Khmer Krom
The Khmer Krom ((クメール語:ខ្មែរក្រោម), (ベトナム語:Khơ Me Crộm)) are indigenous Khmer people in southern Vietnam. In the Khmer language, Krom means "lower" or "below", as it refers to the lower reaches of the Mekong Delta, south of Cambodia proper. In the Vietnamese language, they are known as ''Khơ-me Crộm'' or ''Khơ-me dưới'', which literally means "Khmer from below", a translation of the Khmer term.
