RM2B02W39–Longvek was a city in ancient Cambodia, the capital city of the country after the sacking of Angkor by the Siamese in 1431. Little more than a village today in Kampong Chhnang Province, it lies just north of Oudong.

RM2B032BR–Asmara Moerni is (or perhaps was) a 1941 romance film from the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia) directed by Rd Ariffien and produced by Ang Hock Liem for Union Films.

As with most Indonesian films of this era, Asmara Moerni may be lost.
