Vietnamese Cambodians: Difference between revisions

'''Vietnamese Cambodians''' refer to ethnic group of [[Vietnamese people|Vietnamese]] living in [[Cambodia]]. According to Cambodian sources, in 2013 there are about 15,000 Vietnamese people living in Cambodia. Vietnamese source said there are 160,000 people living in Cambodia,<ref name="CIACB">[https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/countries/cambodia/ Cambodia] CIA World FactBook.</ref> while the actual number could be somewhere between 400,000 and one million people, according to independent scholars.<ref name="cambodia">{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/03/28/magazine/cambodia-persecuted-minority-water-refuge.html|title=A People in Limbo, Many Living Entirely on the Water|publisherwork=[[The New York Times]]|date=2018-03-28}}</ref> They mostly reside in southeastern parts of Cambodia bordering Vietnam or on [[boathouse]]s in the [[Tonlé Sap]] lake and [[Mekong]] rivers. The first Vietnamese came to settle modern-day Cambodia from the early 19th century during the era of the [[Nguyễn lords]] and most of the Vietnamese came to Cambodia during the periods of [[French protectorate of Cambodia|French colonial administration]] and the [[People's Republic of Kampuchea]] administration. During the [[Khmer Republic]] and [[Khmer Rouge]] governments in the 1970s, the Vietnamese were targets of mass genocides; thousands of Vietnamese were killed and many more sought refuge in Vietnam. Ethnic relations between the [[Cambodians]] and Vietnamese are poor and the Vietnamese have been the main target of [[Xenophobia|xenophobic]] attacks by political parties since the 1990s. Most of the Vietnamese are stateless residents of Cambodia and as a result they face difficulties in getting access to education, employment, and housing.
