Most of the Muslims here are ethnic Cham people that came here from Malaysia/Indonesia centuries ago. They sailed here, and because the river here is very wide and deep, they were able to sail deep into the interior of the country. Many of them are still fishing cultures and living in fishing communities, but because much time has passed since then, many of the Muslims have purchased land and become agricultural.
I just remembered I met a now-famous musician many years ago here in Cambodia, and he was from your country, he goes by the name of Ras Muhammad. He played a small reggae show in the town I was living in, and somebody said he was also Rastafari like me. I went and saw him drinking, smoking, and trying to find a girl to take home after the show, and I think he was only using the Rastafari image for marketing appeal in his reggae music.
Have you heard of him before?
It seems that you know well the history of Cambodia, its politics, its multi-ethnicity and the history of the entry of religions there. It seems that your love for Cambodia is so great, even though you are actually a citizen of the United States, aren't you 😄
I do not know him @justinparke, only occasionally read news about him in online media. Moreover, the genre of reggae music is not very liked by the majority of Indonesian people. Automatically information related to his personal life, I don't know much about it. but if you want to know my assessment of him based on the youtube video you shared, then based on the lyrics of the song I can judge that maybe he is a Rastafari adherent. I also read from online media, he has lived in the United States since childhood, attended elementary school until he finished his bachelor's degree in Brooklyn and knew and studied reggae music there too, until he got the title "Ras" there. And the title "Ras" is until now juxtaposed in front of his name Ras Muhammad..
