Sihanouk offers $5,000 to Cambodia’s richest couple

The following is an approximate translation from Khmer of the main portion of the letter:

Samdach Hun Sen
Prime Minister of the Royal Government of Cambodia

To His Majesty King Norodom Sihanouk
And Queen Norodom Monineath Sihanouk

Revered King-Father and Queen-Mother

First of all, we would like to deeply thank beloved King-Father and Queen-Mother for allowing us to pay a visit with you, and for giving us an audience as special family members of King-Father and Queen-Mother, and also for the $5,000 gift from your personal funds for both of us to use in any way we see fit. We will use this amount to purchase lasting souvenir items, and consider them as unforgettable inheritance given by parents to their children.



Phnom Penh, 12 May 2007

Signed: Bun Rany Hun Sen and Hun Sen

Sihanouk is trying to pay bribe to Hun Sen so that this latter will not replace the King by Sisowath' branch. He knew very well that Hun Sen is the richessmen in the country but he still give them monies to buy them. Indeed even if Sihanouk has only given to Hun Sen US$ 100.00 Hun Sen is still very happy. This monies is nothing but means a lot for him because this US$ 100 from Sihanouk represented his rightfull leadership. Areak Prey

Hey 1:22AM,

That's so idiosyncracy i ever heard --a very bad comparison. You're missing the point, brother. A person or a group of responsible citizens with moral principles does not have the same track of mind set like yours. Whether you're altruistic or egotistical, you NEED TO REALIZE THAT "NO MAN IS AN ISLAND!"

When the oil is flowing in Cambodia, and people are dying by your door steps. What say you of the Chinese influences when Khmer people no place to live, food to eat, and KR atrocities began anew?

Fruity-man 1:36AM,

A lack of knowledge is a dangerous thing. Have you any knowledge what happen to our country, Cambodia in the last 3 decades?

It's a chain reaction because we have an incompetent officials and the royal family. WE HAVE IDIOTS IN POLITICS!!

Go to Youtube.com; and type in Hun Sen. And you'll understand more who destroyed the livlihood of Khmer people after the Khmer Rouge regime.

Do you know why Cambodia weather changes so much. Well. The Rain Forest was 95% cut down to the ground that Hun Sen gave permission to foreign companies logged it under his military protection.

Do you why we have so much problem with erosion? Deforestation!

Do you why the weather are so hot, above normal than 20-30yr ago? Deforestation!

We (Khmers) are consuming foods that are in toxins; water are polluted with the industrial waste & Khmer landscape are becoming like Iraq! Do you why?

Election 2008! We need a change of direction for the greater cause...

1:51, the Chinese are there for
the oil to keep their people warm
winter time. It can be very nippy
in China, in case you don't know.
They are not there to fight civil
war for anyone, okay.

We, Cambodians, are very ashamed to have an uneducated prime minister like ah Hun Sen

Reporters have rights to ask any question to high-rank officials, either prime minister, in the world.

If ah Hun Sen (Kbal youn khloun Sat') told RFA reporters are insolent, so ah Hun Sen is very ILL-BRED and uneducated barbarian person

Ah Kather bork ahJen, Ah kwak bork Ahmeric.

Ah Jen give guns for the people to kill each and Ah jen come to replace it. Khmer genocide is like that of Sudan.

In Cambodia Ah Jen is the most corrupted and Ah Jen don't want Khmer to have education to compete their intellect. Khmer Rouge gave a lesson but Ah Jen keep doing the same, well if 1 billions is backing up soon Khmer is all gone.

12:13, we don't care about Somdach
Euv stole money from China, we only
care if he did it here.

The Chineese will need more oil until this palnet is drying up and probably not even enough. There are 1.5 billions mouthS to feed in China! that is a lot!. What the Chineese government should do is turning those people loose and let them go wherever they want to go and be in what whatever country might want them. Then may be those people could turn out to be a more productive citizens and be able to feed them selfves better than live in sick country like China. It's the bastard communist country! there is no freedom to do thing or be better. are you kidding? EVERYBODY IS SHARING AN EQUAL STATUS OF BEING POOR AND BE IN THE STATE OF MISERY FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES AND BEYOND. GET REAL PEOPLE! AND GET A REAL GRIP OF CHINA! GAS PRICE IS CHOKING EVERYBODY AROUND THE WORLD, BECAUSE OF CHINA. CAN YOU SEE?

AND FOR OUR KING TO ADORE AND ADMIRE AND CHINA IS JUST WRONG. he doesn't see everything and there is no way that he gets to see and fell what an ordianry chineese are living. The are in hell! and what does that tell the world? Our King is an ignorant man. $5000 may do some good for a few more years for his son, but unless he is doing something drasticly different in term of changing China to a better understanding government, he, his son and his family will go down. Let's us hope that the Communist Chinese Government will be able to save him again, because there is no one and we mean no one else will be able to save him, except may be North Korea. Good luck King! you need it bad.
