Cambodia is still one of the few countries in SE Asia whose state does not cater for, or formally recognise the needs of its elderly – the aged population. Reeling from the destructive legacy of the Khmer Rouge regime in the seventies where the nuclear family unit had been deliberately split apart to deny the family any influence it could exercise as a main rival institution to the state, this social and core human fabric has been coming under attack and grievously and violently violated further ever since under the current neo-KR regime as a consequence of the state's failure to redistribute 'generated' economic wealth equitably among its citizens, or rebuild a sound economic base capable of meeting demands of its domestic labour market, particularly, among the youths whose search for job opportunities has been forcing them to venture overseas leaving behind dependent family members such as this elderly woman to fence for themselves in the process… ~School of Vice, KI Media

Listen to Khmer literature and Dhamma talk by His Holiness Jotannano Chuon Nath, Supreme Patriarch of Cambodia Buddhism.
Should anyone wish to ridicule me and make me an object of jest and scorn why should I possibly care if I have dedicated myself to others?
Let them do as they wish with me so long as it does not harm them. May no one who encounters me ever have an insignificant contact.
Regardless whether those whom I meet respond towards me with anger or faith, may the mere fact of our meeting contribute to the fulfilment of their wishes.
May the slander, harm and all forms of abuse that anyone should direct towards me act as a cause of their enlightenment.
As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind, so the wise are not shaken by blame and praise. As a deep lake is clear and calm, so the wise become tranquil after they listened to the truth…
Good people walk on regardless of what happens to them. Good people do not babble on about their desires. Whether touched by happiness or by sorrow, the wise never appear elated or depressed. ~The Dhammapada
