A very well-written honorary of a humanitarian who lived his own horrific time in the Khmer Rouge camps. I had the honor of hearing him speak circa 1985 at a small Psychology convention. He told of his story during those struggles of survival in the camp. I remember he said, he and his wife would sneak out at night, taking turns depending on who had more energy, to hunt for insects or other food sources just because they were starving. He spoke of how his wife died in his arms, and he could not use his medical skills to help her because he had to hide the fact that he was educated and an MD. Hearing his story, made my skin crawl; I could not believe the atrocities he lived through. After his presentation, I got to talk to him personally.
Before meeting him that fortuitous day, I had never heard of the genocide under Pol Pot's regime. Because of him and upon researching more, someday, I hope to go on a Christian medical mission to Cambodia. To this day, though not as often, people are still being killed or severely maimed by landmines. I want to go and help them with prosthetics and wheelchairs (I'm an Occupational Therapist) and bring the Word of God to those who wish to learn.
R.I.P. in God's arms, Dr. Haing S. Ngor
I had the great honor and privilege of meeting this extraordinary man. He was so kind and humble. I just finished his amazing memoirs. What he endured and still faced life with hope and optimism has made him my hero. God bless you, Haing, and I know you are in heaven with your beloved wife.
What a tragedy. A man who had survived the killing fields of his own country, only to be murdered in what should have been a safe place for him, the United States. But his Oscar winning role as Dith Pran, sadly also dead, means he will not be forgotten.

That's mean He was watched and wanted by the Khmer rouge all the time even he already in the US . The Khmer rouge not yet ending and they still hunting the people who opposite them and exposed their dirth .
He was killed by his own people. The 3 Asian gang members were also Cambodian Khmers.
US safe place
@@solidstudd22 Correct they shot him because he didn't give them the locket that contained a picture of his deceased wife. He did give them his gold rolex first. I guessed he loved his wife so much; so he refused to give them that locket then they shot him. That was so cruel of the gang members.
A voice silenced too soon. RIP Dr. Haing S. Ngor.

RIP Haing S. Ngor (March 22, 1940 - February 25, 1996), aged 55
You will always be remembered as a legend.
Never to be forgotten. RIP 🕊️
He survived such tragedies but got killed in the “land of the free”
disgusting
Rest in peace
Such a tragedy.
Maybe the reason is some of the Cambodian Communist unhappy to the doctor to expose their past to the world through the movie
Read the book by him, it's very good but extremely sad (Survival in the Killing Fields). No need to put apostrophes, even if the US government Tortured and Shot one in every four children born it would still be free in comparison to the regime he came from.
@Meyer Aliyeh No, by three Asian gang members Lazy-boy and they were from Cambodia too.
RIP dr.Ngor, such a great man who endured so much.
Miss love this guy ....❤️❤️❤️😢😢😢
Such sad irony that a man who survived brutal war and violence then dies by needless violence in the country that saved his life
Dr. Haing Ngor,
You have not been forgotten.
Yeah, you!
Gone but not Forgotten

Tragic. What a shame. I didn't know his wife had died before he got to the states. I saw the movie but didn't see a biography on him.

He was the film, but he only got a prize for a supporting role.
RIP Dr Hang Ngor and Dith Pran (who he portrayed in "The Killing Fields", lest we forget).
He is Asian and It's holiwood.. That's why..

I'm from Cambodia 🇰🇭😰
He survived in a unsurvival country at that time but lost his life in a free country. How tragic.
And the same day the Haing Ngor murder trial ended, Pol Pot, the ruthless despot died peacefully surrounded by a few followers. Just finished reading Surviving in the Killing Fields, brutal account, so much trauma.
I've missed him
Amazing story
A BRILLIANT BEAUTIFUL MAN...
My idol, Mr. HAING S.NGOR ❤❤ RIP.
😔😔😢😢😢
He is the best human being in 20th century.
I was sad when I read of his murder.

My friend's parents were killed because they owned a pharmacy and him, his brothers and sisters escaped. Ironically I owe Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees everything for supporting me in my teenage years. Funny how all you ever hear about is the special class suffering from 80yrs ago

RIP
Polpots terror regime never been forgoten by his victims when he is in power
Henry Kissinger wanted to bomb the lands in Cambodia, resulting in the rise of power of the Khmer Rough, which led to the killing fields.
ewroylong 😞😞😞
Kissinger is a war criminal who should face justice for the atrocities he committed in Cambodia.
@@@lancegoodthrust546
Calm down. Of course Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge are responsible for what is arguably the most egregious political movement in modern history.
However, Nixon and Kissinger are responsible for the inexcusable carpet bombing of Cambodia which was a war crime in itself. The bombing was so destructive that it served as a propaganda tool for displaced villagers to join the Khmer Rouge.
