Khmer Voices
Growing up in Canada, there was a lack of representation of stories that truly resonated with my experiences when it came to professionals. In this podcast, I aim to close this gap. We're celebrating and amplifying Khmer voices through conversations with Khmer people dispersed around the world. We discuss their journey, successes, failures and their upbringing.

The Only Asian in The Class with Sokha Mov
Sokha Mov shares her journey from being born in a refugee camp in Thailand to growing up in France where she was the only Asian in her class, navigating cultural identity, and pursuing a career in law and public service. She discusses her transition to Cambodia, the challenges of adapting to life there even though she’s koun Khmer and she speaks the language with good fluency.
She’s currently working at an NGO that provides a well rounded education to girls from kindergarten to post-secondary and is also an Advisor for Cambodia’s Ministry of Labor and Vocational Training. Prior to these roles, she owned and operated two businesses, worked for the French government in different Ministries, and practiced law in France.
