Sichan Siv was a victim of the Khmer Rouge. Among the nearly 2 million killed under the regime were 15 members of his family. But Siv Sichan has, as they say in Khmer, floating bones: He not only escaped death under the regime but rose to a high-ranking position in the White House.
He arrived for a brief visit to Cambodia this week to discuss his memoir, “Golden Bones,” published earlier this year.
