Son Ngoc Thanh and Sam Sary were cursed by people who support sihanouk on the song that "don't curse my sam dach ov, otherwise the lightening will strike you". I remember when I was a boy, this song was very popular due to the influence of king sihanouk.

Sihanouk is a Khmer traitor,because he let Vietcong use Khmer territory to fight with South Vietnam.
The year of 1970,he asked Vietcong to invade Cambodia and killed Khmer citizens and Khmer republic regime.
He is a greedy power,wants to preserve monarchy.
Cambodia,now, is a province of Vietnam.
So, go to hell Sihanouk.

Dr Son Ngoc Thanh is a real hero, whatever his name because he was born in Vietnam. Don't be silly about the name. Pol Pot has changed his name and a lot of Khmer Rouge people who have changed to real Khmer name such as Kaing Guech Eav called Duch.
you need to be positive and support people who work for Khmer's interests.

May Dr son and his sister rest in peace.

I feel excited to see her picture with Angkorwat.

I came to understand that if a real patriot, wherever they stay or live they always serve the country faithfully.

May her soul rest in peace!
