Dual Spokesmen Suggest Deepening F'pec Split - [Possibly a battle between Nhiek Bun Chhay and Ranariddh]

The factionalized royalist party has apparently split further, with Funcinpec President Prince Norodom Ranariddh appointing his own personal spokesman and party members questioning the status of newly appointed Funcinpec spokesman Nouv Sovathero.

Former Funcinpec spokesman Chea Chanboribo, who was recently removed from his position by Funcinpec Secretary-General Nhiek Bun Chhay, has been named as Prince Ranariddh's spokesman, according to a May 26 statement obtained on Thursday.

Chea Chanboribo, whose new title will be "spokesman for Samdech Krom Preah, the president of the Funcinpec party," could not be reached for comment.

Nouv Sovathero said on Thursday that he was appointed by Nhiek Bun Chhay to communicate with the media on the activities of Funcinpec headquarters.

Chea Chanboribo's reappointment makes for an unclear distinction regarding work roles, Nouv Sovathero said, adding that Nhiek Bun Chhay would decide on the matter with the party when he returned from China.

Funcinpec Deputy Secretary-Getreral Mam Bun Neang said that people had been confused by Nouv Sovathero's role and he did not have the authority to comment on behalf of the party. Chea Chanboribo will be the spokesman for Prince Ranariddh, he said. "Chea Chanboribo's position is higher than Nouv Sovathero," Mam Bun Neang added.

Sam Rainsy Party parliamentarian Eng Chhay Eang said the tussle over Funcinpec spokesmen was ultimately a battle between the secretary-general and the president.

Maybe it is the border of speech conflict between Ranarith and Mr 88 (Bun chai)

where is King Father? Why don't you protect your son? maybe because you have no power in this case?
But you have power to tell your son Sihamoni to sign supplemented 1985's border treaties, to agree completely with Hun Sen (psychopath)

Bun Chhay will the SAME DESTINY as PHUN PHEAP (Khmer Rouge), NGOUN SOEU (Funcipec official).

PHUN PHEAP killed in december 1997 on the sea after finished his duties (proposed by Hun Sen, 2nd prime minister) against RANARITH, 1st prime minister

NGOUN SOEU fired from his position after finished his duties (proposed by Hun Sen, 2nd prime minister) against RANARITH, 1st prime minister

Now, BUN CHHAY will be the SAME

Be care!! CPP is a COMMUNIST PARTY!! Communist is dictatorial, savage!!

Hun Sen is a communist one, a dictator

Only the election (2008) will demolish Hun Sen
