Maybe, our three Ancestors were related a blood altogether in the past!! I can tell about the Thais color skins, and Laos color skins are so similar our Khmer's...Do you think what i think??

Even the Thais words are similar to our Khmer's, too. But i dun know about the Laos letters how look like are!!!

So, we, all three nations should become in once!! Then we could rely to each other! How is that??

You should'nt be suprised to find similar names/words in Khmer, Thai or Laos. We are so close together, it would only seem natural to have had influenced and shared words/names with each other.
