The Words Of Wisdom Of Khmer Ancestors

      

My Beloved People:

Your goodness and your bravery are the hallmarks of our hope. We, your heroes and your respectful ancestors, never have evil or vengeful wishes towards you and Cambodia. We only have good wishes, tender care and love for you and our khmer people in our hearts. We have no room for harmful thoughts or evil acts to tarnish our good intention for people and country. Our love for you is infinite and pure. We fought for you ! We fought for our next generation ! We fought for protecting our territory !

 We are not sad or embarrassed if you lack material luxuries, but we are truly sad and embarrassed if you are lack of patriotism, weak, cruel, coward and selfish . Our country, Cambodia, is not the only thing to which we owe our allegiance. It is also owed to peace, independence, justice and to humanity.  Patriotism consists not in waving the flag, but in striving that our country shall be righteous as well as strong. 

            

We are glad and contented to see our country be glorious by your hands of devotion.  We are especially proud to see you have become the good and strong people.

With our best wishes to you !
