a slideshow of Khmer’s collective memory

WE NEED YOUR HELP !

If you would like to honor your loved ones lost during the Khmer Rouge regime (April 1975 to Jan. 1979) via my webpage www.thearyseng.com (under "Victims Association") or that of the Association of Khmer Rouge Victims (AKRVC) www.akrvc.org (currently under construction), or both, please provide the following info:
  • Photo(s) of loved ones lost
  • Names (official, nicknames etc.) and as much biographical information (date of birth, place of birth, when/where "disappeared" or killed or passed away and under what circumstances)
  • Your personal message of remembrance of loved one(s)
  • Your name (name of sender)
  • Please indicate where you would like this remembrance be posted (www.thearyseng.com/victims-association, at AKRVC, or both). Half to one-full webpage will be dedicated to your loved ones in a Survivors' Remembrance of their Loved Ones slideshow.

I heard people want to organize an organization represent the Khmerrouge Victimes!

One small purpose that sound so loud is about getting compansation as a group or and small token to organize a religion ceremony!

That sound so sad and scary to me!

Today Cambodia people kind of thinking that money can solve anything from get away from raping to muder, to accid attack!

Do we want to send a maasage that what Khmerrouge Victimes want is not justice and thruth but money? Money is more iportant than justice and life?

Mr. Chom Mey the Self called KhmerRouge Victime Who Only Dared to Loook At Duch in Eyes to Eyes, preferes some money and 50% justice!

What is 50% justice ?

Justice for the Camodian now (Since we all victimes) is the thruth of what happening! Since real thruth could never be found or not only just one thruth! we want to hear the lawyers crose exame of who saw or involve with the crime!Specially the higher
rank!

We want this process of justice to teach the next generation of how not to let the crime to be happening against from the point of view of the King down to a poor hadicape citizen!

We want notthing more thant gathering as many thruth as posible. NO money nor imprison any body! But what was wrong who did wrong, and how was wrong!


So the whole country or may be the whole world can create a system that prevent the crime of genocide to happen again any time any where else!

No MONEY for the wrong reason please! our country is corrupted to the core! They are selling justice for money and thing that for peace and forgiveness!


My relative lives can not be replaced by any money! But the thruths that help prevent the evil to strike again any where on earth!!
