Brazil's Vinegar Uprising Triggers Khmer Prahok Revolution?



The New York Times | 21 June 2013

Like other demonstrators, he had brought some vinegar. The idea is that breathing through a cloth soaked in vinegar neutralizes the effects of tear gas, though this doesn’t really seem to work. The police claim that the product can be used to make bombs, but this is even less true.

Over the next week, as the protests spread to cities around the country, the arrest became a mocking rallying cry. Someone started a campaign on Facebook to legalize vinegar. Another created a “V for Vinegar” page, a reference to the graphic novel “V for Vendetta.” The “Salad Uprising” had begun...

On Thursday night one million Brazilians poured into the streets of some 80 cities around the country. “Bring your salad. Salt and olive oil are optional.” That’s our message.

[How about it, fellow Cambodians?

How about a PRAHOK REVOLUTION?!]

I would join the Prahok Revolution in Phnom Penh for sure if it can be grilled to provide a good and heightened flavour.

I will bring some cucumbers if folks at KI Media bring some well-cooked rice wrapped in banana leaf and Mr. School of Vice can get us some traditional Khmer (sour) palm wine!

See you all in Phnom Penh when it happens!
