    What an amazing story! Your parents are incredible, as are you for embodying their dream, with grace and gratitude!

    Actually the Cheng family’s story is a true reflection of many immigrants’ American dreams. If they can realize their American dreams from 0 dollars in their pockets, why cannot you do yours?

    Thanks Kimberly for sharing your family story. It’s an inspiring family story which reflected ours too. As a first generation immigrant, I’m so proud of being an American. This great country is blessed by God and provides everyone opportunities to succeed.

    Wow. Such an inspirational story Kim. My wife’s family had almost a mirror image of your family’s story. From escaping Cambodia and ending up in SoCal and owning a donut shop. Thanks for representing the Khmer community!

    Does Kimberly speak cambodian with her parents? Or English? Or mix both at the same time ? Just wondering 🤔.

    • @KhmerKandal

      I'm sure can understand more than speaking just like any typical Khmer American speaking Khmerish.

    Growing up in the 90806, we grew up with Khmer people. By the 80s they opened donut shops all over Ca. Great people and best donuts are made by Khmer people.

    These kind of stories really touches my heart always. The sad thing about this kind of stories. Is the fact that so many people who are born here in the United States don’t even realize how lucky they are to be born here and do not have to go through most immigrants have to go through to achieve the American Dream. All they do is complain and think that they are all entitled for the American Dream and just be handed to them. And those same people blames for immigrants to be taking their jobs when they don’t even want to work hard start from the bottom and work their way up.

    • @KhmerKandal
      @KhmerKandal 2 роки тому +2

      Get over that old views of Asian American wanting to be other than themselves. All I know is she doing a great job as a broadcaster representing not just Khmer American, but as an American.

    • @crew
      @crew 2 роки тому

      Why only Asian? Indians, Latinos and Africans from Africa all speak and act this way being born in America. Hair bleaching is common in any race, including white people. You just can’t stand Asians being happy huh lmao

      I don’t see any pretending. I see an individual who grew up with sacrificial parents who raised her well, and ended up becoming a successful news reporter after a prestigious education. More success to her and her family ❤

      Give it a rest, fool. Shes probably not even a Boba. At least attack a legit Boba- they always hated their own skin and Asian Features openly, no matter how much "stop Asian Hate" fake virtue signaling they do today.
      She grew up in Hollywood, what do you expect. There was Asian Flight from most of Hollywood once people started moving to Orange County and Monterey Park.
