Life of the Muslim fishermen | Phnom Penh Cambodia 

It was a great eye opening video, they are Khmer as well and I hope they get the help or aid they need. Yeah generations of Khmer Chams lived in boats. Thanks Pat for uploading and letting people be aware what problems people in Cambodia deal with.

I hope Sokha and government can relocate them without any conflict. Their struggles are enough; don’t need another headache. Very informative video and nice of you to have them voice their opinion/need.

This is sad. They are Cambodians too. I hope the government will have compassion and understanding, and find way to help them. They have been living on the boat all their lives. They need help.

Thank you for sharing the side no tourist would ever see....

It’s quite interesting to see a smart man like you experiencing people's lives in Cambodia, especially the boat people (Cham.) They live a normal life as a fishery business. Be safe for yourself while adventuring in a foreign land.

Generation to generation, Khmer Islam who lived along Mekong River earned living by catching fish and sell to people. So sad to see how their lives had to go through on daily basis. I hope the government or the company should subsidise their incomes, their housing for these people. No one want to live in such a tiny boat and have no place to land.

thanks you foryou video i like so mach💖😻😻

គួរតែមានដំណោះស្រាយដែលសមស្របអាចទទួលយកបាន

Thank you for making this video! Lord help these people find a solution.

Such nice people & community they have, hard working and doing what they can to do go for their families. Its a shame they are getting the shitty end of the stick just because they are seen as an eyesore. Sad. Thanks for sharing with us Pat, maybe your efforts will help with these peoples struggle.

Thank to share this video. You such a great person!!!!

cham people are genetically close to khmers despite speaking a austronesian language quote "Comparing the Chams with other Southeast Asian populations reveals that the Chams had a closer affinity with the Mon-Khmer populations in MSEA than with the Austronesian populations from Island Southeast Asia (ISEA). Further analyses failed to detect the potential homelands of the Chams in ISEA. Therefore, our results suggested that the origin of the Cham was likely a process of assimilation of massive local Mon-Khmer populations accompanied with language shift, thus indicating that the Austronesian diffusion in MSEA was mainly mediated by cultural diffusion" reference Tracing the Austronesian footprint in Mainland Southeast Asia: a perspective from mitochondrial DNA Min-Sheng Peng 1, Huy Ho Quang, Khoa Pham Dang, An Vu Trieu, Hua-Wei Wang, Yong-Gang Yao, Qing-Peng Kong, Ya-Ping Zhang

ជួយសំរួលពួកគាត់ផងទៅ ពួកគាត់រស់នៅលើទឹកដីខ្មែរ ពួកគាត់ក៏ដូចជនជាតិខ្មែរយើងដែរ

Thank you for making this video, I am Khmy myself and never knew Cambodian Muslims existed.

Merci pour ta vidéo, quand j'irais avec ma famille j'irais les voir. Inch Allah ❤️ 🇲🇫 🤲

I'm so sorry for those people may God bless them 🙏🙏🙏

It hurts when you want to help but don't know how

May Allah help these brothers and sisters for a better living ameen....

You carry yourself really well ❤

Love this video so much.

Love your vlog ❤

What happened to them during the ASEAN meetings that were held at Sokha?

I support khmer islam.Thank for your video

Hello, was wondering if I was to donate, is there anyway you can go back and give it to them?

I hope the government will help these families have an excellent and clean home. It is not suitable to live in a boat. I understand these people were raised near boats and water to sustain themselves. But if they were to relocate somewhere else, they could be better situated within the city and selling goods.

Join what membership how do I do that

Is there any way I can donate to them, either a bag of rice or some gas fuel

it's sad 😔, government should giving pieces of land to construct what they need.

Hi in ur next video can u do it in the Muslim village where I live. On Land pls I will appreciate it.

ចូលចិត្តវីដេអូបងគ្រប់វីដេអូ🥰

I feel for both sides. The people there do not own the land and don't pay the taxes. What if you owned a home on the water and they decided to park their boats there. Can't do it. Laws are laws. I hope they find a solution but this one isn't it. 🤗

0:55 haha saw that coming lol

Very sad 😔 they literally have the right to live in the water they don’t need the land like they mention God be with them all 🙏

they are trying to rid of floating villages as sanitary concerns of number 1 and 2s are done in the lake used for drinking also

Hope they r relocated to better place.

Wish I can help them some way or form maybe buys some land or so 😔

I’m all about capitalism BuT don’t forget about the regular hard working folks trying to make ends meet. ❤️🇰🇭

😓😓😓

Careful with what you report on in Cambodia brother

Cambodian Muslim in Cambodia live in the water

Pol pot made Cambodia like a living hell,, evil has no boundaries

Wow

They are Cambodian, not Khmer. There is a difference between ethnic and nationality. Chams are not blood kin to Khmers, they are blood kin to Malays. Besides that they are Cambodian, and deserves the same rights as all fellow Cambodians.

💗🇧🇩

So sad such nice people

ខ្មែរអត់ដីនៅតែយួនសង់ផ្ទះឲ្យនៅ Kingdom of wonder

Hopefully, the government will see their struggles of daily necessities:)

The REAL story is how exactly are these people making babies while living on a rickety old boat on the river docked with 30 other boats? I can barely get 30 mins of privacy in my own house yet the first boat woman you spoke to has 6 kids!? My mind is boggled.

❤❤❤❤❤

champa kingdom was their motherland but vietnam stole it in 1832 forced muslim out to cambodia

You’d think Allah would help them as them gone to all the trouble of following the rules and wearing the head gear.

So sad they make i difficult for them to continue their lifestyle. Then offer no solutions

U know the Muslim man he is my uncle 😅

🇰🇭😭😭🙏

Expensive fish.

So much trashes there.

😓😓😓😓
