My grandma said, “granddaughter, Cambodia is a country with great ancient civilization. Everybody knows about us. Tell our people not to worry. When strangers take away our land and copy our food that means they like it— they want to be Cambodian even if they change our names. They want what we eat and what we have. The more they take, the more they look like and speak like us. And that’s a beautiful thing! Don’t worry because those strangers help keeping Cambodian culture alive.”
