Tung Padevat (Khmer: ទង់បដិវត្ត, Tóng Bâdĕvôtt [tɔŋ paɗeʋɔət]; lit. 'Revolutionary Flag') was a Khmer-language journal in Cambodia. Tung Padevat was one of the theoretical organs of the Communist Party of Kampuchea (CPK), generally known as the Khmer Rouge. The first issue was published in January 1975. It was published monthly at least until September 1978. There were also several 'special issues' published.[1]
