Translated from Khmer by Socheata

An official from the NRP said that King Sihamoni authorized NRP delegates, led by Prince Norodom Chakrapong, the NRP vice-president, to meet him as requested. Muth Chantha, NRP spokesman, said the 19-preson delegation will meet with the king on Sunday 12 May, in order to hand over to him a petition bearing the thumbprints of about 200,000 people requesting the king to pardon Prince Ranariddh. The prince was sentenced to 18-month jail for breach of trust in the sale of the Funcinpec party headquarters. Prince Ranariddh is currently in self-exiled overseas. In an interview with VOA on Friday evening, the prince claimed that his sentence is politically oriented. The prince added that he is not as bad as Ieng Sary, the Khmer Rouge leader whom Hun Sen requested the pardon for from King Sihanouk in 1998.

Alright, alright, let's get it
over with and move on. That is
the King must back up his family
at all cost. And Somdach Ranarith
needs to stop playing game. What
else is so difficult about the
case.

I guess he fits right in with Cambodian kingdom government. Fews government workers took bribes but not punished and still hold top government jobs.
Poor Cambodian poeples!!

Bribe is not really a crime unless

The King and I.

If I were the King, I would seek high level of legal counsel before I reach to the conclusion to pardon my half brother.
If I were to pardon my half brother without any logical reason like my father used to do, the world would see me as a dick head.
By the way, it is about time that I should find a person with a good heart to settle down.

During his crownation, the King has made it clear that he won't let himself to associate with all crooked people who beg him for their own wealth and their own luck. But this time he has a hard time to decide with his own brother !!!!!! What can he do ? Areak Prey

3:40, in this case, if you don't
pardonned your half brother, you
will look like the Dick Head also.
So what difference does it makes?
Your best action is to do what
everyone does. That is to pardonned
your half-brother, then kick his
ass in private and hope he will
never put you through the same shit
again.

Hey, where did I said that I want
to be king?

Anyway, The throne should go to
100% real Khmer only. I think
Sihamoni is tooo Frenchy. I don't
like his mentality. He don't bail
out Khmer people who trapped by
the flaw in our laws like that case
that I mentioned about the father
caught the rapist in the act of
raping his daughter, and the father
killed the rapist to protect his
daughter. The true Khmer's King
would never allowed that man (the
girl's father) to spend the day in
jail. Do you know what I mean? But
because Shihamoi is a fucking
French, we now have two people
who are hurting: The girl raped by
the rapist and being separated from
her beloved father who saved her,
and the father jailed for 18 years
just for saving his own daugther.
How much more evil can this be?

The king is a good model for the people. He is neutral, impartial but he is not a puppet of anybody. By creating the so- called "royalist parties" those princes are destroying the Monarchy.

You are racist, you hate the "Yuon". For me I hate corrupt officials and Vietnam's slaves. I think it's better for our sons to marry Vietnamese girls than the girls of those degusting CPP officials. At least they are clever and they are the Masters of the CPP.

Agreed, so long you are realistic
about your claims. That is there
are some corrupted officials, but
not everyone. Otherwise, you would
never see any new bussinesses in
Cambodia.

I wonder why the King keeps his head shaved. Was it that he likes to imitate Yul Bruner or Chow Yen Fat in the King and I?
Very shallow indeed.

He's ball headed, so it looks
better for him to shave his head.
Plus, it is also in fashion now
days.
