Translated from French by Luc SârDispossessed people against the Super-Capitalists
By N. Sihanouk
By N. Sihanouk
1- Super-capitalists, companies, and (Khmer and foreign) Mafias from “friendly” countries, for sometime now, had led “activities” which resulted in “land grabbings” to the detriment and great hopelessness of our Small People [Ordinary Citizens], and they also brought up the dramatic and sad results of the forced eviction of small owners who were dispossessed of the lands.
Recently, a European Mafia had “proposed” to “invest” in a very precious and historical location where “my” state villa from the Sangkum Reastr Niyum [era] (in Sihanoukville) once stood, [this villa] successively “housed” H.M. King Savang of Laos, President Tito of Yugoslavia, President Sukarno of Indonesia, and other illustrious Heads of State and foreign Government leaders.
To “prevent” the “investment” of this European Mafia cited above, I asked Samdech Kong Som Ol to build with my money, at the location of the former “state villa”, in Sihanoukville, a health center for the People.
2- Very worrisome: An increasing number of humble citizens from the provinces (Koh Kong etc…) and cities (including those within Phnom Penh) are dispossessed of their humble lands (including their homes). These humble and dispossessed citizens dare more and more “demonstrate” against these dispossession acts which they are the victims of. I hope that our respected and beloved Great Leader will have pity on these dispossessed [people] and will render justice for them.

We welcome King's Proposal to keep those lands as Symbole/Khmer Heritage... BUT NOT SCHOOL or Hospital etc.. Just the same as it was previously..We still have many piece of Lands for Schools and Hospitals.. If King Proposed the School or Hospitals these land will be converted to Shools or Hospitals in other Places... and King's Lands will be Recreations place Hotes.. KaraOK Brothels etc...They Investers and Authority are so clever with this type of Investments... So that please keep those land for the same Symbols as it was in the past..
We are affraid if those will be converted to Hotels.. Retaurant becuase of its high Market Pirice
This is kind of letter i like to read from his majesty the king father, not any more about politic, i hope this message will be a warn to these who involve in the land grabbing and to wake the great leader up abit.
After having very disappointment from Hun Sen, the former King has his eyes opened and have seen the real injustice in his mini-kingdom. If Hun Sen has supported his only a small fraction for sueing Sralanh Khmer, the former king would have his eyes closed on mafia stealing small people lands.
I cannot trust you anymore !!! You have so much of dirty trick. You have led us to join the marqui with the Khmer Rouge in 1970 and now you said you haven't done that it has made me so doubt about you !!! You should be strong and brave to apology for all your mistakes and denounce the heavenly named given to you by your stupid son Rannarith. This virak Ksat is not suite to you at all. Even Hun Jin Tao who have let Chinese citizen of 1.3 billions people to a big prosperity, he still cannot accept this title either !!!!
This is the kindo f works that aretired royals should do and open their mouth and say. Be a guardian of the people. Go back to Cambodia and stay near the people. they will love you to death.
But soon you will hear Hun Khvang, your godson, hit back for yoyr comment. he might swear all sorts of vulgarities at you. I hope you will not cow by lifting hik up to the sky again. You know that was one of the reason why the CPP got the landslide, because they used your constant sarastic praise to fool the ignorant people. It worked.
KingTa, I have no hope you are a conistent old man, having said above. Such a chicken old king. Better of dead. You have tourtured Khmer too much and too long.
It sound very kind that your Majesty thinks about the cambodian his land in Sihanoukville but if you change your mind to be a Virak Ksat like your puppets name your please tell the cambodian people inside and outside Cambodia the true and answer yes or no with these questions:
Were there any Vietnamese communist soldiers along Kampuchea'border in the 60th?
Did you help the Vietcong the medecine?
Did you go to Hanoi to pay respect to Ho Chi Minh when he's death?
Did you get your wife Monic from the place of the orphants calls Providence ?
I am against the above man who insults our King.Please change your attitude and open your mind and your eyes.Your comments are disgusting!

former King Sihanouk is serving as a spoke person for his son, King Sihamoni.
Yes 6:51PM, Your sihanouk is a national disgrace. The man ,you admire at one time, invite foreign power to slaughter his own people.His legacy has caused a very deep wound in our hearts and unforgiveable.
Dear friends, it is enough blamings to what already happened in the past. I'm so happy to see our former leader expressed national concerns instead of the urgly Lon Nol's events or greatness of SRN era. We had enough suffering, go on with the new life. Stop questioning how bad other people did, question how good have you done for your country. Even as good as Gandy of India got assasinated by the division of India and Parkistan. Please name me one perfect politician that you knew!
