Your Royal Highness Samdech Ta,
It is with mixed feelings that we learned about your upcoming official visit to Vietnam next month. Given the unsettled territorial, socio-demographic and political contexts in the Kingdom vis-à-vis the host country, we are deeply concerned that this official visit, if not duly thought out, has the potential to do more harm than good to the Kingdom.
We share the view held by a vast majority of Khmer compatriots at home and abroad that despite continuous inflow of foreign aids and strong bilateral relationships with key countries, particularly with China, the Kingdom continues to remain captive to Vietnam’s expansionist ambitions; and within that view, there is a prevalent sentiment and anxiety among the population that this official visit risks becoming a rubber stamp of approval to legitimize the ongoing Vietnamization in Cambodia.
We recognize that the Kingdom has achieved measurable progresses in developing the economy and maintaining a relatively stable social environment since the UN sponsored elections in 1993. However, these progresses are being manipulated politically to divert public attention away from a lingering yet vital issue – the uncontrolled and unlegislated presence of immigrants in our soil – which increasingly threatens the existence of the Kingdom as an independent and sovereign nation.
We are in the opinion that YRH Samdech Ta is in a unique position to convey a clear a message to the Vietnamese leaders that the amicable relationship between our two countries can endure only if it takes place in the context of mutual respects and benefits, and within the framework of two sovereign states.
We also believe that YRH Samdech Ta is duty-bound to deliver a message of profound love and compassion to our Kampuchea Krom brothers and sisters. Such comforting gesture, which is much needed and highly appreciated, has been long overdue.
We place special trust in YRH Samdech Ta, and understand the heavy burden and responsibility that come with it. Our heart and soul are with YRH, and we are hopeful that YRH Samdech Ta will do the utmost within your realm of powers and influences to make this visit a moment of pride and an inspiring legacy for the Khmer nation.
Your humble and faithful subjects,

Sihanouk is Ah Sdach Chhkout. He killed 1.7 million Cambodian during his peak political time as Samdach Oeuv and a big allied to Pol Pot. Please trust him, he will do everything possible to please Pouk Ah Youn. Remember that Ah Sdach Sihanouk bowed to Ho Chi Minh at his funeral.
The Khmers always rely on one or two individuals. This is our MAJOR WEAKNESS. Sihanouk has outlived his usefulness, let him die quietly and MOVE ON.
Sihanouk has never thought about his country. he always think about his own affair : his royal family, his throne, ...

Queen Monineath was born in Saigon, Vietnam. Therefore he dedicated his like to Vietnam and the current King Sihamoni is part Vietnamese also!!
Khmers are dumb and love to be fucked in the ass. Chayyo
I concur that this trip will make or break KHMER SOVEREIGN NATION and KHMER PRIDE. Even though King Father holds no power in Cambodia politics, but HRH who is the Khmer National Iconic Symbol. If HRH low himself to the Hanoi regime, then HRH represents only disgrace to KHMER RACE.
HRH Samdech Ta must do KHMER PROUD in front of foreigners, as HRH had stood up against the colonial French in the past to regain Cambodia's independence.
KHMER Angkor.
This is a very well writen and thoughtful request. The survival of Cambodia remain heavily on how much we can be united together and focus our energy on our vital enemy. However, it appears to me that it's almost impossible for us to be united and truely put our brain together to work for solutions that could icrease our chance of survival. I'm not sure of our inability to be united has to do with our ego, our self interest or simply just our own ignorant that would not allow us to overcome our self destructive stage that cause us to unnecessary fighting among ourselves to a stage of compromise and sacrify that fight for solution. I hope the great danger that we and our nation face will help force us to give up our petty diferences and work together to fine solution for common interest. We need to also keep in mind that, due to the size of our population, the size of military and rsources that Cambodia possess, our options are very limited and we can not wage war with our enemy head on. For that matter our chances of sucess are very limited and our chance of our failure are great but whatever it is we can not place the blame on our leader alone.
I wish samdech ta long life so you can continue to serve Cambodia.

i rather be called "your royal highness". please don't abuse that privilege anymore. thank you and may god bless our monarch and the royal family, etc...
I hope all of you look at the bigger picture here.
1. Viet Nam has problem with China reguarding Northern border. It has not been resolved and China has the upper hand.
2. Viet Nam signed the frienship treaty with Soviet in 1979 for protection. The Soviet suppose to help Viet Nam whenever she is attacted by foreign country, but China already tested that treaty by invading Viet Nam in 1979. Soviet did not help Viet Nam during that time because they are afraid of China.
3. Viet Nam do not want to have border issue with Cambodia. Viet Nam also signed a frienship treaty with Cambodia, but don't expect Cambodian army to go help Viet Nam if China invade thier country again. The reason, King Sihanouk is living in China and Cambodian and China are very closed friend.
4. Do you know why Viet Nam need to kiss King Sihanouk ??? They need him to ease tention between Viet Nam and China.
5. The bottom line, Viet Nam is standing alone to protect their country from foreign invader, in this case is China. Viet Nam can't depend on any help from Soviet or the US. So they are in the mercy of China.
6. China and Viet Nam are not friend. In the public, Viet Nam is acting friendly with China because they don't have a choice.
7. If Viet Nam control Cambodia the way some of the bloggers suggested, they would not let Cambodia sign any thing with China at all.
8. In the past or present Viet Nam is always supporting King Sihanouk because of this one reason.
Khmer academy,
You write a formal letter to the King, so you address him Your Majesty not Your Royal Highnest.
By the way 11;06 am. You seem to be the only one person who can guess the trip to Hanoi by the former King Norodom Sihanouk right. The rest are ignorant prigs and they deserve medals of being stupid. I heard over and over again that most Cambodians are stupid and they proved it.
Destin Lee
To be continued'
China asked King Norodom Sihanouk for helps as a special ambassador from China to meet in person with Hanoi's leaders. When GI won in Thailand again and shot down the REDs, China wants Hanoi to stop working with the US, that is why King Norodom Sihanouk visits Hanoi.
This is very good for Cambodia and for South East Asia. The former King of Cambodia is very nobel genius.
South East Asians are waiting to see the outcomes from this meeting.
Destin Lee
Genius my stinky ass?
United both youn to take over khmer and laos. If youn are still divide =weak and not gonna be khmers and Laos obstacles .
Sihaknuk demie -stupid?
Your ignorant prig 12;47pm.
You deserve a stupid medal because you are so barbaric just like Hun Sen your leader.
Destin Lee is one of the only few Cambodians who are smar.
Wow, I wish I could be very smart like him, a Khmer genius.
According to Destin Lee, most Cambodians (he is not included!) are stupid so it is too bad I was born stupid among so many Khmer compatriots.

Destin Lee is not Khmer. I just checked him in google. Korean or Chinese or Singaporean may be? Don't think all visitors are Khmers.
He is an arrogant individual, of course not all us Khmers are stupid, but we have so many old farts lop lop still following ah Yuon Ly Diep.
I am not Cambodian and not arrogant. I am happy for not to be one of you.
Destin Lee
What you write at 12:21 PM is right, Destin Lee. I agree with you.
Rational Khmer
Destin Lee,
Don't be stupid and arrogant, you fool. We are not genius but certainly not as stupid as you.
By the way, in one of your comments (at 1:13PM), you said to the author that Your Royal Highness is not proper title, well it is becuase Sihanouk is no longer the King. You, yourself, referred to him as former King.
Since we 're in corrective mode, check your spelling on Your Royal Highness.

Desitin for royal diaper rashes!!! Google this product and see for yourself why millions use this to heal their asses...
What is so "noble genius" to be a little protege running for big dogs? Desitin, give the old man some dignity, at the age of 80 plus he should not continue to be a stooge and puppet of any RED, period!!!!
Someone here really believes a giant like china actually depends on a transient old cambodian man to be a key factor in its political strategies???
You have no respect for him if you are running him for the RED's agenda until he drops dead of old age!
this guy is going to cause more trouble .if this guy die one day after the 1993 election today no youn oor cpp at cambodia today
Who's your DADDY? I was MAD half a century ago and now I'm your DAD today.
The best thing in life is that we are not in effect suppressing our free speech, and many commentators are some rational, some irrational, and some too irrational.
Too irrational people are the people like Mr. Yuon Ly Ngoc Diep, Hin Sithan, Uon Sim, and a few who follow their too irrational mentor. They have no ability to see deep or look far into deadly politics fall upon since in the past 'til today.
If we ask them how would they do it? They have no answers to anyone of our questions; but they are the best of being trolls and braggarts online. They lack of vision to look far into the crisis in South East Asia, especially why the Yuon be able to silently invade their neighbors not by force alone but by illegal immigrants. To understand this long crisis they must understand the past very well and they must study about Yuon history to understand their mentalities toward Khmers beginning since 16th century.
The idiot ones say "we must take back our land or so and so..", and at the same time these idiot ones are just trolls online smearing King Sihanouk. They cannot do anything besides barking like dogs online with no answers to solve the problems whatsoever.
Rational people are the people like Sam Rainsy and Mu Sochua, etc.
My opinion is that the visitation in Hanoi by the former monarch King Sihanouk sent by China is a very good move. Why China didn't send her own people? How can they? Avoiding from the US and the west watching who is Vietnam going to work with. ???
What Destin Lee said is right and I think this guy may have copied the idea from other forums about the visit of the King in Vietnam.
This visitation makes the west nervous because the US just won the war against China in Thailand by defeating the Reds; and to lose Vietnam to China how can it be?
If Hanoi agrees to abandon the US and to work with China to help Thaksin to power, Cambodia must be ready with another game: if Yuon agree to help China then ask China to let them stay in Cambodia to do whatever they want, then Cambodia must flip to another game.
Why they keep clowning one day saying china is taking over southeast asia and yuons will lose big, (yes, just wait and see); and now, that he is going to hanoi, they are now saying it is a brilliant move. And they credited themselves as being "rational!" Isn't this the same flip-flop way that has been the trademark well-known by the world?
Make up your mind, or otherwise, you are going to the grave being a runner boy?
not stupid, just wrong. stupid is only when you destroy or hurt your own country, etc...
people got to do what people got to do, it's called politics. believe it or not experience counts a lot when it comes to politics, you know!
1:27am,
Why not a smart move to visit the enemy? And what is your tactic that can combat against Yuon Hanoi?
Politics run like the wind, we get to be able to bend what offers to us.
If you are Yuon, and you are afraid of China, then who can blame you? It is true that China can swallow Vietnam any time. Look for "L'Offensive Navale de la Chine" and under :Manoeuvre Chinois du "Collier de Perles".
I am Khmer I say it is the right move for the King to visit Yuon Hanoi. There're so many interceptors from GI and from every nations so what is wrong for China asking the King to be her ambassador? Why not going to meet the enemy of China and Cambodia in person?
The Red shirts lose, this visiting is quite surprised but do we have choices?
2:23AM yes we have to bend over,put your ass up and get base ball bat either banana the white men size in,not the Chinese and Vietnamese because they have no money to enlarge the size and satisfy our needy people.
It look nasty and sensitive but full of politic live savior
6;16am.
I am not into your low class and barbaric type, dude.
Some people who resort to dirty languages like you are never understood what need to be freed.
A fool like you is good just being a troll.
Long Live King Sihanouk!!!
Folks,
Why insulting each other like school boys? I know you gentlemen are much smarter than that.
Please use your intellect to contribute something positive that we can all be proud of.
We don't have to agree with each other view, but we can disagree and still be polite/civilize at the same time.
Thank you for listening.
I always thought China would be on Cambodia side against Vietnam. But some bloggers said that China is changing its tactics, i.e. allowing Vietnam to stay in Cambodia in exchange for Vietnam not to take side with USA. Is China shooting itself in the foot? Can Vietnam be trustworthy for China?
7;56am.
China and Vietnam are always enemy, and the two never trust each others, no one should either.
But the situations of global geopolitics keep changing.
China has more money, except the weapons are not quite good as the US, but China has invested in all Continents with all 8 branches of investments. Wrote by the Brice Pedroletti under "L'Appetit des Geants Chinois ne Faiblit Pas".
The European nations are weak except England some countries are bankrupt and some governed by the mobs such as Russia and Italy.
If you read China's security under "L'Offensive Navale de la Chine", you can see Vietnam is too tiny and it is inside of la Manoeuvre Chinois "collier de perles".
And look at inside of Vietnam most Chinese are holding the big business. Vietnam may try to bargain to stay in Cambodia, but King Sihanouk will challenge. King Sihanouk helped to seat China in UN.
As you see China helps Thaksin to govern Thailand, and GI (US) fought back, and now GI won but how long. Vietnam are in between US and China, but China wants Vietnam to stop working with the US. Vietnam is under pressure to choose one, and while Yuon fishermen have been shot almsot every day along the caost, Vietnam can only watch.
China also threats Russia for helping Vietnam with weapons, and Russia stays calm.
You will see Thailand let the junta militarey to control Thais, to block all activities may be created by Hanoi. The US and China do not trust Vietnam but they both need Vietnam to complete their victory in SEA.
