Does Khmer in Kampuchea Krom(now south Vietnam) have the same fair rights to celebrate Cambodia's Independence Day like the Vietnamese living in Cambodia?
It's true, while Vietnamese in Cambodia are free to do whatever they want, our Khmer Krom brothers and sisters have been deprived of their basic rights, they have been persecuted everyday and they have been evicted from their lands constantly. The Cambodian government doesn't care of their plight. Sad really.
we need to shoot these yuon to support khmer krom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Om Ho sa hart nas
