PHNOM PENH, Aug. 25 (Xinhua) -- Cambodian Prince Norodom Ranariddh is expected to resign as head of his self-named party and quit politics, fellow royal Prince Sisowath Thomico said, suggesting that the move could be part of a plan for his return from exile, local newspaper reported Monday.
"I heard of his intentions two weeks ago," Sisowath Thomico was quoted by the Phnom Penh Post as saying.
He added that he did not know if the resignation would be permanent or temporary.
Former king Norodom Sihanouk had often requested that Ranariddh give up politics and focus on improving the nation, Sisowath Thomico said.
Ranariddh, who left Cambodia last year under a cloud of legal problems, is living in Malaysia.

A very poor PhD Ranariddh... First he was forced to shared power with Hun Sen. Then was asked to evict his party members/founders. Later was convicted in treason and pardoned. Later ran a small weak junoir coallition government party as NA speaker with changes of his Party SGs. Since 2006 he is arranged to self-exiled party leader with adultary charges. Now is forced to resign from the polytical party he formed to get permission to enter cambodia second time.
What else is left for him? Of cause not dignity as human even though he is prince by birth, and former Prime Minister of Cambodia.
If I were Prince Ranariddh I'd opted to go to prison for thing I did not commit, for prestige as former Prime minister and dignity as Prince of Cambodia.
Wake up my Prince before it's too late to remedy.
