Life of a Cambodian Deportee 

You clearly don't know much about Cambodia lol.

My uncle told me a story about one of his friends he tried to help and they did the exact same thing to him...truth is alot of deportees are degenerates. My uncle was smart and made a better life for himself.

@@saviyoua lot are def from that gang life

I mean….. would you really trust convicted criminals? No matter how small the crime. A lot of Khmer that get deported just continue their old ways. Savi’s uncle at least had some good family help with the land and farming. It’s certainly not easy to just get sent to cambo without really any way back to America.

Savi ask your uncle if he ever lived in Bowling green Ky?

@@tainanking I blamed myself for trusting these guys because I too have served time in prison when I was young. But I was accused of sexual battery by a white woman, who I thought was my best friend. I’ve known her for 14 years. She asked me to loan her $560.00 for her phone bill, and that she would pay me in two months after she gets paid. Two months turns into 3 years. I asked her for the money again she told me to come back tomorrow to get the money. I agreed and drove home, when I got home the police officials everywhere surrounded my residence. I walked in and was placed under arrest. She accused me of sexually abusing her. I was sentenced to three years in prison, but was released after one and half year. Since I was naturalized I wasn’t deported. I waited seven years to expunge my records and enlisted in the army. After serving 12 years I was discharged with honorable service. I received my degree in Electronic Engineering and started several businesses. I tried to help these guys because I grew up in the same neighborhood. But I learned that some people can’t be trusted and help.

You're the same as me, you should try to visit before it changes too much. I already see how much different Vietnam and Thailand are than Cambodia!

Be careful when visiting Laos. There was Cambodian-canadian who visited Laos and was chopped into pieces at the airport a few years ago.

You should come back man, I was just up in Savannakhet last year, very cool place and lovely people. peace from Thailand.

@@chengxiong3821what was the motive behind it?

@antman8498, a lot of Khmer folks up north have Laotian ancestry. Heck even the light skin folks in the city, the ones that always try claim Chinese ancestry, some are Laotian-Khmer.

10 years sentenced for what? are you serious right now saying cambodians who got deported are bad people?

@@leepialong who said who ever got deported is bad people? I didn’t say that.

Reread my comment before you assume anything. All up in my mix. People like u causes problems in society. That’s the problem with people now a days.

@@MustBeNice-ox3gr your uncle got sentenced for 10 years. why did he do?

@@leepialong obviously something he shouldn’t have done just like everyone else that got deported but the whole thing was I never said everyone that get deported is bad people. I have a lot of friends that got deport back to Cambodia. Some is as little as being at the wrong place wrong time. You’re the one that thinks they’re bad people.

Citizens can't be deported; residents will only be deported when they committed crimes. Yes, criminals with lengthy records.

Realistically speaking, people like them will never be treated as real Americans

He was never an American! Americans don't get deported! He is back living in his homeland, bettering his country 's economies! He is an inspiration to his family and friends, too! His nephew is very proud of him!

don't worry when it's finish I will make a video about it

not always the case with deportees...he just did the right thing and made a better life for himself

Not when he was in USA .

You are in for a surprise, you American.

From the look of his house he is living a good life that is beyond okay lol

I plan to visit Laos next time!

Awesome! Thank you!

Yea sorry not ideal environment but we were chillin and drinking

I’m sure it’s not easy as a deportee, but he found life! 🙏🏽

I'm researching price now...land is almost as expensive as in the US but you can still build a home for cheap. I just don't know if the same quality as in the US.

@@saviyou I was told you have to be Khmer citizen to buy property. I was born in a refugee camp so I don't know if I qualified as a Cambodian citizen. I plan on visiting Cambodia next month with my family. Will be my first time. We plan on making a stop to visit Battambang for a few days. I'm very excited to visit my parents mother land.

@@sunbutma4285 yes you must be Khmer citizen. If your parents were born here you can become a citizen by birth-rite. You can watch my other video to learn more about that.

We visited him! He will be in my next video 😉

yes next time I want to meet some of the ones that weren't so lucky

@@saviyou- I wonder if you are going to Interview former members of the TRG and Abz.

Very cool!

I agree with you. But, they can't go back with nothing. They need resources. Whether that's through money they saved. Or relatives helping them.

yes very nice i plan to build a house here :)

Phnom Sampov and the areas surrounding Battambang has a lot of interesting history during Khmer Rouge times.

Thanks for watching!
