By Jigsha Desai The Cambodian New Year was celebrated in style as Cambodians in Philadelphia got a chance to take part in a celebration sponsored by the Temple University Cambodian Association (TUCA) last Friday. The event was organized and produced by the members of TUCA. Their hard work was clearly evident as performances progressed without any glitches. The main events everyone looked forward to were two dance performances by members of TUCA. John Huynh, a sophomore at Drexel University, said, "I expected to see cultural and traditional stuff." He also said that Drexel's Cambodian Association already had their New Year celebration prior to this one. Thanh Thach, a freshman at Upper Darby High School "came for the fun of bringing in the Cambodian New Year." TUCA president Channy Vonn decided that unlike last year's fashion show, they would prepare two dances this year.

The group grew to include 5 families and 19 teens, who explored Cambodian culture and cultural concerns through film, books, food and discussion. Participants addressed the importance of family communication by viewing and discussing the film Children of the Mahant Dorai. Some teens voiced their frustration with the lack of communication in their families; others talked about what parents had told them about the war in Cambodia and its impact. An important issue for them was the perceived contrast between Cambodian-American teens and their Cambodian-born parents. Also as part of this project, teens were encouraged to develop

var cm_role = "live" var cm_host = "tripod.lycos.com" var cm_taxid = "/memberembedded" Voice your opinions and views Volume I Issue II Perspective November,1998 A Lost Identity among Cambodian-Americans By Lina Saem The challenge most Cambodian-Americans face today is one of establishing an identity for themselves which is reflective of the two prevailing cultural values and norms that are key to the molding of who they are. Cambodian-Americans are beneficiaries of two cultures that often have diametrically opposing viewpoints in that Cambodian culture subscribes to the notion that a child's life is never really their own, whereas the American culture stresses the fostering of independence in a child and recognizes an adult child's capability to make a decision. Thus, Cambodian-Americans are forever questioning their own adulthood or more appropriately, the lack thereof. [TOP] A second aspect of the differing customs involves the treatment of the elderly. For Cambodians, the adult children and other family members cared for elderly parents traditionally; public assistance was usually not called upon. For Cambodian parents, a child becomes a means of security in the sense that they will act as caretakers when the parents are ill and reach old age. In addition, they function as the "protector" in all aspects of life, ensuring that the health, happiness, and economic well being of the parents are safeguarded. It is at this juncture where we see an apparent role reversal in the Cambodian culture: the parent becomes dependent on the child.

58. Court Dance Comeback In their quest to create a Communist Cambodia, the Khmer Rouge eradicated traditional cambodian culture, especially if related to the former royal court, by http://www.acfnewsource.org/art/cambodian_dance.html

SEARCH STORIES: Navigation June 7, 2004 Court Dance Comeback The Osgood File (CBS Radio Network): 8/28/02 Printer-friendly version E-mail this story to a friend Cambodian court dance, nearly eliminated by the Khmer Rouge, gets new life in the United States. In Long Beach, California, Sophiline Shapiro's classical court dance troupe, Danse Celeste, is beloved by the local population of 55,000 Cambodians who flock to the annual performance celebrating Cambodian New Year. For Cambodians, court dance represents a triumph of the human spirit over one of the worst tragedies in history: the Khmer Rouge's reign of terror over Cambodia from 1975-1979. Court dance and music almost vanished during the Khmer Rouge’s reign of fighting, famine and genocide, but artists managed to secretly keep it alive in refugee camps. Now, this ancient dance form is experiencing a revival in the United States. In their quest to create a Communist Cambodia, the Khmer Rouge eradicated traditional Cambodian culture, especially if related to the former royal court, by executing artists, intellectuals and educated professionals, destroying schools, temples and museums, and banning many Cambodian cultural traditions. Cambodian court dance is an intricate form that requires precise and specific postures and gestures, each with their own meaning. For instance, the bend of a finger, or the turning up of the toes, might represent a bud, a leaf or a flower, or even the concept of water and fertility. Even eye movements can be highly symbolic. The dance was believed to be a bridge between the natural and the spiritual worlds, facilitating communication between the kings, their ancestors, and the gods. Dancers wear elaborate golden headdresses, body paint and brightly colored silk garments.

60. Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month 2004 Music and dance have played an important role in cambodian culture, as part of religious and court ceremonies dating back to the 7th Century. http://www.usdoj.gov/jmd/eeos/apahm/cahi.htm

c Last Update 4/27/04 doj/jmd/ls/jj Cambodian-American Heritage, Inc. (CAHI) is a non-profit organization, founded in 1980. The mission of the organization is the preservation of Cambodian arts and culture here in the United States. The centerpiece of the organization's cultural activities is its dance troupe and music ensemble. For almost 20 years, the troupe has performed selections from the repertoire of Cambodian classical and folk dances. In recent years, the dance troupe and music ensemble have performed in a variety of settings including the 150th anniversary of the Smithsonian Institution, the National Gallery of Art, the Freer Gallery of Art, the American Red Cross, presidential inaugural events, various folk art and heritage festivals and our annual observance of Cambodian New Year during the month of April. Music and dance have played an important role in Cambodian culture, as part of religious and court ceremonies dating back to the 7th Century. This dance and music tradition, passed down from one generation to the next, is an indelible part of Cambodian culture...the lifeblood of Cambodian history, myth and legend, both in the classical dance and the rich and varied folk dances. The state of this highly ornate and stylized art form was seriously threatened in modern times during the rule of the notorious Khmer Rouge regime. From 1975 to 1979, the Khmer Rouge brutalized the Cambodians perished during the period of Khmer Rouge ascendancy. Among the artistic community, it is estimated that 90 percent of the dancers and teachers of the Royal Ballet and students and faculty at the University of Fine Arts perished during this dark period of Cambodian history.
