Today I get so moved by Mr. Pondinarith KIM, Khmer Engineer, who designed a very interesting website publishing the Khmer Empire Maps from 3600BC until today. And the most important thing besides the very informative maps is his message in his website as he writes:
The Khmer Empire Nation was born from at lease 5600 years ago, (within 3600 years before Christian Era). After our verification from all of the official documents, The Khmer Nation has at lease 2000 years experiences of war successfull story, at lease 100 years of diplomatic success story, and at lease 2000 years of prosperity, shining culture, shining civilization, and shining history from year 500 B.C. before Christian Era to year 1500 A.D. of our era now. Basing on these historical successfull stories, foreign contries that would like to invade Cambodia today is seemingly not an easy action, they will be destroyed by Khmer People and khmer soldiers have a lot experience of war in the field.
To see our former Empire maps which hade gloriously prospered for thausands in the past please kindly visit website of Mr. Pondinarith KIM at: Khmer Empire History

I am proud of my Khmer root and my Khmer heritage.
Thanks for the map. Don’t let Thai aggressors stealing our Khmer heritage and claimed belonging to Thais like our Khmer Preah Vihear that Thais wanted to steal none-stop without shame.

what kind of f**ken maps are those nhoona?. first of there are no “thai” tribes thousands of years ago . the word ailao existed lond before any “thai” tribe was made up by you. what the hell is up with khmer tribe? sh!et. the map is seperating khmer from funan & chenla (jenla). they got funan down in cambodia then above that there’s khmer tribe?, what the fudge. chenla in its history were seperated by two khmer chenla kingdoms, north & south chenla. where the hell is that on your map?. khmer are indigenous to south east asia, just like mon folks. that means we were the 1st people to settled in the regions that later became parts of khmer or mon kingdoms or empire. historians & scholars don’t doubt that the funan & chenla kingdoms were khmer & khmer are indigenous to those regions.
then i see this stupid map that trying to seperate khmer people from our ancient kingdoms/civilisation. f**k that, when the mon & khmer people settled in south east asia, we settled in different regions. the mon occupied burma & parts of thailand. while the khmer occupied other parts of thailand, laos, cambodia & south vietnam. why are there so many question marks on those map anyways? so it’s 1 of those speculation maps is it. it’s not even an accurate historical map. if it was then there would’nt be so many question marks & false information, & you want to show this map around like you proud of it?. take the map & use it as toilet paper thats all it worth when it’s not 100% historicly accurate . should of known those maps were dodgy when i 1st saw “thai tribes” haha just another thaisified version of south east asian history is it.
if you want to go back that far. then where is the 5000 year old bronze age ban chiang civilisation in what is know present day essan/khmer border region in thailand?. they were said to be the 1st people to work bronze in the world. bronze metal works artifacts like spear heads, pots & sculptures older than 5000 years old have been found in what is todays essan/khmer border region. where the hell is that on your map?. it deserves a mention on the map since it marked a milestone in human civilisation by the coming of the bronze age?. & it’s not even there. huhhh…. get a better map to show of fool.
you can try to cover up the truth with lies & bull sh!et, but the truth is still there. remove the lies & bull sh!et & what you get is still the truth.

if podinarath kim is khmer, then he’s a khmer fool. hahahahahehehehehe
coming up in here with a map like that a map that shows a “thai tribe” thousands of year ago & don’t even recognise the funan & chenla kingdoms as khmer. then you forget about the 5500 year old bronze age ban chiang civilisation in the essan/khmer border region of thailand.
ban chiang- the word chiang is like the khmer word jiang. which means specialist in a certain area.
like jiang daekh (metal workers) jiang larn (mechanic) jiang pteah (builder, carpenter). ban is like bunge in khmer, like bunge gapleing (fire a gun) something to do with a firing action. if you put ban chiang together it means an expert in a firing action like the firing, heating process that is needed to extract bronze from a rock. the civilisation was called ban chiang because of their expertise in bronze metal work. they were said to be the 1st people in the world to work with bronze metal. & it’s not even on your beloved map .
take your rediculous map fold it up or scrunch it up, how ever you prefer it. then use it as toilet paper. thats all it’s worth, oh & if it’s laminated then take the laminate of before you use it as toilet paper.
masterchief sounds like masterfuck with his/her fucking silly word with very shameful to every thai/Siem people.
Siem has been washed their brain by thier changed history, everyone known except themselve that still living with a shame but acting very proud of their robber baron growing to the world.
Let proofing and talk to your people, thai/siem, at Boriram, Sorin, Trat,… let say from down to your up country, do they speak khmer? do they have their ancient as khmer people? do they have khmer blood? well, ambitious cannot protect people from robbery, event brother and sister can be killed to reach their ambitious.
Everyday you bow your head and knee down to our Khmer Letter to pray for happiness and success, that is what we are very prouding of, but backward you look down on your ancient and guardian spirit, how’s come can u do that? We don’t really understand of what u are doing to show the world? Please don’t try to ashamed your people to the world, STOP IT!
Well Siem, blaiming your ancient will bring every of yours go to hell soon or later. Don’t trying to cheat yourself, let showing the true, buddha will pity u!!!!

MIRACLE,
I totally agree with you, i dont know where this guy got his information from, or what is his agenda that he think thai was in existence since that time. i never seen any doccumment anywhere that said the thai existence.
thai only exist since the 13 century only.

Great Man!
We are Khmer must wake up! Not just saying or writing ” I am Khmer Angkor” , but not acting developing ourself in many areas of our lives. I urge all of us in this generation to be alert all the time. Because we are in between two big giant and hungry countries! Any way to know our past history background is great! But now do ask ourself, Who Am I ? What am I doing? where am I going?when am I acting? how am I doing? And move on people! “Know yourself and know your enemies” you are always wine!

Actually Thai was existed long time ago, but not in the current location like today. They are originated from the Mao-Tai in Mongolia. Being a bad guy, Mongol tried to get rid of them. So Mongol just fight them downward through China and finally Tai got into Khmer territory. Being alliance with Khmer, Tai got support and defeated those Mongols(unclear 8th A.D). Later on Tai tried to get rid of Khmer to expand the land for their next generation.

Thais were thieves and smoking opium living in Mongol until the Mongol chased them into China land then they were chased by the Chinese and they ran into Khmer land.
Khmer people made a mistake for helping those Thai thieves, we should chase them back to Mongol.
Since the day we helped them, we lost almost everything, but at least our Khmer numerals are written on Thai national to prove that Khmer people educated Thais to become civilized.
