Chinese Cambodians : ウィキペディア英語版 | Chinese Cambodian
Chinese Cambodians are Cambodian people of Chinese or partial Chinese descent. The Khmer term ''Khmer kat Chen'' () is used for peoples of mixed Cambodian & Chinese descent while ''Khmer Chen'' () can mean Cambodian born citizens of Chinese ancestry (''Khmer'' is the majority ethnic group of Cambodia and ''Chen'' means "Chinese" in the Khmer language). During the late 1960s and early 1970s, they were the largest ethnic minority in Cambodia; there were an estimated 425,000. However, by 1984, there were only 61,400 Cambodians of Chinese ancestry left. This has been attributed to a combination of warfare, economic stagnation, Khmer Rouge and Vietnamese persecution, and emigration. There are, however, tens of thousands of mixed Chinese and Khmer ancestry. Despite their relatively small population, Chinese Cambodians are over represented in some of the most visible aspects of Cambodian society, often leading to feelings ranging from resentment to outright discrimination by "pure" Khmers. Chinese Cambodians play leading roles in the Cambodian business sector as well as within Cambodia's political scene. Chinese Cambodians also have a considerable presence in the Cambodian economy and are estimated to own a vast share of it.〔(China-Cambodia: More than just friends? )〕 Many Chinese Cambodians are particularly influential in the Cambodian banking sector where money-lending and shopkeeping enterprises are prevalent. Of particular note is China's economic role in the country which encouraged Sino-Khmer businessmen to reestablish their past businesses which were once suppressed by the Khmer Rouge.〔 ==History==
