Prince Sisowath Thomico (Photo: RFA)Koh Santepheap News
Translated from Khmer by Heng Soy
Lately, Prince Sisowath Thomico lost his support in a heartbeat as King-Father declared that he is cutting all relationships between the prince and the royal palace, and the prince’s salary for his position as private secretary to King-Father which amounts to $600 per month. At the same time, regarding the movement which he is leading, it is not clear whether it is a front of a political party. The Ministry of Interior (MoI) has officially announced that it does not yet authorized the prince to form a political party. The MoI had urgently issued a statement through its spokesman in response to an interview given by Prince Thomico to Radio Free Asia (RFA) on 18 Sept.
On 17 Sept 2006, at 7:00 PM, from Beijing, King-Father issued an urgent statement saying that Prince Thomico’s plan to see King-Father becoming the new Prime Minister of Cambodia is not what he (King-Father) wants. King-Father said that he will stop paying the $600 salary to Prince Thomico and expelled him out of the royal palace. The statement of King-Father can be read here.
The spokesman of the MoI issued a statement rejecting the claim made by Prince Thomico on RFA broadcasted on 18 Sept 2006, in which the prince said that the MoI accepted the registration of his party, the Sangkum Jatiniyum Front Party. The MoI spokesman considers the declaration made by the Prince as wrong, and as a deception for the public to serve his personal interest.

Mr Sam Rainsy,
Have you recently heard the death threats against prince Thomico? Where are you? Why do you remain silent on it?
Maybe, for you, it's just a problem between YUON XEN and the Royal Family? and this doesn't concern you and your party at all, such as Heng Pov affair which your adviced your members not getting involved.
Maybe your main object is to preserve the coalition plan with CCP after the election 2008.
Since our Independance from France, no Khmer TYRANTS (SIHANOUSS, LON NOL, YUON XEN) could'nt stay for ever, because they are all damned.
YUON XEN will not make an exception to this rule. It will soon be time for him, his familyand his collaborators to pay for their crime and high treason.
I want to hear the answer from the Samraingsists!
What is Yuon SY opinion?
I predict in 2008 we will have a Cambodiasn citizen namedYOUN SY XEN!
Hehehe,
12:54 am posted, you are right. It will be Yuon Sy Xen in 2008. Can we also find a spot for the SKP? How about Yuon Sy AhRidh-AhXen? Too long, I didn't like it either. Find one that is sounded better than mine.
Don't worry Prince Thomico! You will survive! Million of poor Cambodian have much harder time than you and they still survive and you will too!
Only the corrupt Cambodian army will protect AH HUN SEN! Not all Cambodian people can be bought with money!
This is the outcome of Prince Ranarid who is the best partner with Hun Sen. It does not involve with Sam Raingsy. Prince Ranarid deserve to have a result as today bcoz he betray Sam Raingsy twice times already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
