Valentine in Cambodia is Good or Bad?

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 2008

Cambodian has been influenced by the foreign cultures over the years. Since the last few years, Valentine's Day is celebrated mostly by the young people.

ADVANTAGES:
1- Young people today know how to show their love to their parents, sisters or brothers, friends, and boyfriends or girlfriends. They buy flowers or gifts and give it to the people that they love and respect. Most people consider that day as a special day for their lovers only.

2- Valentine's day is an occasion that some people can make more money. Last year one of the flower stores at Central Market sold more than 10,000 roses only on one day. One rose is only R1,000 but on the Valentine's Day one rose is R4,000.

DISADVANTAGES:
1- Some you people don't exactly know what love is, but they just fooling around buying flowers and give to each other. This looks crazy and no value to love.

2- Some girls mis-understood once they receive flower from a guy. And she become proud of herself.

3- Most classes at school are quiet because many students skip their classes to hang out with their boyfriends or girlfriends.

4- For some lovers, go to a hotel or guest house on Valentine's day. This is very bad and the wrong choice for girls. It is the worst impact on Cambodian Cultural. Most foreigners want to have a Cambodian girl to be their wife, because of the reputation of Cambodian cultural. Now what? Cambodian Culture may no longer be unique!!!
