Kitsune Santa in Siem Reap


Kitsune Santa in 2022

The creator noticed that the Siem Reap people were the nicest people on Earth and decided to give them a new Santa that was part kitsune (fox) and part Christmas spirit. Kitsune is Japanese for fox.  In Japanese folklorekitsune (, きつね, are foxes that possess paranormal abilities that increase as they get older and wiser. According to folklore, the kitsune-foxes (or perhaps the “fox spirits”) can bewitch people, just like the tanuki[a] they have the ability to shapeshift into human or other forms, and to trick or fool human beings.

The Kitsune Santa is slimmer than Hotei and therefore not quite as powerful for the belly is the source of his power and probably Hotei’s. However, the Kitsune Santa is getting a bigger belly daily having wonderful Khmer food served joyfully by beautiful Khmer women. How can Kitsune Santa do his job when constantly distracted by the aspara beauties of Siem Reap? What is the job of the Kitsune Santa anyway? The Kitsune Santa has forgotten for he enjoys the sights, sounds and most of all the food of the paradise known as Siem Reap on this Earth.

The Coca Cola Santa Claus had totally failed to promote the spirit of Santa so the creator decided to use a fox (kitsune) this time.  This is the Kitsune Santa not to be confused with the USA Santa that is quite mad due to an overdose of Coca Cola!  The fox only had one tail but when combined with the powers of Santa was a super Santa or a super Kitsune. I guess this depends on your point of view.
