ReplyDeleteDon't mention about danger or hazard to poor Khmer peasants, this is nothing compared to walking in the minefields of rural Cambodia.
ReplyDeleteBesides, poor and powerless Khmers are no stranger to being overburdened by oppression, pain, and suffering.
This is a perfect summary of our people's daily struggle. It should be the eye-opening to the rulers their families, and cronies.
The question to ask is:
How much longer do they think the Khmer workers and peasants will go on living like BUFFALOS?

The load reminds me of Hun Sen's wife.
