Krung are one of the Indigenous ethnic groups of the mountains in Northeast Cambodia. Krung are hill people who have settled in the remote lands and they still keep their traditions. Krung belong to the Mon-Khmer language group.
The Krung are animists. They believe in spirits of mountain, forests, trees, water and earth that dwell in the surrounding. The spirits can be the cause of enormous disasters and must be appeased with rituals and sacrifices in order to avoid hardship for the individual villager and the well-being of community itself. House spirits are less harmful than the former category, but also directly inflict illness or misfortune on the family members. The house must also be protected against more dangerous spirits (163, Schlienger, Ethnic Groups of Cambodia Vol 2, Profile of Austro-Asiatic-Speaking Peoples).

STORYLINE:
The first group of Vietnamese hill tribe members returned to Vietnam on Thursday from refugee camps in Cambodia.
More than 1030 people fled across the border a year ago after a crackdown by Vietnam's government.
Most are members of an ethnic minority group called Montagnards. They fled Vietnam's central highlands into Cambodia last year following a government crackdown on protests over land rights and religious persecution.
The 15 who came back on Thursday and Friday were due to return last Saturday, but their arrival was postponed because of an ongoing diplomatic row. Vietnam has accused the United States of attempting to block the repatriation of the Vietnamese hill tribe members in order to damage Hanoi's reputation.
The United States has offered to help resettle the refugees and says it wants to make sure the refugees are safe before they return. The Vietnamese Foreign Ministry has repeatedly denounced what is says is brazen interference by the US in its internal matters.
Those refugees who returned on Thursday were given a guarantee by officials from the United Nations refugee organisation UNHCR, that they would constantly monitor the repatriation program. But under the agreement any UNHCR visit must be approved by the Vietnamese government.

Arakk Healing Ritual: Brao Group [Ratanakiri, Cambodia]
Bandcamp
In Cambodian villages, shamanic healers conduct ceremonies called Arakk to enter a trance state in which the cause of illness is revealed. The ceremony begins with a song that invites a spirit-world teacher to enter the shaman and preside over the ceremony. Once the cause of the illness is understood, the musicians play a special ending piece to thank the spirits and end the ceremony (Sam, Roongrüang et al. 1998:193–195). The songs give shape and form to the ceremony.
The Brao of Cambodia live in the highland of Northeast Cambodia, Thailand, Laos and the Vietnam. Brao people belong to the Mon-Khmer language group. The Brao people can be ofund in other names such as Kavey, Kravet, Lun, Love, Laveh and Montagnards.Br people are patriarchal society where men held to a higher status than the women of the family.The Brao people are very skillful with music playing gong from bossed gong to flat gongs including drums, zithers and bamboo flutes. Women are more pasionate with singing and dancing. The style of singing and dancing can be similar to other provinces and other ethnic groups of mainland southeast.

STORYLINE:
More than 900 ethnic minority asylum seekers from Vietnam got a step closer to starting their long-awaited journey to the United States on Saturday.
The asylum seekers, from a highland ethnic community also known as Montagnards, began pouring into neighbouring Cambodia almost a year ago after Vietnamese communist authorities cracked down on land rights protests.
The tribespeople, who are Christians, accuse Vietnam's communist government of seizing their traditional lands and denying them freedom to practice their religion.
The government is distrustful of the highlanders because they fought alongside US forces against the communists during the Vietnam War in the 1960s.
More than two weeks ago, Cambodia agreed to allow the highlanders to leave for resettlement in the United States.
US officials said all 905 asylum seekers in two UN-run camps had opted to be settled in the United States instead of going back to their home villages in Vietnam's Central Highlands.
On Saturday, officials began transporting them from the camps in the north-east of the country to a makeshift processing centre just outside the Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh.
The first flights by Cambodian military aircraft carrying the asylum seekers arrived from the UN-run camp in Banlung, the capital of the northeastern province of Ratanakkiri.
Asylum seekers from the second camp in Sen Monorom, the capital of the northeastern province of Mondulkiri, were due to be moved to Phnom Penh by truck on Sunday or Monday.
In all, the transfer operation would last three days, US officials said.
The asylum seekers were expected to spend between two weeks and a month at an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Phnom Penh, while US Immigration and Naturalisation officials interview the prospective immigrants.
The decision to let the highlanders travel to the US annoyed Vietnamese leaders, who said the US offer to resettle the asylum seekers was politically motivated.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen attempted to soothe Vietnam by demanding that the United Nations close the two camps before the end of April.
He also ordered that all people who enter Cambodia without proper documents in the future are treated as illegal entrants, not asylum seekers.

Ratanakiri (Khmer: រតនគិរី[2] IPA: [ˌreə̯̆ʔ taʔ ˈnaʔ ki ˈriː] Mountain of Jewels) is a province (khaet) of Cambodia located in the remote northeast. It borders the provinces of Mondulkiri to the south and Stung Treng to the west and the countries of Laos and Vietnam to the north and east, respectively. The province extends from the mountains of the Annamite Range in the north, across a hilly plateau between the Tonle San and Tonle Srepok rivers, to tropical deciduous forests in the south. In recent years, logging and mining have scarred Ratanakiri's environment, long known for its beauty.
For over a millennium, Ratanakiri has been occupied by the highland Khmer Loeu people, who are a minority elsewhere in Cambodia. During the region's early history, its Khmer Loeu inhabitants were exploited as slaves by neighboring empires. The slave trade economy ended during the French colonial era, but a harsh Khmerization campaign after Cambodia's independence again threatened Khmer Loeu ways of life. The Khmer Rouge built its headquarters in the province in the 1960s, and bombing during the Vietnam War devastated the region. Today, rapid development in the province is altering traditional ways of life. More Info :
Cambodia (Listeni/kæmˈboʊdiə/;[7] Khmer: កម្ពុជា, Kampuchea, IPA: [kɑmpuˈciə]), officially known as the Kingdom of Cambodia (Khmer: ព្រះរាជាណាចក្រកម្ពុជា, Preăh Réachéanachâk Kâmpŭchéa, IPA: [ˈprĕəh riəciənaːˈcɑk kɑmpuˈciə]), is a country located in the southern portion of the Indochina Peninsula in Southeast Asia. It is 181,035 square kilometres (69,898 sq mi) in area, bordered by Thailand to the northwest, Laos to the northeast, Vietnam to the east, and the Gulf of Thailand to the southwest.
Cambodia has a population of over 15 million. The official religion is Theravada Buddhism, practised by approximately 95 percent of the population. The country's minority groups include Vietnamese, Chinese, Chams, and 30 hill tribes.[8] The capital and largest city is Phnom Penh, the political, economic, and cultural centre of Cambodia. The kingdom is a constitutional monarchy with Norodom Sihamoni, a monarch chosen by the Royal Throne Council, as head of state. The head of government is Hun Sen, who is currently the longest serving non-royal leader in South East Asia and has ruled Cambodia for over 25 years.
In 802 AD, Jayavarman II declared himself king, uniting the warring Khmer princes of Chenla under the name Kambuja.[9] This marked the beginning of the Khmer Empire which flourished for over 600 years, allowing successive kings to control and exert influence over much of Southeast Asia and accumulate immense power and wealth. The Indianized kingdom built monumental temples including Angkor Wat, now a World Heritage Site, and facilitated the spread of first Hinduism, then Buddhism to much of Southeast Asia. After the fall of Angkor to Ayutthaya in the 15th century, a reduced and weakened Cambodia was then ruled as a vassal state by its neighbours. In 1863 Cambodia became a protectorate of France which doubled the size of the country by reclaiming the north and west from Thailand.More Info :

Today, rapid development in the province is altering traditional ways of life.
Ratanakiri is sparsely populated; its 150,000 residents make up just over 1% of the country's total population. Residents generally live in villages of 20 to 60 families and engage in subsistence shifting agriculture. Ratanakiri is among the least developed provinces of Cambodia. Its infrastructure is poor, and the local government is weak. Health indicators in Ratanakiri are extremely poor, and almost one in four children die before reaching the age of five. Education levels are also low; three quarters of the population is illiterate. More info
