This is the second news which has been circulated on KI after the triangle economic zone development programme between Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.
The Vietnamese Government has tried everything to form the Indo-Chinese federation with the aim to allocate their Viet population into Laos and Cambodia. Laos and Cambodia should be aware that if Vietnam continues and keeps continuing, sooner or later they will achieve their goal. In particular, for the Cambodian Government, since the last century, Cambodia has never had confidence in itself and she has never tried to learn to live independently herself. Hasn't Cambodia suffered enough? Since you look at the history, from the Thai invasion in 1431 to the Vietnamese control before 1863, the Indo-Chinese war during the 1970's and the mass murder from pro-Chinese communist khmer rouge and currently, is under pro-Vietnamese Government. We always keep trying to please and beg with other nations, but we never stand up and rely on ourselves.
Cambodians should look at recent events in Thailand where the red shirts, mainly from Isaan, stood up against the Bangkok authority. We should remember that nothing is free in this world unless you fight for it. Why do you keep letting other people dominate you?
