Question

Myanmar is a Muslim country and the Rohingya minority is Christian, and in Cambodia religion is not a source of conflict.
Myanmar has tension between the Murman and the many Indigenous ethnic minorities and Cambodia has tension with people from the neighboring country of Vietnam.
Myanmar is a Buddhist country and the Rohingya minority are Muslim and in Cambodia, the Vietnamese are Buddhist and the Cambodians are Muslim.
Cambodia has tension between the Khmer and the many Indigenous ethnic minorities and Myanmar has tension with the neighboring country of Thailand.

Answer 1

The statement that best compares the source of ethnic tensions in Myanmar and Cambodia is:

Myanmar is a Buddhist country and the Rohingya minority are Muslim and in Cambodia, the Vietnamese are Buddhist and the Cambodians are Muslim.

However, it's important to note that in Cambodia, the majority group (Khmer) is predominantly Buddhist, and while there are tensions with the Vietnamese, both groups primarily practice Buddhism. The key point of comparison here is the Buddhist-Muslim divide in Myanmar, particularly with the Rohingya, who face significant persecution. The tensions in Cambodia generally relate more to national identity and migration rather than religious differences.
