Youk Chhang, who would you chose as Time Magazine Person of the Year? Norodom Monineath Sihanouk

Chhang is Director of the Documentation Center of Cambodia.
Person of the Year Nominations


Source: http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,2030948_2030946_2034599,00.html


TIME asked past TIME 100 honorees whom they would choose for 2010. The nominations are in

Youk Chhang: Norodom Monineath Sihanouk

Queen Mother Norodom Monineath Sihanouk of Cambodia is the embodiment of resilience, a beautiful woman who has endured countless hardships with dignity and courage. Through her, we can learn about colonialism, independence, civil war, genocide, democratization and the quest for justice. Her life too will teach us about the complex history of Cambodia, a country often overlooked.
-------------
KI-Media Note: Here are some of the things we can learn from
Then-princess Monique Sihanouk as a jet set fashionista in the 60s

Right: Then-princess Monique during a visit to the Khmer Rouge liberation zone. A couple of years later, the KR regime instituted a genocide in Cambodia that saw almost 2 million Cambodians killed.
Then princess-Monique sharing quality time with Vietnamese General Vo Nguyen Giap and his wife. Vietnam engineered the removal of the KR regime in 1979, and it also decided to maintain a more than one-decade long occupation of Cambodia.
Birthday hoopla in the banana kingdoom for Queen-Mother now rebaptized Monineath
The picture is incomplete without Cambodia's Dictator, the Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Samdach Hun Xen, and his morality squad leader-wife, the Chumteav Dr. Dr. Dr. Bun Rany Hun Xen
Cambodia's royal family's visit to Hanoi, allegedly, to receive Vietnam's ovation for the royal help to the oppressive communist regime under which more than 14 million Khmer Krom still suffer from. But, of course, Kampuchea Krom is no longer Cambodia's problem. The land was lost long ago by an unwise ancestor of the current royals.

Putting pictures of HM Norodom Sihanouk, the Queen, and the current monarch Norodom Sihamony is like pitting defenseless rabbits to the KI wolves pack. Whether you call yourself Heng Soy or Socheata, or something else, but at the end of the day, we know you are Tioulong Saumura who is behind those cut-and-paste articles and the add-on sarcastic comments. We are very aware, this happened on many occasions in prior times. But you have reached the threshold of our tolerance for us to not able to hold off on your secret identity any longer.

You all should be ware of lightening. Cursing old people, you will be spelled doom by spirit. I could see that you are not only lacking of self-respect but also disgrace majority of Khmer people. I personally believe that you are enjoying life in the what so called the land of liberty or the home of the brave where opportunities for education to promoting your moral are high . I urge you to learn how to respect others and to differentiate between the good and bad. An old adage "you should show respect to others before you expect others to respect."

Bless you all the best

This whole monarchy criminal people and yet they still stand there eligantely who do they think they are? whenever I look at them, I can see blood in their hands and can never be washed away. the innocent people blood is yet to give a curse on their souls, well, judgement day will be here soon and hopefully, they will pay the price for what they have done. TO me, these people are like rabish collector but then some how they could find their way up to rule over even educated people. I hate them soooo much, I wish they will die soon and then go straight to hell.

According to statement of Chhang Youk,there has been so much quality in queen mother.

What has Cambodia becomes since she has done so much to Cambodians?
2 millions died of killingfield and starvation?

or constitutional coup with agreed package in 2005?

Conspiracy with Drs Bun Ranny for trading role as head of the Red cross and keep king Sihamony on the throne?

Assistance to KR that induced killingfield?

Are cambodians and Cambodia are better off after 1965? in comparison to our neighbouring countries such as Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia...and so on.

I wish you are that naive,and please explain?

Peasant,

Isn't that Cambodia was under the King father after Khmer get her independence from France...and isn't the queen mother is his wife? She is playing a significant role in Khmer political arena (whether it good or bad!) what Mr. Chhang try to say is there is a Khmer woman that really stand by her man...throughout these whole political evolution in Cambodia.

And if you ever meet the King father with the queen mother by his side, she pay 100% attend toward him...if the king miss some fact, she would just said quitely to him without making any rippling the atmospher. I have to admite, if you ever in her present, you would wish to touch her hand...the feeling of bless in her present is an amazing experience!

1:20 PM,

I know you are seriously in pain. someone had voiced different opinion from you, you have disagreed with someone opinion. What good is it you? Suppose, I give both of you a gun, what would you both do? Perhaps, kill each other. So if you say he is stupid, you are also stupid.

DON'T EXPECT THAT SIHANOUK WOULD FALL IN CHHANG YOUK'S TRAP. SIHANOUK KNEW EXACTLY WHAT HE DID AND DIDN'T DO!

This Monique woman is a devil who share a huge responsibility with Sihanouk to commit treason against Cambodia and her people.
She has been playing a major role to destroy Khmer culture and institution.
When she became a favorite concubine, she did what she can to oppose against Queen Kosomak and played her card well by creating an other Palace in Chomkar Morn for her and Sihanouk to reign and challenged with the Chaktomouk Palace where Queen Kosomak legitimately reigned.
In Sihanouk's bibliography which was written by Jeldres, claimed that Sihanouk and Monique were married, it's a false claim. Queen Kosomak was never approved of this woman.

We hardly hear Sihanouk mentioned about his own mother who worked so hard to preserve Khmer culture and tradition, including the reviving of the Khmer classical ballet, which also known as "Robam Preah Reajea Truop" (The royal funded dance) which she used her own funding to support top class trainers and costumes, Chan Chhaya hall, the venue where the rehearsal took place everyday. The unique classical dance have been highly praise by both national and international acclaim.
Sihanouk and Monique instead went wild with French influence, with making movies, plays... wasted of countless national resources.

What have this woman done to deserve this honor?
Youk Chhang once suggested to have Bun rany huge statue to be made.
Youk Chhang not just betray Cambodia and Khmer people but he deliberately betray the Khmer history by using his influence to kow tow these living devil women to aim for his personal gain.

Common, bring just one significant action she had done for Cambodia and Khmer people, and make sure you elaborate the fact and finding of the action to share with us if you dare defending her, 6:36PM.

Remember, you must bring every detail of the action. Otherwise you are just an other Youk Chhang follower.

In the 60's, yes she brought Paris to Cambodia. Wasn't everything else France?. It was nice and fresh changed to some who had money to go after those luxuries. To many people? No, it was totally insane. Yes, it freaked the hell out of Queen Kosamak and his many other wives and their families who worshiped Cambodian's costume. It freaked the hell out of ah Khmer Rouge the most. That's why the whole country went to hell in 1975. Lon Nol's Era changed nothing from the west. Instead, it encouraged more freedom and everything else. Now looking back, was it really that bad? What bad? We just didn't know how to handle it. People do the thing they like to do. What's the problem? Want to worship our costume, worship ours. Want to go free and do what we want? go and do what ever we want. Life is free!. It's great! and fabulous! just watch where you're going a little bit and don't get your rear end in trouble with the law, you're alright. The west is with the future and it's better any way. Can you tell why king Sihanouk didn't give a sh.t stopping it? but he still practice Buddism. Queen Monique may brought Paris to Cambodia at home, but on a broad, you saw her. She is very Khmer woman. A very polite one. That she earns respect and admiration.

I always have a high esteem for Mr. Youk Chhang until TODAY! How disappointing and absurd choice!!! From now on,I look at Mr. Chhang different way from the guy I always admire! This make me think for next year's Person Of the Year will be?
Ah Kwack and My Chhrouk (husband and wife team).Sorry Mr, Chhang,you just flushed my regards to you down the toilet!!!!

If the Khmer leaders wanted to become king or head of state or head of government, they always ask the aid of Viets and Siams, and finally they are always the Viet Slave, Siam slave.

This is the mentality of Khmer leaders.

Know what you know,the ones you don't you should learn to know;who is Sihanouk? What did he do in 1970,when he was in Beijing,China?
He called out Viet troop soldiers to kill Khmer soldiers,Khmer educated people,Khmer farmers,Khmer citizens.They killed until 1973,then they left Cambodia;Khmer Rouge and Khmer Vietminh mixed up in Cambodia.Khmer Rouge were supported by China;and Khmer Vietminh were supported by Vietcong.These two big groups,they fought for power.Khmer Rouge won,but they did not trust among Khmer Rouge and Vietminh;they fought each other;then 1979 Heng Samrin,Chea Sim,Hun Sen,and others,along with Vietnam troops invaded in Cambodia,they just killed Khmer Rouge,but they killed Cambodian citizens along the way the Highways.
Now, you knew about Sihanouk,his wife,and Hun Sen, Heng Samrin,Chea Sim,and other officials in this Viet slaves.
Even Khmer farmers,please asked them what happened 1n 1970 up 1973, did see Vietcong men and women soldiers?
Sihanouk is a Khmer killer, Heng Samrin,Hun Sen Khmer killer.
