Le royaume d'Angkor Dès le 2ème siècle AC., l'influence culturelle de la civilisation hindouiste s'étend dans les régions qui forment actuellement la Birmanie, le Cambodge, le sud du Vietnam. Les valeurs religieuses, sociales, artistiques de l'Inde diffusent auprès des chefs tribaux de ces régions. Le drainage des terres marécageuses du delta du Mékong est solidement organisé à partir du 6ème siècle. Une nation 'se crée progressivement. ainsi qu'un état centralisé. Leurs piliers sont la religion et la maîtrise de l'eau, facteur de maîtrise agricole. Ces maîtrises sont le résultat d'une organisation sociale hiérarchisée, centralisée et se perpétuant de génération en génération. Le royaume d'Angkor, personnalisé par son roi dieu omnIpotent. s'épanouit dès le 9ème siècle, au détriment de son voisin oriental, le royaume du Champa, progressivement conquis et absorbé. A son apogée au 14ème siècle, Angkor s'étend sur le Cambodge actuel, le sud du Vietnam, le sud du Laos, l'ensemble de la Thaïlande jusqu'à l'isthme de Kra au sud ouest et jusqu'à une partie de la Birmanie au nord-ouest. -

It argues, however, that while this pre-1945 background can explain antagonism, it cannot sufficiently explain the violence between Khmer and Vietnamese that occurred after 1945. For that, the First Indochina War (1945–54) and decolonization marked a turning point. This period saw the creation of a dynamic of vio- lence between Khmer and Vietnamese that hardened ethnic antagonisms, shaped the character of the war, and affected arguments over sovereignty. -

His Khmer children were not allowed to learn any political sciences…. However, his ordinary people seemed to enjoy their lives under his Sangkum Reastre Niyum Regime, even if his country was also completely under siege being already engulfed in wars with the two young-warmongering nations-Siam and Yuon again. And, his people seemed being kept in a dark pond like a frog that knew nothing what was happening during his reign of Sangkum Reastre Niyum? His ordinary Khmer people did not also really know much about any Vietnamese secret agents/Vietcong living in Cambodia during a little dictatorial Sangkum Niyum of his? Why did he become a little dictator who gave a drastic order to his secret police to secretly kill his own Khmer educated men? SLK v.2 [10] Sangkum Reastre Niyum of King Norodom Sihanouk 1955-1970 Absolute Monarchy ABSOLUTE monarchy is an idealized form of government, a monarchy where the ruler has the power to rule his or her country and citizens freely with no laws or legally-organized direct opposition telling him or her what to do, although some religious authority may be able to discourage the monarch from some acts and the sovereign is expected to act according to custom. -

U.S.-Cambodia Relations (PDF: 9.28
President Obama’s Letter to His Majesty King Norodom Sihamoni on the Occasion of the 60th Anniversary of Diplomatic Relations between the United States and Cambodia Your Majesty: On behalf of the American people, I wish to congratulate the Kingdom of Cambodia on the Occasion of the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between our two countries. This important milestone presents us with the opportunity to reflect on our shared past and to plot a course for the future based on the strong foundation we have built together. Both Cambodia and the United States have changed immensely since July 11, 1950, when our first Ambassador to your country presented his credentials to King Sihanouk. As with any bilateral relationship, there have been times when we have not agreed, but the overall growth in the depth and breadth of our engagement reflects a maturing partnership. Over the last several years, for example, we have seen many positive developments, including the establishment of the Peace Corps program in Cambodia, the creation of the Extraordinary Cambers of the Courts in Cambodia and completion of its first trial, and the inauguration of Cambodia’s peacekeeping force, a truly momentous achievement for a coutry that was the beneficiary of peacekeepers less than two decades before. The United States is now the top market for Cambodia’s garment exporters, forming a pillar for the country’s economic growth. Military-to-military and counterterrism cooperation between our two countries has grown as well, creating a safer environment for both Americans and Cambodians. In the coming years, we look forward to taking advantage of the positive momentum that has been created and to see the patnership between our two nations grow stronger and deeper in areas such as food security, climate change, health, education, human rights, and strengthening democratic institutions. -

Thailand's Response to the Cambodian Genocide
Thailand’s Response to the Cambodian Genocide Puangthong Rungswasdisab Independent Researcher Introduction In January 1999, Cambodian Prime Minister Hen Sen proposed that the Khmer Rouge’s foreign backers be brought to justice. His proposal was an act of retaliation against the international community who condemned his warm welcome of two defected Khmer Rouge leaders, Khieu Samphan and Nuon Chea. His remark prompted the Thai leaders to distance the country from its past involvement with the murderous regime. The then Prime Minister Chuan Leekpai asserted that Thailand was not involved and had even objected and disagreed with the genocide. He reiterated that a trial was a matter for Cambodia alone. But the Cambodian problem was rarely regarded by its neighbors as an internal affair. The rise of the communist regime in Cambodia, together with those in Laos and Vietnam in 1975, was perceived as a threat for Thailand. But ironically, soon after its fall, the Khmer Rouge became Thailand’s military ally in fighting against the Vietnamese and the new Cambodian regime. Later on, a new dimension was added to the relationship between Thailand and the Khmer Rouge. Though a policy of turning Indochina from a battlefield into a market place of the Chatichai Choonhavan government was initially aimed at breaking a decade-long impasse of the Cambodian conflict, the Thais nevertheless enjoyed having the Khmer Rouge as their business partner. This chapter examines the development of Thailand’s policy towards the genocidal regime between 1975 and the mid 1990s. And as the friendly relationship with the regime was widely supported by the Thais, this chapter also sheds light on the perspectives of various Thai political groups on the crimes committed by the Khmer Rouge. -

General Elections. - Cabinet Changes. - Communist Revolt, - Recognition of Cambodia's Frontiers by Foreign Governments. - Incidents on South Vietnamese and Thai Frontiers. A political crisis in Cambodia was caused by a rising in Battambang province in April, which the Chief of State,Prince Norodom Sihanouk, attributed to Communist subversion. The right-wing Government led by Lieut.-General Lon Nol, which had taken office in the previous October, resigned in consequence, and Prince Sihanoukformed a new Government containing left-wing representatives on May 2. Although the revolt collapsed in Junethe political situation remained tense; Prince Sihanouk dismissed two of the left-wing Ministers on Sept. 11, and accused the Chinese Government of encouraging subversive activities inside Cambodia. Details of these and other recent developments are given below. In general election held on Sept. 11, 1966, all the 82 seats in the National Assembly were won by the ruling Party, the Sangkum Reastr Niryum (Popular Socialist Community). The elections differed from those previously held in that the candidates had not been personally approved by Prince Sihanouk, and the successful candidates, although all claiming to support his nationalist and neutralist foreign policy, represented a wide range of opinions from conservatives to Chinese sympathizers. Lieut.-General Lea Nol (the Army C.-in-C., who had previously been Defence Minister) was elected Prime Minister by the Assembly on Oct. 18, 1966, in place of Prince Norodom Kantol, and formed a Government onOct. -
Writing the Postcolonial City: Phnom Penh and Modernity During Sangkum Reastr Niyum, 1955-1970
Writing the Postcolonial City: Phnom Penh and Modernity during Sangkum Reastr Niyum, 1955-1970 by Siti Galang Keo A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Peter B. Zinoman, Chair Professor Kerwin Klein Professor Penelope Edwards Summer 2019 Abstract Writing the Postcolonial City: Phnom Penh and Modernity during Sangkum Reastr Niyum, 1955-1970 by Siti Galang Keo Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Peter B. Zinoman, Chair This dissertation examines novels, essays, films and songs of the Sangkum Reastr Niyum period, 1955-1970, to explore the layers of meanings Cambodians held of Phnom Penh. After the Geneva Accords in 1954, Phnom Penh emerged as the capital city of a newly independent nation-state, the Kingdom of Cambodia. The city under French colonial rule was secondary to Hanoi and Saigon, but once Indochina dissolved, its population exponentially increased. Phnom Penh was at the center of Cambodia’s road networks, its banking system, and was home to the best universities and schools. The many jobs and opportunities attracted rural migrants to the city. The population boom was one of the many ways Phnom Penh transformed. Norodom Sihanouk, then the head of state, made Phnom Penh the epicenter of government modernization projects. Under his watch, the capital transformed from being a marshy, provincial hub into an exciting scene of cosmopolitan innovation. Urban Cambodians combined ideas from Le Corbusier with traditional Khmer architectural details to design their “modern” buildings.
