| | Khmer Rouge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In terms of the number of people killed as a proportion of the population of the country it ruled and time in power, it was probably the most lethal regime of the 20th century. | | | The Khmer Rouge regime arrested, tortured and eventually executed anyone suspected of connections with the former government or with foreign governments, professionals, intellectuals as well as ordinary Khmer people who breached their rules. | | | The CIA estimated that between 50,000 and 100,000 people were executed by the Khmer Rouge, but executions represented only a minority of the death toll, which mostly came from starvation. |

| | Also, Khmer people admires a government official who just signs a document and earns millions of riels with one stroke of a pen, rather than another one who works from morning till evening and hardly earns what is needed to survive. | | | This is because Khmer people originally belonged to an ethnic family called"Khmer-Mon". | | | This truth-word or the loyalty to what have been said is one of Khmer principal virtues which has been found via researches on Khmer literature, to have existed since long time. |

| | AsiaFinest Discussion Forum -> The Argument Againt the Khmer People |
| | Vietnamese academics said that there wasn’t enough linguistic evidence to point out that the people of the Funan empire (present-day Kampuchea Krom) were Khmer because the Khmer ethnicity arose after the existence of the Funan empire. | | | Their theory stated that Cambodia used to be inhabited by a group of people called Khom. | | | As far as a certain American scholar is concerned who claimed that the language of the people of Funan remains a mystery, why then it is so easy for a certain Malay Filipino to claim that the “Funanese” were actually the Malay people because of this and that evidence? |

| | The Cambodian genocide of 1975-1979, in which approximately 1.7 million people lost their lives (21% of the country's population), was one of the worst human tragedies of the last century. | | | As in Nazi Germany, and more recently in East Timor, Guatemala, Yugoslavia, and Rwanda, the Khmer Rouge regime headed by Pol Pot combined extremist ideology with ethnic animosity and a diabolical disregard for human life to produce repression, misery, and murder on a massive scale. | | | Since 1994, the award-winning Cambodian Genocide Program, a project of the Genocide Studies Program at the Yale Center for International and Area Studies, has been studying these events to learn as much as possible about the tragedy, and to help determine who was responsible for the crimes of the Pol Pot regime. |
