Prince Thomico's earth-shaking discovery: "If it is not [pro-monarchy], then it can be pro-republican.”

Thomico: Someone is conducting an opinion poll on the removal of the monarchy

Translated from Khmer by Socheata

On 14 May, Prince Sisowath Thomico criticized a person, whom the prince believe to be a SRP supporter, conducting an opinion poll on which regime should be preserved: the monarchy or the republic.

After returning from France on 12 May, Prince Thomico said: “I was surprised when I arrived in France, I saw a SRP supporter conducting an opinion poll from overseas asking which regime to preserve: the monarchy or the republic.” Prince Thomico added that this opinion poll was (also) conducted by email and the email was forwarded to a large number of people.

When asked about who was the email sender, Prince Thomico could not tell which role this person plays within the SRP. He only said that he knew that the person used to support the SRP. However, the prince is not sure if this person still supports the SRP or not anymore, because a number of people have left the party.

Nevertheless, Thomico considers that the SRP is a party that does not have a royalist tendency, and that it leaning towards a republican regime. The prince said: “I am not sure if the SRP is royalist or not. If it is not, then it can be pro-republican.”

Prince Thomico is known to be close to Hero-King Norodom Sihanouk.

However, Eng Chhay Eang, SRP Secretary-general, rejected this accusation, saying that his party is not involved in any email opinion poll. He said that the party bylaw and internal rules stipulate that the party abides by the constitutional monarchy. Eng Chhay Eang also criticized that he does not know where the prince got his email from, and that the prince is always changing his minds, making it difficult to understand him sometimes. Eng Chhay Eang said that he does not pay attention to the prince’s words because whatever the prince said, it was not clear.

The email shown by Prince Thomico requested the recipient to vote at the following website:


which is owned by Sourn Serey Ratha, President of the CACJE mission.

"To be or Not to be" , this is the question. But for the poll's purpose, anyone prefers saying "pro royalist" . In French word, we say "c'est du quiproquo".

Socheata;
Instead of "the prince is not sure if this person still supports the SRP or not anymore".

Shall be "The prince is not sure if this person still supports the SRP or not".

Republic?

One shall look back during th Lon Nol era when Cambodia became a republic, and what was floowed that?

He said that the party bylaw and internal rules stipulate that the party abides by the constitutional monarchy.

Do you mean that at this very moment SRP wouldby law and internal rules stilpulate that the party abides by the constitutional monarchy, as SRP is yet in the sterring wheel of the country.

Be fair to the people of Cambodia, conduct a referandum if your party {SRP] would want to turn Cambodia upside down again

No worry about the poll. If the monarchy is good, people will support it; but if so fa the monarchy had cheapened itself, no one can help. I have seen that the monarchy families have not been behaving appropriately. They have not been living up to the respectable standrad, as the other monarchy families around the world. I myself used to have a lot respect for them during the 50 and 60's, but it has faded away after the 70's.

Superpower mood could benifit to Cambodian soveregnity, and will be an effective tools to fight against the agressive enemies to the future. Though the regime which so ever is not yet a critical role to play in this paticullar circomstences. Stop to point out the fingers to one another dear Brothers & Sisters, we need to look forward furthermore.

Nobody's gonna kill your King for the throne. Why one wastes time to sit idle in the throne while there are plenty of Auns-Auns outside. The throne itself will collapse sooner or later.

In this century, all member of royal families need to learn how to behavious themselve to be a role model of citizen before they can ask for a respect from the general public.
-They must study hard.
-Working hard in their living condition.
-They have to contribute to the wellfare of the national economy, wellfare the society by making contribution to the charity from their hard earn income ( not from national budget like Sihanouk ).
If not, they cannot get any respect from any one at all.

All khmer royal family are the same. They are retarded because they conceived from the same gene, i.e. brother and sister, father and daughter, uncle and niece etc... Incest is the practice of the khmer king starting from ta trasak pha em. Sihanouk, thomico and all are decendent of ta tra sak pha em. That how you see they are all have less than half brain.
