A Chinese funeral procession just passed by my apartment. Blaring loud music and followed by ten or 15 cars this hearse wended its way slowly down the street. Chinese people here in Cambodia bury their dead where as Khmer people cremate usually within 24 hours of death.

Note that the attendees are wearing white, the traditional Asian color of mourning. Note also that there are monks riding in the hearse with the deceased. Buddhism, it is said gives the best outlook on death and so in many countries with multiple religions (Cambodia not being one of them) people choose buddhist priests or monks to preside over the service.
