An event to launch the Khmer-language version of the graphic novel “The Golden Voice Queen” – which is about the life and career of one of the Kingdom’s most famed singers, Ros Serey Sothea – was attended by a large crowd of hundreds of young people on November 30.
Driven by their passion for films and songs from the pre-Khmer Rouge era – cultural treasures of their Khmer heritage – Preah Sorya, a youth group working to document the golden era, recently released the results of their ongoing research project. The group has archived over 5,000 songs, including a wide mix of traditional Khmer music.
