Hun Sen, are you still blind by taking this soft step?

Look at the situation, they're still aggressively violating the Cambodian sovereignty.

Hun Sen is blind in one eye so he cannot see in every angle. Also he doesn't care about our borders, he only cares about his power - just sacked Ke Kimyan because he feels paranoid and insecure.

The one-eyed Hun Sen only can see one side, that is money and power for himself. He can see problems facing Cambodian economy and borders.

Thai leaders included the Thai Kings are a bunch of liar, dishonest, disrespect, irresponsible and act like Dr. Jackle and Mr. Hyde.
Khmer soldiers must be alert at all times against these Thai thieves.
