The Khmer community is one of the ethnic groups with a long process of settling and living in the Southern region. They are agricultural residents with a secluded lifestyle based on the main method of wet rice cultivation.

That existence process which has formed noble qualities in relation to nature has bequeathed lasting and sustainable values so far. Article visualizations:
