Notes:	Merged with: Gecko (Adelaide, S. Aust.), to form: International journal of narrative therapy and community work Describes the specific circumstances that service providers face when addressing domestic violence issues of Cambodian people in Australia. The 1970s Pol Pot regime turned Cambodians against each other, including members of the same family, and distorted the concepts of community and state. State-funded services in Australia were seen as agencies intended to separate families, perception reinforced by pronouncements of racist politicians against Asian immigration. Community services managed to create a space for abused Cambodian women through the local church and focusing on health issues.
