just say such bad language to one another. It is more important to understand and to find better solution for any issues for our country. These are my idea that suppports KI Media. However, as far as I am concerned, this comment section is open to anybody no matter who they are Khmer, Vietnamese, or Thai eventhough it might be originally intended for khmer, I assumed. And this means that your concerns, KI Media's, do not concern any of those who are Thai or Vietnamese or Chinese except Khmer people. They will continue to use such languages because their intention is not for the sake of this forum nor Cambodia (I do not intend this to all foreigners, but some of them). And, thus KI Meia's concern will indeed affect only those who are Khmer. In contrast, they, Thais, Vietnamese, if not all, whose intention is to shake this forum would be succeeding. And, they will continue to use such language. This is the question I would like to raise for the readers and KI, particularly.

To the poster of the burning question

I assumed I understand your opinion and appreciate it, that is to win the world's sympathy or like the old words "the hot win the shallow, but the cold win the dept". But, first of all, I think your own idea is respected if you respect others'. We have different backgrounds, knowledge, and experience, and thus different points of view. And, I think your idea and Khmerization's are both good. You have your own reasons as well as Khmerization. However, the main point I would like to make is how you make a claim on other's idea. Assuming you are a Khmer, not Thai nor Vietnamese, assuming your intention is to help improve Cambodia, I think you shouldn't have writen such language like "garbage opinion" if you think you are the one who can "write" or the one who is "educated". I think the world understands it. I think the world knows that there are limits for everythig even the peace. And, I think the world understand it when Khmerization post his idea like this. But I don't think you understand it because you made such claims on other's point of view.
