Oh good, Sam Rainsy will meet with
the trade officials. We will see
how many jobs he can bring in
to Cambodia, and he better not
try anything funny.

Good luck, your Excellency!

Now, we need to get the FUNCINPEC
to do some of that, and we will be
good by 2010.

KHMENG WAT KHNONG SROK, GOOD MORNING!

GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO EDUCATE MR. SACRAVA ABOUT CIVILITY AND MORALITY, MR. RAINSY! IF YOU WANT TO BRING THESE PEOPLE TO HELP CAMBODIA, YOU REALLY NEED TO SEND BACK TO SCHOOL BECAUSE YOUR SUPPORTERS ARE REALLY IGNORANTS AND UNEDUCATED PERSONS!

JUST A FRIENDLY ADVICE...

GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

Khmeng Wat knong Srok's comment @12:38AM above deserves a Nobel price that consists of a 6-foot long broom stick starting from his bottom up all the way thru to his mouth just like one does to make a so-called FISH-on-a-stick, the fresh water FISH which those illegal Viets steal off of Khmer Tonle Sap lake. It's only fair!

No one who owned their land
officially has lost their land.
Only criminals who tried to grab
other people land are being
victimized.

Lok Sam Rainsey needs help from all us. A true fund raising or campaigne to help raise money for his fine political purpose must be realized. One of us must start it somewhere and do it seriously. Khmers all over the world can and will change Cambodia!
