Culture of Cambodia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Traditional Khmer dance The culture of Cambodia has had a rich and varied history dating back many centuries, and has been heavily influenced by India and China Throughout Cambodia 's long history, a major source of inspiration was from religion. Throughout nearly two millennium, Cambodians developed a unique Khmer belief from the syncreticism of indigenous animistic beliefs and the Indian religions of Buddhism and Hinduism . Indian culture and civilization, including its language and arts reached mainland Southeast Asia around the 1st century A.D. It is generally believed that seafaring merchants brought Indian customs and culture to ports along the Gulf of Thailand and the Pacific while trading with China .

Birthdays Khmer Language and Literature Language Literature Cambodian Proverbs Festivals Cambodian New Yea r The Cambodian New Year takes place from April 13th -15th, during the dry season when farmers do not work in the fields. Astrologers determine the exact time and date by calculating the exact moment the new animal protector (tiger, dragon, or snake) arrives. Cambodians spend the entire month of April in preparation for the celebration, cleaning and decorating their house with candles, lights, star shaped lanterns and flowers. During the first three days, everyone travels to the pagodas to offer food to the monks. Top ^ Pchum Ben Pchum Ben is a religious ceremony in September when everyone remembers the spirit of dead relatives. For fifteen days, people in Cambodian villages take turns bringing food to the temples or pagodas. On the fifteenth and final day, everyone dresses in their finest clothing to travel together to the pagodas. Families bring overflowing baskets of flowers, and children offer food and presents to the monks. Everyone says prayers to help their ancestors pass on to a better life. According to Khmer belief, those who do not follow the practices of Pchum Ben are cursed by their angry ancestors. Top ^ Water Festival Another very colorful festival is the Water Festival or the Festival of the Reversing Current. It takes place in late October or early November and marks the reversal of the Tonle Sap River so that it once again flows south from the Tonle Sap Lake into the Mekong River. The highlight of the three-day festival is the boat races that are held in Phnom Penh. Individual villages build their own boats by hollowing out a log to make a dugout canoe that is rowed by as many as forty people! The prow and the stern of the canoe turn upward and the prow is painted with an eye, just like the war vessels on the wall of the temples at Angkor Thom. On the first two days of the festival, pairs of boats race each other. At sunset on the third day, there is a big race and everyone believes that the river is happy, the fish will be plentiful and the rice crop will flourish.

W66 Home Destinations About My World66 ... [Add Section] Culture in Cambodia Edit This People Cambodians comprise a variety of kids who are commonly called Khmer. The Khmer constitute about 91 percent of the population. The population also includes a diversity of other ethnic backgrounds: Chinese, Vietnamese, Chams, and hilltribes, called Khmer Roeu. The Khmer are believed to have lived in the region from about the 2nd century CE. They may constitute a fusion of Mongul and Melanesian elements. They have been mainly influenced over the centuries by the powerful Indian and Japanese kingdoms. The Khmer-Loeu - or upland-Khmer - are one of the main tribal groups and live in the forested mountain zones, mainly in the North-East. Traditionally, the Khmer-Loeu were semi-nomadic and practiced slash and burn agriculture. In recent years, because of their increasing numbers, they have turned to settled agriculture and adopted many of the customs of the lowland Khmer. There are about 500.000 Cham-Malays, descended from the The Chams of the royal kingdom of Champa, based in the present day central Vietnam. They now constitute the single largest ethnic minority in the country. The Chams were badly persecuted during the Pol Pot regime and their population more than halved. They are Muslims and their spiritual centre is Chur-Changvra near Phnom Penh. The Chams are traditionally cattle traders, silk weavers and butchers. The Chinese migrated in the 18th and 19th century to Cambodia, where most of them became involved in commerce. During the Pol Pot years and later many Chinese left the country or were killed. Today there is a population of about 100.000 left in Cambodia. Estimated 200.000 Vietnamese live in the country today. The southern part of Cambodia has always had many inhabitants of Vietnamese decent as well as the area around Phnom Penh.

Cambodge, which comes from the Khmer word Khmer as a noun or adjective can refer to the Cambodian language, people, or culture and thus suggests an ethnic and linguistic identity more than a political entity. From 1970 to 1975, the country was known as the Khmer Republic (KR). Location and Geography. Cambodia lies between Thailand and Vietnam in mainland southeast Asia, with a smaller stretch of the northern border adjoining Laos. The most central region culturally and economically is the lowland flood plain of the Mekong River and Tonle Sap Lake. The Sap River meets the Mekong at Phnom Penh, where the river soon divides again into the Bassac and the Mekong, which flow through southern Vietnam to the South China Sea. Although Cambodia also has a coastline on the Gulf of Thailand, the coast is separated from the central flood plain by mountains; only since the 1950s have railroads and roads provided ready access to the coastal port towns. The economy is dominated by wet rice agriculture. The iconic image of the countryside is one of rice paddies among which are scattered sugar palms. Until recently, much of the area outside the flood plains was forested.

References Co Verbal Communication Co Verbal Communication Paralanguage or coverbal communication refers to the vocal cues that accompany spoken language. It is not what we say, but how we say it, encompassing the tone and emphasis of the spoken words. Cambodian Culture American Majority Culture The tone of voice is non tonal. Raising the voice and getting angry is considered impolite and bad manners. Self-control is valued; therefore, people who do show anger are not respected. NOTE: Recent history has made Cambodians reserved and cautious in their daily behavior. The tone of voice is low pitched. People usually use a soft-spoken tone in daily conversation and will only raise their voice in tense or hostile situations.

Cambodian Culture " When the culture extinguishes, the Nation will disappear. When the culture is magnificent, the Nation is prosperous". Khmer proverb When we talk about development, we often mention about changes in people's behaviors and practice. A culture of a Nation determines a range of people's behaviors and practice. Cambodian culture is characterized by: Cambodian Traditional practices Tradition (in Khmer: Propeyni) is the set of common practice in Cambodia, which valued by most Khmer people as a good thing to be maintained. Habits/patterns (in Khmer: Tumneam tumLap) are set of norms or behaviors that were practiced by many Cambodians in the past, but they lost their values and are currently being practiced partly by the Cambodian society. Tradition has higher status than a pattern. The common greeting to each other is Sampeah (putting palms together as in prayer). The high of the bow determines the level of greeting, examples (from low high): a lower status person – friends and colleagues - higher status person- parents – King – monks – god (go

CAMBODIAN CULTURE LEARN ABOUT ANOTHER CULTURE There is so much to say about the rich Cambodian Culture. We believe that if one is going to be a "Citizen Diplomat" and work side by side with someone from another culture, then he or she must know more about that person's culture. This page will help you do this. Hopefully you too will better appreciate the rich Cambodian Culture. Something to think about... When we were in Cambodia, some of us kept singing, "like the mouse loves cheese" - even though the words clearly read RICE. This is an example of ethnocentrism - or having a tendency to see your culture first. Still today, our teacher says cheese sometimes! Learning more about another culture is one of the best things to do for citizen diplomacy. Congressman

19. Readers Submissions: The Cambodian Culture Shock The first thing I'll say about Cambodia is that on first impressions the place makes you feel like you are in one huge brothel. Is that a good thing? http://www.stickmanbangkok.com/reader/reader59.html

Stickman's guide to B a n g k o k Reader's Submissions: The Cambodian Culture Shock By Warlord France Hotel Guide The first thing I'll say about Cambodia is that on first impressions the place makes you feel like you are in one huge brothel. Is that a good thing? Well I guess that depends on your point of view? If you're reading Stick's website then for you, it most probably is a good thing. I was travelling with a mate around South East Asia towards the end of the year 2000 and we landed at Phnom Penh airport after flying in from Saigon. $20 later and a shiny new visa in the passport, we scored a cab into the city and checked into the Narin Guest House. You'll have to forgive me but I can't remember many specific road names of the places I'm going to mention. yum yum Stickman says: I too enjoyed visiting Cambodia and if a certain Mr Sharpless has anything to do with it, I'll probably go back over and visit again. I too found it a fascinating place, but the situation with the girls there was somewhat troubling. Those Vietnamese girls were not there of their own volition and some of the girls seemed horribly young. More than a few girls admitted to myself and my travelling companion that they were younger than the 15 mark you mentioned. There is a lot of poverty and some of the general cleanliness and hygiene was poor, yet seeing people fiddling with these young girls in a bar was far more disgusting.
