  • Back to the early 70'S, during our young age, Takmau town was devided into several small zones, Puork Treuy Mkhang, Puork Phsa Deum Mean, and the most two well known were " Krom Spean Dek or Puork Raung Kon " and " Krom Spean Thmor ". Section west of Takhmau market was considered as " Pak Spean Thmor " while the east was known as " Pak Spean Dek or Puork Raung Kon ". I house was located about 200 meters west of the market. Steung Takhmau was my swimming pool, I used to use Spean Thmor as my diving platform or diving board. Once in a while I enjoyed having fun with the Khmer Islams ( Cham ), I appologize, I'm not trying to offend the Cham people, just want to share my silly/funny stuffs when I was a kid . One early morning I scared one of the guy, while he was bowing his head down at the head of his boat as he was praying, I dived under the water and suddenly popped out off the water infront of him with a loud scaring noise, the guy was scared to death, he jumped off his boat into the water... we was so enjoyed our stupidity at that time.
