Phnom Penh Thursday, 14 April 2011
“All the popular games show the abilities, close relationships and wisdom of youth.”
Cambodians nationwide rung in the Buddhist year 2555 on Thursday afternoon, ushering in the Year of the Rabbit at 1:12 pm.
The age old tradition of the new year celebration follows a Buddhist calendar and is observed in the fifth month, Khe Chet, when farming is typically finished and before the rainy season begins.
Phnom Penh’s increasingly busy streets quieted by the afternoon, as shops shuttered, families gathered and pagodas opened their gates to receive well-wishers. Police stood by to prevent holiday crimes.
“We will not allow trouble from gangsters or thieves or robbers,” Khieu Sopheak, a spokesman for the Ministry of Interior said Tuesday. “And each police post around the country is standing by to prevent these bad activities in Buddhist pagodas, entertainment sites and along the roads.”
Young men and women, boys and girls, gathered for traditional games, including a scarf toss, tug-of-war and leaf snatching. Revelers prepared for performances of music, comedy, dancing and other traditional celebrations in pagodas, public spaces or entertainment venues.
“All the popular games show the abilities, close relationships and wisdom of youth,” said Meach Pon, an adviser for Khmer traditions at the Buddhist Institute. “The meaning of the popular games is for fun.”

You are an Yuon/Viet, so that is why your words are so oppressing, invader people and communist regime.
We are not racist toward the innocence people but viets are the oppresseurs toward our people, especialy Khmer Kampuchea-Krom.
Your home land is in Hanoi but is nor in Champa country nor in Kampuchea-Krom.
Go home les viets oppresseurs !!!
Do not worry about Ms Rattan Keo,
we, khmers, will liberate our country soon from the oppresseur because those lands are our lands, our haritages, our bloods and our lives.
For 1000 years, Yuon/viet can get out of China becaue Hanoi/Tonking is Yuon/viet home/land, and why is khmer can not get out from Yuon/viet who just arrives in Sovannaphum lease than 70 years.
June 4th 1949 is a Kampuchea-Krom Lost Day. Every khmer celebrates this memory every year !
Go home Yuon/Viet !
