The Reason
Fight for Cambodia invests in young men and women who are empowering themselves through martial arts and education. During the Khmer Rouge and subsequent civil war period about 30% of the population, including the majority of professionals, artists, and performers were killed. Martial Artists in particular were targeted. FFC is partnering with Selapak in Phnom Penh and head coach CHAN Rothana. Rothana grew up in the refugee camp learning the ancient art of Yuthakun Khom from his father and is passing that knowledge to people today as a coach and mentor. CHAN Rothana is currently a ONE Championship MMA athlete and instructor at Selapak, Phnom Penh.
