Cambodia is a country that has a lot of ceremonies. Three types of ceremony are held.
Religious, national and royal. The Pouching Ceremony is one of the royal ceremonies. I his major festival is held once a year at the beginning of the wet season during May, in the middle of the Khmer of Pisak. At this important time, the King expresses his ideas about the envelopment of the country. The festival is celebrated over four days, but the final day is the most important.
The royal cattle that are used in the ceremony are chosen very carefully. Their color must he black or white and before the ceremony they are decorated in a traditional way so they look very beautiful. The person who does the sloughing is also very important. In previous times, the King did the task himself, but nowadays he is replaced by a member of the Royal Family or the Royal Palace. This person, who is appointed by the King, is called the "Sdech Meak"
