Sihanouk Warns Compatriots Not To Recognize Regime

Peking, March 24 (AFP)—The text of a message from Prince Norodom Sihanouk, chief of state of Cambodia, addressed to his "diplomatic compatriots and other important officials civil and military" was released to the press here Tuesday.

This is the text of Prince Sihanouk's message:

The traitorous government and the unconstitutional and illegal regime of Lon Nol has called upon you to declare yourselves for or against my dismissal. Many of you are free to declare yourselves either in respecting the law of your conscience or taking into account certain questions of (?family) or material order. But I permit myself to warn you solemnly that on the morning after the ineluctable victory of the progressive anti-imperialist forces—that is to say, of the people—over the American imperialists and their reactionary lackeys under the Lon Nol-Sirik Matak-Cheng Heng clique, the government of the Khmer people, which will be installed in Phnom Penh under aegis of the United National Front of Kampuchea and the National Liberation Army Of Kampuchea, will not fail to judge and very severely sanction the alignment of the principle (?principal) guilty parties of the reactionary clique of criminal enemies of the people and lackeys of the American imperialists and their collaborators.

This is the most damning evident of Sihanouk's grudges and wrath of anger toward those involved in 03/1970 coup and the innocent people who did not run to the jungles to join him and the Khmer Rouge. His wish to "judge and severely sanction" was carried out the very first day when the Khmer Rouge took over the country. PEOPLE, ALL THESE ARE SIHANOUK'S OWN WORDS.

All true Khmer compatriots, ladies and gentlemen,

Cambodia has cancers that were embedded into her by China+YUONS+Vietminh-CPP-Hun Sen+all royal crooks through traitor Sihanouk's flesh and blood, also through his YUON wife Monique and Sihanouk’s clique.

To have true and lasting peace for Cambodia these cancers have to be removed once and for all, either by the law of ECCC-KRT or by any means, as long as the majority of true Khmers agree with it.

If these cancers remain inside Cambodia, without proper treatment, YUONS will continue to swallow us bit by bit every day and China will gobble the whole region without mercy toward Cambodian land and all Khmer people. They will achieve this with the continued assistance of NORODOM SIHANOUK and HUN SEN.
