Exploring Cambodian Culture Cambodia, located in Southeast Asia, offers many rich cultural traditions. These workshops will explore the history, folk arts, dance, myths, language, customs, and music of the Khmer people in Cambodia. The workshops are designed for K-2 students and include four topical modules. The workshops may be presented as part of a "Cluster Week" at Harry Sarak's school. (The Cluster Week concept is based on Joseph Renzulli’s Triad Model of learning for gifted students where students participate in a variety of workshops that emphasize higher-order thinking skills, providing opportunities for creative and productive applications of these skills to real-world situations.) I found lots of excellent Internet resources while researching the Internet to develop this module. You can review resources at my blog Module 1: Cambodia Introduction and Overview Module 2: Celebrating Cambodian Holidays Module 3: Cambodian Monkeys, Dances, and Masks Module 4: Cambodian Shadow Puppets Created by Beth Kanter Back to Cambodia4kids

Angkor Wat tours and Cambodia travel information with the country specialist Cambodian Culture Cambodian traditions and culture are largely defined by the religion of the people where 95% practice Theravada Buddhism. Most Cambodians will try to avoid aggression and confrontation at all costs. Raised voices and loss of temper are extremely unusual in Cambodian life and are rarely productive. If you are inexperienced at travelling in Cambodia or Southeast Asia perhaps you should consider an escorted tour . You will experience a more intimate and fun view of the country with a reliable local at your side and there is less chance of any cultural blunder. The concept of "face", as with most Asian cultures is extremely important and belittling of Cambodians is likely to engender resentment - the use of humor to defuse situations and make light of criticism is very commonly seen. Cambodia is definitely a place where you learn to take a more relaxed approach to life - keep smiling and you will get a lot more done. This buddhist influence can also cause many Khmers to seem fatalistic about their lot in life. The Khmer welcome - a Sompiah Cambodian culture is generally very welcoming. Inviting guests to their house/village/country is important. Even the poorest Khmers will do their best to share food and water with rich foreigners (and the fact that you have made the effort to

Powered by JRank Countries and Their Cultures Countries and Their Cultures Bu-Dr C AMBODIAN AMERICANS by Carl L. Bankston III O VERVIEW The Kingdom of Cambodia is a country of about 8,000,000 people, approximately the size of the state of Missouri, located in Southeast Asia. It is bordered on the west and northwest by Thailand, on the north by Laos, on the east by Vietnam, and on the south by the Gulf of Thailand. The climate is tropical, with monsoon rains from May to October and a dry season from December to March. There is little variation in temperature, which is hot most of the year. There are mountains in the southwest and north, but most of the country consists of low, flat plains. Three-quarters of the land is covered with forests and woodland, and much of the land is cultivated with rice paddies. Cambodia has few roads and bridges, and many of the existing roads and bridges are in poor condition due to years of war and political upheaval. Aside from rice, the main crop, Cambodia also produces rubber and corn. HISTORY Before 1975 almost no people of Cambodian ancestry lived in the United States. The 150,000 Cambodians who immigrated by 1990 settled in the United States as a result of the tragic events in their native country in which the United States was deeply involved. Because Cambodian Americans are such a new part of America, to know something of their history is especially important in order to appreciate their culture and their unique situation.

25. Cambodian Culture Culture, holidays and celebrations in Cambodia Dress code Cambodia shares many of the same attitudes to dress and social taboos with other Southeast Asian cultures. http://www.rikitikitavi-kampot.com/Culture.html

Home Contact us Culture Dress code Cambodia shares many of the same attitudes to dress and social taboos with other Southeast Asian cultures. Cambodians are conservative, and regardless of their means do their very best to keep clean; you'll gain more respect if you're well turned out and modest in your dress. Men should wear tops and women avoid skimpy tops and tight shorts. Behaviour Particularly offensive to Cambodians is any display of public affection between men and women: even seeing foreigners holding hands is embarrassing to them. Weddings Weddings are celebrated with the best food available, drinks, song and dance, and are held outdoors under brightly coloured marquees. Guests are all dressed up for the event, the women wear classic Khmer skirts with laced and sequinned tops. Girls wear brightly coloured frocks and hair and make-up is well taken care of. Men wear dressy trousers with a classic Khmer top and boys wear modern shirts. Often, you are more than welcome to join a wedding and have a drink with the guests. Dress rentals, hair dressers and make-up artists are surprisingly cheap and can be found around most central markets in Cambodia. A small donation towards the food and drinks bill is highly appreciated. Funerals This ritual usually lasts a number of days. Monks chant, friends, family and neighbours condole the grieving family and food and drinks are supplied. The set-up for a funeral can often be confused with the set-up for wedding celebrations.

If you look for cues and take the time to ask questions, you’ll find that you can learn a lot through non-verbal communications.

The majority of Cambodians (nearly 90%) are of Khmer heritage, and an even greater proportion speak the Khmer language, the official language of Cambodia. Other languages spoken include French, Chinese and Vietnamese, with English becoming increasingly important. Religion in Cambodia Thearavada Buddhism is the official religion in Cambodia which is practiced by 95 percent of the population- just like that of Thailand, Burma, Sri Lanka. However, Christianity and Cham Muslim are being active and popular among a large number of population as well in the capital and provinces, showing a sign of growth. Daoism and Confuism are also commonly practiced among the Chinese people. Customs of Cambodia Customary Cambodian teachings include: that if a person does not wake up before sunrise he is lazy; you have to tell your parents or elders where you are going and what time you are coming back home; close doors gently, otherwise you have a bad temper; sit with your legs straight down and not crossed (crossing your legs shows that you are an impolite person); and always let other people talk more than you. Almost all Khmer men and women wear a Buddha pendant in a necklace fashion. There are different pendants for different uses; some are meant for protection from evil spirits, some are meant to bring good luck.

In turn, Cambodia greatly influenced Thailand, Laos and vice versa. Throughout Cambodia's long history, a major source of inspiration was from religion. Throughout nearly two millennium, a 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. Its 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. The first state to benefit from this was Funan.

This can present confusion in schools and in clinics as filing systems and roll calls are developed. The Cambodian name is always spoken and written in the order of last name then first name. For example: if my last name were Soth, and my first name were Sopheap. My full name would be written as Soth Sopheap. Notice, there is no comma used to separate the last name from the first name. My family and friends will call me Sopheap, or by a nick name. In Cambodia my records would be categorized with Soth as my last name. This can cause substantial confusion in the American record keeping system because someone may think my last name is Sopheap because it is called last and use this as the filing name. I could easily end up with two files, one Soth, Sopheap, and another Sopheap, Soth.
