Considering it’s getting tougher and tougher to get a job in Cambodia nowaday due to tight job market and increasing number of youth, not to mention that guys will have to serve a 18-month military service, considering all these, how is an average Cambodian guy able to save up $5,000, the so-called minimum requirement to get a wife in Cambodia?

No worry, my friends! SuperMoan to the rescue!!!! Here comes the chicken!!!

According to one of my friends, there is a place in Cambodia where we can get a wife with just… “a chicken“. Yes, that place, my friends! is Rattanakiri, the land of our “bong pa’oun jun jeet” from various tribes. One of the tribal traditions during the marriage is that the man must give the girl’s family at the minimum “a chicken” as present for their ancestors. And they’re open to cross-racial marriages.

So guys, forget about the $5,000 thing, get ready, pack your bags, buy a chicken, off we go, Rattanakiri, here we come…..wait! wait! wait! is it a live chicken or the chicken rice-styled chicken with a little bit of chili sauce? And what will happen after marriage? I’m afraid you’ll need to find out yourself.

These are just words of mouth only, it may be false. Don’t blame me if you ended up being a sacrifice for the tribal gods.

By the way, cross-racial marriages with ethnic groups are nothing new in Cambodia, there are also plenty of songs praising the beauty of the tribal girls and hightlighting about cross-racial loves such as this one. Oh! you’d better learn this song before setting off.
