“At the start of the Khmer Rouge regime, I was around 14 years old. I was in a ‘children’s unit’. We had to dig mass graves for the fallen soldiers. There were about 1000 bodies in each grave.”

«នៅដើមរបបខ្មែរក្រហម ខ្ញុំមានអាយុប្រហែល ១៤ឆ្នាំ។ ខ្ញុំនៅក្នុង 'អង្គភាពកុមារ'។ យើងត្រូវជីកផ្នូរដ៏ធំសម្រាប់ទាហានដែលបានស្លាប់។ មានសាកសពមនុស្សប្រហែល ១០០០ នៅក្នុងផ្នូរនីមួយៗ”។
The “Virtual Memorial” project (www.virtualmemorial.asia) provides an interactive online multi-media platform that educates future generations and memorializes the mass atrocities committed under Khmer Rouge ruling. The project provides Cambodian youth with access to video testimonials of Khmer Rouge survivors, as well as relevant documentaries, photos, paintings, and archival documents. This window into the past is vital in shaping the upcoming generations’ perceptions of historical events as well as their hopes for the future. Meta House, Cambodia’s first independent arts, media and communication center, is spearheading this project under the umbrella of the international NGO, Cambodian-German Cultural Organization (KDKG). “Virtual Memorial” was supported by the German “Institute for Foreign Relations” (Institut fuer Auslandsbeziehungen/IFA) through the ZIVIC fund (www.ifa.de/en/), from 2019-2021. #Virtualmemorial #Testimonial #Khmerrouge #Genocide #PolPot #Holocaust #Hunger #Communism #Torture #S21 #Toulsleng #Killingfields
