Sorry, but if you don't give a reason for your edit in an Edit summary, there is no way of checking whether it's correct. Do you have a reason for removing Vietnamese? Rodhullandemu 17:23, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi, I sent you a message at your page. Could you respond? Thanks.
Here is what I wrote:
---begin quote Hey Rodhullandemu,
I read Philip Short's book on Pol Pot (which is offered as the citation for Pol Pot's ethnic background), and it only mentions that he is Sino-Khmer. There is no mention of any Vietnamese background. The only places where Pol Pot is suggested to be of Vietnamese descent are ultranationalist Khmer discussion boards, and I suspect that one of their members must have inserted the "Vietnamese" bit on his ethnic background.
P.S.: I'm new here. Where do I put the above explanation into the discussion section of this page? Thanks. ---end quote
