Welcome
Cambodian Dance Dance is divided into two categories in Cambodian Culture,Classical Dance, and Folk Dance. Before 1970 Classical Dance was really only seen by Royalty. The folk dances were done by people in the villages. They show the activities of every day life. A popular dance we learned in the gym and music classes was the Roam Vung. The Roam Vung is a dance done in a circle around a table. The music sounds like American popular music because it uses guitars,drums,and key boards. These are the dances that we are learning for our Cambodian New Year celebration at the Butler School. Interview of Angkor Dance Troupe Dancing is an important part of Cambodian life because it is a spiritual connection to Cambodian music. The dancers of the Angkor Dance Troupe learned the dances by practicing a lot. They would start at the age of six and practice in the evening and do school work in the morning. It is like school because they learned for four years then went to middle school, then when they were done middle school they went to high school. They felt a need to teach kids because they wanted to pass down traditions so that the Cambodian traditions will not die. They teach classical and folk dances.The classical dances were always performed for the royal families. The folk dances deal with every day life like farming. Some dances include the coconut, the magic scarf dance, and the monkey dance. Each dance has its own meaning. The coconut dance represents the south- west, water, and soap.

by Anthony Healy How culpable are tourists in the looting of Cambodian temples? I was concerned about poverty-stricken peasants forced to loot temples in an attempt to find a better quality of life. When I voiced these concerns to a senior Cambodian diplomat, he roared with laughter. This, he said, was cocktail party romanticism. Temples are not looted by local peasants, who revere the holiness of these sites, but by organized and efficient teams of bandits... How culpable are tourists in the looting of Cambodian temples? A few weeks ago I attended a cocktail party in Hong Kong . On a small wooden pedestal in the sitting room was a stone carving of the head of Buddha. Our hostess informed us that it was 14th century and from Cambodia. She tossed the information out with what she must have thought was aplomb and left to mingle with the other guests.
In the small group around the statue, a discussion followed as to the ethical implications of purchasing such an item, something it’s relatively easy to do in

CAMBODIA: CAMBODIAN ARTS
Deeply woven into the fabric of Cambodian culture is its court and folk dance and music. It is through Khmer traditional performing arts that the mythology and history of its people is passed from generation to generation.
Visitors to the great temples of Angkor can see the story of Cambodian people come to life on the bas sculptures depicting the celestial Apsara dancers, monkeys, and kings.
Throughout the eighties and into the early nineties, ongoing political turmoil and economic instability plagued the country. In 1999 Cambodia experienced its first full year of peace in thirty years, which has resulted in increased international investment in the economically devastated country.
PRESERVATION of TRADITIONAL CAMBODIAN ART FORMS
For Khmer culture, its challenge in maintaining a transnational existence is to recapture material before it becomes completely inaccessible or distorted by time. Artists and scholars need to be able to sustain their work at multiple locations both in Cambodia and in the U.S. Early efforts to join Cambodia-based and U.S-based artists and scholars, who hold the knowledge of traditional Cambodian art forms, need to be reinforced and repeated consistently to insure conservation and growth of the traditional culture. Documentation of the art produced through these efforts needs to be completed, organized with existing resources, and made accessible across geographic boundaries.

    Cambodian Cultural Profile
    Compiled by EthnoMed. Geography Cambodia borders Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam in the southeastern part of Asia. Before 1970 Cambodia was fairly rich in natural and agricultural resources. Cambodia, unlike most Southeast Asian countries, enjoyed a stable export business and shipped rice, rubber, coal, and cotton worldwide. Many people lived in small villages near waterways, the majority working in agriculture. Traditionally, high status was given only to Buddhist monks and important government officials. Traditional values included a strong family identity, respect for ancestors and the past and a desire for smooth interpersonal relationships, i.e., nonconfrontational in disagreement, tolerance for ambiguity, and willingness to accept things the way they were (Kinzie, Fredrickson, Ben, Fleck and Karls, 1984). [top] History and Politics In contrast to this solid economic foundation, the political framework was unstable. The government was dominated by unpredictable leadership and erratic government policies. Some struggles ended when France established its protectorate over Cambodia in 1863. When Cambodia gained its independence from France in 1953, Prince Norodom Sihanouk ruled as an autocracy and continued to rule until 1970. In 1970 his prime minister, General Lon Nol, overthrew him and established a military government. The Khmer Rouge (Red or Communist Cambodians), a small movement of revolutionaries, began as a reaction to the military rule of Lon Nol and waged a war with the army until 1975 (Mattson, 1993).

Pearls of Cross Cultural Care: Naming in Cambodian Culture
Submitted by Paularita Seng
Harborview Medical Center
Seattle, WA One feature of Cambodian names that often confuse westerners is the origin of family names and the order they are used. 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. Identifying households or family groups can be equally confusing. The Cambodian children usually carry the last name of the father with some exceptions. Siblings may have different last names due to the favoritism of the parents. For example, the father of a Cambodian family name Sok, Narvaratt, has two daughters. The first daughter's name is Sok, Sophany; and the second daughter's name is Narvaratt, Keokalyan. The second daughter carries the father's first name as her last name because she is her father's favorite. Giving his first name to his favorite daughter, the father believe and feel he is closer to her.

Arranged Marriage
Arranged marriage has been the tradition in Cambodia for centuries and remains the norm practiced for Cambodians both at home and overseas. Marriage is a very important institution for Cambodians. The courtship practices and the marriage ceremony are very different from those practiced in the Western culture. Traditionally, marriage was always arranged without the knowledge or consent of the individuals to be married. Forced marriage was common. Many families arranged marriages while the betrothed individuals were still very young; friends made promises to each other that their children would marry. If a man were interested in marrying a girl he saw but to whom he had not spoken, his parents would arrange an engagement ceremony with the girl's parents. The girl would have nothing to say about it. Marriage is still arranged but individuals often are consulted about the choice of their spouse, and rejecting the parents' arrangement is tolerated. Even a young woman has an opportunity to reject her parents' wishes, although not many daughters are yet willing to exercise this option. Arranged marriage has survived because of religion and tradition. Most Cambodians are Buddhist. In Buddhism, it is an obligation of parents to find spouses for their children and to marry them into good families. Traditional Cambodian culture also pressures parents to choose and arrange marriages for the child so that their family's pride and honor are retained.

His sophisticated argument, based on subtle analysis of the Khmer language and extensive anthropological study, shows how Cambodian culture attached great importance to power, patronage, status, and honor. . . . The extraordinary power in Hinton's analysis stems from his readiness to confront hard questions and his skill in elucidating the elements in Cambodian culture that made genocide possible."Lucian W.

Beyond Killing Fields, Dance Endures
"If you know the culture, you know the heart of a country." So believes Proeung Chhieng, dean of the School of Dance at Cambodia's University of Fine Arts, and perhaps nowhere is that claim more evident than in Cambodia, where music and dance is the countries lifeblood.
The powerful and poignant new documentary "Dancing Through Death: The Monkey, Magic and Madness of Cambodia," explores how Cambodians in the United States and in their native land are attempting to rebuild their culture after the Pol Pot regime and the Khmer Rouge turned Cambodia into "killing fields" that wiped out nearly a quarter of the country's population, including 80-90 percent of its dancers and musicians.
When the communist guerrillas of the Khmer Rouge took over the Southeast Asian Country from 1975-1979, they abolished religion, education, and culture in an attempt to wipe out any vestiges of the pervious monarchy. In effect, they turned the country in one vast slave labor camp, torturing overworking, starving, and executing nearly two million people.
