There is something to be said when it comes to the laziest nations in the world. Most publications associate laziness with what people do (or NOT do) in their spare time, after all duties have been taken care of. To me, that’s a fundamental mistake and doesn’t reflect on the laziness at all. People who bust their butts off so they can have some time for themselves are not lazy. True laziness comes to play when an entire nation can’t get the work – the necessary duties done because they can’t be bothered to get off their soft motorcycle seats. And this is why Cambodia is the laziest nation in the world. Everywhere you go, any time of day you will see hundreds of people of all ages idling in the streets, doing absolutely nothing just killing time by hanging loose. You will be wondering why they are all out here doing nothing. You will be asking yourself – shouldn’t these people be at work and kids at school? How can a nation sustain itself if nobody can be bothered to do any work? Those are all legitimate questions and anyone who pays attention will undoubtedly have them cross their minds upon their first visit to Cambodia.
History of Cambodia – The Laziest Nation in the World
It comes as a striking contrast when one visits the temples of Angkor Archaeological Park and sees the megalomaniac structures Angkorian era civilization was capable of constructing. Could the laziest nation in the world built the world’s largest religious complex? Obviously, Cambodia a millennium ago was different from Cambodia today – aside from being a culture of violence, as Cambodians are as violent today as they have always been.
So Cambodians were definitely not lazy back then, back when the temples of Angkor were built, but what happened? That I guess is as difficult to explain as is the abrupt end to once powerful empire. Ancient Khmer rulers were on top of the game and controlled the region but then something happened and Angkor was abandoned. Everything about the Khmer people, everything – including their approach to work has changed. The end of Angkorian era was the end of decent Cambodia. The empire failed and so did the people. People who were once capable of building monumental structures are nowadays capable of nothing more than idling and doing absolutely a great deal of nothing. Unless verbally and physically abusing foreigners can be considered an activity. Luckily the former can be done from the comfort of their motorcycle seat…

The fact that Cambodia is the laziest nation in the world is not something I am the first person to notice. When the French entered the area and colonized the country in the 1800s, they noticed that Cambodians are incredibly lazy and never get anything done. No matter what they’d tried, no Cambodian could be bothered to get off their ass so the French were left with one and only option – go to a foreign land and bring the people from there to work in Cambodia. Vietnam was the closest and since colonization of Thailand was never much of a success for the French, Vietnam it was. Obviously, it wouldn’t matter where they’d go as any normal nation will have many people who can get the work done, it’s only Cambodia where there was absolutely no one who could be bothered.
Cambodia – Still the Laziest Nation in the World
Today, centuries after the French learned the hard way that nothing in Cambodia gets done because Cambodians are extremely lazy, the situation is unchanged. Cambodia is still the laziest nation in the world but the French are no longer the only ones to know it. Following the industrial revolution, many multi-national companies moved much of their production to Asia and have factories in countries surrounding Cambodia, but none of them is in any rush to open one in this country. Now why would that be? Obviously, they know something that prevents them from making a grave mistake of investing in Cambodia and employing Cambodians. It’s their money and money of their shareholders that are in stake and as such, none of these companies will ever consider opening a factory in Cambodia because they know that nothing would ever get done.
You will find countless garment producers, such as Nike or Adidas, or electronics makers, such as Samsung or Siemens in surrounding countries (Vietnam, Malaysia, etc.) but none of them would consider opening a factory in Cambodia. So why is given that cost of labour in Cambodia is often lower than cost of labour in any of the surrounding countries? Why would they not consider opening a factory in Cambodia if there is a prospect for them to save money on wages? Do they know something we don’t know? Yes they do. They know that no matter how (seemingly) inexpensive the labour is in Cambodia, because people here are the laziest people in the world, at the end of the day nothing would get done.
See the Laziest Nation in the World for Yourself
It doesn’t take a genius to see that Cambodia is the laziest nation in the world. Anyone with marginal observation talent will notice that people here can’t be bothered to work. They just sit around whole day on their motorcycles, hiding from the sun in the shade, grouping up with buddies who are as lazy as themselves, killing their time they have too much of by verbally or physically abusing the foreigners. This laziness is present on every corner of every street in Cambodia and it is one of the reason why Cambodia is so dangerous. Because vast majority of population is not involved with their lives, they are not busy looking after their families so they seek excitement from the comfort of their motorcycle seats.
Those who spend an extra time in Cambodia will notice that progress in everything is extremely slow. When there is a construction going on, you will see people sitting around and chatting instead of getting the work done. That’s why every serious firm looking to open a retail shop or a hotel will contract foreign companies to built the business for them. Contracting Cambodians would mean the business will take forever to start.

Laziness however exists in all walks of life in Cambodia. Kids don’t go to school because they can’t be bothered to learn or do the homeworks. Are you kidding me? A Cambodian kid learning at home to maybe become someone more than a tout who makes abuse of foreigners their life purpose? This ain’t happening.
Cambodia – Most Expensive Labour in the World
When you look deeper into it, you will realize that the cost of labour in Cambodia is one of the highest in the world. Average monthly wage could be only $90, but given how extremely lazy Cambodians are, you will get at best 2 hours worth of labour per person per month. So by paying a Cambodian $90 a month, you are basically paying them $45 per hour. Normal Cambodian is so lazy they will not produce more than 2 hours worth of labour a month and do not forget that that’s only upon excessive supervision and investment of extra 10 hours of your own time to fix up what they had screwed up during their 2 hours worth of work. One really needs to put things in perspective before jumping to conclusions that Cambodians are underpaid. I could only wish I got $45 per hour for my work.

Supporting Cambodian Laziness
Shockingly enough, the world approves of and supports Cambodian laziness. With each dollar donated to Cambodians, with each piece of merchandise that makes it to Cambodia, the laziest nation of the world remains assured that they don’t have to try to change, that it makes no sense working hard for a dollar. If doing nothing lands them free money and things, why would they even attempt to work? Work has been excluded from their lives for centuries and there’s never been more reason to stay lazy than there is now. The philosophy is simple:
Let us do nothing and enjoy our lives without worrying about work, because work requires sacrifices and is tiring and distressing. Instead, let others go through the hassles and tension of employment. Let them work hard their entire lives, struggle for decades to eventually make it up the ladder, renouncing their spare time, their families and friends, let them dedicate the best part of their life to working for the man, instead of spending it with their loved ones, because by wearing themselves out working, they will eventually manage to save a few dollars up and that’s when we enter their view and have them send their money, the money they worked so hard for to us. That’s it – if you are too lazy and irresponsible to work, just whine about being poor and you’ll end up getting money from someone who was brought up being responsible and sacrificed their best years for work.

It is no secret that countries with strong work ethic are successful on an international scale. Lack of work ethic often means lack of character which is something that anyone who pays attention notices shortly after entering Cambodia. Most Cambodians will prefer to look and stay poor so they can get free stuff by getting sponsors to pay for them or donors to give it to them. An alternative to this is to roll up the sleeves and start to work hard for your money but that’s work, isn’t it? Why work if you can get stuff for free by whining out loud? Cambodia is without doubt the laziest nation in the world. You can see it everywhere you look, but it’s also proven by no interest in Cambodian labor from any multinational corporation and historical records of people who tried to make Cambodians work but failed. I challenge anyone to prove me wrong.

Shit, this is serious stuff. Cambodians are super lazy, so what's new about that? Everybody knows that. They are slow too and somewhat inferior to their immediate neighbors like the Thais and the Vietnamese. That's why their neighbors look down on them. What do they do? Nothing as usual. That's why they will never start a revolution against any dictator. They are simply too lazy, too busy doing nothing most of the time. How do they survive as a nation? Through begging and borrowing. After more than 30years from the Khmer Rouge, they still can't support themselves. The UN still provide them with billions of dollars each year and if the roads or bridges need to be built or fixed, what would do they? They'd wait for someone else build for them. What to they do after that? They'd find ways to destroy it.
what's wrong with being lazy as long as they don't become obese...
Yeah, this is funny as shit!!!
Everything is wrong of been label as lazy nation. No education, no good work, no sense of oneself to improve one's lives, nation of low skill labor, no pride in themselves, lazy nation will always been taken advantage of by smarter and powerful neighbors ( Viets, Thai) etc. etc etc etc. IT IS FUCKING EVERYTHING WRONG IF YOU GOT LABEL AS LAZY PERSON, HAVE SOME DIGNITY WILL YOU.
This is why Thai and Viets look down at us always. Fucking coward Cambodian men live off their parents, grand parents, woman. I am a Khmer man but I went to school in the U. S. and earned an Aircraft Technician license. I am responsible for the lives of some 200 or more peoples every day I work on these Airbus, Boeing. I make some $50,000.00 per year. You asshole Khmer man needs to get your lazy ass and please improve yourself.
Whoever wrote this article is very stupid! This writer doesn't see the problems Csmbodia has that make all these people to be on the streets and do nothing. Cambodian government creates no job for Cambodians. Poor people can't afford to go to school. What are they supposed to do if you were them? I you had no job, if you had no school to attend, what would you do? You probably die before these people. Cambodians are hard working people! It is their government that has nothing for people to do. So start writing more about Hun Sen's Stupid government. Don't write about innocent Cambodians again! Open your eyes and analyze the problems before you write.
The author of this article is uneducated and also stupid. He/she is probably do drugs when he has nothing to do. How can you have good work ethics if you have no work to do? At least these people don't do any drug like you before you write this article.
a stupid idiot who was superficial and unintelligent making generalization and racist remark...nothing more.
they don't have any job to do, asshole.
what a useless article! get your butt to work. You have too much time thinking negative ideas. The writer is a bum himself. Be more productive, will you?
It is quite laughable that this writer makes such a fool of himself. Indeed, he is the one that is too lazy to get a real job, and chooses instead to write this none sense. If only he is not too lazy to engage his brain before he starts writing, perhaps he could come up with a worth reading article. What a hypocrite bastard!
I wonder what this low life was smoking when he wrote the article.
His name is MARK and his havel agency called TRAVELMARK?
Think about it!
ដូចជាហួសហេតុពេកទេដឹងលោក MARK?
សំអាងត្រឹមតែប៉ុន្មានប៉ុស្តិខាងលើលោកហ៊ានធ្វើការ
វិនិច្ឆ័យជូនជនជាតិខ្មែរយ៉ាងគាប់ចិត្តបែបនេះផង?
MARK? or Youn Mark???!!!
You're sure that only Khmer people who is laziest nation in the world?
Fuck you!!!???
This article has promoted hates and dislike Khmer people in general. Stupid article has ever been written by stupid and uneducated unknown author on TravelingMark.com, making Cambodian or Khmer people feel offended.
Bloggers or readers, please go to the website called travelingmark.com and ask the owner of that website, "who wrote this article which is very offended and promote the hates on Khmer/Cambodian people."
Encourage this unknown author to blame the CPP/Yuon officals and thieves, Hun Sen and his comrades who put Khmer people in such the situation to be unemployed, have no access to educations, job training, transportation, government assistance, and more.
Also, this article that was written by unknown idiot (could be Vietnamese/Yuon or Thai) has make other people like Americans, Europeans, Japanese, and so on, to Khmer people in general and promote the likeness to Yuon/Viet and Thai people.
This article is so suspicious and ridiculous.
People in Cambodia there are not lazy. This is the regime under CPP party took everything away from people and people have nothing left or have no help in order to get a job or education. Those people sitting there on Motorcycles and on the street, wonder where to go and what to do and then they stick around there. They could be taxi motorcycles to give them a ride by make the money to feed their families and children. So, don't be wrong about that.
Some people are lined up to be lifted to the work because have no transportation. Sometimes, they are afraid to ask for help. They are not begging and they are very different from Homeless People in the rich countries.
This unknown author must be Viet/Yuon or Thai who wrote this or sold this article or pretend to be a white bastard or bitch, who label just Khmer people or hate them because of their fake Thai or Viet who live in the lies of their histories.
If we are there close to them, we have to meet those Cambodian folks and want to know who they are. Maybe they are the laziest people because they are illegal Yuon born in Cambodia looking like dark skin or maybe they are Yuon-Cambodian, Chinese-Cambodian or Yuon born in Cambodia. That is our opinion.
We have seen people in other countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Burma, Laos, China, Philiphine, Mexico,
This is no surprise, really! The French and the American said the same thing a hundred years ago, and even brought more Vietnamese over to Cambodia to run things. That's why the Chinese & Vietnamese immigrants have been outperforming the native Khmers. On the bright side, the Laotian and the native Thai are lazy as well. Only the Chinese Thai and some Northern Thai are hard working. It might very well be Confucianism that has been widening this big gap in work ethics and intelligence between Confucius countries and non-confucius Asian countries. I have been to China, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, and of course Cambodia, and you can see the fast pace and intensity the Viets and Chinese (Guangdong) go about their average day from early morning until night. I can only say that about a few in Thailand, Laos and Cambodia.
It is suspecting that Viet/Yuon causes the problem between White people to fight with Cambodian people when Yuon/Viet evils live anywhere or other countries. It is the same things that Yuon/Viet has the reputation to create and stir the situation among Khmer people, making Khmer leaders and folks fight each others to death until they take the advantages of weakness and opportunities, and possibly making China and the U.S. fight each others and even making white people hate Khmer people. That is the fact! Evil Yuon/Viet bastards and bitches are very hypocrite and dangerous. We have been there and know that. We will tell Americans, Europeans, Koreans, Japaneses, Canadians friends and more about Evil Yuon/Vietnamese folks.
The "Entire Nation"??????? What is Mark's Last name? Lol. So why is Mark being the EXTRAORDINARY LAZIEST in finishing adding his Last Name? Americans are the most laziest in the world as there are more obese American people than any other nations in the world. In fact Americans are the laziest as they only buy made-in China products. How many Americans are on public handouts. Millions. In Cambodians, there are no government handouts or social security money for the disables, the mental retarded or the old. The Cambodians in Cambodia are capable in managing their lives without Mark, the laziest author without the Last Name. Lol. In fact if Mark is so ambitious, why doesn't he own factories or something in Cambodia already? The truth is that Mark the author without the last name simply can't make it in Cambodia. So Mark is jealous and he took snapshots of some jobless Cambodians to shame Cambodia. Perhaps, someone needs to take pictures of Americans loitering in the shopping malls, social security/welfare & unempoloyment offices, and jails. Lol. In fact check out people who loiter at Home Depots. Lol.
Here is a challenge to Mark: You go ahead and show us how to be a successful foreinger in Cambodia. Please do. Mark, you want to talk about the French in Cambodia. They were the biggest LOSERS in Cambodia. After nearly a hundred years of "OWNING" Cambodia, have you ever heard of or seen the richest French people in Cambodia at all. The answer is LIKE NEVER. Lol. The Richest Americans in Cambodia? Like Never! Lol. Maybe Mark needs to be the first Western person to be the richest in Cambodia since he is so ambitious and good at overgeneralizing the Cambodians. Lol. Where are the pictures of the American pandlers and homeless and hustlers when I need them. Lol.
Khmer people are lacking of jobs.
They went to be slaves in Thailand,
Malaysia,Taiwan,South Korea,South
Africa etc...
Some rich and high officials children are the laziest ones in towns.
Mark before opening your mouth,you
should turn tongue seven times.
My goodness, Mark. For whatever reason you have to hate Cambodians I don't know but your article is very demeaning, not only to Cambodians that you tried to insult, but particularly to yourself. Your repeats of the word "laziness" to refer the Cambodians are so frequent that your claim is no longer credible anymore. You are such an ignorant person about Cambodia. I am sure that you must have a bad experience in Cambodia, because you made several repetitions about Cambodians hurling abuses at foreigners from motorcycles. Maybe the word "foreigner" in the article really refer to yourself.
Look, the reason the French brought in Vietnamese workers do work in Cambodia during the colonial time were not due to the laziness of Cambodians, but due to the racism from the part of the French administration. During the colonial time, in Indochina (Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam), Vietnam was the dominant colony and the French colonialist authority employed many Vietnamese as local administrators. As such, these local Vietnamese administrators have more powers than the Cambodians and the Laotians, so they employed Vietnamese to work in these 3 countries. The fact that you seen too many people on the streets is not because they are lazy, it is because they have no work to do due to the corruption of the present government that failed to create jobs.
Cambodia's slow progress is not as a result of Cambodian laziness, but as a result of the corruption and lawlessness of the Cambodian present rulers.
Many foreign investors are now coming to Cambodia because of openness and the reduction of corruption. Garment producers such as Nike or Adidas, that you said in your article as not coming to Cambodia, are now buying garment products from garment producers in Cambodia.
Mark, stop your ignorance, do research before writing rubbish and such a very demeaning article against Cambodians. If you have a personal vendetta against any Cambodians who abused you during your travel, just release your anger against that/those person/persons, not against the whole Cambodian population.
Mark, are you not the laziest in the world because you gave up your job and just got on your ass, being a parasite and travel around doing nothing to contribute to this world? This is what I call "laziest", being too lazy and just travel around doing nothing.
9:48 AM - Can you talk about Yuon who is pretending white guy named is Mark. You need to be careful of what Yuon/Viet are behind this problem, causing other bloggers and readers think he is a White guy. Yes, it makes you think this Yuon/Viet makes Cambodian dislike Americans, French and so whatever. Yuon/Viet bastards or bitches are sitting behind computers to create the problem among Khmer/Cambodian people because of the ugliest Yuon/Vietnamese History.
Just want to suggest you not to jump conclusion by blaming American or White guys because of the name Mark without last name, according to your comment. Coming from your comment, think that you are pretending yourself to be Khmer/Cambodian to talk shits on Americans, White or Frenches or you are just confused. Not your fault if you are Khmer.
We are not fooled with your comments. I am very cautious about anyone writing the comments.
We know more than the Yuon/Viet games and tricks or anyone else who plays the trick, dirty games, and more.
We wrote in 9:27 AM
Khmer Yeurng!
9:34 AM - You need to be sensible and don't try to compare the 100 year past tense, making all up. Just think that Vietnamese/Yuon were and are the criminals and killers. You made all up by saying the French were in favor of Yuon/Die Viet who were the suspicious criminals to create Indochina. We would suggest you to think who wrote this stupid article about only Cambodian people are the laziest in the world. Think about it.
Americans, French or Europeans are well educated, not to say such the articles.
Guess who did this article, Viet/Yuon.
I agree with 10:09. That is right, Mark, you better do more research before spitting sh*t against the Cambodians. Do you recall the Mayaquez Incident where the Americans UNDERESTIMATE the Cambodian fighters. Read up on it. You will see that the most actively allert well-trained well-equipped best of the best American troopers sent to fight the MOST LAZIEST Cambodians were simply decimated. Why don't you learn from the American pastors who made statements that "People are never LAZY if they seem so it is because they no goals". According to Mark if Cambodians are so lazy then they would probably be having nothing to eat already. Remember Mark, Cambodia still remains the agriculture nation. This means most Cambodians make their livelihoods in farming. Mark also talked about the French importing people from other countries to work in Cambodia in the colonial time. So does this mean the Whites were the most laziest in the world and couldn't get the work done when they imported the "SLAVES" from Africa? Lol. I see the picture of Mark and he looks unfit and unhealhy out of job and wishing to be making $45 an hour. Lol. He also put down on the Cambodian school children. However, in America, it is never the white students who are the top, but the Asian students instead. Lol. In fact, the requirements for white students to enter any top universities are much lower than those of the Asians applying to the same schools. Lol. The white parents hire tutors to help their children understand concepts, but the Asian students with slavejob working nonEnglish speaking parents still outperform accademically those spoonfed white Americans on any test scores. Lol. That is why when it comes to thinking logically, Mark without the last name fails miserably. Getting the wrong answers and coming up with the wrong conclusions as always are their trademark, wouldn't anyone say so! Lol.
You call yourself កុលបុត្រមហានគរខ្មែរ when you post this article written by some lunatic Mark.
Whoever writes this article is a racist motherfucker who knows nothing about politic and history of Cambodia.
Why does KI allow this to be published, there must be a reason behind it and that reason is not friendly to the Khmer nation.
The poster should call himself កុលបុត្រមហា chaang raii.
I wonder how much does KI get paid for posting this shit.
To Khmer Yeurng, Mark seems to look white. I don't know. He might be a mixed breed or some sort, but you be the judge yourself. He is very hateful of Cambodians, and he needs to be banned from entering the country. Look at his picture: BALD, FAT-Potbelly- Made-in China outdoor clothing...Cheap sunglasses...wishing for a $45 dollars job...please. Lol. Mark the RACIST is on the prowl against the Cambodians. Watch out for him! What we should do is to make him responsible for the pictures that he took and perjorize on the Internet. We need to take Mark up on his own CONCLUSIONS and go interview those "LAZY Cambodians" he found at "EVERY" street corners in Cambodia. Let's do it, Mark! If you are going to call them lazy, then do it infront of their faces in Cambodia since lazy people do not ever do anything anyway, wouldn't you say, Mark the racist idiot. Lol.
Check out the most proactice ambitious picture of the potbellied Mark. Sh*t: Lol.
http://www.travelingmark.com/about/
Shouldn't someone be taking pictures of Americans with families at the beaches and parks and Americans on their motocycles hanging out in the middle of day...Lol. Since according to Mark, the Cambodians have no work ethics, why do I hear lot of stories about white workers who got fired because of their inabilities to perform their duties. Lol
10:46 AM - Agree with you. We suspect that someone who is not Khmer/Cambodian told him that Khmer/Cambodian people are lazy or the laziest. We need to talk to him about it and ask him why he wrote this article or he might be paid by someone suspicious to post this article. Let's find out more. Wait and see.
From my experiences, I heard some Viet/Yuon assholes had bad mouthpieces about Khmer people because those Yuon/Viet talked shitting on Cambodia. I have been there when they did not know where I came from. For examples, I went to the Vietnamese restaurant, the lady owner said to American and Japanese friends the terrible and untrue things about Cambodian, lazy or retard or Khmer Rouges killers or whatever. That is why many Americans or white people or rich people learned from or believed in Yuon/Vietnamese folks who lied everything in order to do the businesses. It is about wealth and money as well. They don't care. I have been there and that.
11:04...I am glad that there are rebuttals to Mark the racist idiot whose body is the most stinkiest and fat and head bald and outdoor clothing cheap...the loser Mark spent time travelling in Cambodia and this is all he gets from the nation that will soon become a nonpermanent member of the United Nations Security Council. Mark the idiot will eventually die in the end anyway. If this is his knowledge about the Cambodians, then he is just a useless human being with immorality whose life goal is to hurt fellow human beings. This Mark will never be able to make it in Cambodia even if he tries. Not a chance!
again, don't be judgmental and biased against cambodia, ok. not everybody in the entire cambodia is lazy like you insinuated, ok. compare to what? and don't be jealous with cambodia either, ok! now, get lost, ok! bye bye!
Cambodian work hard but they don’t know how to work smart.
Here is an example.
There were 2 teams of workers in a rubber plantation in Cambodia in the 50’s and the French owned the plantation.
Each team had about thirty men including a leader.
The first team was all Cambodian and the second was all Vietnamese.
There were many worksites which were setup this way scattered all over the plantation.
There were very few Frenchmen to supervise the many worksites; they had chauffeurs driving them around in the Jeeps from one site to another, so the teams’ leaders were their eyes.
The Cambodian teams worked steadily all day and took only a few breaks.
The Vietnamese teams took a lot of breaks but they got up and worked very hard when they heard or saw the Jeeps coming.
When the Frenchmen saw the Vietnamese working harder than the Cambodian, they said that the Cambodian were lazy.
កុលបុត្រមហានគរខ្មែរ, your opinion here is about the same as those Frenchmen.
KI, if your goal is to stimulate the traffic to your website, you should be ashamed of being Khmer.
Who are you, knuckleheads, working for anyway?
is that why people were biased against cambodia because they perceived cambodia as lazy, weak, poor, not smart, and so on? is that why people look down on cambodia and did not want to see cambodia develops, etc? is that why they played favoritism with youn and siem and so forth because they think cambodia is lazy, etc? those biased people must've learn or hear that from youn and siem scumbag, evil people, i assume. it is so ignorant of those people to judge and be biased against cambodia like this. no wonder cambodia don't need or want them in our country, you know!
cambodia don't welcome biased people and haters in cambodia, ok! if you want to be in cambodia you must respect cambodia being different, etc, ok. otherwise, stay home and don't come to cambodia, ok! we don't like you either, really, especially biased people who hate and who are against cambodia in some way, you know! so, get lost, ok! you're not welcome in cambodia, really!
From what have read everything on travelingmark.com and feel that Mark did not know much about political issues and what behind the regime in Cambodia. He did not know that Viet/Yuon criminals are all over the places in Cambodia, and illegal settlers, speaking Khmer language (don't know all the details). Did you know that every administration and ministry of CPP/Yuon operations under Hun Sen are the messes and corruptions. That is why Mark did not know what he was talking about.
Cambodia/Srok Khmer is better off without CPP Yuon, Vietnamese interferences, the dirty secret plans of Yuon/Vietnamese crooks and bastards under the fake and stinky leadership of Hun Sen (installed by Viet/Yuon masters) and beyond. Yes, the situations have been bad every daily operations under the Communist CPP Yuon and Hun Sen that caused so many poor people in Cambodia (majority of illegal Yuon/Viet settlers making living there) to create a lot of problems.
Blame the CPP Yuon Crooks and fucking PM Hun Sen who mislead the country of Cambodia in the wrong direction and to be unorganized and corrupted.
11:27 AM - That is why the Vietnamese folks have tried to swallow Cambodian land and kill people from the first place.
DAMN.. THESE KHMER NIGGERS ARE DARK AZZ SHIT HAHAHHA!!
11:55 AM - Who are you, asshole and lazy ass! Viet/Yuon Gook manipulated White to hate Cambodian! Wow!!! You are an absolutely asshole!
Mark the racist idiot does not know anything. How could he conclude anything without first trying to find out what it is to begin with. Doesn't he ever heard of the express, "Don't judge the book by its cover"? I went back to closely examine the few pictures he presents to the world against Cambodians. One looks like the motodup drivers waiting for customers. Another looks like people taking a break from their work. The other one looks like farmers from rural areas looking for work. The picture showing group of people looks like work coming out for a break.
Mark the racist idiot look likes the ugliest mixed breed of some sort. If he is mixed with any of the Asian, that is totally f*cked up big time. Look at his ugly face with the pointy chin and fat potbellied shitty body. This jerk will not even last under Cambodia's equatorial sunheat.
don't eve let any country colonize cambodia again with youn and siem, etc because they will play favoritism with youn and siem over cambodia simply because they judge cambodia and being biased against cambodia in favor of siem and youn. yes, the french did just that whey they colonized cambodia, youn and liev. they favored youn over khmer because they don't like khmer as they perceive or see khmer as lazy compare to youn. that's why they favored youn over khmer. no wonder pol pot kill those biased people. now i can see why pol pot hated outsiders the most, but agains pol pot was also killing his own people, that's the biggest mistake any leader can make by killing your own people like pol pot and his regime did to cambodia. anyway, khmer people knew all alongn that the french and to some extent the american played favoritism with youn and siem over khmer simply they don't like like as being lazy, weak, small, etc... unless that stop and people like that get better educated, there will be a backfire on their biased and prejudice and hate, etc against cambodia. cambodia begs to be different for your information, ok! get used to that, ok! we are cambodia, not vietnam or thailand, ok! if you like those countries so much, then go there and don't come to cambodia, ok! god, i hate biased and ignorant people like that, you know! and i thought they were educated and smart, they are not, really! i think khmer people are way smarter than those biased people and haters out there, you know!
if you look down on cambodia, we will return your favor as well, ok. what goes around comes around, really! how stupid are you? get educated on diplomacy, ok!
11:55 you and your racist Mark go work in the Cambodia's sun and see how your skin turn out to be, you f*cker! Lol.
at least khmer people aren't obsese, you know!
how stupid of the author to take pictur of four people taking their afternoon rest and insinuated that that all khmer people are lazy. how stupid he is! in cambodia, for your information, most people take a long break from work in the afternoon. and who are you to make this biased judgment and prejudice on cambodia like this as lazy! are you abusing your right to the freedom of speech here? watch out for libeling and slandering, ok! don't come to my country and start spreading your evil, biased, hate rumor, etc, ok!
Hun Sen government should sue Mark the racist idiot to the fullest extent of the law for speaking the untruth against the nation of Cambodia. Ban the racist Mark the idiot from ever entering Cambodia. Notice the pictures he took. I have seen dogs slimmer than this ugly fatass Mark so does this mean that the racist Mark is LAZIER than the dogs?
don't hate cambodia because we are beautiful. who are you to come to cambodia and make such racist remark on my country?
if we are lazy, just don't come to steal from us like our lands, territories, etc, then we are fine. if you steal from us, you will be in trouble! hey, this is not the dark ages era, ok! no wonder cambodia looks to china for investments, etc because we don't like baised people who played favoritism with siem and youn, the historical enemies of cambodia, you know! unless you want us to keep hating those people forever, then it's your fault for your biased against cambodia, ok!

Believe that Mark is very upset with Cambodian Government under CPP/Yuon Party led by Hun Sen (who is Vietnamese/Yuon dog or puppet).
He is right, but it is wrong to insult Khmer/Cambodian people. He need to apologize for Khmer/Cambodian people and us.
It is not fair for us, Khmer people, who have been through too much of civil wars because of Communist CPP Yuon regime, Vietnamese control and fake power of Hun Sen (Vietnamese puppet).
Mark should blame the Communist Vietnamese/Yuon master-minded evils and folks in Hanoi or Vietnam who still interfere the affairs of Cambodian/Srok Khmer and Vietnam still has no respects to 1991 Peace Agreement in Paris after Hun Sen was installed as PM by Communist Vietnamese Masters in Hanoi.
12:15 PM - Don't use Ah Kwack Hun Sen. It is not worth it because Hun Sen serves his Communist Yuon master-minded evils in Hanoi who told Hun Sen what to do to fail Cambodia/Srok Khmer and Khmer people. Don't be blind.
Khmer people can tell Mark to apologize and he can promote the Khmer people and nation to better country.
Yes, Mark is wrong and he need to do something he did is extreme.
CPP, illegal Yuon/Viet settlers, Hun Sen and his Yuon/Viet comrades in Cambodia control everything and who are Communist CPP/Youn beggars of International Donors. Those CPP Yuon/Viet CPP and Hun Sen (Yuon/Viet dog) and his Yuon comrades took money and kept in their pockets, do not do anything to help the poor people in Cambodia.
Think about it, friend.
why ignorant people have to compare cambodia to youn and siem? didn't they know that cambodia is country different from youn and siem countries! why would anyone want cambodia to be the same like youn and siem? i think cambodia begs to be different from youn and siem, you know!
maybe some people want cambodia to be corrupted, if we're not, they judge us and be prejudice on us. too bad, cambodia will always be cambodia, get used to it, really! we are cambodia, not vietnam and thailand, ok! we are not stupid like you think we are, ok, we learned from our history so our country can be better than before, you know. don't hate us because we are different from you, ok! you are not perfect either, so...!
it's not even funny to call cambodia as lazy; that's an ignorant stereotyping people. take your racist remark elsewhere, really!
talk about sense of humour failure. It certainly seems to have touched a nerve.
Don't you people have anything better to do than react to a piece like this ? Let it go. - unless of course deep down you feel there is a grain of truth.
Hello Khmers!
Mark just wrote a provocational report.
Mark knew from the beginning that this is all bullshit what he wrote.
But it is funny to see how the Khmer people jump on that bullshit.
Hello Khmers, relax and laugh, show some more supremacy!
Fuck you 1:20 and 1:25 you think this is nothing but a joke. F*ck you deep you asshole. Wait I am just kidding OK, you A-hole.
In his blog, this Mark person says that he quit work to travel. Then he had the audacity to call Cambodians "lazy". What a prick! This sorry excuse for a man is not saying "a few" Cambodians, or "some" Cambodians, but the whole nation. What kind of racist generalisation is that? Bigot.
And for those who try to pass this off as "humour", well it is you guys who don't have any. There is vast difference between being humourous and being a complete and utter hate-filled prick. Mark is the latter, I'm afraid.
And KI Media, why are you guys giving this racist oxygen by publishing this article? What good does do for the Khmer cause?
Mark is generalizing everyone in Cambodia to the point of insulting a race, people, a nation and a country which he visited.
If what Mark said were true then all or most of Cambodians who had left Cambodia and now are living in the western countries must be not working at all and live on handouts, which is not the case at all.
Many Cambodians in western countries work very hard and pay lots of taxes and a number of them have also become very successful even more successful than Mark himself; be it economically or academically!
I find it unusual that a visiting westerner would go to that length to insult disgracefully the people of a country he visited!
Somehow, I feel that the article was written by someone who was born in Cambodia instead; be it a Chinese Cambodian, Vietnamese Cambodian, pure Cambodian or others, but that person was surely born in Cambodia.
The article is very insulting to me and my dignity as a Cambodian. I am always proud to be a Cambodian and don't you ever think that I am lazy.
To whoever Mark is, it is too bad I do not know who you are and where you live as I would love to challenge you in work or school, no matter what field of study to prove to you that your statement is very stupid and totally full of nonsense!
Pissed off
YOU CAN SAY THAT CAMBODIA IS LAZY NATION ; BUT CAMBODIAN ARE NOT
LAZY : AFTER POL POT'S, MANY CAMBODIAN SURVIVORS HAVE EMIGRATED TO EUROPE AND USA WHERE THERE WERE PLENTLY OF WORKS TO DO AND THESE PEOPLE WENT THERE BARE-HANDED . THEY 'VE WORKED HARD ; SOME OF THEM WORK AND GO TO SCHOOL, WORK
DOUBLE SHIFT . AFTER OVER 30 YEARS , THEY GET BETTER LIFE THAN
SOME AMERICANS AND EURIPEANS THERE . NO CAMBODIANS HOMELESS
WHERE THERE ARE WORKS AVAILABLE ; THEY ARE NOT LAZY .
HERE, SOME MOTOBIKE ON THE STREETS ARE NOT LAZY ; THEY ARE
MOTO-TAXI ( MOTODOOP) WAITING FOR CUSTOMERS . IT'S LOOK LAZY, WHEN YOU WALK BY AND DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING .
I guess I was wrong in assuming that Mark was not a westerner after having visited his blog.
Well, folks!
Visit his site and argue your points, but refrain from using bad words!
Tell him why you think his statement is quite seriously insulting!
Take him on!
Surely I would not want any fish from Mark and would rather learn how to fish on my own!
Pissed off
this ignorant author sounded like a couple of kids recently who mad stupid remarks about america that police found out was threatening to the security of america, so of course they deported them back to england. it shows some people can be so stupid like this biased author called mark. they think it's funny, but others don't, so they got deported back to where they came from as soon as they landed at LAX, you know!
Frankly, I blame KI Media for posting this insensible, biased, and distasteful piece of person writing found on a blog from some guy who obviously doesn't have any appreciation of the realities that the Khmer people face every day. Of course he is entitled to his opinions, good or bad, of any people, especially when such opinion are aired on his own blog - but to re-post it here just goes against the grain of sensibility on the part of KI Media's moderators.
This article was published in 2010 on TravelMark, website.
Mr. Mark, are you kidding us? Or you want to test the reaction of Cambodian people if we Khmer will or won’t unite to fight your article. You’re really blindly. To light your spot between your two ears and perhaps you could understand a bit more.
You could say some of them, but not insult the whole nation that’s not appropriate.
This is a serious matter to get labeled as the laziest people on earth. Cambodia could get a lot ofunwanted connotations for this labling. I am not sure who to judge this but for sure it got some politics in it.
Mark uses the words "most lazy" as if he has visited every country in the world and ranked them from the most diligent to the lackadaisical. Mark would you care to name your most diligent people on earth? and do you happen to be coming from one of them?.. or would it reveal too much your own racialist prejudices and complete ignorance of khmer social dynamics?
stupid writer
I think the writer needs to do more home works on how job availability in Cambodia. Persons is sitting on the motor bikes are waiting for client. They are motodube drivers. If the writer doesn't know what the motodube is, he should go back to primary school.
Mark, is set for early retirement that's why Mark met a Vietnamese prostitute Ha, whilst traveling Asia.
Mark, why dont you write about the Vietnamese Colonization in Cambodia. Millions of Vietnamese are living legally and illegally, such as your prostitute Ha and her relatives. Then you will see why Cambodians are the laziest nation on earth.
Just a suggestion.
http://www.travelingmark.com/cambodia/true-sad-life-story-ha/
Watch the youtube below:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiNvEIQoE7M
It is about about female moto-taxi is the same guys or boys siting on moto bicycles waiting for their clients.
Let's Mark and other foreigners and Viet/Yuon or Thai folks thinks.
They are trying to survive to make a living and feed their families. They are moto-taxies waiting for clients or foreign tourists.
Mark had a very bad judges on those Khmer folks.
Khmer Yeurng
Hun Sen solidified his grasp on power and full control over Cambodia in 1998 with rigged elections, turning Cambodian People Party into the leading party with opposition suppressed or completely silenced. He’s been ruling Cambodia since, systematically strengthening his grasp over the nation, supported by US$5 billion in aid granted to Cambodia by western governments from the money of the taxpayers like me and you. In return, Hun Sen and his Cambodian People Party exploit natural and historical resources rights over which are given to private parties with close ties to his corrupt government.
Removal of Hun Sen’s opponents is ongoing. After topping his first premier Pen Sovann, Hun Sen then arranged to have Premier Chan Si offed in a Moscow hospital. Police General Heng Pov, also known for being the most corrupt police officer in Cambodia (being the most corrupt cop in the most corrupt country must be quite something) used to be Hun Sen’s advisor but after his fallout, he found himself in Cambodian jail where he sits without disturbing any more of Hun Sen’s peace. Heng Pov’s henchman Hok Lundi was killed in a dubious helicopter crash that was never investigated.
Mark, 2010
4:48 PM - I agree with you. Thanks for sharing with us.
Mark did not understand and he screwed up. Why was Mark so blind about Yuon/Vietnamese folks and females folks who are too many and too crowded and entered Cambodian territory illegally and do bad stuff to make a living to sell sex or body like that. It is the Vietnamese Government faults allowing the Vietnamese folks produce to many children and expands too many people. Vietnam became over populated and then Yuon/Viet folks enter Khmer land and Laos to illegally do dirty businesses in Cambodia to confuse the foreigners like Mark to think it is Cambodian way. Illegal Vietnamese settlers are causing a lot of problems to Khmer people, making Khmer people like us feel miserable and unfortunate. That is why Khmer people like us get so mad at Yuon/Vietnamese folks who have done terrible things to Khmer people and nation and beyond.
Khmer people, please write the blogs and story by doing the researches to tell the foreigners or educate foreigners like Mark to make sure that they (foreigners or tourists) know who we are as good Khmer people who did not take anything for grants. Yuon/Vietnamese took everything for grants in Cambodia even in the U.S., Canada, and other countries.
That is why we seek Khmer people anywhere have been let down by the false stories.
Mark needs to apologize and do something to make us Khmer people feel better. It is not fair at all for all of us Khmer/Cambodian people.
Khmer Yeurng.
5:27 PM (Mark, 2010):
Those corrupted officials are illegal Yuon settlers such as Heng Pov, Hok Lundy, Chan Si and other officials in Communist Cambodian People Party (CPP) under the fake power of Hun Sen (illegally installed by Communist Yuon/Viet master-minded evils from Hanoi and is a Viet/Yuon dog). They are the most corrupted and caused the major troubles to fail Cambodia and did not anything to help unfortunate poor Khmer people and they took the money and kept in their pockets.
That is why we have seen many Khmer people on the street and live on dirty poor places.
Cambodia is better off with those evil corrupted officials coming from Communist Yuon/Vietnam and dumb Khmer leaders like Hun Sen, Heng Samrin, Chea Sim who were provided and supported by Vietnam Hanoi evils militarily.
Illegal Yuon/Vietnamese officials like Hor Nam Hong (form Khmer Rouges Prisoner Chief - Secret Yuon agent), So Ann, Hun Sen's Yuon wife, Sok Kong, Khiev Kanarith and others under the stinky leadership of Hun Sen (Vietnamese dog) have done damages to Cambodia country's natural resources economically and militarily. You need to know more about these problems before you make the judgement on Cambodia.
You may have seen that Vietnam is growing because they have made a lot of money on Cambodia resources and took everything and overtook from Cambodia to Vietnam. Now, Vietnam tends to invest the money in Cambodia by opening the banks of Vietnam in Cambodia, especially in Phnom Penh. Have you seen the new lately about Vietnam has the biggest investment in Cambodia more that other countries in Southeast Asia. Vietnam stole everything from Cambodia's natural resources (including Laos) to Vietnam and make Vietnam's Economic bigger and growing. Vietnam is a thief and crook.
Khmer Yeurng.
This mentally ill Mark said:
“Unless verbally and physically abusing foreigners can be considered an activity. Luckily the former can be done from the comfort of their motorcycle seat…”
He behaved rudely at them and that was the reason he was verbally and physically abused. He was lucky that they did not kill him because he is a foreigner.
Most of the people sitting on the motorcycles are motodup drivers; a profession that has been imported from Vietnam since 1979.
Mark calls travelling and vacationing are his work, so he must the bastard of some millionaire. Whatever nationality he is, his country must be very proud of him for producing nothing.
Mark is in favor of Yuon/Vietnam who are a land thief and crook on the planet. Plus, Vietnam has created the Killing Fields in Cambodia and set up Khmer Rouges as Khmer killers instead.
Mark is stupid by doing thing to help the Yuon/Vietnamese thieves who have made him feel sorry for them, but they are hypocrite and evils.
That is why White people or foreigner people watch out on Yuon/Vietnamese everywhere. Vietnamese/Yuon folks are bad for Khmer people and Khmer land thieves on the planet and they lied a lot in the history and do very poisonous and dirty business with other foreigners in the world.
Fuck Yuon/Viet!!!
Correction for 5:56 PM
5:27 PM (Mark, 2010):

4:48 PM
That is what I am talking about. The author must be his Yuon/Viet prostitute who wrote this article to insult Khmer Nation. Do you see?
Vietnam is a very ugliest nation on the planet and most secret killer on the planet.
Vietnamese/Yuon gooks are always influencing the foreigners by lying to hate Khmer people from the first. That is why Americans have done less favor in Cambodia than Vietnam until Vietnamese/Yuon gooks stole everything from Khmer.
Fuck very deeply in Vietnamese/Yuon brains which are very poisonous and dirty in the business world.
Whoever posts this bullshit article on Khmer Intelligence Media (or rather ‘Khmer Idiocy Media’) owes an apology to the Khmer nation.
Whatever Mark posting is his freedom of expression, but KI Media (Khmer Idiocy Media) which represents the voice of Khmer should not do as he says.
But Khmer Idiocy Media willingly allows one stupid opinion from one lazy foreigner backpacker to manipulate its institution is beyond any Khmer comprehension.
Khmer Idiocy Media, why are you so easy to be fooled. No wonder they say that Khmer are dumb because you are the smart one as your name is “Khmer Intelligence Media”, but you are dumber than them.
People say that 'the truth hurts', but this is not the truth and you know it.
Please change your name to “Khmer Idiocy Media”, you deserve it.
Khmer Intelligence Media is now officially “Khmer Idiocy Media”
6:49 PM. Many international writers and backpackers also sees Cambodia as one of the most corrupted countries in the world. Mark expressed his freedom of expression by his blog.
Mark wrote what he saw. Mark wasn enjoy his Vietnamese prosetitue in Cambodia or wherever he wants.
6:49 PM, Tell us, do you think Cambodia is the most corruption country in the world and also one of the most poorest countries in the world?
May i suggest you stop attacking KI Media for sharing information but attack Hun Sen and CPP for stealing the nation's resources and crippling the country.
7:01 PM
Before preaching me, do you find anything in the article that says Cambodia is the most corruption country in the world and that’s why people are so lazy, no?
The most I can read ‘Cambodia is the laziest nation in the world’ which is not true and you that too.
Why should I stop attacking the ‘Khmer Idiocy Media’, they claim to be intelligent but they are idiot for attacking their own kind from one crazy backpacker’s opinion.
Are you កុលបុត្រមហានគរខ្មែរ, the poster, if so apologize.
I don’t like Hun Sen either, but there is no mention in the article of Hun Sen and CPP corruption that causes the widespread the laziness.
“6:49 PM, Tell us, do you think Cambodia is the most corruption country in the world and also one of the poorest countries in the world?”
Oh yes I agree, but that is not point of the subject of discussion in the article, it is about the whole nation is lazy.
Don’t shift your discussion from the main subject which is “laziness” but not corruption.
Read his blog about Cambodia here:
http://www.travelingmark.com/country/cambodia/
He is a closed-minded person with plenty of time and a very big mouth. That's his problem so whatever he said whether it is true or not, just take it with a grain of salt. Don't feel too bad about it. White people like to look down on Asians and he is no exception. Ignore him and he will be gone from this planet earth soon given his old age and having sex with prostitutes so too often.
He probably got mad when one of them gave him the virus.
7:34 PM. That was just a suggestion. Why are you so offended? Hun Sen and CPP are the reasons why Khmer are the dumbest nation in Asia.
Dumb Khmer are just cowards. Ignorant of the facts, only hide behind computers blaming the Vietnamese (youn). If DUMB Khmer becomes educated then they will stop voting for Hun Sen, do you agree?
7:34 PM, I suggest you read his blog again to understand why Mark believes Cambodia is the most corrupted countries in the world.
We don’t care much about Mark said, because that is the freedom of expression from one lousy, lazy, crazy and sex craving backpacker’s opinion.
KI posts his article so that they can shift the blame to the current government corruption.
But they did not read the article very carefully before posting and now it is backfired.
Next time read it very carefully before posting.
I wonder if we let your organization taking over the current government for 2 years what would happen to Cambodia and its people.
I know you work hard for the good of Cambodia but carelessness should not be part of your effort.
8:34 PM
“Ignore him and he will be gone from this planet earth soon given his old age and having sex with prostitutes so too often.”
You hit the nail right on the head, so why couldn’t KI ignore it just like you and I can?
YES, I AM A LAZY CAMBODIAN MAN. I MEAN I REALLY AM, BUT SO WHAT? I ONLY WORK 10 HOURS A DAY FOR 8 HOUR PAY. THAT'S WHAT HAPPEN TO TEACHERS IN THE USA. IF I CAN AFFORD TO BE LAZY AND NEVER GO HUNGRY, I WOULD DO THAT.
TO ALL KHMERS IT'S OK BE LAZY BECAUSE THERE IS NO OPPORTUNITY. I USUALLY CALL THE PEOPLE IN THE WEST LAZY AS WELL. YES, THEY ARE LAZY COMPARING TO ASEAN WORKERS. ASEAN (INCLUDING CAMBODIAN) ARE MODEL CITIZEN IN THE US. WHY? BECAUSE THEY WORK HARD WHEN THEY HAVE OPPORTUNITY.
P.S. MY WIFE STILL THINKS THAT I AM A LAZY TEACHER.THAT'S AN ASSUMPTION.
Well (hopefully, I am the the last one to comment on this), perhaps KI-Media wants all of us to vent out by taking it out on MARK before Valentine when we all should be thinking about and concentrating on our loves ones..
Good or bad, take it as a civilized Khmer and move on...
BTW, I haven't seen my Valentine yet here on KI-Media.
ចាស ឬទេ តើអាចឆ្លើយបានទេ បាទ?
អក
Our love ones*
Mark is probably one of those fat white guys going around Asia looking for children to have sex with. He should be ashame of himself. This lazy ass was supposed to be working and instead he just travels around the globe looking for cheap sex and children to abuse. What a white trash. Next time when white people ask you for direction, always give them the wrong direction. That's what I did a few times and I felt satisfaction.
Did Mark forget to take his medication or did the doctor prescribe him a wrong medication? Either way, go back to the hospital Mark. You really need more treatment or perhaps stronger dose of medication.
you idio ther are moto taxi! you eaxpect them to drive all the time in two whells????? Go talk to your mother, fool.
May it's a wake up call?
The truth hurts and we don't take criticism very well, Mark!
Where does Mark live in USA,Europe,
Canada,Australia or some places around the world?
If he lives in USA,people know That
how many white or black families
are staying in welfare.
Mark is the laziest man in the
world.He spent welfare money to
travel to Cambodia.
If Mark can open his stinky mouth
to say about Khmer people,I can say
what I want to say too.
Mark! what you thought is wrong because you knew khmer a little bit. can you ask yourself how many countries in the world can do the Temple having a lot of complex beautiful symmetric cutting pictures like in Angkor Watt? those things in the wall of angkor showing that khmer not lazy and I thought no...no countries can compared with khmer or Cambodia in previous century.
The great thing I want to tell you is Cambodia slowing down because of neighbor contries but khmers are not lazest as you said.what you saw is khmer have no jobs cos leader never cared about them.Rethink about this and corect your thought .thanks mark for letting me know about your ideas.
Dear, if you have a glimp look on among Khmer people you aren't hesitate to spit poisonous LAZZZ word on Khmer people. Another hand if you spend a litle more time thinking wisely on these people a symply look at their faces actually, isn't cause by their personal means, this is because of Cambodian actual social issue has been playing a big roll to the less oportunity Khmer peole. That means lack of information leading how to organize their lives, ideas exet...this is the main problem in that Kingdom nowaday, I am sorry my point of view rejecting of using term infact that thay are one of the nation LAZZZZ in the world.
P.K.L back!
Of course we Khmer people are lazy, because we love singing and dancing.
How about you Mr. Mark ?
You love to blame and attack others. The way you said. sure you are a stupid Thai, because Thai always blamed and attacked the Khmer in Thailand.
This is the worst racist slurs and label I ever read. I think Khmer can make a lawsuite against this racist ass mark and ban its agence travelmark.com out of Cambodia
Some points this loser writer was right. He was totally dumfuck for generalize whole nation. He must be marry to our enemies, his bitch cunt or gay boyfriend may be has a lot of inputs.
For every negative point, the UNEMPLOYED JOBLESS POT-BELLIED BALDHEADED CHEAP CLOTHES WEARING MARK the IDIOT said about the Cambodians, Mark the idiot was describe himself. He is the MOST LAZIEST sh*thead in the entire world. According to him therefore, this means that his every member of his immediate and extended families are ugly and fat and unempolyed and of course the laziest in the world.
no wonder we treat mark as stupid and ignorant because he does sound that way. what a bigot, racist nincapoop! now mark is a good example why we don't learn nor teach our kids to be like him. go back to your cave, mark! cambodia don't need you, ok!
i have a feeling that this mark guy was strongly influenced by siem and youn, the historical enemies of khmer people and nation. actually, the stealer of khmer lands and territories are siem and youn, they are like opportunistic parasites. i think mark must've traveled and live in thailand or vietnam with his siem ladyboys or his viet/youn whore. so, don't come to cambodia, mark stay with your influences in thailand and vietnam, ok!
Probably, some of rich individualists who hated Khmen and paid to Mr. Mark to write something that insulted the most for Khmen people. It is skeptical.
The truth hurts, and it makes us react. We can deny and find excuses all we want, but, remember this, at the end of the day, the truth will always be there. It is human nature that we generally accept positive truth, but rarely that we accept negative truth regarding our life.
Another kone Khmer.
well, the point is he generalized cambodia as the laziest people on earth. that's where i draw the line, ok! mark needs to go back to school to study the proper usage of language and communicating properly. you just don't generalized cambodia like this, especially if you are a guest of cambodia, you respect our differences, otherwise, like i said before, stay home to avoid trauma, ok!
I like the guys who burnt down his house after he got home drunk and found out that his wife did have the rice cooked for him.
Bottom up, buddies!
Chinese immigrants came to Cambodia a with only a salty crab leg and cloth on their back and not only they survived but they thrived very well in Cambodia, why?. Because they worked their ass off.
Cambodia is the land of the plenty.
There's fish, where there's water.
Some plants, you don't have to plant them, just eat it and shit in the field, they will grow and thrive by them self.
Some region like Battambang, people sow rice in the field and never have to set an eye on it again until the harvest season.
In any country, if you work hard, you will be rewarded.
Kone Kat Chin
Hey Kone Kat Chin @2:42AM,
Don't ever forget, along with what you have dscribed, comes the dark side of the "Chen" win-win trade/commerce mentality: CORRUPTION. Chen would corrupt anybody anywhere on this planet earth just to get ahead, thus the very old Khmer saying: at dawn you knuckle "Chen" in the head, around sun sets, the "Chen" got you handcuffed!
Hope it helps....
Most of you Khmer are still dumb and never had education. Mark did generalised when he said Khmer are the laziest nation, but his points are proven. Khmer are the most uneducated nation in Asia.
The very Ankor Wat they claims they built durign the Ankorean Era now belongs to Apsara Guards, meaning CPP and Vietnamese Business.
Don't you uneducated Khmer understand Mark's point?
He, himself, is the laziest writer on earth. If he could have done more research you would have understand more about these people; thus I named this guy, Mark, the laziest person of all on earth.
5:32 AM - Hey Evil! Are you Vietnamese gook? How dare you? You don't belong here. Are your parents, grandparents and Yuon/Vietnamese settlers were illegally entered Cambodia territory?
You and your parents and grand parents are illegally Yuon/Vietnamese thieves in Cambodia!!! Your CPP Officials are Yuon/Vietnamese, such as Hor Nam Hong (Khmer Rouges Prinson Chief - Secret Yuon agent hiding among Khmer Rouges), Sok An, Hun Sen's Yuon wife, Sok Kong, Men Sam An, Khiev Kanarith, and more under the stinky leadership and fake power of Hun Sen was illegally installed by your Vietnamese/Yuon evils from Hanoi after kicking out Pen Sovan (Khmer Hero). The U.S., UN, EU, Canada, Brazil, and other powerful countries do not know your Evil Yuon/Vietnamese master-minded folks coming from Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh who have done the dirty secret plans in blind eyes. Your Yuon/Vietnamese CPP officials have shut up Noun Chea and top Khmer Rouges leaders in ECCC who confessed to tell the truth about your evil Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh. Khmer people in the world know it all about you (evil Yuon) and your evil Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh masters.
Do you like to be called that you are an Evil Thief who is so smart to steal Khmer property and lands to be your own? Will you deserve to be crushed and shot right into your head because are Yuon thief in Cambodia? You have such a big mouthpiece from the first place. You'd rather be dead by now.
Hey Kone Kat Chin @2:42AM,
What you said it seems to admire yourself and proud to be Kone Kat Chin, right!!
To me, you meant the shit as Mr. Mark, please do not create hatred among Khmer and Khmer-Kone Kat Chin, we were all born in srok Khmer and you know what I meant.
5:32 AM - Again, are you trying to blame Khmer people who are dumb in general?
Try to understand what you tell Khmer people or just put down Khmer people in general who are dumb including us all above, do you mean that?
I agree with 5:54 AM and 5:54 AM said you sound like Yuon/Vietnamese. Are you Yuon?
Please explain, 5:32 AM.
Wow, reading all the comments above. Chinese, Yuon, even White guy Mark are putting down on Khmer people.
why don't we get rid of Hun Sen, a dumb leader who embarrassed Khmer/Cambodian people. It seems like Chinese-Cambodians born in Srok Khmer don't want to be part of Khmer citizens because of the extreme topic "The Laziest Cambodian Nation in the World."
First, should we blame the corrupted PM Hun Sen the most who makes Cambodian nation so embarrassed in the world?
Secondly, should we get rid of the most corrupted CPP Yuon/Vietnamese Officials under PM Hun Sen (Vietnamese Hanoi dog) such Hor Nam Hong (Khmer Rouges Prison Chief in Beong Krobaek), Sok An, Men Sam An, Sok Kong, Khiev Kanarith, Hun Sen's Yuon wife (a murder of Cambodian Iconic Star Phelika), and other CPP Yuon officials.
Again, since Cambodia nation was called, "the Laziest Nation in the world,", the Communist Vietnamese Leaders and military from Hanoi have no respects to 1991 Peace Agreement in Paris and Hun Sen allowed illegal Vietnamese settlers to stay in Cambodia and allowed Hanoi masters and military interferes with the Cambodia affairs and illegal killed Khmer people/farmers at the border of Cambodia and Vietnam in order to take lands and encroach Cambodia land without the knowledge and interventions of UN and International Communities.
It is time to impeach the illegal Yuon/Vietnamese CPP officials and Hun Sen who failed Cambodia in the world and make the world look down on Khmer/Cambodian Khmer people and Nation. It is not fair for all of us, Khmer people.
Don't vote for CPP!!! Vote for SRP and other real democrat Parties who will lead Cambodian in the right direction.
6:01 AM. Yes I will explain, but i will explain it ONCE. I am not Youn. I am Khmer, born in Khmer and raised in Khmer. As i have mentioned above, Mark's article and blog points out that Hun Sen and CPP are the main problem for our crippling nation, degraded and demeaning. So truth does hurt. But DUMB Khmer are to dumb to admit they are dumb, so they continue to vote for Hun Sen. Do you agree?
I also suggest you DUMB Khmer to read Mark's blog again, before calling him or westerners or educated Khmer a Vietnamese (Youn).
This is all bullshhit. Can't we just all get along? The white guy has humiliated us khmers and yet we are fighting among ourselves. Please know who the real enemy is. We need to stand united and punish the white people in whatever way we can for what they have done to us.
6:51 AM is evil Yuon instead by calling us dumb and putting down Khmer people and yes, we read his website, but we are not dumb.
You are the stupid Viet gook because don't like Viet gook like you to pretend to be Khmer. Is is nice for you to call us dumb Khmer, fucking you evil Yuon gook. Thanks for explaining, stubborn head Yuon evil 6:51 AM calling us dumb Khmer.
OK, dumb 6:51 AM!
6:51 AM,
Are you educated by calling us dumb Khmer? At this point, you are a dumb Yuon because you evil create the madness and painfulness in Khmer people. If Khmer people don't mention like evil you 6:51 AM, then they are not dumb Khmer and they are beautiful Khmer people inside out.
6:51 AM is evil dumb Yuon pretending to be Khmer by having a cold heart and evil mind.
Stop using the words "Dumb Khmer" and you need to words "Dumb Yuon/Vietnamese gook for yourself"
Bye bye bye, Dumb 6:51 AM!
8:15 AM. Exactly, my point. Points proven. DUMB Khmer still calling Westerners Youn and just about everybody Youn. This is why Khmer are the dumbest nation in Asia. This is why no countries can help you DUMB Khmer, if you dont change your mentality.
Dont be a beggar!
You will never understand Mark because he wrote the article while he was smoking pot.
To understand him you have to join him and smoke it and voilà he and you will think the way. And you will understand his dreaming world full of shit.
8:28 AM - Of course, you are Yuon smoking pot with Mark. No one cares about your stupid comment calling us dumb Khmer is a very strong words.
For all Khmer, we should get along and hope we will be a unity as Khmer, whoever was born in Khmer is still Khmer and Khmer soul. Don't let the evil 8:28 AM create the pain and madness in Khmer people and Khmer people.
Yes, we read his website. So, why this evil 8:28 AM keeps fight and use the very bad languages on us Khmer people. You are the only one 8:28 AM who is very awful. Again, you are Yuon, not Mark. You are creating the fight among Khmer people.
We can ask Mark to apologize. He should criticize Yuon, CPP and Hun Sen who have failed Khmer Nation and have made Khmer people so embarrassed.
Just ignore 8:28 AM who is Yuon side by side with CPP Yuou or illegal Yuon settlers.
8:28 AM is very stubborn like Hun Sen.
I have to agree with 8:15 AM, 8:28 AM, 8:44 AM
Mark does not have that typical Anglo look, so he must be one of those dark-skinned European descendants.

Hun Sen is a criminal and Vietnamese Hanoi masters' dog.
8:15 AM, listen! Maybe you’re right to comment on 6:51 AM, I got the word (beggar) “don’t be a beggar!” This word had been used often by commenters of Bangkok post, during the dispute of Preah vihear Temple and I don’t think that Khmer used this word for Khmer, it depends on the circumstances of using.
10:17 AM. That is right. Khmer are so uneducated that even the truth that they are the most uneducated nation in Asia hurts. Let alone accepting that Cambodia is the most corrupted country in the world.
When DUMB Khmer accept what they need to know, then Cambodia can remove Hun Sen and CPP.
But why should any of my words make any sense. Dumb Khmer will continue to vote for Hun Sen for a bag of rice anyway.
Once again, dont be a beggar!
12:04 PM, why do you be nice to Khmer people, good Khmer. Tell, please good Khmer don't be blind. You called dumb, beggars, and just be very professional. So, Khmer people don't take things and get hurt. You need to be respectful. If you want to help, you need to there to join and fight to get rid of the most corrupted dumb CPP Hun Sen and Yuon crooks in this current regime.
Yes, we agree with you. Don't continue to be so mean among us Khmer. You need to know how to encourage and make us feel strongly to be close each others. I think you are wrong to use bad languages to create the pain and discourages Khmer readers or bloggers. It is a suggestion for you. We know what you said, but don't use that bad words on Khmer people, but used bad words the evils who are criminals and killers.
Khmer Yeurng
Correction
10:17 AM and 12:04 PM, why DON'T you be nice to Khmer people, CALLING "good Khmer". Tell THEM, good Khmer THAT "don't be blind." You called THEM dumb, beggars, and SO ON. THAT IS HURTFUL. Just be very professional. So, Khmer people don't take things PERSONAL and DON'T get hurt. JUST BE SENSITIVE TO US ALL KHMER PEOPLE. You need to be respectful, TOO. IT JUST REMIND US IN HIGH SCHOOL, THE TEACHERS WHIPPED AND BEAT THE CHILDREN TO LEARN SOMETHING. THAT DOES NOT HELP OR IS GOING TO HELP ENCOURAGE KHMER CHILDREN LEARN. THE CHILDREN NEED ENCOURAGEMENT AND INSPIRATION AND HAVE FUN TO LEARN. THAT WILL CREATE THE ENEMIES INSIDE KHMER PEOPLE OR CHILDREN.
AS YOU HAVE ALREADY SEEN THAT, HUN SEN IS STUPID AND STUBBORN, KILLING AND HURT HIS OWN PEOPLE BY FOLLOWING THE ORDERS OF HIS COMMUNIST HANOI MASTERS WHO TOLD THIS DUMB PM HUN SEN WHAT TO DO TO HURT KHMER PEOPLE.
If you want to help, you need to there to join and fight to get rid of the most corrupted dumb CPP Hun Sen and Yuon crooks in this current regime.
Yes, we agree with you. Don't continue to be so mean among us Khmer. You need to know how to encourage and make us feel strongly to be close each others.

The welcome remark on his website says it all:
“I Quit Work So I Can Travel. It's Really That Easy.”
Does it sound too good to be true, if it does beware.
In Cambodia if you quit work you are a beggar on the street corner and lazy Mark doest like it one bit.
