Legendary Cambodian director Tea Lim Koun was conferred a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Bangkok Asean Film Festival on Friday.
The 78-year-old director, who lives in Canada, received the prize for films, which include “Puos Keng Kang,” or Snake Man. Starring Chea Yuthorn and Dy Saveth, it was a box-office success when first released in the 1970s and remains a classic.
Mr. Lim Koun directed 15 feature films in the 1960 and 1970s. When the Khmer Rouge took over the country in April 1975, he was in Bangkok promoting one of his movies. Unable to return, he moved to Canada and has lived in Montreal since.

“Puos Keng Kang” also earned Mr. Lim Koun the 1973 Best Director award from the Federation of Motion Picture Producers in Asia-Pacific. In 2012, it was shown at the Berlin International Film Festival and the Tokyo International Film Festival...

Your attitude must be very encouraging for any young Cambodians reading this. Maybe you could try and be a bit positive instead of just pointing out faults?

I have just read this thread for the first time and wonder to myself what I could report ,as things to have pride in, of my own country? A history of war seems to be celebrated. Perhaps a pride in natural beauty, or the achievements of some of my fellow countrymen. Beyond that I struggle to see where the 'pride' in one's country comes from. These things are all things Khmer could be "proud" of too.
