IN CAMBODIA OCCUPIED BY VIETNAM
Again here are my solutions to this problems:
PRESIDENT REAGAN INSISTS THROUGH 10 UN RESOLUTIONS
1. that the KR regime must not allowed to come back to power in Cambodia
2. that Vietnam cease her occupation of Cambodia followed by total withdrawal
of Viet troops from Cambodia.
VIETNAM INVASION & OCCUPATION OF CAMBODIA : 1979-2008
Nearly 30 years, under Vietnam rule of Cambodia, Cambodian youth are denied
minimum of education and jobs that result in suicide, TRADE OF VIEGINITY ,
robbery,CRIMES ACROSS CAMBODIA EVERYDAY , due to hunger,injustice, and
unemployement.
10 UN RESOLUTIONS,(1979-1988) VOTED BY 116 UN MEMBER COUNTRIES ,CALL VIETNAM TO
CEASE HER OCCUPATION OF CAMBODIA & REMOVE ALL HER TROOPS FROM THE COUNTRY ARE
NOT RESPECTED. SUCH AS THESE :

91-21 with 29 abstentions.

Tharath Eang uses a wide-bladed knife to slice a fish diagonally, scoring the
flesh with cuts a few inches apart.
The cuts, he explains, will help the tilapia cook faster.
He tosses the gutted fish – head, tail and skin intact – into the deep fryer.
While the fish fries, Eang’s wife Souvanna prepares a sauce to accompany it.
The sauce mixes tamarind, tomato, basil, garlic and other spices.
“You have to do it right, or don’t put it on the menu,” says Tharath, who takes
pride in cooking the traditional food of his native Cambodia, the way he
remembers his mother cooking it. “What we do here, we do authentically.”
The Eangs opened Mitapeap Khmer Restaurant on Tacoma’s East Side in December to
showcase the food they grew up eating. Mitapeap is a Khmer word that means
“friendship” and “welcome to old friends.”
The restaurant is a family operation, with the Eangs handling all the cooking
and their teenage son Aalex waiting tables when he’s not in school.
Tharath, 40, a former delivery driver, and Souvanna, 38, who once worked in a
dental clinic, both grew up in the Battambang area of Cambodia, not far from
the border of Thailand. Both fled with their families from Cambodia’s
oppressive government to Thai refugee camps in the late 1970s, then to the
United States.
“When we came here, it felt like we were in heaven,” says Souvanna. “Everything
was beautiful.”
Her family immigrated first to Virginia, but they disliked the cold winters..
So after hearing about Tacoma from a family friend, the family relocated. The
cross-country bus trip took three or four days, Souvanna remembers, with her
newborn sibling crying all the way.
Tharath’s family moved first to Ilwaco, on the Washington coast, where a
Catholic church sponsored them.. But there were few other Asian families in
Ilwaco, so Tharath’s family moved to South Bend, Pacific County, and Raymond,
where Tharath graduated from high school, then to Tacoma.
Tharath and Souvanna met in Tacoma in 1989.
The couple decided to open Mitapeap, their first restaurant, at the urging of
friends.
“Friends would come to our house to eat and they’d say, ‘Your food is good. Why
not think about opening a restaurant?’” Souvanna says.
The Eangs dined at Asian restaurants around town before Tharath decided he and
Souvanna could do as well or better.
While there are many Thai and Vietnamese restaurants in Tacoma, Cambodian
restaurants are rare. The Eangs describe the food of their homeland as
somewhere between the food of Thailand and China – with a dash of French
influence, left over from colonial days.
“If you like Thai food, you will love Camobdian food,” Tharath says.
The Eangs use spices familiar from other types of Asian cooking, including
lemongrass, curry and ginger. “I julienne the ginger,” says Tharath. “I use it
as a vegetable.” But they also add flavors such as tamarind and turmeric.
The menu offers nearly two dozen entrees and a variety of soups, salads and
appetizers, with fish and seafood dishes prominent. Among them:
Prahut trei: Deep-fried ground fish patty seasoned with garlic, lemongrass and
other spices.
Ngoim Sadao Kreung Samot: Seafood salad featuring shrimp, squid, mussels and
preserved fish
Sngao Chruok Trei: Fish soup with lemongrass and other herbs in a lime broth
Trei andang chean: Deep-fried Cambodian-style catfish
Trei chean: Fried whole tilapia with house sauce
Tharath says fish plays an important role in Cambodian cuisine. In his home
country, fish are everywhere, he says.
“In Cambodia, there’s a saying that if there is water, there are fish,” he
says. “If there is a little puddle, there are fish in there. You can find fish
in the backyard, or under the house when it rains.”
Although Cambodians love to eat meat, he says, cattle are often used as draught
animals, so killing a cow for food isn’t often considered. Chickens are needed
to produce eggs – and more chickens. So chicken meat is also an infrequent menu
item.
Fish fills in the gaps, Tharath explains.
And at Mitapeap Khmer, it plays a starring role.

Recipe from Mitapeap Khmer Restaurant
Trei Chean
Fried whole tilapia with side sauce
1 whole tilapia fish, cleaned
Sauce:
Medium tomato
Several basil leaves
Several cilantro leaves
1 jalapeno pepper
Roasted chopped garlic (from a jar)
Ground tamarind, to taste
Splash of fish sauce
Start with a cleaned whole tilapia. (Thaw it first if it’s frozen.)
Score the fish body with a knife, making cuts an inch or two apart, but not
slicing all the way through.
Deep fry the fish whole (including head and tail) until the meat is cooked and
the skin is crispy, at least 10 minutes.
While the fish is frying, chop sauce ingredients together. Think of the sauce
as a kind of salsa to get the mix of ingredients correct.
Serve sauce atop cooked fish.
