In a speech held in front of students, the prime minister, after addressing his wishes to King Sihamoni and to King-Father Norodom Sihanouk, underscored the advantages of the constitutional monarchy in Cambodia.
At a speech given during the handing of diplomas to students on Tuesday 30 October, Prime minister Hun Sen underscored the need of the monarchy for Cambodia, and he reminded his listeners about the 1970 coup d’état led by Lon Nol which abolished the monarchy. Hun Sen affirmed that the rebirth of the constitutional monarchy in 1993, was a pledge for a good management of the country because it avoids political crises between the head of state and the government.
“In Cambodia, the King remains above the political parties as a head of state. He is thus not involved in political conflicts. This point is very important. Article 9 of the Constitution stipulates that the king assumes the role of arbitrator to ensure the faithful execution of public powers,” Hun Sen explained.
To Hun Sen, in countries where the president comes from one political party, and the prime minister comes from a different party, these countries are not easy to govern. “In Poland, this (situation) is starting up. In France, Mitterand came from the Socialist Party and Chirac came from the rightwing party, the Rally for the Republic (RPR). And, when Jacques Chirac became president, Lionel Jospin, the Socialist Party leader became prime minister. I was not easy for them. And this situation was not good for their country.”

Hun Sen has no ground to testify his speech. Monarchy or non-monarchy can be strong depending on those top leaders are well aware of respecting the national laws.
But Hun Sen is smart to use Cambodian monarchy as his tool to gain power and legitimacy.
Example, if he really respects the national constitution and the monarchy, this graduation ceremony would be presided by the King, not by PM.

GO TO SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW How funny that hun is giving speeches at graduates. Ironic, when these graduate don't have jobs.
Hun Sen Ah Kvak pleur.........
Coup d’état On March 18, 1970, after a long and historic debate, the two bodies by unanimous vote withdrew their confidence in Prince Norodom Sihanouk and removed him from office. The members found evil of him, among other things, of having authoried North Vietnamese and Vietcong troops to illegally occupy Khmer territory and establish bases (sanctuaries) during the latter half of the 1960’s, an occupation in flagrant violation of Khmer neutrality as provided by the Geneva Accords of 1954.
You are next....if we found yuon in Cambodia and lost land as Sihanouk did.
To 9:32AM!
Regarding #1(King must united his people and all political parties)
The very reason why our King can't unite his people and all the political parties because he is a King who belong to political party!
The CPP put this King in power and so the CPP has all the power to kill, to steal, and to lie to Khmer people!
Number#2(the King must protect his Kingdom) The King doesn't need Nuke to protect his Kingdom! What the King needs is a good powerful friends and allies to deter any foreign aggression and find way to rearm his Kingdom!
Number#3(the King must protect his people) Again the reason why this King can't protect him people because he belong to a political party!
Please let not fool ourselves and the fact is King Xihamoni is not even a King and it doesn't matter what fake Khmer constitution enshrine about the Khmer King! Because if the Khmer King can't even performs the following three proposals and he is finished as Khmer King! He is just another fool who is pretending to sit on the throne quietly enjoy all the good and luxury of life while dirt poor Khmer people and the nation continue to suffer!
Remember! Hun Sen said that he has no right to be King but he has the right to create King! Since HUN SEN is the creator of Khmer King and all the power and respect must be given to HUN SEN alone and no one else! And that is why he demanded that he must stay in power until the day he dies because he is the real Khmer King!
So I say overthrow the creator to solve the problem!

Trinh Nguyen Separatist War (1600 to 1786)
During the Le Dynasty 1600's, Vietnam experienced internal chaos. The Vietnamese warlords struggled for power and sought full control of Vietnam. The Trinh clan controlled the northern part of Vietnam while the Nguyen has controlled the south. Consequently, the Trinh and Nguyen wars provided the Vietnamese with opportunity to infiltrate the northeast provinces of Kampuchea Krom in the provinces such as Do Nai, Morea and Toul Ta Mauk.
In 1620, the young Khmer monarch, king Chey Chetha II (1618-1628) had fallen into the similar Vietnam's trap as that of the king of Champa in 1307. The warlord Nguyen Hi Tong (1613-1635) presented one of his exotic daughters, Princess Ngoc Van, to King Chey Chetha II for some favors . Through the Princess' intervention in 1623, the Nguyen warlord sent his representatives to ask the Court of Udong permission for the Vietnamese to conduct trade in Morea (Baria) and Prei Nokor (Saigon ), and be given custom authorities over trading. Because of marriage to the Vietnamese wife, King Chey Chetha II had no strong reasons to refuse but granted the requests. Some historians agreed that these were the covert acts intended to rob the Khmers of their rights. Later, the Court of Hue, again, used the nice guy's trick by volunteering their men to assist the Khmer authority in carrying out the policing in the areas. Some documents in Khmer history have cited that at the start of the relationship, the Court of Hue only asked to use certain areas in Prei Nokor to train their militaries for wars against the Chinese and they would be returned to the Khmer authority in 5 years. But at the death of king Chey Chetha II in 1628, the areas of Prei Nokor, Morea, Do Nai, and Toul Ta Mauk were flooded with the Vietnamese warlord . Kampong Srakartrey (Bienhoa) in 1651; Prah Suakea or Morea (Baria) in 1651; Kampong Kou (Longan) in 1669; Tuol Ta Mauk in 1696; Kampong Krabey Prei Nokor (Saigon) in 1696.
In 18 th century, Mac Cuu a Chinese who received a permission from Ang Eum (1710-22) to con- trol the province of Peam (Hatien), Kramounsar (Rachgia) and Koh Tral ( Phu Quoc island ) in 1722. The provinces of Mesar (Mytho), Kampong Reussey (Bentre), Koh Gong (Gocong) and Peam Ba-rach ( Long Xuyen) were lost to Vietnam in 1732. Phsar Dek (Sadec), Long Ho (Vinhlong), Mot Chrouk (Chaudoc) in 1757, Raung Damrey (Tayninh) in 1770, Prek Reussey (Cantho) in 1758. The provinces of Preah Trapeang (Travinh), Khleang ( Soctrang), Pol Leav (Baclieu), and Teuk Khmao (Camau) were siezed in 1775 and until 18th century our motherland Kampuchea Krom was totally controlled by the Vietnamese 1840.
Colonization of Preah Trapeang
During the Tay Son uprising (1779-1796), the Srok of Preah Trapeang had given asylum to the fugitive Vietnamese Emperor Gia Long so that he could reconstitute forces against his own warlord Tay Son. King Ang Eng (1779-96) of the Khmer Empire had also provided a military support to this Vietnamese Emperor as a gesture of a good neighbor. However, after regained throne of Annam from the Tay Son, Gia Long arbitrarily turned the Srok Preah Trapeang into a Vietnamese colony.
During his dynasty (1802-19), king Gia Long started an irrigation project in the Province of Mot Chrouk (Chaudoc). Thousands of the Khmer Krom were forced to dig a canal named Chum Nik Prek Teng (Vinh Te), 53 kilometers long and 25 meters wide, from Bassac River to the Gulf of Siam. During this forced labor project from 1813-1820, many thousands of the Khmer Krom were killed. In one particular instance the Khmer workers were buried alive so that the Vietnamese soldiers could use their heads as stove stands to boil water for tea for their Vietnamese masters. The phrase "Be careful not to spill the masters'Tea" is still well reminded to there Children by all Khmer Krom parents or grandparents.
Before the Canal Project well done, Annamite soldiers held khmer laborers into Pillories, each fillory contained about 20-40 people (they said to prevent Khmer laborers run away from mobilization),at least from 2-5 thousand were locked in pillories located in the canal; the dam was opened, water filled the canal, all Khmer laborers were drowned, no one was survive. (Listen to the Te Ong Anussa´s song that means the Master´s Tea Memo).
To 1:05AM! Thank you!
This is not a myth!
So what? What is your point, 1:42?
1:05AM
they died in vain though.
KK is not a myth. they very very weak and caward.
In Cambodia there are six kk communities ran like hench, to lick Hun Sen's Toes already.
Why don't you just give up that shit you are doing now, and join Samdach Dek Cho Hun Sen like your fella in Cambodia?
Santhor,
To what you have experienced, it is bitter and painful for Cambodians who are being damned in their country and birth place....
Those top leaders might not be aware or acknowledge this b/c they are poisoned by power and money...
Sad Cambodia!
Hey, let get some facts strait: Ah Khmer-Yuon created problem for themselves, and they insist on making the problem worse and worse for the next 100 years. They refused to listen to anyone. And to making thing worse, they don't even know what will happened to them in the far future. Without education for the next 50 years (or couple generations), they will be way way behind and can't function without a hand out. Therefore, what do you expect from us?
Animal Viet troller pretending to be Khmer on KI-Media @4:28 AM here must be castrated then euthanized...
Oh yeah ... Go ahead ... Make my day!
