DEAR COMPATRIOTS,
WE SHOULD ASK OURSELVES WHY HUN XEN IS EXTREMELY ANXIOUS TO NEGOCIATE WITH SAMAK AND DOESN’T WANT TO TAKE THE PREAH VIHEAR ISSUE TO the UN, the International Court of Justice or the Association of South East Asian Nations’ (ASEAN) Forum.
I AM TELLING YOU WHY!
THE REASON IS HUN XEN WANTS TO HIDE THE SECRET AGREEMENT THAT HE SIGNED WITH SAMAK AND GAVE SIAM THE 4.6 SQUARE KILOMETRES OF THE SURROUNDING AREAS OF KHMER TEMPLE PREAH VIHEAR IN EXCHANGE TO GET THEIR SUPPORT TO LIST OUR TEMPLE AS World Heritage site
and further HIS OWN BUSINESS INTERESTS WITH THAI POLITICIANS (SAMAK, TAKSIN...) TO EXPLOIT THE TEMPLE.
HIS FIRST BETRAYAL WAS ON 11th NOVEMBER 2006
IN SIGNING THE SUPPLEMENTAL TREATY, HE HAD PAID TRIBUTE TO HIS YUON MASTER, OUR LAND, OUR ISLE KOH TRAL, OUR SEA!
THIS MAN IS A TRAITOR TO OUR NATION!
REMOVE HIM
Hun Xen knows wee that samak won't widraw his soldiers from Preah Vihear temple surrounding areas because he had already given it to Siam.
Hun xen has tempted to delay the negociation until th election finishes where he is sure he will win.
After the election, he will disclose the secret agreement, and dear compatriots, it will be late for us to protest anymore. HunXen will have 5 more years of power to crush us against as he did to our protesters during the supplemental treaty in 2006.
Get out of our THAI TERRITORY!
Long Live Hun Sen!
Someone just made the Hun's clan's pissed by providing a delicate and sentisive agreement in which he signed.
That explained everything!
Khmer should repel this invasion from the beginning.Now it's a little too late .The enemy is on our soil and solidly entrench .Hun sen is just a piece of shit, a coward but love to stay in power .Now it's even costlier to fight.Don't expect the Thai to withdraw any time soon ,it will never happen.
If we were to invade Thailand,the Thai will declare war on us in second.Shame on you khmer's govt.
Shut the fuck up, Ah Karmen, what do you got for proof that the area belong to you aside from the dumb Franco treaty without a single French soldier around town.
Jealousy....Jealousy...fucking Siameses. They must be felt ashame to the whole world at Ville de Quebec! Their incursion into Cambodia will tell the whole world of their true color of the ruthless Siameses.
Honte sur vous thaï. Le monde entier vous observe !
