The CPP has decided to promote 5 army officers who are close to the party to the rank of 4-golden-star general. A former Funcinpec defector who is currently a vice-PM was also promoted to the rank of 4-golden-star general as well.
Based on a royal decree signed by Chea Sim, the Senate president and interim head of state, dated 09 March, General Chea Dara, Hing Bun Heang, Sao Sokha, Nhek Huon and Phan Nguon are all promoted to the rank of 4-star generals. At the same time, Serey Kosal, a former fighter from the Funcinpec rank, who recently defected to the CPP and who was nominated as vice-PM, was also promoted to the rank of 4-star general also.
According to the number provided by the minister of Defense, the RCAF counts 2,200 army generals from the rank of 1-golden-star to 4-golden-star.
It should be noted that, after Hun Xen, Chea Xim and Heng Xamrin were promoted to the rank of 5-golden-star generals recently, officers loyal to the CPP were encouraged and strengthened. The situation in Cambodia currently is likened to the Burmese Junta leadership.

There are still more stars in the sky so we, as Cambodians, should not be worried about running out of stars to give to our generals.
ReplyDeleteHope they can defend the country as much as the number of stars they are wearing on their uniforms.
Hahahahahaha...........sa..sa..sa..sa..koal..se..se..se..rey..ko..sal...sdoeung pek hoeuy......hahahahaha
ReplyDeleteIf you can't win them then join them to become another puppet's puppet.
ReplyDeleteThis bloke will be in the garbage bin later. Join them are kong vibol and khau meng hean etc. In australia they work as casual part time interpreters. They went to Cambodia to be corrupted and get rich quick.
Hun Sen has to beaf up whoever he trusts because he don't feel save these days . All those stars will fall one day just like what happened to those Republican Guards ( Sadam Husen's bodyguards ) in Irag .
ReplyDeleteFuck it. Even a poor chump knows Serey Kosal is dumb-fuck, boot-licking asshole.
ReplyDeleteCambodia has full of dumb-fuck generals, no doubt it will remain a fucked up third-world forever.
I have had personally met this son-of-bitch, Serey Kosal, in the VIP lounge in Cambodiana hotel with full of Ruom Rit's entourages accompanied him. Suffice to say, if this son-of-bitch is made (or promoted to) a four-star general--Cambodia, we have a PROBLEM.
ReplyDeleteWar is peace
Hun Sen is afraid of armies Coup d'Etat, he promotes new 5 stars generals to lower existing army generals power by withdrawing from them army controls.
ReplyDeleteyea because serving ah KR like you gets him no where.

Most of Royalist party are thork, they never thinking about country and citizen. The big think of them are $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
ReplyDeleteIf these men are promoted for 4-stars generals? What happens to the old the 4 golden stars that were promoted by PM Hun Sen in 05?
ReplyDeleteHow about 4 golden stars general Kim Khun?
Soon, every soldier will become a 4-star general even if they cannot read or write. Most of these so called "generals" don't even know how to shoot a gun. The only gun they know how to shoot is the one inside their pants. It's another bad sad day for Cambodia as a country.
ReplyDeleteWhat's strategy is RGC playing?
ReplyDeleteBehind the scene,there is always a reason?
Utilising these promotion or to protect?
Please do not fall into the trap set khmers up into different faction KRs to KILL one another in 1977,1978-1979!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Vietnam turns cambodia to James BOND 007's scenes.
Wath out everyone!!!!.
Kaun Khmer
This is how hun sen keep his tight control on Cambodia; by promoting these defectors like serey kosal to general he is keeping them at bay. It's a title only, these scums of society have no control over the army. in other words, these generals have no army to follow but themselves. the cpp will not trust a former loyalist to lead the cambodian army for fear of rebelion. So this kind of promotion is just a tactic to let former Funcinpec loyalists wear a title, yet they have no power whatsover.
