7 PERCENT of the South African population is white.

Saloth Sar lived in the far north of Cambodia for many years after the genocide.
He lived to be 72, but the population of Cambodia is comprised of people 35 years old and under.
If you see an old person in Cambodia, they are probably Vietnamese.
An entire generation lost, along with the art.

In the case of Cambodia, the musical recordings were outlawed and almost completely destroyed by the Khmer Rouge. Most of the existing recordings were taken to France by collectors, or there would be virtually no record.
Try: "Songs From The City Of Four Faces", a complilation of 60s Khmer pop.

Many Cambodian musicians of the 50s, 60s, and early 1970s were imprisoned and executed by the former Khmer Rouge government.
In one example, a group of famous Cambodian musicians was contracted to play a performance, but were executed onstage instead.
Recordings only exist in foreign collections.

This is the same 3rd party deportation scheme wherein the Tories tried to send refugees to Rwanda, which was ultimately quashed.
This attempt is even more racist and arbitrary as these 3 countries already have existing agreements with the US to accept their deported citizens. 3 more forms to file😂

The US deportees held in transit are all from Laos, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
Libyan refugee camps are alrrady notoriously dangerous.
Trump just cut all USAID and US state department funding and oversight into the operation of these camps, and funding for major NGOs.

They yelled at Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit, but it's totally OK for Tim Pool to be in the White House dressed like the first crew member to get fired on The Deadliest Catch.
