    what she knows best apparently is to promote herself and get her name published, even over the great body of a Khmer hero.

    Cremation is not a good way to send our beloved relatives. We are erasing our Khmer identity. In srok Khmer there are alot of Chinese/Viet memorial sites now. Why we are burning our people? Imagine in a thousand years time archeaologists do excavation. What will they find? You would know the answer. Having said, I disagree with this tradition. Think again, brother and sister.
