DID THOSE KILLED ON MARCH, 30 1997 DIE IN VAIN?
What a sham and a farce the investigation of this tragic event has become. Every year we call on the Cambodian Government to investigate. We’re asking the Hun Sen government to re-open a case which he never really opened.The FBI found out within weeks of the attack that it was planned and carried out by Hun Sen’s own private guards and covered up by Hun Sen’s top police enforcers. What a crime was committed that day. We shouldn’t be vague about culpability when we ask for a new investigation. So let’s be real.
Did those slaughtered on 3/30/97 die in vain? Even today Hun Sen is the supreme and ultimate puppeteer of all that happens in Cambodia. He decides who will be exiled and who will be allowed back in the country. He decides how far each opposition party can go in criticizing has government. He makes sure the NEC is loaded with yes men who will validate the results of the election. He decides who will be jailed and who will be released. He decides the fate of pro-democracy party commune leaders who speak out and try to organize. His forces bribe opposition part officials to join CPP. And as we saw on 3/30/97 he decides when opposition goes too far.
He is a master of intrigue. He has told the world for years that his government will bring the Khmer Rouge leaders before his court for trail. How is that trial going by the way? These KR leaders are dying right and left of old age while the corrupt judicial system in Phnom Penh makes a farce out of a situation so tragic it still rips the heart out of those who suffered at the hands of Pol Pot.
Cambodia hasn’t really changed. Everything looks shinier and tourists who fly from their own country to Bangkok or Hong Kong to Siem Reap and its five-star hotels and then back to their homes talk of how wonderful to see all the changes. They should travel about an hour from Siem Reap in any direction and see what has happened to the homeless who used to pack the streets of that great city.
Those gathered on 3/30/97 only asked for justice and political freedom. If they were alive today they would still be begging for basic human rights and the same freedom and opportunities that CPP officials enjoy.
In Cambodia everybody votes but nobody counts.

Oh, shut the fuck up, idiot(Ron Abney)! The blast must have causing you serious brain damages.
I think one day the truth will come out. Maybe after Hun Sen is out office. Someone will feel guilty and the truth will be known.
Yes, they died in vain; and they continue to do so until the country has a formidable opposition.

Yes, and Ah Xam Rainxy will be condemned for dragging children into politic. Just look at the kid in the picture. He can't be more than 13 years old. What does kids like that know about politic?
My beloved 5:41AM!
What do ya conscientiously know about Khmer poloSick?
5:26AM and 5:41AM you are like your master and Hero Hen Sen. What you should learn in life is that – never blame the victims, one day it’ll be your turn and don’t blame the culprits but yourself.
You are soulless and care about no ones, not even your own race. Luckily humanity is more superior in conscience than the people like you and your hero Hun Sen.
No, 6:06, I don't know what a Khmer poloSick is. Does a 13 years old kid know?
6:38, I did not blame 13 years old kids. What I blamed is Ah Xam Rainxy who drag them into politic and got their brain blown all over Phnom Penh. Get it?
6.38 when ah choi marai hun shit blasted your kids head off, then you 'd say yes, those people were right. you fucking blame the wrong person again as normal of you gringo brains., it was not sam rainsy , it was your fucking boss hun shit who killed the kids. gett it fucking idiots for your whole family
What the fuck are you talking about, Ah Jau Maseert (7:34)? Those little kids would not had died had Ah Xam Rainxy not drag them into to politic. Isn't that so?
To Vietcong troller 5:41AM, 7:23AM, 7:58AM...
Hey Vietcong slave mother fucker! Do you think AH HUN SEN Vietcong thugs give a fuck about young and old people, little children and little babies, or men and women? The fact that AH HUN SEN Vietcong thugs thrown those grenades indiscriminately into the crowd of people and it could have been your fucken family members or it could have been innocence bystanders and this is to show that AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave mother fucker never give a damn about any Cambodian people life!
So tell me mother fucker and how many homeless Cambodian children are on the mean street of Cambodia? The fucken problem is there are too many homeless Cambodian children are on the streets begging for foods and money just to survive! And who are you to tell that these homeless Cambodian children have no right to be on the streets? Fuck you mother fucker!
Fuck you and all your thugs and you will go to hell one day!
Father of Xam Rainxy - Xam Xary took 250 kg. of gold from Viet Cong to kill Prince Norodom Sihanouk. Now Xam
Rainxy take money from US to kill Khmer.
Damn, you got great potential, 8:40!
That is what it all boil down to.
What do you mean, "Hun Sen Vietcong thugs," moron (8:35)? There were still lot of stray Khmer Rouge mad dogs running lose in 1997. They tried to cause chaos in the country by shooting and blowing people to bits and pieces whenever they can to take revenge for their downfall.
In any cases, Ah Xam Raixy should not drag little kids into politic and got them blown up to bits and pieces. He knew the country wasn't stable then, and he knew something is going to happen, but he still using kids as his human shield. What is vicious evil from hell?
13 years age is old enough to know
what is right and wrong.
not like that of those,even though
too old,but know nothing other than killing and beatting their
own people.
Fuck the yuons, the world would be a better place without them, we know it, the world knows it, and so does their own mothers know it. Fucking rip-offs of China, they are the product of the Chinese shit.
I know this type!
It is Jonh Apachi, the plumber who lives in Los Angeles.
But it is of anything on this blog!
Yes those killed on March 30, 1997 and alot more after that, were not enought for UN and Signators of Paris agreement to accept that kinlling, slavering, and oppressing is still move in slow motion in Cambodia!
they need another MILLIONS to cry for justice for the dead!
Be dead Cambodian so they may pay some hubdred millions for your justice!
hell with Khmer Rouge Court if there is no real freedom and democracy in the country!
The Western world doesn't give a damn about Cambodia! The grenade attack is no where near the 1.7 millions that the KR killed. Why should they care!
