Gov't needs to find ways to work together as a team. Life is not always about you or me, its about "us", if we keep on fighting, we will lose everything. All gov't need to focus on what else need to be done? avoid personal conflict at all cost! if khmer don't love khmer no one in the world will!. Alot of us who are living abroad have faced with all sort of challenges in their lives, like struggling with English as second language, racism and other intimidation like even you have completed a degree they would still favour their citizen over you which is normal because they love their people more than you. So, if you don't love each other you will allow other to abuse you. One other thing is no other place like home, so gov't need to act now and act fast to have a system in place to help the poor. Gov't need to focus on generating income from race, fish, oil, gold etc. It would be great if gov't build 1000s of factories around the country, each factory, e.g. specialised in different goods, like dried fish packaging factory etc and than sign a contract with buyers oversea etc. Don't let other nation buy cheap from you and then they will make millions of it while you earn almost nothing!!!!. Be smarter! People come first or else it will be like pol pot where he kept all the money in swiz and now all gone for nothing where all of these monies used to belong to the death. Now swis have it all. k. Intelligent
