They do not want to live in country like Cambodia because they are fed up by lawlessness, corruption, and suffering. God blesses them, that they finally obtained Vietnamese citizenship. They think Vietnamese citizenship has more value, dignity, and protection than Khmer citizenship. Maybe they are correct in having their choice.

Ah Ahh, there's a little mention in the article that Cambodia renounced them. Is that true?? D'ohh!! No No I can't believe Cambodia renounced them. I think they made it up in order to try to justify their un-willingness to go back to Cambodia. I was a Cambodian refugee in Vietnam too. As early as the early 1980s after the barbaric atrocious mass-murderous Khmer Rouge regime was destroyed, lots of Cambodian refugees in Vietnam whom I know & who had no hope of going to a 3rd country moved back to Cambodia. Cambodia didn't renounce them. Thank goodness virtually all of us Cambodian refugees in Vietnam brought with us Sin Si Samouth songs. Thank goodness all of Samouth songs we brought with us now have found their way back to Cambodia, and even to YouTube!! I remember, when my family managed to borrow any Samouth cassette that we didn't have from a fellow Cambodian refugee, we all sat, quietly, around the cassette player, listening to Samouth, and dreaming, and "khl-auch phsar khnong chett", d'ohh!! Now, for me it's a nostalgia too. Almost like Cambodia.
