Survivors of the Khmer Rouge: The prince - 31 Mar 09


Most Cambodians alive today lost at least one family member to the Khmer Rouge's brutal rule.

And that includes the royal family, among them Prince Thomico Sisowath, the nephew of former King Sihanouk.

But despite losing his parents to the Khmer Rouge he is not in favour of the tribunals that are now underway.

He tells Al Jazeera his story.

Soy again. Soy wrote Prince Thomico's late Mother "Princess Nanette", but when Soy wrote Princess Nanette's young sister, Soy wrote "Monique" instead of Queen Monineath.
Soy cannot be Heng, is another Khmer racist.
Al Jazeera is not real correct, saying Prince Thomico is a nephew of King Sihanouk, Thomico is a nephew of Queen Monineath through his late Mother, a distant nephew to King Sihanouk, because His Dad was a distant cousin to King Sihanouk.

Talking about Prince Thomico, he still believes that Hor 5 Hong ordered to kill his parents Prince Metheavy and Princess Nanette.

Unfortunated Prince! Any documentation has shown Sdech Ta/Mai were detained in Royal Palace? Well Palace is where the King stays. Is'n it? I wouldnt be surprise at all! unless the Sdech Ta was one of the prisoners at S21 or somewhere else during Pol Pot! Just show the people turth, show me the money! haha

The Prince has the right to say just like everybody else, but the court say better late than never. Few, but very responsible and why not? Just to tell what happen is enough for the prince, but for millions other are not. Especially when everyone else looks at the killing underminding the entire human race. You just cann't destroy two millions lives and expect to walk away free. It would be too easy. Don't you think? It seems that the prince only say it to protect the royal family, especially King. It's good that you do what you did, but it's much deeper than that. People knows that His Majesty The Old King was heavily involved into this. Also the one that run the Cambodian's government today is the former KR and also the royal family's only best allied. Take our advice Priince, get a lawyer for the old King and get on the trail with the rest of the people who cares for true justice and the protection for the next human's race.

What Prince Thomico said is not true. During Khmer Rouge Regime, Sihanouk travel to North Korea shooting his movies with one of the Khmer actress I forget the name. He also travel back and forth to Peking and stay in his Pnom Penh Palace. Giving orders to Khmer Rouge. His anka nickname is Samakmit Sorn.
Thomico maybe playing dumb or just try to cover up on his Royal Family. Anyway Sihanouk not real Khmer anyway. Look up on wikipedia for his background you'll know.
