Ranariddh Seen as Drowning Mouse Trying To Cling to Hun Sen Despite Being Scorned

Translated from Khmer

Prince Ranariddh, president of the extremely deplorable FUNCINPEC [National United Front for an Independent, Neutral, Peaceful, and Cooperative Cambodia] Party, arrived in Siemreab as planned but has not received any grand welcome as he used to when he was National Assembly chairman.

It should be recalled that before he returned to Cambodia, his partner Hun Sen gave him a strong verbal blow in the face and even threatened to fire any government officials who dare to kowtow to and flatter the prince as before. For this reason, not many FUNCINPEC big shots were seen going to Siemreab to show their faces in welcoming the prince, for fear of being sacked by Hun Sen.

Although Hun Sen attacked him so pitilessly , the extremely weak Prince Ranariddh kept maintaining that he would preserve the alliance with the Cambodian People's Party [CPP], especially with Prime Minister Hun Sen for the sake of political stability in Cambodia.

Prince Ranariddh told the media in Siemreab province last Thursday, 17 August, "In reality, a part of the FUNCINPEC members, I am not saying the majority, have wondered how far would the prince continue this alliance if they kept deriding him and he did not even fight back. Moreover, they also kept removing senior FUNCINPEC officials from their government posts, such as ministers and provincial governors."

Prince Ranariddh went on to say with a sad expression, "I beg my people for understanding. In my capacity as a person, as a son of the king, and as a politician, it does not mean that I am not hurt. As president of FUNCINPEC, I am very hurt when I see the injustices against my party. But I have to look at something beyond the trees that could conceal the truth. Behind those trees are the forests and the biggest forest is the nation. The forest of medium size is the FUNCINPEC Party and the smallest of them is I myself."

Prince Ranariddh still continued to give himself more value than anyone else by saying that if there is any forest he sees as bigger than anyone else it is the forest of political stability.

However, the observers as well as the Cambodian people no longer believe in Prince Ranariddh because from the second term to the current third term, the prince has used the term stability to fool the people without any shame. In reality, Prince Ranariddh's stability is just something that would help him keep his own power and benefit.

Most circles have assessed that not only Prince Ranariddh is very scared of Hun Sen, he has made the members as well as the people who used to support the FUNCINPEC Party lose faith in him, for the prince's hurt for being scorned by his partner Hun Sen has not been transformed into any resolve but has kept him utterly dependent on others as before.

Hun Sen recently launched an indirect broadside against Prince Ranariddh, saying, "Other people's work is as vast as the country, but his is just a palm-wide field... Why is it so difficult if he just goes away and then comes back...If he left quietly he should come back quietly too."

Hun Sen then expressed extreme disappointment as Prince Ranariddh told the media that he had begged him to return to Cambodia. Hun Sen hit back, saying, "Why did he value himself so highly like that? When he went away, he went away by himself. When he came back, did I have to invite him back? He has acted worse than Mike Tyson...Just get lost..."

Noting the shaky relationship between the CPP and the FUNCINPEC Party, most observers said that the FUNCINPEC Party headed by Prince Ranariddh would soon see the truth. The CPP no longer wants a weakling like Prince Ranariddh to be its partner. They have realized that to let Prince Ranariddh cling on to the CPP's back, both will surely drown.

Sam Rainsy, president of the Sam Rainsy Party [SRP] who refused to forge the alliance of nationalists with the FUNCINPEC Party used to say, "Prince Ranariddh and the FUNCINPEC Party now are like a drowning man. If he grabs someone, he would bring him down together. As for the SRP, it would never allow Prince Ranariddh to cling to it."

According to an information, a meeting would be held at the FUNCINPEC headquarters on 19 August under the chairmanship of Prince Ranariddh, and a report would be presented concerning the past activities and work performance of the Secretariat. Prince Ranariddh also would make a speech giving counsel to the party members on that occasion.

However, a veteran FUNCINPEC official said that if Prince Ranariddh listens only to the report and does not go to the localities he would surely be duped by the sycophant officials because a number of officials have already defected to the CPP and many of the party supporters in the localities who have lost their faith in the deplorable party leader have come over to the SRP en masse almost daily.

Therefore, it is right for Prince Ranariddh to announce his resolve to continue clinging on to the CPP's back, for the FUNCINPEC Party is nearing its end. However, it is not certain that the CPP would let FUNCINPEC cling to it.

As for the monitors of Cambodia's political situation, they have assessed the fate of the FUNCINPEC Party at the end of this third term by comparing this party to banana leaf used for wrapping a steamed rice dumpling that is thrown away once the dumpling is cooked.

You poor Barstard Ranariddh, your time will soon come for betraying your own people who die in vain for the stupid FUNCINPEC.
After so many years of bloodshed you when and help the CPP and Ah Hun Sen when the people need you most.
Your stupidity will determine your own faith. You a Master in dumbness.
Soon, there will be no more FUNCINPEC hopefully will lead to no more communist royalty like your father and your half Viet brother currently visiting China.
The khmer people is smart enough to judge who is good as performing lip services like you and ah Hun Sen are outstanding at it.
All talk but no actions where is all the donated money? beside in Hun Sen pocket did you get any?, why did you want to get back cause he didn't give you enough?

Yes, I agree wholeheartedly with the last part of the article - "...term by comparing this party to banana leaf used for wrapping a steamed rice dumpling that is thrown away once the dumpling is cooked...". Around here, it would mean that FUNCIPEC is just a trash bag to ah Chhkaer Yuon Hun Sen,no more no less, except that in Phnom Penh they don't need the trash bag, they just trash it all over the place, right? As for you Ranariddh, this time, you may have to do more than just holding and massaging ah Chhkaer Yuon Hun Sen's dick for him to pee...you may have to really kiss his arse in order for you to survive politically...Some fool Prince you are, Ranariddh!

Je suis completement en accord avec la derniere partie de cet article - << ...term by comparing this party to banana leaf used for wrapping a steamed rice dumpling that is thrown away once the dumpling is cooked...>>, mais par ici il veut simplement dire que FUNCIPEC, selon le dartreux chien de Hanoi, HUN SEN, est simplement un sac d'ordures, sauf a Phnom Penh on utilise pas des sacs d'ordures..on n'a juste qu'a les jeter partout ou on veut, n'est-ce pas? Et quant a Ranariddh, cette fois ci, il devrait peut etre faire quelque chose extra pour qu'il survive politiquement, et vous, les beaux-parleurs comprennent bien ce que veut dire l'expression "KISS HUN SEN's ARSE" nest-ce pas? Et voila, en revanche, QUEL FOUTU PRINCE TU ES, RANARIDDH!!!
