Khmer (also known as Cambodian) is the official language of Cambodia.
Khmer is the oldest written language in Southeast Asia. Its record
dates back to 611A.D.
Learning Khmer helps you to understand
the social and cultural aspects of its people before and after the
period of ANGKOR WAT and the massacre of the KILLING FIELDS.
Visit Cambodia now, meet its people,
taste its exotic cuisine, and view the splendid ancient temples
found in all parts of the country.
