Quotes: 1975 to 1979 Khmer Rouge regime
"Keeping you is no profit; losing you is no loss." Khmer Rouge saying "For Cambodia's nightmare did not begin with Year Zero but on the eve of the U.S. land invasion of neutral Cambodia in 1970. The invasion provided a small group of extreme ethnic nationalists with Maoist pretensions, the Khmer Rouge, with a catalyst for a revolution that had no popular base among the Cambodian people." John Pilger, journalist 1997 The Nation (digital edition) "In my understanding, it seems that the Khmer Rouge wanted to kill all Cambodians and replace us with a new people, a new nationality, but I'm not sure what nationality. If they wanted to help Cambodian people, why didn't they give us enough food and enough rice to eat? We produced a lot of rice and I saw piles of rice after harvest. I think that all the rice was exported to China, or to other countries, but they did not allow us to eat enough." Our Sok Hon 2002 |
