"07 January was the day the thieves came to rob Cambodia!": Op-Ed by Uon Sim

Pages 222-223 of Pen Sovann’s book stressed how the Yuons look down [on us] with their intent to swallow Khmer lands, they ruthlessly said: “You wait and see, in the future, even without our troops stationed in your territories, if anyone dares to free themselves from our grasp, we will squeeze them until they are smashed, right from their start in the egg.” These are words used by Le Duc Tho, a member of the central committee of the Vietnamese Communist Party, to look down on Khmer people.

Mr. Ly Diep, could we gather all the documents together and write a book about these sneaky Viets! and better yet publish the book on line so that the world will know the truth and public opinion will be against these Viets

Meas Thes,

How did you know for sure that, in your own statement, " . . if it was no JANUARY 7TH all CAMBODIANS inside CAMBODIA were dead already and CAMBODIA would have been wiped out of the world map already?"

Your inference, perhaps based exclusively on, "KR was insane, therefore, they would have chosen to kill their own people?"

Meas Thes, you're completely out of your mind!

Khmer people inside and abroad are more knowledgeable and educated now then in the past. You can't fool us anymore, Yuons.

Meas Thes, New Phally, and the Kangaroo from the land-down-under, wake up!!!!

If you want to go after KI- Media and Ki fans, you should cross me first! I will stand up for my khmer people and khmer interests.

You should organise and unite together to form a Core of team leadership until we'll find a REAL LEADER to LIBERATE CAMbodia our motherland from Hanoi's Vietnamisation.

And stop depending on Khmer Hanoi's puppet king and his father Sihanouk anymore, the real Khmer people murderer.

I have never read Penn Sovann's book, but I can see through the Yuons' ambition of sallowing Cambodia. History proves it all along. I don't like both Khmer neighbors, but I admire the patriotism of their leaders. Their smart put the interest of nation and people first while our dumb leaders sell their nation and natural resources for their persnal interest. All decent Khmer know and say the same thing again and again...

why, i can tell you, isolation and ignorance were the reall enemies of cambodia. wake up already!

also personal ambition and power hunger, etc, all drove a person to destruction, in this case, a bad leader (past or present) is bad for cambodia. vote them all out, if we that are not working for the country's interest, etc... really! this is not the dark ages, you know! don't put up with it anymore; there are more to cambodia than you and i, and we all deserve better in this day and age, really!

Phnom Penh Post, Issue 16 / 04, February 23 - March 8, 2007

"Now they speak of democracy, but it's just talk. It's communist inside. I have seen that the CPP's hierarchy and policies are formed in the communist fashion. They talk about democracy just because it sounds good. In reality what they implement is not the same as what they say. Cambodian people have never had real democracy. The country is controlled by powerful people, and the poor people are their slaves" - Pen Sovann talking about the CPP


Born in Takeo in 1936, Pen Sovann dropped out of school at 15 and joined a local anti-French movement led by Ek Choeun, later infamous as Ta Mok. After the Indochina War in 1954, he was one of some 1,000 Cambodians "regrouped" to Vietnam for military training. He joined the Khmer Rouge in 1970, and was in charge of information until 1974. Claiming that "Pol Pot and Ieng Sary wanted to kill me," he fled back to Vietnam and was instrumental in forming the United Front for the National Salvation of Cambodia in 1978. After the Vietnamese-backed overthrow of the Khmer Rouge in 1979, he became the Front's secretary-general, and Prime Minister in 1981. Later that year, just days after criticizing the Vietnamese presence in Cambodia, his home was surrounded by "900 troops and 12 tanks," and he was handcuffed, covered with a black mask, and rushed to Hanoi were he would spend the next 10 years in prison and home arrest.

Today, he sits in a wooden gazebo over a fish pond behind his home in Takeo town. Tacked to the wooden walls are sepia-tinted photographs of Sovann alongside CPP stalwarts Hun Sen, Chea Sim, Say Phou Thong. In one he's standing in the back of a Soviet jeep reviewing troops in front of the Royal Palace in 1980. In another he's sharing a light moment with retired King Norodom Sihanouk. It's a comfortable home, but modest for a former head of state who has visited the White House, the Pentagon and the Kremlin. Besides the occasional foreign reporter or diplomat (former US Ambassador Charles Ray once lunched here), his days are undisturbed. He's the president of the National Sustaining Party of Cambodia, but the party sign in front of his home is adorned with rust and peeling paint. The government has been labeling him mentally ill for years.

Anonymous said...

Sovann once told the Post: "Cambodian politics has the head of a chicken and the ass of a duck. They speak about democracy and multiple political parties, but they practice communist ways."

He spoke to Charles McDermid on February 17 about Ta Mok, Hun Sen and the CPP's lingering links to communism.

Why do so many people have the opinion that you're crazy?

This comes from Hun Sen. In 1993 he made a statement to the people saying I had mental problems. The people asked: "Where is Pen Sovann now?" And Hun Sen said he's still alive, but he's stupid now and when he talks he foams at the mouth. This isn't true. A person should be
judged by how they act.

What was it like to work with "The Butcher" Ta Mok?

I met Ta Mok in August, 1949. Later, I became his bodyguard and adviser. At the time he was teaching people about resistance tactics. He was a good help to many people. At that time he was a good person with a good character. He started to change around 1968.

How did you react when you learned Ta Mok died last year?

I had two feelings. First I felt very sorry to lose the person who taught me about fighting injustice from 1949 to 1954. I also thought it was fair enough for him to die. Ten of my relatives, including my siblings, died because of Ta Mok. I started hating him in 1972: at that time he changed from a rabbit to a bear.

Anonymous said...

What was your relationship with Pol Pot?

I met him many times: the first was on March 12, 1950 and the last time was March 18, 1970. At first we talked about the movement against the French. He had a good background and he had a good character at the time. Like Ta Mok he started to change around 1968 when he became influenced too much by China and became a Maoist.

Why did you leave the Khmer Rouge in 1974?

It was caused by different views on policy. They had started to trample on the people and were following Mao. There was no justice. I went to Vietnam as a refugee. At the time Vietnam didn't want me to stay. They thought I was a spy for the Khmer Rouge. I tried to explain that the Khmer Rouge were killing Cambodian people and that one day Pol Pot will try to invade Vietnam. At the time they didn't believe me. It wasn't until 1977 that Vietnam believed me. They asked me to select people in border areas who were unhappy with the Khmer Rouge to come to be trained in Hanoi. Among these people were Chea Sim, Hun Sen and Say Phou Thang and others who are now running the present government.

What was your first impression of Hun Sen?

First, he is a very proud man. He has always had one characteristic: he knows that Vietnam believes in him. I appointed him to be a member of the Front. I knew that the leaders in Vietnam thought Hun Sen was young and clever, but he had no experience and spoke no other languages. In October 1978, when I saw that they wanted to promote Hun Sen I went to them and asked them not to promote him. I asked that they not let Hun Sen be so proud. He was only in his 20s at the time.

Do you regret asking Vietnam to come into Cambodia to fight the Khmer Rouge?

I have no regret. I was the one who asked them to help, and they helped a lot of people. But I asked for assistance, not an invasion.

To what extent does Vietnam continue to have an influence in Cambodia government?

You must understand, Vietnam does not want to make Cambodia better. They want Cambodia's economy to collapse. There is Vietnamese influence from top officials to basic officials and the police. The people don't like this, they have never liked the Vietnamese style.

Anonymous said...

Are you a communist?

I am not a member of any Communist Party. Communism itself is not bad, but its implementation has been bad. Communism states clearly to respect human rights, the poor and the benefit of the nation. I stopped believing in communism in March 1981 because communist regimes have slow economic growth, and under the powerful people in the party, citizens don't have freedom.

Why were you removed as prime minister?

The party leaders in Hanoi were trying to control everything in Cambodia: the military, immigration and the economy. First, they accused me of building a free-market economy that was against communist practice. Second, they accused me of being a "narrow-minded nationalist" for speaking out against Vietnamese immigration. Third, that I was disobedient for not respecting orders from Hanoi. There were other things, too. I was against the K5 program [a strategic military belt along the Thai border] and I had started an airport tax. The charges weren't real. They were designed to arrest me, and the leaders of the Front agreed.

After you, the next Prime Minister was Chan Si. In Margaret Slocumb's book The People's Republic of Kampuchea 1979-1989 [pp 143-144], she wrote that you believed Chan Si was killed by Hun Sen at a banquet in Phnom Penh in 1987. How did Chan Si die?

I could not give any comments about how the former Prime Minister Chan Si died because I could get in trouble if I speak. This [story] has a lot of secrets.

In October 1991, the People's Revolutionary Party of Kampuchea (PRPK) officially abandoned Marxism-Leninism and changed its name to the CPP. Since that time, has the CPP acted in a democratic fashion or a communistic fashion?

Until now the ruling party was communist. Now they speak of democracy, but it's just talk. It's communist inside. I have seen that the CPP's hierarchy and policies are formed in the communist fashion. They talk about democracy just because it sounds good. In reality what they implement is not the same as what they say. Cambodian people have never had real democracy. The country is controlled by powerful people, and the poor people are their slaves.

In your career in politics, what are you most proud of?

That no one could ever buy me.

Are you a patriot?

I don't want to be judged by words from my lips, but rather from my actions in the past.

Dear Lok Li Diep,

Thank you so much for providing the book title from Lok Pen Sovan.

I have already ordered the book vias Amazon.com.

I 'd also like to thank your post in this forum for your contribution to our new Khmer generation.

Although some people has accused you of Youn Spy, I believe you are one of Khmer compatriots to try to explain the suffering of our nation. I love your story.

Please continue to post more book titles and other documentations relating to Youn secret policy and our secret Khmer leaders who had been or have been continuing to support the foreign policy, such as Vietname. I have been collecting this in hope that one day I will host a site to educate our new Khmer generation to understand of who we are and of why have lost our ancestor land since the fall of Ankor.

Have a wonderful day, Sir.

With Best Regards,
