Major general Thongvan Fanmuong was a Cambodian senior military officer who served in the Khmer National Armed Forces under the Khmer Republic regime of Lon Nol.[1][2] He was a graduate of the French École d'État Major and the École de Guerre in Paris. He was a member of the supreme committee of the Republic of Cambodia, along with General Sak Sutsakhan, Long Boret, Hang Thun Hak, Op Kim Ang, General Ea Chhong (Chief-of-Staff of the Khmer Air Force), and Admiral Vong Sarendy (Chief-of-Staff the Khmer National Navy).[2] The committee tried to "organize a surrender" as the Khmer Rouge took over the country.[2]
