"Anthem of the People's Republic of Kampuchea" (Khmer: បទចម្រៀងនៃសាធារណរដ្ឋប្រជាមានិតកម្ពុជា, Bât Châmrieng ney Sathéarônârôdth Brâchéaméanit Kâmpŭchéa [ɓɑt cɑmriəŋ nɨj saːtʰiərĕənarŏət prɑciəmiənɨt kampuciə]) was the national anthem of the People's Republic of Kampuchea from 1979 to 1992. It was composed by Keo Chinda and Chy Saopea. While Vietnam and most Communist governments recognized the People's Republic of Kampuchea during its existence, the Khmer Rouge, together with the monarchists and Khmer People's National Liberation Front, formed the Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea that continued to use the anthem of Democratic Kampuchea. It was this government-in-exile that was recognized by China, North Korea, Romania, and most Western Bloc governments and the United Nations; as such, many Western sources continued to list "Dap Prampi Mesa Moha Chokchey" as being the Cambodian national anthem until the restoration of the monarchy in 1993.[1]
