One earns 'further' [military] promotions and stars for each defeat

Translated from French by Luc Sâr
Funny … and historical story
“One earns 'further' [military] promotions and stars for each defeat”
By N. Sihanouk

Beijing, March 25, 2007

In France, Generals Juin, de Lattre de Tassigny, Leclerc de Hautecloque (at the end of World War II) became Marshalls of France, because, at the head of theirs terrific officers and troops, they won major victories for the total liberation of their Homeland.

In Cambodia, the March 18, 1970 Putschists, the Lonnolians only knew infamous defeats.

Within a few months of their existence, their anti-Sihanouk regime lost 5 (five) entire provinces, this does not include numerous places in other Khmer provinces.

In 1973, 2/3 of Kampuchea was liberated by the FUNC-GRUNC-FAPLNC.

Let’s not even talk about April 1975! All these major deadly defeats for their “Republic” “justified” (sic!) – Oh, what a new height in mockery! – their “triumphant” promotions – advancement of military ranks.

Thus General Lon Nol became Marshall. Everybody still (in 2007) call him “Marshall-President Lon Nol.” The [army] captains during the SRN became “Generals”. Bravo!!!

(Signed) Norodom Sihanouk

-----
KI-Media: To set the record straight, it should be noted that under Cambodia’s Second Kingdom, a few former Khmer-Vietminh were honored with the title of Samdech. This was also the case for a former school dropout who used to reside in Wat Neakavon. These do not include the numerous “oknha” titles granted to anyone who can put up the $100,000 fee “donated” to the state coffer.

Sihanouk does this again,why?
Election is near either in April and July 2008.

He fishes out the loyalists of Republic for the Communist party snacks.

Learned from Son Sann conspiracy, all Republican idealists wer lured and then sold out in 1991 before he declared Sihanoukist for life in.It tuyrned out all his political moves were planned since.

Sihanouk is doing this for Hun Sen permanent victory.
Watch out and stay cool all the Republic loyalists.

My dear king,

If you keep lying, people will stop believing you.

You should have said that within a few months after the famous 18th of March, the Vietcongs that you allowed to stay within the Cambodian territory refused to go home and as a result, Camdodia has lost 5 provinces.

And in 1972 - 1973, you should have said that 2/3 of Kampuchea was invaded by our comrades in arms, the Vietcongs.

Say whatever you like, but there are people who are still alive and they can always correct your fanciful stories.

DO YOU THINK TO SERVE YUONS AND BECOME YUON'S SLAVES IS GOING TO PARADISE?????????????

FAKE STABILITY OF HUN SEN IS TO BE SLAVE OF YUON FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.

THESE ARE THE HUGE DIFFERENTS:

LON NOL PROMOTE TO MARSHALL BECAUSE HE DEFENNDED KHMER TERRITORY AND PROTECT KHMER PEOPLE FROM YUONS.

SIHANOUK RAN AWAY FROM FIGHTING WITH THE INVADER YUONS TO FRANCE, MOSCOV, BEIJING AND THE COUNTRY TO YUONS.

WHY SIHANOUK DID NOT ASK HIMSELF ABOUT 2 Prime-Minister he created...why he did not impress in Many Generals of 4 stars in sky
Many Excellencies, MMANYT SAMDACHS most from his royal familes???
Why he did not ask about the Former Taxi Driver became Minister in Cambodia??
Why did not he laugh about a former Play boy/huligan etc.. became a Deputy PM, MP or many other high-Ranking official in his
present 2nd Kingdom...Is this logic???
Why is the former Dancer could become Minister??
Why is one of the whorepublimay be aware ca make one poli Party fallen down??
...Many other questions for Him should be raised but now just keep them for nrar Future....
