Wow! She's hot.
*yes,we need to SAVE her now.Please post her phone number to all khmer in the world.
SVA KOUM LAUK YEAY
Don't be talking about my grandma.
The first picture is not Bokkator, but a long stick martial art: Kun Damborng Vaeng.
The last big piture is a REAL BOKKATOR with 2 short stick or 2 short machetes, see two samples preserved in Sala Rachana. All 2 are in ONE SCABBARD with a hand pprotective handle. By seeing you see only one knife, but taking it split into 2 short machetes.
Bokkator used 2 short sticks or 2 short machetes for self defense when a long weapon was knocked off.
In old time all soldiers have to learn this LOW STYLE Khmer Martial Art, and almost every body had one pair of short machetes.

I had learnt when I was 12 y.o a.
Som Ministère de la Culturele et des Beaux_Arts, oy lok yeay mean samnang barn jaul laeng konn HOLLYWOOD jea muoy ANGELINA JOLIE phorng,anet kuort.
Chea satrey khmer dor kamror neung jea kumrou dol satrey jumnuon kroy.
S.V.P, juoy kuort phorng, Aujourd'hui,peut-être khmère reste seulement elle.
she a great khmer lady and a role model of all khmers.I praise her from the bottom of my heart.
wow! i'm impressed with her. she's just demonstrating. of course, i bet when she was a young lady, i'ms sure she knew her stuff. don't mess with her or she'll give you a bumpy head. anyway, she looks energetic for her age, really!
just because she's old, she doesn't have to retire to her daily spirituality. in the western society, the elderly go dancing, put make-up on, sing karaoke, etc, etc... it's what makes her happy and peaceful, not what you and think of her because our opinion is irrelevant to her, you know! when i'm her age, i sure like to be as energetic as she. god bless her.
hahh...something for the weekend....

You are right. You are the only one who know clearly what is Bokator or khmer martial art :). great!
I am too pleased with her martial arts. Since i was child, i saw some old ladies in my village, performed Bokator, i am very interested in it so much, but i have not enough time to learn.
I am too sorry , i left home about 6 years to study abroad. I have had attempt to learn Khmer traditional martial arts
we should praise her, don't blame on her, you are future generations, lack of consciousness, should not look down on her.
Ki- media, release her news, address and phone number.
Chao ta
OMG, she look soo strong and healthy. I would like to meet her person. Very impress.
she's probably have more knowledge about bokator than most young whiners out there, really! they say smart people learn from the fool, the fool cannot learn from the smart. so true! god bless her for showing her skill here.
she's showing the real khmer spirit. khmer people are warriors!
i think martial art bakotar keeps her strong and energetic and fit and healthy and for all ages. good for her for having the courage to show us here. i like her, it's the spirit that counts, you know! she has a good spirit about her, unselfish and out-going lady. cambodia wants more people like her and with her good attitude and spirit, etc... forget the whiners and the cowards! i want to be her friends, i bet she can teach me a few moves i didn't know before, really!
2:01 PM,
I suggest for all Khmer younger generations to learn this khmer martial art from her, otherwise it will be disappeared for good.
Khmer martial art had many styles the same way of Chinese Shao lin:
-Kun dam Borng Vaeng
- Kun Pee Roeu Damborng Khlei Muoy Ku
-kun Dao Khor muoy ku.
-kun ph'keak sam ang.
-kun kone toeung
-Kun L'bokkator = today called bokkator; L'bok = Luk Chole bok damborng roeu kambet sam dao chamnoch sam khan robos ku proyut.
Damborng roeu kambet m'khang bangvel rorb kam phuon dai loeuk rorng avut ku prochhaing dael veay roeu kap mork, aer dai m'khang teat bangvel tov muk BOK loeu sattrov. So this became L'Bokkator. It's a low style martial art to protect the whole body. It used to cross together to hold the blow of heavy weapon from opponent such as long sword, Ph'keak Sam Ang, Lum Paeng,etc... It should have to practice very fast in both hands, left and right.
This is what I had learnt from my uncle in Kampong Cham.

You dark Khamens have martial arts, too?
Then why do keep losing lands against your neighbors? Maybe your martial arts are only good against old ladies.
LOL
Thank grandma,
It is a good exercise;she is healthy
and lives longer.
people need doing exercise everyday
to be strong and healthy.
Someone should support her to open
a school and keep Khmer art alive.
When she came back home from Wat,
she could do her art.
Could she protect herself?Yes,
indeed.
Could she beat someone with her
bamboo stick? yes,she could.
If anyone is an evil person.
