China investment in Cambodia is most welcoming. It's far better than having Vietnam controls all Cambodia's economic infrastructure at the present and in the future. China has always been a reliable and faithful friend of Cambodia. The two nations has a long history of friendship and it is important that we recognizes the role China can play and will play in the face of Vietnam's expansionism policy.
I doubt very much that Hanoi is happy with the way Mr. Hun Sen opening up the door to China. They might be questioning his loyalty right now. Vietnam always knows when the time has come for it to change its puppeteers, like those who went before him, or the princes or princesses in the past. Which doors and when? No wonder Hun Sen needs so many personal body guards.
Let me tell some of the idiots who has no clue how Geo-politics work. China will always be a friend of Cambodia, a trust-worthy one, given its historical relationship with Cambodia, past and present. Understand that special relationship will enable Cambodia to survive as a people and a nation. Otherwise, you will be making a big mistake all over again. Stay neutral and stay polite, especially with our good friend, China. Would you prefer Vietnam's investment or China? China invests with cash, not flooding Cambodia with their owns like Vietnam.
Cambodia and China getting together is a great news for every one! love to see this with many more countries..
