If you have not seen the movie The Killing Fields I highly recommend you do so.  Although there are several gut-wrenching scenes it is a must watch movie.  The movie is mostly about a Cambodian journalist, Dith Pran’s escape from that country during the rule of the Khmer Rouge is heart-wrenching.  It’s widely considered the unknown holocaust but something people should be aware happened less than 30 years ago.

  I’ve had this web page open since before I left for Thailand and have just not posted about it because it was something I wanted to save until after I visited Angkor Wat  Its a video tribute to Dith Pran, whom you can read about here.

I imagine that when Pran made his treacherous journey, he never expected his homeland would become such a tourist destination but watch the video and you see why.
