STOP BEING MANIPULATED, BIASED OR BLIND Foreign observers who don’t know the Khmer language and culture are fooled by the CPP propaganda into believing that the word "Yuon" - meaning anything related to Vietnam, in the same way as "German" means "Deutsch" for anything related to Germany -- is derogatory or even has racist connotation. Each time I publicly use this word “Yuon,” those foreigners backed by some foreign-funded local NGOs eager to please their misled benefactors, criticize me for using a "derogatory term with racist connotation." However, if you do Google search in Khmer by just entering the word "យួន" (Yuon), you will find "about 113,000 results" referring to writings in Khmer containing the appellation "យួន," published over a recent period of time, which means that this word "Yuon" is being used by everybody everyday in Cambodia, in all occasions, without having any pejorative connotation. This is confirmed by the most authoritative Cambodian dictionary published by the Buddhist Institute and used by every Khmer student and scholar.
