1:08PM--And what in Asia isn't westernized? Mainland China is. Vietnam is. etc. etc. etc. Countries like the People's Republic of China and Vietnam depends on the west. Those countries are perhaps way more influenced by the west than Cambodia is.

Yes, East and West do have to depend on each other for trade, but not for culture and heritage. That is out of the question, 1:18.

I won't be surprise when the westerner influence is too overwhelming here. All they do is talk about fuck and suck like in the west. Forget about education, forget about the future of the country, just pretend to be rich like the west.
