KI-Media loves to hear from you, and we're giving you a bullhorn. We just ask that you keep things civil. Please leave out personal attacks, do not use profanity, ethnic or racial slurs, or take shots at anyone's sexual orientation or religion. We thank you for your cooperation!
Dear My Brother School Of Vice, OR KUN LOK SCHOOL OF VICE , I remember vividly the image of LOK THETH SAMBATH , The handsome and famous sentimentally singer during the aggression of the North Vietnamese and Vietcong who were authorized to use our KHMER teritory as their safe haven santuary by our STUPID KING SIHANOUK.A Special moment of silence and the tribute with high salute for our Brave KHMER people who lost their lives in defending our country from the invasion of our long time historic enemies. With our Respects and Regards The YOUNG KHMER REPUBLIC
Thank you for dropping by and leaving your courteous and kind comments.
Mr Thet Sambath is/was indeed a fine singer, and on top of that many of his songs are nationalistic in tone, reflecting undoubtedly his love of his people and country at a time of grave national strife and emergency. I can imagine many youths at the time having listened to his patriotic songs and might then have felt duty bound to leave home, family and studies behind to join up with the cause of national defence.
Despite my keen interest in the music of that era, Mr Thet Sambath, Ms Sim Touch etc. [to name just two!] are relatively new 'discoveries' for me, having learned of their musical existence only a couple of months ago through this column! Regardless, I would have loved and treasured knowing them, and or listening to their songs and being their dedicated fan, just as I have been of Mr Sinn Sisamouth, Ms Ros Serey Sothea, Ms So Savoeun, Ms Huy Meas, Mr In Yeng, Mr Sos Math, Mr Ung Nary [another recent discovery!], and I should add Ms Pen Ron also. And that's about it in a summary!
I'm sure there are many more distinguished names and artists of the war and pre-war eras, and I ask readers for their forgiveness if I have not mentioned their names. I will try, however, to make up for this lack of knowledge and ignorance through the perpetuation of their legacies and noble 'golden' memories, and that, hopefully, the 'soil' [especially, the youth of today] proves sufficiently fertile and rich when the seeds are sown...
