Some of this was shot by a visiting Yugoslavian TV team in 1977/8. Pol Pot did a summer program in Yug. when a student in Paris so was inclined towards Yugoslavia. D.A., NYC
where to fins more footage? I found only audio recordings from the Yugoslav radio team in 1978. They described abandon cities and scared people to death .
No one in the stadium is saying a word to each other. They won’t even look at each other. To afraid to probably even look around without looking suspicious.
I think you’re being a bit dramatic. While yes, it was a state of terror and fear among those in the government, I don’t think that they were trying to, or even showing it.
@@Nik-nc4xb No? One of the most frightening things about Democratic Kampuchea is probably that they killed women and children and the elderly for no good reason. They also killed Muslims, Vietnamese, and Chinese just for being of those ethnicities…
@@flawlessbinary7449 The original Yugoslav footage that I’ve found had a French dub with a woman’s face in the top at some points. I don’t know if that was the Yugoslav footage, but that’s something.
@@worldsgreatestdude1784 I feel like a lot of you commenters read too much into things. It’s quite poetic, the things you say actually. And though I find it stupid, it’s thoughtprovoking and interesting at the same time.
1. No, it’s a song about weed and some animals or some shit 2. I don’t think he was treated that well, considering he was a Royalist, but I don’t know.
@@Nik-nc4xb Not really because they were royalists more because they only understood duty to king and the King was on the KRA’s side against Lon Nol’s junta
😭😭😭 It hurts for three million Cambodian souls when Pol Pot dies naturally without knowing the taste of palm branches, saws, hoe, nail polish, torture, as it did to the people.
the last song isn't a socialist song, I find this Spanish investigation rios Añade un comentario público… esta letra está mal, pues la canción está una versión de una canción súper tradicional de cambodia. merl sat ty tuy pert perng. la letra original es de animales. y esta fue hecha en un periodo de 1950 al 2000, sin pasar por los 70's, aunque es más probable que sea anterior a 1970, pues el disco de donde salió fue una recopilación de música sobreviviente al 17 de abril, por lo que se desconoce su autor, y muchas de las canciones del disco no tienen título. además la versión pop, osea esta, tiene la letra modificada, tratando de animales, si pero consumiendo cosas no muy legales, amen de mucho alcohol. lo peor es que todo es muy difícil de comprender, por ejemplo se dice que el cantante es ye hua dam, pero no hay información, o Darkie aunque no se si siquiera existe, o talvez es preap sovath (que de los tres el más probable, nació en 1975 y sigue vivo) m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tcPUaoEwZkI.html m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B6o8-w0wxgA.html m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iC4AmK318XE.html m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MLP-sR-8T7k.html m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TWnjvbbGhrs.html disco de donde salió m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JsGJ9yLfoWk.html traducción al inglés m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zcl408XcNio.html canciones de preap sovath. www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Preap+Sovath+pop&&view=detail&mid=B2CA3319DF0A10EB4F8CB2CA3319DF0A10EB4F8C&&FORM=VDRVSR www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Preap+Sovath+pop&&view=detail&mid=09C69AF946E56B6484D809C69AF946E56B6484D8&&FORM=VDRVSR si alguien sabe más diganme esta letra está mal, pues la canción está una versión de una canción súper tradicional de cambodia. merl sat ty tuy pert perng. la letra original es de animales. y esta fue hecha en un periodo de 1950 al 2000, sin pasar por los 70's, aunque es más probable que sea anterior a 1970, pues el disco de donde salió fue una recopilación de música sobreviviente al 17 de abril, por lo que se desconoce su autor, y muchas de las canciones del disco no tienen título. además la versión pop, osea esta, tiene la letra modificada, tratando de animales, si pero consumiendo cosas no muy legales, amen de mucho alcohol. lo peor es que todo es muy difícil de comprender, por ejemplo se dice que el cantante es ye hua dam, pero no hay información, o Darkie aunque no se si siquiera existe, o talvez es preap sovath (que de los tres el más probable, nació en 1975 y sigue vivo) m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tcPUaoEwZkI.html m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B6o8-w0wxgA.html m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iC4AmK318XE.html m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MLP-sR-8T7k.html m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TWnjvbbGhrs.html disco de donde salió m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JsGJ9yLfoWk.html traducción al inglés m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zcl408XcNio.html canciones de preap sovath. www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Preap+Sovath+pop&&view=detail&mid=B2CA3319DF0A10EB4F8CB2CA3319DF0A10EB4F8C&&FORM=VDRVSR www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Preap+Sovath+pop&&view=detail&mid=09C69AF946E56B6484D809C69AF946E56B6484D8&&FORM=VDRVSR si alguien sabe más diganme
Why was every Khmer Rouge song have some sentence or speech before each song. Kinda wish we had translation into English as I have absolutely zero understanding of the Khmer language
If I remember correctly, those speeches are just like the titles of the songs or “revolutionary” phrases. Like I remember a song by the Khmer Rouge that starts with a woman chanting “Cheyyo” (Long Live or Glory to) and then something I couldn’t understand. If you listen closely, most of the times it sounds like it correlates with the title of the song in English. If the song is about Siem Reap or Mondul Kiri, the speech will contain the name “Siem Reap” or “Mondul Kiri” in it.
Usually it's either Pen Ran or Ros Sereysothea, they were well known singers/celebrities in Cambodia pre April 75. They were murdered possibly around mid to August 77, exact date is unknown.
@@nigelbaddock Autocrat Leaders lead Autocrat States and they only care for Power and not the values of anything! So also not for the true and righteous Values of Communism! Communism is not an Ideology when used right, but Autocrat Leaders do nothing right, so these regimes don‘t use true Communism!!! They are just foolish, but Communism is not! True Communism just not really work bc of people being far to egoistic!!! If not, it would definitely work out!!!
@@trafalgardchris Democarcy is the truest form of government that many people in the West take for granted but those under oppression yearn for. Name one communist country where you can run a political party against the communist party, namd one communist country where you can criticize the government.
The US was too focused on Vietnam & didn’t care about cambodia. Cambodia was worse than Vietnam, I’m not sure what Vietnam was like after the war, but here in the US, we didn’t learn ANYTHING about Asian history, except Vietnam war. It was mostly us & Europe. I find Asia to be a fascinating history
Even though it technically existed a couple of years, a society with no money, no banks, where everything is considered as the common heritage / property of everyone, where no financial usury or interest-levied extortion existed nor taxes or inflation, no old-industrial scaled schooling that was mandatory and equipped for indoctrinating/preparing people to be a working servant. This gavea little yet clear view on how societies could also run truly by, for and in the name of the people. Where the so called Wise Owl seem to try it out before being chased away in the jungle by the invading Vietnamese.
This was a caste system governed like those of old Kampuchea. It was not Socialism nor was it Communism. It abolished symbols of Capitalism and the like, but it also just abolished western culture and technology. Kampuchea had factories yes, but cities and western medicine were banned. French and English were banned. Muslims and Vietnamese were killed. It was a hierarchy like those of Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms like Tibet, Angkor, and Champa. The city people were the “untouchables”, the “Ragyabpa”, the slaves.
@@violetagardenia Back when I uploaded it I used to support Democratic Kampuchea because I thought it was anti-Revisionist and a true Maoist Communist utopia. I was completely blinded by propaganda just as much as the average Westerner or Easterner.
Hey friend, this is from the end of 1975. This congress was the one that announced the creation of the Revolutionary Army of Kampuchea, the national army of Democratic Kampuchea, under the leadership of Son Sen. Before the creation of the RAK, DK's army was divided into multiple divisions with different commanders (So Phim, for example, was the leader of the eastern zone army, Ta Mok was the commander of another zone army, and so goes on) and even different uniforms (note the soldiers with the green uniforms). This caused some mistakes, like the great disorganization at the Evacuation of Phnom Penh, where some of the armies knew of the Evacuation days before Phnom Penh fell while others were told about the evacuation in the same day Phnom Penh fell. This multiple divisions system even caused some friendly fire incidents in Phnom Penh. Pol, as well as other CPK leaders, saw the need for a united army and went along with it.
@@leonardotunin1521 Thank you so much for the informations! 🙏🏼🥹 Yes, I know the story of disorganization of the evacuation, the green uniform, So Phim ecc 🤓
Well they weren’t residing in cities, but yes. It’s a common misconception that Democratic Kampuchea was a so-called “Agrarian Socialist” state. This is a falsehood. If anything, it should be classified as a Maoist state following People’s Protracted War and Third World-ism.
@@DeVolksrepubliekThey were, for the most part. The industrial elements of Phnom Penh were run by a very slim minority of people relative to everyone else which was forced to the country side to work. I don't think it's a misconception, Agrarian Socialism can still have its industrial side if it's only a very extremely slim percentage of the population actively engaging in it. And in regards to calling it Maoist, I think that is not entirely inaccurate given that Pol Pot was inspired by Maoism, but the difference is Mao moreso emphasized on the urban proletariat and industrialization than Pol Pot was. Pol Pot didn't force people to have steel mills in their backyard. And as well, Pol Pot was way more extreme than Mao in terms of the level of collectivism.
@@taiwandxt6493 He wasn’t Maoist, he didn’t follow Marxist-Leninist Dictatorship of the Proletariat which is like essentially the most important aspect of Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought. As for Agrarian Socialism, it wasn’t Agrarian Socialist. Pol Pot only moved the people to the countryside because it was so destroyed by American bombing. Famine caused by the US and bad Kampuchean management coupled with the atrocities they committed to get what we today call the “Cambodian Genocide”.
Are you asking for the lyrics of the songs? If so, I haven’t find anywhere with lyrics for Khmer Rouge songs except for Sat Tee Touy (which is thought to not be a Khmer Rouge song anyway)
Κάθε σύστημα έχει και τα υπέρ και τα κατά ο σοσιαλισμός είναι το καλύτερο σύστημα κοινωνικής οργάνωσης ισοτιμία σ'όλα Παιδεία δώρεαν και υγεία εργασία για όλους που ο λαός είναι το Αφεντικο στον πλούτο που παράγει ο ίδιος δεν των κλέβουν οι καπιταλιστές κοπριτες.
Notice how nobody has medals or insignia like any other army in the modern world (that i can find) Idk why but that further subconsciously tells that something isn't right in this country
No and thats also what i expected, its just even in communist countries they usually have medals and red stars or hammer and sickle badges especially at a state event like shown, it makes sense for the khmer Rouge but its just odd to me and adds a bit more uneasiness when looking at Khmer Rouge stuff
