Oh! Phnom Penh

Composed by Musicians who survived the Khmer Rouge genocide (1975-79).
 Oh! Phnom Penh is a tear-filled ode of Love to their beloved capital city, the population of which was forcibly evacuated by the Khmer Rouge and the city of Phnom Penh lay empty for 3 years 8 months and 20 days.

Phnom Penh was never the same again and a large percentage of the original inhabitants were never to return, having perished under Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge.
