[Vietnamization] Cambodia's Curse - Demographic Colonialism:"...the Vietnamese migrated southward until they outnumbered Cambodians"

Theary Seng: The new 6-lane highway along the sea coast connecting Kampot to Vietnam (Ha Tien) running through Kep and destroying several fishing villages in its path and the once protected mangrove forest is now (as of 1 Dec. 3014) at Om Peng Village, within sight of the next village of Ang Kaol where we worked for 3 years). We arrived at 11:30 when students were getting out school. They said each house is paid a certain sum (they don't know the amount) as it's destroyed and the family left homeless. Again imagine having 6-lane highway running through and around Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket islands. I am reminded of history:

"...the Vietnamese migrated southward until they outnumbered Cambodians in the southern delta region. Over time, they became the de facto rulers" (Joel Brinkley, Cambodia's Curse).
