You can call me naive if you want, but I think we the dark skin Khmer should not blame the media or society for our failure. Those light skin people they are sucessful because of who they are not because of their skin color. They work hard for their sucess. The bottom line is that if I want people to look up to me I have to make people see deeper than the surface color of my skin. Sucess is something to be earned not ask for; therefore, if you want people to respect you, be sucessful don't ask for it. By the way, I am a dark skin Khmer and very damn proud of it.

Dear: 5:33 Am and 6:02 AM, you both are really naived. How can dark skinned Khmers be successful if the light skinned chinese control all the mean of production and wealth. We don't have a fare share in life. It takes money to make money as the old saying goes. The rich Chinese control all the capital in Cambodia. They countinue to use their economic power to suppress the dark skinned Khmers and buy political influnces.

in our case, hard work and respect has nothing to do with control of money.

think, my khmer brothers and sisters!

soon the chinese will control hun sen too!

Sam Rainsy and the SRP Party better do something before the 2013 national election.

Whatever they do, i hope they don't sell out to the CPP Party like the HRP Party and FUNCINPIC Party!

How could we Khmer girls feel proud of our beauty and culture if Hun Sen doesn't allow us Khmer girls to compete in Miss.Universe to show the world our Khmer beauty, culture and country? We Khmer's won't ever feel beautiful unless a Khmer girl competes in Miss.Universe.

Anonymous said...

Because Hun Sen is afraid of other countries can't distinct between a Khmer girl and an African girl, they are black the same way, lol

I dont' buy and read those magazines because of the Pic of those ladies and gentlemen are not KHMER.

I dont' read any of them even was giving free... i tossed them in the trashes.

If you don't look like dark-skinned khmer man or woman I trashed them.

esp. now a day they are all not real khmer.. therefore, they are not and will not protecting the khmer lands and pride. get rid of them fast.....

Just her skin alone will win her the crown. matter of fact, her face is so white, some mistaking her as a ghost.....in daylight. LOL!!!!!

I understand that economic control from the Sino-Khmer, especially the recent newcomers, have been detrimental to the native population.

But, as Khmer, we should understand that our identity is diverse and steer away from fixating on a specific color, belief, or customs.

Khmer is a matter of the heart, not something you can sign on the skin. There are Chinese-Khmer, who have been Khmer for generations, and for all matter of speaking, they are Khmer in heart and soul, patriotic, whether they are dark or not.

There may also be Youn-Khmer/Vietnamese-Khmer who are mixed Khmer and have adopted the Khmer culture and nation allegiance, for all matters of speaking, they are Khmer.

So to say that someone who is "white" automatically makes them a "fake" Khmer is not only false, but a negative attitude to hold because it discriminates against people in our nation.

From the paternal side, myself personally, they are some really white people. From the maternal side, my family are mostly dark-skinned people, yet none of us denied that we are Khmer and both families proclaimed Khmerness 100 percent!

I asked them how they explained the difference in their skinned color, all they said was, "it was their puch", "Puch" which translates to "clan", so rather than trying to figure out what race each family is from and attribute these trivial things such as skin color to external sources, we choose to accept the idea of internal diversity and differences in clan of different families.

After all, to the root of it, Khmer identity is made up of clans, and tribes, of many different people in the beginning.

At 10:12am,

You're the confused one. I totally agree with Keo Cham. There many are Chinese-origin Khmers who love Cambodia wholeheartedly, and are patriot as much as those of dark-skinned Khmers. How abuot Hun Sen, if you want to talk about this? Don't stereotype people ever!! And, if you're think you have thought well, you're so wrong brother. Open your eyes.

stupid to make a great story about the dark and bright skin of our Khmer people.
For someone of us live long time in the caucasian societies, Europe, America and Australian love the dark skin. Except some, who live isolate from the society,they might did not like.
Contrary for most of our brothers and sisters in Cambodia sure, they love to have a bright skin.
Nothing wrong with dark or bright skin of our Khmer people.

Just remember, in Asia white skinned are more popular.

10:12AM - Alumni from University of Washington, Seattle and Keo Cham must be chen-khmer who just arrived from Cambodia.

If you both love Hun Sen so much, you should go back to Cambodia. I see that education in the US didn't help both of you too much. You both are still stupid just like Kem Sokha and the HRP Party members. All of you give Khmer people a bad reputation.

I sure will pick a white skin over a dark skin girl that looks African! Why do you always complain! Maybe you got rejected by a hot chinese girl because she don't like dark skin guys I don't blame them! Who wants to intermarry with a Nigger like Khmers!

Thai is divided in two classes:
rich and poor,white and dark skin.
Vietnamese mixed,Chinese mixed,
Khmer mixed are rich and famous.
They are as same as in Cambodia.
Khmer in Thailand in Trat(Khmer called Trach,a kind of tree)in
Chantabury,West of Bangkok or surrounding Bangkok;North(not many Khmer living there).
But Northeast there are 3,000,000
Khmer living there:Korat,Surin,
Sisaket,buriram etc...
Any races live in Cambodia,they
should love,care,respect,help,
work hard for all races in Cambodia,not put any races down
that what they should do.

Think about Khmer empire era,there
were so many races or ethnic groups and tribes;they had so
many religions and beliefs,how
come they lived in peace and built
thousand stone buildings for us.

2:25 AM sounds very ignorance. I pitty you very much because you must have a very low self esteem to judge other of their skin color. Before you express your opinion, you must be real careful because other may not see the color of your skin, but they can see clearly the content of your character.

you are right 4:34 AM.

Khmer in Srok Khmer will all become mixed youn like hun sen's wife.

only akhodom sam rainsy (not Kem Sokha) will save Srok Khmer. Long live the SRP Party.

to all HRP Party members - it's not to late to join the SRP Paty. We can fight Hun Sen together. You leader Kem Sokha is "washed up." He has no political future anymore. Everyone now knows that he's Hun Sen's dog!!! stop wasting your time, energy, and money supporting Kem Sokha.

US government should deport you and your kind back to Communist China. You're not Chinese or Youn, but a numnut!

9:01AM,
Sorry! I am an American! A naturalize citizen.
For the sake of this argument, why would the US deport me to China if I'm not Chinese or Youn? That's like deporting a Cambodian to Africa. I guess you're not a US citizen, because you don't understand how immigration law work. Aren't you wish you were an American? Oh wait, you can't! You have a criminal record. LMAO!!!
