PHNOM PENH, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen sent his greetings to overseas Chinese in Cambodia on the occasion of the Lunar New Year, according to his message released to the media on Saturday.
In the message dated Jan. 14 to all beloved people of overseas Chinese in Cambodia, the premier said, "Cambodia is a warm house for all brotherly people, including Cambodians with Chinese descent."
He added, "During the time of miserable difficulty and complete separation of families in the 3 years, 8 months and 20 days, we had been in the same difficult lives, losing the beloved lives of fathers, mothers, spouses, and children."
"When the day of Jan. 7, 1979 came, we were all resurrected in warmth together, joining happiness, misery, difficulty and development together until now, it was 32 years ago," he said.
The premier continued to say that 2012 is the Year of the Water Dragon that occurs just once every 60 years. "The Year of the Dragon with water element is more powerful than other years and will bring immense luck, wealth, and happiness to all brotherly people."
"My wife and I would like to join the pleasure with all brotherly Chinese people and bless all of you with prosperity, fortune, and longevity," Hun Sen wrote in the letter.
The Chinese New Year is one of the largest festivals in Cambodia, up to 80 percent of Cambodian people celebrate it every year, Hun Sen said in a public speech in last January.
He said that Cambodia celebrates three times of New Year in a year: Universal New Year, Chinese New Year and Khmer New Year itself.

80% of Cambodian people celebrate Chinese New Year every year?
yeah, 7 january Yuon also kill the chinese.
YES 80 PER CENT !!! EVEN STUPID CAMBODIANS WHO DO NOT SPEAK NOR
READ NOR WRITE CHINESE STICK PAPERS WITH CHINESE SCRIPTS ON THEIR WINDOWS , DOORS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE . YES YES YES EVENTHOUGH THEY HAVE TO SELL THEIR POOR CHILDREN TO GET SOMETHING CHINESE JUST TO SHOW OFF ( 351-350 = 1 . CHINESE IS # 1 )
Why yuons are so hostile and ungrateful to Chinese despite Chinese helped them immensly during the Vietnam wars against the Japanse, French and American?
Because that is yuons' nature. Yuons always betray those who helped them, and they hate Chinese because China is the only country protecting Cambodia and prevent yuons from swallowing Cambodia.
Did 80% of Cambodians celebrate Chinese News Year?

You are so right.
The Viet troups withdrew from Cambodia
only, when the Chinese troups invaded
Vietnam from the North in 1979.
We will teach the Viet land theives a lesson
by soliciting the Chinese help again.
