One day, we all hope, Cambodia able to protect all Khmer descents around the world, like our Ancestors have done during the Khmer Empire.

Hun Sen already gave a huge piece of land and water area to Vietnam recently, yet Vietnam still encroaches into Khmer territory.

We can say that Hun Sen is a loser not a protector.
