PHNOM PENH, Oct. 5 (Xinhua) -- Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said in Pursat Province Thursday that those predicting similar coup in Cambodia as that in Thailand should regulate themselves, and coup was just impossible to happen in the kingdom.

"Please calm down. Don't say such things anymore, otherwise you will be in trouble," said Hun Sen during his inspection of the provincial irrigation system.

The Cambodians wanted peace and they didn't want any warfare anymore, so the kingdom wouldn't see any coup, he added.

Hun Sen made the remarks in response to some radio broadcasts, where the commentators said that similar coup as that in Thailand might occur in Cambodia, as the two countries shared some similarities in political and military systems and historical backgrounds.

With deeply-rooted military background, Hun Sen currently has a tight control over the kingdom's army and police. Meanwhile, his Cambodian People's Party enjoys dominating superiority in the government, the National Assembly and the Senate.

On Sept. 20, the Thai armed forces seized power without firing a shot, dismissed Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra's government, revoked the constitution and promised a swift return to democracy after political reforms.

On Oct. 1, Thailand's military leaders swore in a stop-gap prime minister and unveiled an interim constitution.

Who would have the biggest heart to challenge Hun Sen militarily?

This might come from within the ranks of the military themselves.

Do they prefer to continue to obey Hun Sen and allow to ruin Cambodia or they dare try.

Pity Hun Sen,
If you did not do something wrong to the people and the country such as historically losing territory and brutally killing your own people and your own mistress...etc, why should you be such afraid by warning everyone before leaving the country? or are possibly there some of your dogs you fed for a long time become frightening yourself now? This is your Kama. It is time for you to become a compatriot now. You should think about this, right?

What will happen will happen no matter how hard to try to prevent it from happening. On the other hand, remember, Mr. Strongman, that justice will eventually prevail. You have sowed a whirlwind as seed, so you must be prepared to reap a whirlwind as a result. You and your relatives, both far and near, will be completely doomed to a very bitter failure in the end and your doomsday becomes imminent now. Be ready to enjoy it with your associates.

Nothing to describe what Ah HUN Sen said, but the world history will record the most impressive event between two neighboring countries have thrown away their gangsters within two consecutive months.
God bless us.
