Hun Sen has plans to promote four more Interior Ministry [IM] officials to the rank of full general with four golden stars either this month or next month. This four-golden-star promotion to the four other IM officials from the quota of the Cambodian People's Party [CPP] will benefit officials close to him with the exception that one of them is challenging four-golden-star General Hok Langdi, director general of the National Police Department [NPD].
An IM official told Sralanh Khmer yesterday that Hun Sen has already made preparations to promote four lieutenant generals who are NPD vice-directors general. They are Gen Dul Koeun, Gen Net Savoeun, Gen Sok Phal, and Gen Yu Sinlong.
The source further said that the soon to be promoted four-golden-star generals will be given command of four general departments that the IM has planned to create since the beginning of 1997: The finance general department, the royal constabulary general department, the border police general department, and the ways and means general department.
It is further learned from the source that all the generals to be promoted are Hun Sen's supporters. This promotion takes place at the time when Hun Sen is facing off Chea Sim, president of the CPP. However, among these four, Gen Dul Koeun is known to be having some problem with Gen Hok Langdi.
NPD Vice-Director General Dul Koeun in charge of finances had asked Hun Sen to set up the finance general department to handle the ministry's financial disbursement without having to go through Hok Langdi. And Hun Sen has now approved the request by ordering the establishment of four departments in place of the only one under operation at present.
The IM police officer further said that Hun Sen will appoint an official of the finance department from Dul Koeun's camp to be NPD vice-director general replacing Sau Rani from the quota of the FUNCINPEC [National United Front for an Independent, Neutral, Peaceful, and Cooperative Cambodia] Party who was dismissed after the 50 percent plus 1 formula came into force. The new appointee is a man from the CPP quota.
Net Savoeun is a son-in-law of Hun Neng, governor of Kampong Cham province; Sok Phal is a general close to Hok Langdi and loyal to Prime Minister Hun Sen; and Yu Sinlong, too, is very loyal to Hun Sen.
Last month, Hun Sen suspended an Army general who was commander of Chea Sim's bodyguards on charges of leading his troops to protect Chea Sim's estate involved in a land dispute with Oknha [titled tycoon] Tri Heng, who is known to be familiar with PM Hun Sen.
This promotion to the rank of four-golden-star general given to IM officials loyal to him shows that Hun Sen is firming up his grip on the IM in a bid to seized superiority over Chea Sim's forces made up only of powerless Deputy PM Sar Kheng, the minister of interior.
The source said that Hun Sen might mention the good performance of the four generals whom he planned to give four golden stars during the founding anniversary of the IM at the Chaktomuk Conference Hall today.

With all the stars in Cambodia, the country should not need electricity. There should be sufficient light from all the stars to light the whole country.
yep,i couldn't agree more. But they sure look fantastic though to attract the beer girls...
The article, which this comment is written in response, indicated that a political move has been implemented by Mr. Hun Sen to undercut and isolated Mr. Chea Sim's power base. Mr Hun Sen does this by promoting people who are loyal to him into key position within the Interior Ministry. The logic behind Mr. Hun Sen's move is purely Machevillian and the result of a long contemplation.
Although contemplated, this is an opportunist's move by Mr. Hun Sen. Back in the 1980s, the Vietnamese tolerated and did not dare to heavily deal with Mr. Chea Sim. They feared that Mr. Chea Sim, whose has his own followers inside Cambodia, would rebel against their occupation. While many of his colleague who lack a power base in Cambodia at that time was being sent to reeducational camps in Vietnam for infraction, Mr. Chea Sim was left alone...
Also, back then, Mr. Hun Sen had a notion to completely control the CPP, but did not have the type of the patronage political network he has built today, and thus was forced to sit idle by in regard to the issue of Mr. Chea Sim. Mr. Chea Sim was a road block within the path of Mr. Hun Sen's march to complete power, and thus a thorn in Mr. Hun Sen's side.
But, beyond the move to undercut Mr. Chea Sim's power base, the current action by Mr. Hun Sen reveals a fundamental insecurity he is generating within his own mind. Mr. Hun Sen perceived himself in danger and he is seeing enemies everywhere. Where, then, is this sense of insecurity within Mr. Hun Sen came from?
Any number of answers can be applied, but for this note, we turn back to the fundamental difference between Mr. Chea Sim and Mr. Hun Sen rise to power as a form of explanation. Both Mr. Hun Sen and Mr. Chea Sim came to power on the back of the Vietnamese military. Both,however, drew from a different source to maintain his position. While Mr. Hun Sen draw extensively from the Vietnamese, Mr. Chea Sim relied on Khmers within his power base for his position. Basically, this fundamental difference can be used to explain Mr. Hun Sen Sen's current sense of insecurity and his need to dominate the CPP and Cambodia.
While the world was polorized, Mr. Hun Sen's close relationship with Vietnam was an asset to him and his people. However, as the politics of the region shifted and more repproachment took place between former enemies, Mr. Hun Sen is running into problems, especially when his former patron increasingly calling for compromises.
In this kind of a political arena, Mr. Hun Sen's legitimcy as a ruler of Cambodia is increasingly questioned both within his party and without. As questions are being raised, and given Mr. Hun Sen aversion to questions, he became increasly grumpy and often lashed out. After all, it is not easy to be labeled as a person with "Khmer Body and Vietnamese mind..." Equally, it is not easy to find oneself in the land one calls home, but those one lives with, do not see one as a native. It is understandable where Mr. Hun Sen sense of insecurity come from.
Mr. Chea Sim on the other hand, is completely at home among his people...Khmer.
In the end...it is without a doubt that Mr. Hun Sen will come out a winner in this latest move, but in doing so, he will irrevocally damage the CPP, and set it on a course to demise. Also, in the end, he may triumph over Mr. Chea Sim, but if security is what he is seeking for himself, no amount of domination will gain him that.
As we have indicated earlier, the insecurity Mr. Hun Sen percieved around him does not exist outside of Mr. Hun Sen mind. Mr. Chea Sim is old and more than ever his people and Khmer in general are too busy and more interest in surviving and enjoy the peace dividend.
In the final analysis, the current move to undercut Mr. Chea Sim by Mr. Hun Sen is not bold, brave or for his security reasons. If anything, it is a move to perpetuate the Hun Senism dogma that emerged after the abandonment of communism and the apparatus associate with that theory.
Great news! and I hope PM don't
forget to double their salary as
well, I mean to help them cope
with temptation. The last thing we
need is corrupted generals.

Great observation, but more desire Hun Sen has created in mind, more insecure is happening in his life and family...
Let See!
Why even make a fucken big deal about the promotion of the four star generals? I remembered how this CPP clan promoted the intermarriage among themselves just to maintain the power! Only stupid Cambodian people didn't know that all the CPP leaders are related through marriage of their sons and daughters...So what is new for me to know? There is nothing new here!
AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave know that he can't last forever as dictator and he is trying to buy time and it is time that he doesn't have!
AH HUN SEN had many fears in the past and one of them is his own shadow!!!ahahhahhahahah!
I say enough of AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave and no Vietcong master can save him now!!!

for the CPP. Year after year, they
are getting more and more people's
approval. The only party that is
dying at the moment is the
Royalist. Therefore, I hope
you are smart enough not to hold
your breath. Muah hahahaha ... !!!

Notice that Thia Bunrong, a Khmer Tycoon, prefered married his daughter to a Thai General! Why? because he is a clever man> He knows very well who those Khmer PHKAY are!
Hey, if anyone don't want the
damned stars, I'll take it. I can
used as many I can get.
If I were a Thaicong army general and I like to having fun and good time with AH THIA BUNRONG's daughter too!ahhahahha. This motherfucker ain't Khmer because even his name says it all and he is just a fucken Thaicong businessman and he disguised as Khmer otherwise he wouldn’t let his daughter marry with a Thaicong general!!
You will be seeing more of the blue uniform Thaicong army led by AH THIA BUNRONG's son- in-law in the near future to harass and to kill more Khmer people along Cambodian border!!!!
From now on, AH Thaicong THIA BUNRONG better watch his back!!!!!I have so much hatred for all Thaicong army generals and the pain they had inflicted on Khmer people!!!!
If I were a Gietcong army general and I like to having fun and good time with AH HOK LUNDY's daughter too!ahhahahha. This motherfucker ain't Khmer because even his name says it all and he is just a fucken Gietcong youn and he disguised as Khmer otherwise he wouldn’t let his daughter marry with a Gietcong general!!
You will be seeing more of the blue uniform Gietcong army led by AH HUN SEN's son- in-law in the near future to harass and to kill more Khmer people along Cambodian border!!!!
From now on, AH Gietcong HOK LUNDY better watch his back!!!!!I have so much hatred for all Gietcong army generals and the pain they had inflicted on Khmer people!!!!
