Another gentle reminder to send in your krama photos… Here are some relatively new members of Kramanation
The very cool, world-acclaimed Cambodia’s very own cinematographer Rithy Panh wrapped up not only in his thoughts but in a classical krama, at his Bophana Center showing how it’s done (Phnom Penh, 2010).

Also, please help to look for EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR for Don’t Think I’ve Forgotten: Cambodia’s Lost Rock and Roll – a feature-length documentary which has distributors (including one from Tribeca Film Festival) raving.

I am very proud of these compatriots who are in big favor to our Krama.
Look at the baby, isn't she gorgeous.
To my observation, I do see Hun Sen used Krama one in awhile, but do not see Hun Sen's children use Krama nor Bun Rany. They are very fond of showing their wealth, which they have been stealing from their people and nation. I can't wait to see them in Krama-clad when they go back to where they belong, once they loss the power.
That is our Khmer style that all of khmer did,we must to maintain them. Look to today building, Cambodia look like the Chinesse , Korean and Vietnammese Colonies towns. That is very sad for all khmer.
9:05PM! YOU PREFER ANKORWATT? CAVE MAN!
Some regions in Cambodia called KRAMA and the other ones called
KANSEING.Two kinds of KRAMA: Krama soth(silk)and Amboss(cotton).
Khmer men and women use Krama.They Krama to wear as cloth,put around their necks,carry things;they use
different ways or styles.
KRAMA is well-worn Khmer custom.
Correctio:They use Krama to wear as clothes,
Krama is pratical and look elegance.
Proud to be Khmer!
