Do not listen to any a Vietnamese suppoter. Why ? The VIETNAMESE CHARACTER as described in this book as : " THIEF, LIAR : BOOK " GIAI PHONG " by T Terzani describes a Vietnamese as THIEF, A LIAR, A KILLER, A DECEIVER , a sleeper .....
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. Cambodia as today remains occupied by Vietnam against the 10 UN resolutions calling Vietnam to quit , not respected . --- On Wed, 9/17/08, Soriya <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Soriya <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: Cambodia’s ethnic Vietnamese cross the border to go to school To: "Cambodia Discussion (CAMDISC) - www.cambodia.org" <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, September 17, 2008, 3:45 AM pvi, Since the Vietnamese parents in Cambodia can send their children to schools in Vietnam & have them back home in Cambodia every school day freely & openly, I believe it's not illegal in Cambodia to do so. However I urge the Cambodian government to encourage the Vietnamese parents to send their children to Cambodian schools in Cambodia, and, if necessary, to offer them incentives to do so. Without having attended Cambodian schools & without having had Cambodian friends, those kids when they become adults will most likely not love Cambodia. >From my own experience in Cambodia up to 1975, Vietnamese Cambodians who went to Cambodian schools & had Cambodian friends loved Cambodia & didn't think of themselves as Vietnamese at all. They thought of themselves as Cambodians, not Vietnamese. They spoke Khmer fluently, exactly like the pure Khmers did. They took the side of Cambodia in every Cambodia-Vietnam conflict, whether capitalist Vietnam or communist Vietnam. Some even joined the Lon Nol Khmer Republic armed forces to fight the Vietcongs (& later on the Khmer Rouge). (The same was true for the Chinese Cambodians who went to Cambodian schools & had Cambodian friends.) (I like to draw attention to the fact that these were pure Vietnamese & pure Chinese, not the mixed- raced Khmer-plus-Chinese-or-Vietnamese-or-all-3 Cambodians.) The same can't be said about the Vietnamese (or Chinese) who didn't go to Cambodian schools & didn't have Cambodian friends.
