First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers







2012 is the Year of the Dragon on the lunar calendar celebrated by many Asian nations. In Chinese astrology, the Year of the Dragon arrived on Monday, January 23 and brings with it optimism and hope for better times ahead.

Peace to you all,
