Do We Have Pride to Be Born As Khmer?



Meas Srey Has Pride to be Born as Khmer

Monday, June 21, 2010
Op-Ed by Khmer Borann

When you are visiting Preah Vihear temple, you will see a big billboard with the writing in Khmer and English ‘We have Pride to Be Born as Khmer’. It is not known who planted this billboard near Preah Vihear temple. But the locals in the area said the Khmer authority has planted the billboard. Regardless of who planted it, the billboard is a mean to remind all Khmers that we are a nation that has dignity and pride and we have to love and protect Khmer land.

The slogan ‘We have Pride to Be Born as Khmer’ is a very good patriotic reminder for Khmers. This slogan is also coincident the provisions in the Constitution of the Kingdom of Cambodia, like Article 49 which says: All Khmer citizens shall have the duty to take part in the national reconstruction and to defend the homeland. To have pride to be born as Khmer means to have pride to love Khmer land and to protect Khmer land.

Do Meas Srey and Prom Chea, Khmer farmers in Svay Rieng who are being imprisioned by Hun Sen court for protecting Khmer land from Yuon encroachment, have pride to be born as Khmer? I think, of course, Mrs. Meas Srey and Mr. Prom Chea have pride to be born as Khmer and that’s why they risk their lives to protect their rice fields which are located on Khmer land. I think other Khmers also have pride to be born as Khmer such as Khmer soldiers who fight against Thai aggression on the Khmer-Thai border.

How about the Cambodian officials who jail Mrs. Meas Srey and Mr. Prom Chea? Do they have the pride to be born as Khmer? If they have pride to be born as Khmer, why they imprison Khmers who dare to protect Khmer land? What Hun Sen government is doing to Khmers people regarding the defending national border is just a mockery to the slogan ‘We have Pride to Be Born as Khmer’.

Do you have pride to be born as Khmer when Khmer leaders jail their people because they protect Khmer land?

Pride is Pride.. Don't walk around talking too much about it or it becomes an act of ignorance, arrogance, cockiness, or flamboyant just for whatever race you are! Show more positivity and become more of an active samaritan, then others will see the positive aspects of your culture and race, rather than the continuous Vietnamese oppressions and land and border encroachments.

The more Pride you have the more other countries will step all over you. The next Khmer generations living in Cambodia internally live without the awareness of the oppression of the Vietnamese, for most will be Chinese & Vietnamese descents born on Cambodian land/soil claiming Khmer Pride obnoxiously.

Since most of Khmer are unquestionally still grateful of Youn's invasion, therefore they kinda have a little careless mentality of Youn continuously taking same land, but if Siem does the same thing they would be emotionally patriotical madness. Can the cardbroad be posted on the Eastern border?

"Pride to born as Khmer" is phrase or qoute taken from a stone incription discovered. It was it was from Jayvarman VII's quote if I'm not mistaken.

An overwhelming of Puok Ah refugees are uncultured and un-Cambodians-- most cases, are uncivilized-- because they're either Cambodian or Cambodian-American'ts.

Of course I am very proud to be born as one of the decent Khmers who have and will never harm my compatriots. Just as 12:30AM said, if you brag too much like Hun Xen always does, you cheapen yourself. And Khmer people who are the victims this regime must be very aware that the most dangerous and wildest animals that can keep harming them all are Hun Xen and his traitorous comrades. These Khmers are olny Khmers in fles and bloob, but their heads are fully stuffed with Younism or Yuons' brains. Never be loyal to them!!!

គឹពិតមែនហើយ យើងមានមោទនភាពដែលកើត
មកជាខ្មែរ។
តែខ្មែរក៍មិនត្រូវដើរសំអុយកេរ្តិ៍ឈ្មោះខ្មែរ
តាមក្រៅប្រទេសដូចពួកសត្វចចកដែលខ្វៈគតិ
និងខួរក្បាលនោះទេ។
កាលពីប្រជាជនកំពុងត្រូវក្រុមយោធាប៉ុល ពត
សំពោងក្បាលនឹងចបកាប់ ពួកសត្វចចកមិនដែល
អើតមុខជិតទល់ដែនបន្តិចសោះ ដោយសំងំស៊ី
នំប៉័ង និង បឿរ នៅបរទេស។
ដល់ស្រុកបានសុខសាន្ត ទើបលេចមុខ ចចក អួតខ្លួនស្រឡាញ់ប្រជាជន និងការពារ ប្រជាជន។

When the pride goes up to the sky, the fall for sure will come upon he who lives by and with it.
How ignorant you are !!! you do not heed any teaching from Buddha" you claim pridefully you are Buddhist. But you do not seek to know knowledge from any Buddhas, let alone from God and Jesus.So why Khmer nation perish. There no other cause more evident than this.
your words stink with arrogance and pride.
If you alone perish no one will care. But God care for his people that you lead into hell.

Proud to be born as Khmer? This phrase is only good for yuon slave CPP. How can you be proud of a nation whose leaders are blindly serving yuon and they are selling any piece of land when there is market for it without taking the intersts of the poors into account? When your land is confiscated by your own government to give to yuon or to sell to private investment, can you still say that you are proud to be born as Khmer?

What about the numerous ethnic minorities that have also called this land their home for centuries and are Cambodian citizens? Why can't we be proud to be Cambodian?

Anonymous said...

I think Khmer and Cambodian is the same; it is interchangable! Like Cambodia, Srok Khmer, Prates Khmer it is the same! So the minorities such as Phnong, Jarai, Tumpuon, Stieng are also have the pride to be born as Khmer or as Cambodian!

Pride to be born as Khmer have northing to do with the political parties or other Khmer ethnics.
All Khmer or Cambodian live around the world are very proud as Khmer descent.

The CPP will die soon! Ah Chea Sim is going to die soon because his wife is waiting him in the hell. His wife need his cock so the King of the Death will call Chea Sim to the hellsoon! Also Ah Hun Xen will die soon! You see, Om Yin Tieng has aleady made the statue for Hun Sen. This means that Hun Sen is going to die soon! And you see, last week Hun Sen was ill and could not meet Subya Subedi. So he is going to go to the hell soon.

Hey, idiots, cut the political rhetoric, chitchat, and other BS, and cut to the chase. The bottom line here is that your leaders are losing grips and on the precipice of falling into hell. Both of you and the rest of your clans should be proud and glad that the CPP is leading the way.

Pi Anh,

You're an idiot just like your CPP leader.

Any fair-minded leader would not only welcome criticism but try to look at those criticism objectively. Your boss thinks he knows it all, a narcissist, very bad for the country.

By the way I am no fan of Sam Rainsy either.

There isn't any Cambodian leader on the horizon that I can think highly of.

Sorry.
