FOREIGN CULTURES HAVE FLOWN INTO CAMBODIA

FOREIGN CULTURES HAVE FLOWN INTO CAMBODIA

Cambodia has its own culture to identify the nation, but there are some foreign cultures have flown into Cambodia. We know that foreign cultures always flow from the neighbor countries such as tradition of custom, languages (literature, art) and religion (belief). What are the influences of foreign culture on Cambodia culture? One of all is tradition. Some people go abroad and some foreigners come Cambodia. People live and work together, so they must communicate each other. Some foreigners use their culture. For instance, they shake hand with friends and co-workers so his friends of co-works must respect to shake hand with him, too. Furthermore, clothes that they use in Cambodia are sexy clothes and stylish. Thus people want to wear the same they do. People want to change something new in order to develop their beauty. They copy foreign custom in order to invent their own culture.

On the other hand, television is a resource of influence. It has shown films that performed about their culture, speech and materials which get Cambodians want to do.

Two of all is language. When people live in the society, they need to educate their ability to build their chances to find a job so that they fit to be human beings, so they have learn a lot when they study their courses, they have to learn Khmer language and other languages including Sanskrit and Bali. The Sanskrit language flew into Cambodia from India so, we see that all the monasteries have Sanskrit documents, bibles and textbooks. Plus, some monks or nuns have known it. Whereas Thai language, they are similar, for example, Thai word (tour yang) and Khmer means example. Vietnamese word (Bagan Chav), means fitter in Khmer. Anyway, there are some arts, first and stories.

There of all is religion (belief). Our countries have pied respect and followed the Buddhism. Everyone loves and worships the Buddha. They belief that Buddha can give happiness and comfort them peacefully from the present until the future. Buddhism flew into Cambodia from India because Buddha was born over there. But before Cambodia believed Buddhism. They had been worshiping following Brahmanism. Religion can both get citizens ole and comfort because sometime it can have people to kill each other because of the belief.

In solving the problems, we should clasp our hands to respect someone before you shake hand with them because we are Cambodia people. We are good people. Should appreciated our stories, especially firms. All the programs on the television the young generation copy those. We must turn back to protect our culture together. As for clothes. We should use Khmer clothes. We have to admire the Khmer products. We should not wear short clothes that they can get lose our honors and families in the society. However, they can get us die because of our uniforms. Thus the government should limit and control is very important for general people in our country. Old men, woman and priests should educate our young kids to know clearly about the culture, custom and tradition at school houses and monasteries.

In closing, I would like to say again and again that influence of foreign culture are both useful and useless because some cultures are peace. They bring human right, democracy and business. Opposite Khmer can confuse the culture or always, cut the wedding cakes as the same Europeans do. Like this, was should not be popular in our country. We should follow our ancestor’s customs that they gave us. Thus on culture. If culture is alike means nations is alike, too. We always opposite to the foreign culture and protect our culture from flowing foreign culture.
