Khmer Surin: A Journey Through Time and Culture

Thank you for the video on Khmer history. I am proud of my 🇰🇭Khmer heritage and of all Khmer living overseas in Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam.

It’s interesting that many Khmers viewed or know of Khmer history only during the time of Angkor. Khmers, Mon, Kuys and other Austroasiatic speaking peoples have been in Southeast Asia likely since they arrived there approximately 60,000 years ago. It takes time for a people to form societies, traditions and customs and then be able to build city states, kingdoms and then an empire.

There are Surin’s Suy/Kuy individuals who watch Khmer related videos and somehow think that the video is about them. They seem to have this identity issue of being Suys and Thais, yet would claim to be the Khmers that built the Khmer Empire. The indentity crisis often exhibits itself in dislike/hatred of Khmers in Srok Khmer. Interestingly, Khmers, Mons, Bunoung, and Kuys are closely related. I think it’s important for Khmers to learn about our cousins and to understand their thoughts. Clearly they have an interest in Khmer history and culture or else they would not try to lay claim to it. I think many people, Khmers included, would be interested if they would make videos about themselves and their history.

The invasions of the Thais from southern China into the Khmer Empire is the single most destructive force that ever happened to the Khmer people! The second would be the invasions of the Vietnamese. So much of Thai culture is borrowed from the Khmers (Food, martial arts, dance, music, writing, arts, sculptures, architecture, etc) were taken from the Khmers, but sadly are being misidentified as being “Thai” simply because the Thais named them after themselves instead of give credit to their original creators - the Khmers. The Thais have taken so much from the Khmer culture you could say they have taken over the Khmers’ identity! That is how much the Khmers have influenced the Thais, but not too many people know about it because the Thais simply called it their own and even bragged to the world how the Khmers have stolen their culture when the reality is actually the opposite!

[@user-bm6cu6vo5m]

They are not called Khmer Surin; they are called Khmer Ler (ខ្មែរលើ) or Khmer living in the high land. We refer Khmer Surin to the Khmer living in Surin Province, and there are Khmer living in other provinces in Modern day Thailand and they don't like it if we call them Khmer Surin because they do not live in Surin province.

Khmer surin is not the correct term for Khmers in Thailand but many many Khmers use this term incorrectly. Khmers live all over Thailand eastern part. They live in Buriram, Sisaket, Surin, Nakhon Ratchasima, Lopburi etc etc. since these territories were lost to Siam. However, Khmers in Cambodia and abroad keep lumping them all as just Khmer Surin which is wrong wrong 😑

I think most Khmer know more about Khmer Surin because they are still somewhat closers to Cambodia and can mostly communicate with each other in Khmer language, again that’s only my opinion ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

​​@@MinhTran-wn3xuI'm Surin people. The only accent we understand are those that live in Northern Cambodia like Oddar Meanchey or Banteay Meanchey people. The rest of Cambodia is am alien to us. Even in Surin itself there are different dialects used. There are Khmer people in Siam because those are the descendants of the Varman Chenla Kingdoms that used to ruled the area. But these Khmer people have all been assimilated and married local Mon and Kuy people thus creating a different culture and language. This is the birth of the Mahidharapura Dynasty in Isan that came to rule the Angkor empire. Many of those Cambodians know nothing about the history of Thailand but just claim everything is Khmer!
