good and sincere relationship
It is good to know that North Korea is one of the countries that opposed Vietnam occupation of Cambodia!
if this country open economic development, it will be rich faster after countries after China Japan and South Korea. I want in East Asia peaceful region for freedom to travel across Eas Asia. U know if China, Japan, Both Korea and ASEAN are well cooperate, they will one of tiger in the world and I think no other region compete. Actually, those countries have dispute territories but i wish put all issues on table to discuss. It is meant that no sound of gun. This region become security and peace for the people around the world for tour. However, one of my life, i cannot see those countries sanitary with happy and smile for their own people. Yo Yo people Eat Asia.
I think this region like EU because history happened the same in WWII. Now EU become civilization nations but East Asia and ASEAN are not yet when they can be????????? The Countries like China, Japan, and Both korea should keep the main role in this region to develop economy. Those have to learn from EU as sample like England France Germany Italy or other main states in EU keep their region security, peace, and economic development and people can work freely across region.
As long as Thailand and Vietnam choose to use military to confront Cambodia on any issue and the ASEAN will never realize their full potential!
IN THE NEAR FUTURE CAMBODIAN PEOPLE WILL BE SUFFERING LIKE THE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNIST STATE NORTH KOREA IF AH HUN XEN CONTINUE TO RUN THE COUNTRY
