Let me clarify further since you don't seem to grasp it. So I chose to reply to this one instead.

As far as the world knows, Kampuchea Krom is the land of Vietnam. It doesn't belong to Cambodia. You can bring the history to discuss as you want. Khmer empire lost many parts of its land. If you believe that khmer empire thing, the outcome is still the same. Those parts of land don't belong to Cambodia. Now, you believe that the French took it away from Cambodia and gave it to Vietnam.

To them, they did good deeds for their revolutionary. It took alot of sacrafice to win the war. You and I don't like what they did. However, we cannot take away that accomplishment from them. That's theirs. We, as human beings, saw the killings by the Khmer Rouge as wrong things. However, they (the khmer rouge) didn't see it that way. > That's enough of the nonsense. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cambodia Discussion (CAMDISC) - www.cambodia.org" group.
