Op-Ed by Khmer Young
On the web at http://cambodianbrightfuture.blogspot.com
If we look back to KR's propaganda, current CPP's propaganda is the same. KR once was able to persuade huge Cambodian people to join their force through the accusing of American bombing. But it was a manipulation, it was a propaganda!
Now, Cambodian peoples are also manipulated by propaganda of CPP's members and their sympathizers. Whenever, they expressed their opposing ideas to the CPP's ideas, they are easily labeled as creating "division" inside Cambodian society. Cambodian people are still living under fear. At least three fears they are receiving everyday from CPP's propaganda through mass media such as 1. fear of civil war would happen again, 2. fear of internal division of their opposing ideas, and 3. fear of local authority who are spying them. Some Cambodian politicians stated that Cambodians are under three other fears: Khlao (unknown the reality), Khlean (poor and destitution), and Khlach (afraid of powerful CPP government). We cannot deny that Cambodia is controlled by fear or the climate of political fear.
But if we observe closely and use our deep conscience, the "division" accusations are just the propaganda of CPP. For instance, Sam Rainsy who has been sharply criticized misbehaviors of some CPP's elites, and aftenly Sam Rainsy has been labeled as "division" provoker. How division by means and concepts they want to refer? Is it intellectually articulated? It is not intellectual at all, it is just a propaganda to silence the Cambodian people from expressing their freedom of speech. Peoples have always expressed their diverse opinions in the free and democratic societies. So, different ideas don't exactly mean that there will be a division, but it is just a tool of development particularly the democracy development.
Even though a key political leader has been accused of creating "division" from his critical speech, so how about normal and general Cambodians? They will be promptly silenced from this propaganda.
In reality, though some time his speech is not relevant, Sam Rainsy has showed his courage and strong ideal to encourage Cambodian people to express and use their freedom of speech for the better of their lives and Cambodia. Sam Rainsy's speech cannot be ignorantly labeled as the cause of "division". In an intellectual idea, his idea is just a part of diversity of human being. Sam Rainsy's speech is not a cause of division leading to war or social chaos. Sam Rainsy himself has no weapons or armed force-base to cause division at all. Now, all military power and police power are totally controlled by Hun Sen. Through recently armed force consolidation, what trajectory of Cambodia's future Hun Sen want to lead? Militarism, dictatorship, authoritarianism, or other types of predatory states?
Cambodian people should not be continually brainwashed and manipulated by political propaganda. Cambodian people should deserve to learn in a very constructive way!

What a shit load of crock. It's better to fear the system than to fear the criminal. Who the hell would want to be like Long Beach Slum where people fear to walk near an alley or stop a car at a stoplight?
Ah Khmer-Yuon doesn't know what he's talking about. Don't listen to him.
Hey, corpse 11:08, it's you again. Still not wash your mouth. Come on, it's so stinky.
Great deliberation KY. I do believe according to what you have told us.
Cambodian peoples are trapped under political propaganda from regime to regime.
Now, Hun Sen's regime, Cambodian people are living under fear and suffering...
KY got it right. Khmer is all about Khlean, Khlao, Klach. Khmer leader rule their country andpeople through this 4Ks.

WTF is this shit? KKK? Just because you can come up with a three words rhyming phrase doesn't make you sound right. All the so called fears this dipshit is talking about is present in any fucking country, you dumbass. Who is not afraid of hunger? Who is not afraid of civil war? WHo is not afraid of the government? I live in the US and I still have those fears. This guy who wrote this acts as if he is new to reality. It's called life, buddy. Maybe, you're been pampered in your family all this time and never realize the reality of life. Who the fuck doesn't have fear?
Do you fear a strong gay man will come up behind you and jam a dildo up your ass? Do you, punk?
stupid comparision. if you ate that afraid of US, I told you many time before , why don't pack your shit up and go back to live under hun Xen's feet ? You don't want to lose hamburger after faking your PR papers ?
Well put, 5:33!
By your stupud lop lop analogy, why should to continueto stay in the US ? Hypocite bastard.
You are missing the point, Ah Potato digger (7:44). What we are saying is we can't let you people do what you want. Fear is an essential element to keep you in check. Get it, punk?
i totally agree with Ky. just to add to this i want to remind folks khmers here and there a little bit:
-khmers need to find proper solutions and mechanism to free and escape themself from all the above fears. words mean a lot but actions will lead to even satisfying quality of life. yeah that's quality of life! if we think about quality of life khmers will get rid of these fears easily. With these fears, khmers go nowhere and will live in poor conditions and live to serve the-haves for sure!
-what roles should opposition parties play? again they should not just move their lips to say this bad that bad. instead i suggest you present any form of lifestyles for quality life at least life better in quality and in conditions that their basic human rights allow them to enjoy!
role model, ability and capacity to demonstrate what really need to be done show more credit than lip service.And oppostion must realize this.
more points to add to all of these is that opposition should realize that when fears are in people's mind, opposition must show firm stance and policy to assure people that those fear will not possibly happen at all under the opposition's reign. However, is oposition party capable as a state party that can replace cpp yet?that's a big concern for thousands of voters.
yeah let's say clean your house, boast quality for functioning and working of your party first and then you can prove to serve people with service of efficiency and quality!
Push yourself beyond conventional thinking; and KY did it. Applaud. Most of the intelligent people will appreciate your effort and thoughts with this article. I encourage you to challenge the obstacles and embrace your respectful thoughts. Again, congratulation.
There goes another victim of westerner propaganda who constantly brag about his forefathers George Washington, Napoleon, De Gaule, King Henry, ... .
