Join Lap Siu of Montagnard Channel and Dr. Josh Jensen as they travel to Đo Village, Ia Tum Commune, Ou Ya Dav District, Ratanakiri Province, Cambodia, to explore the unique plant knowledge of the Jarai people. In this video, we learn the Jarai names and traditional uses of several plants, including phŭn trŏng se (phŭn arŏng se), phŭn tơpang (phŭn kơpang), phŭn tơnong (phŭn kơnong), and drơi mlâo, a fascinating plant that closes its leaves when touched. Discover how the Jarai of Cambodia and Vietnam use these plants for traditional medicine, food wrapping, water containers, bowls, plates, kites, and other everyday purposes. This cultural and ethnobotanical journey highlights Jarai language, indigenous knowledge, traditional plant use, village life, and the rich cultural heritage of the Montagnard people in Cambodia's remote Ratanakiri Province. If you know the English names of any of these plants, please leave a comment below and help us preserve and document Jarai culture, language, and traditional knowledge for future generations.
