Prime minister Hun Sen once again scolded Kol Pheng, the minister of education, youth and sports (MoEYS) because he agreed to the swapping of the land where the Ponhea Hok school now stands. During a diploma distribution to students ceremony on Tuesday, Hun Sen said that he issued a communiqué banning the sale or the swapping of schools, hospitals, and state properties, but Kol Pheng still sign an agreement letter for the swapping (of a school) still. Hun Sen added that he doesn’t care if someone is a Funcinpec or a CPP minister, he considers them all to be his government’s ministers, and if these ministers commit errors, they must be scolded. Hun Sen added that when he saw Kol Pheng’s letter asking for the land swapping, he immediately burnt it down because he already issued a ban, how can this request letter be sent to him still? Hun Sen complained that it is very difficult to be a prime minister, because if you do not agree with others, they hate you, and if you are agreeable with others, they love you, but to him, he doesn’t care about anything, except for the interest of the people and the nation, regardless of whether people love or hate him.

Hey, stop bashing Vietnam's education. It is a lot better than Westerners'. They are competence and they know what they are doing, and their economic growth is only second to China. Furthermore, I am optimistic that Vietnam will leave both India and China in the dust within the near future.

with these words, our dear leader Hun Sen is starting to sound like a true leader now.

Stupid Hun Sen and his ministers and mistresses. Election time is coming soon and this guy acts in a good way. Wait until after election, Ah Kwak will do the same thing as Ah Kwak always do.

Cambodian people are not stupid like Ah Hun Sen and his followers. We're smarter than these stupid people who work for Hanoi interest.

Let's get rid of them in 2008 election.
