A message to all Khmer Krom Brothers and Sisters

Unofficial translation from Khmer

To all Presidents of Khmer Krom Associations in the world,

As a Khmer son native of Khmer Kandal [current Cambodia], I would like to share with you all the commemoration of the 61st anniversary of the loss of Kampuchea Krom on 06 June. This is a very regrettable event for all Cambodians, regardless of their origin.

I am condemning the French colonialism for sneaking and turning Khmer Krom lands over to the Yuon administration in violation of Khmer rights.

Indeed this is a good day that we Khmer Krom have finally see Khmer from Cambodia recognizing that the Khmer Krom problem is not a separate problem from that of Cambodia's problem. We are one people, one nation, one ancestor and one heritage.

I am so happy to hear our Khmer Kandal waking up to our Khmer story and seeing the truth of where Cambodia is also heading right now.

Khmer Krom need your support. Stand up for yourself and stand up for us. We are Khmer!

Thank you, Lok Koeun Sam Ung,
for spreading your message of love and solidarity. We need to hear more from Khmers like you to foster a solid unity among Khmers.

Long live the Khmer Nation.

You should not condem the French. The French decided to give Kampuchea Krom to Viet cos some khmer leaders at that time voted for it.

Thank you for this letter in support of Kampuchea Krom (the Mekong Delta) 61st commemoration.

We Khmer must think like the Jewish people: No matter whatever and wherever on earth are the Jewish lands, sooner/later must be returned to its righteous owners.

Kampuchea Krom is Khmer's ancestral lands, hence Khmer always think of it and we must pass on the knowledge to our children to demand for the return.
