Chey Mongkol asks Moeung Son not to meddle in Khmer Surin's effort to teach Khmer language

Mr. Chey Mongkol

KI-Media Note: On 02 October 2010, Mr. Chey Mongkol wrote a letter to Moeung Son, the president of the Khmer Civilization Foundation, not to meddle in effort initiated by Khmer Surin, such as that of Mr. Chey Mongkol, to bring Khmer language education to Surin province. Mr. Chey Mongkol is concerned that Moeung Son’s intention is not necessarily to teach Khmer Surin, but rather to form some sort of movement due to his sentencing by the Hun Sen regime for criticizing the lighting of Ankor Wat temple. Mr. Moeung Son who escaped to France prior to his conviction, has traveled extensively to seek support to have his case overturned. Mr. Moeung Son’s latest attempt to insert himself in the education of Khmer language in Surin is rightfully viewed with suspicion by Khmer Surin who had put tremendous effort in bringing Khmer language back to Surin as they are concerned that Mr. Moeung Son’s intention could undermine their effort.

Dear lok khmuy Mongkul

Khmer Krom and Khmer Surin are our brothers. If they needed our helps, it is up to all Khmer to help them. If Khmer Surin wished to be part of the mainland Khmer, let us support their ambitions. They may start by learning how to read and write in Khmer, but it a start. Learning about the history of Khmer should also be included in their ciriculums. Khmer should praise Khmer Surin for not forgetting and ignoring their root.

Khmer Kandal and Khmer government should help our Khmer Surin brothers with what they can and Khmer Surin should also accept any form of help the Khmer Kandal give them. Moeung Son is trying to help here and many Khmer Surin like Chakri, the monks and other Khmer Surin welcome him with open arms. Hoever, I am dismayed at the objection of Mr. Chey Mongkol. I know Chey Mongkol are trying to help revive the Khmer language in Surin and as such he should welcome any forms of help, not just money, he and his Surin brothers can get from Khmer Kandal. Please unite, Khmer Surin and don't fight among yourselves.
