Koh Tral Island must not be forgotten

By Ms. Rattana Keo

Why do Koh Tral Island, known in Vietnam as Phu Quoc, a sea and land area covering proximately over 10,000 km2 [Note: the actual land size of Koh Tral itself is 574 square kilometres (222 sq miles)] have been lost to Vietnam by whose treaty? Why don’t Cambodia government be transparent and explain to Cambodia army at front line and the whole nation about this? Why don't they include this into education system? Why?

Cambodian armies are fighting at front line for 4.6 km2 on the Thai border and what's about over 10,000km2 of Cambodia to Vietnam. Nobody dare to talk about it! Why? Cambodian armies you are decide the fate of your nation, Cambodian army as well as Cambodian people must rethink about this again and again. Is it fair?

Koh Tral Island, the sea and land area of over 10,000 square kilometres have been lost to Vietnam by the 1979 to 1985 treaties. The Cambodian army at front line as well as all Cambodian people must rethink again about these issues. Are Cambodian army fighting to protect the Cambodia Nation or protecting a very small group that own big lands, big properties or only protecting a small group but disguising as protecting the Khmer nation?

The Cambodian army at front lines suffer under rain, wind, bullets, bombs, lack of foods, lack of nutrition and their families have no health care assistance, no securities after they died but a very small group eat well, sleep well, sleep in first class hotel with air conditioning system with message from young girls, have first class medical care from oversea medical treatments, they are billionaires, millionaires who sell out the country to be rich and make the Cambodian people suffer everyday.

Who signed the treaty 1979-1985 that resulted in the loss over 10,000 km2 of Cambodia??? Why they are not being transparent and brave enough to inform all Cambodians and Cambodian army at front line about these issues? Why don't they include Koh Tral (Koh Tral size is bigger than the whole Phom Phen and bigger than Singapore [Note: Singapore's present land size is 704 km2 (271.8 sq mi)]) with heap of great natural resources, in the Cambodian education system?

Look at Hun Sen's families, relatives and friends- they are billionaires, millionaires. Where did they get the money from when we all just got out of war with empty hands [in 1979]? Hun Sen always say in his speeches that Cambodia had just risen up from the ashes of war, just got up from Year Zero with empty hands and how come they are billionaires, millionaires but 90% of innocent Cambodian people are so poor and struggling with their livelihood every day?

Smart Khmer girl Ms. Rattana Keo,

Khmer’s Actuary Financial and economic investigation found that Dr. Hun Sen and his families’ money is not less than US$ 100 billion in all around the world including banks deposited, investments and properties around the world.

All relatives of Dr. Hun Sen ( above 380 families of Dr. Hun Sen together ) is not less than US$ 200 Billion including all their properties and banks deposited and investments all around the world.

Plus the secret money such as drugs dealer, Gold, Silver, diamonds, forest trees cut down, Angkor watt and over 1000 Khmer ancient temples tourist income, oil in the year 2012...During Dr. Hun Sen’s regime, his economic miss calculation and management make Cambodia loss revenue not less that US$ 1 600 Billion to Thailand and mostly Vietnam.
Plus foreign aid Japan alone donates US$ 150 Billion so far. Where is the money? Interesting isn’t it?

Approximately 10 000Km2 to Vietnam (10 000Km2 of sea with full of sea foods protein, oil, minerals include Koh Trol)
65% of Cambodia forest trees have been cut down for private selling only.

Dr. Hun Sen and his families, relatives and friends are stealing from 90% Cambodian people that earn less than $2 per day. They steal 90% Cambodian people health, well being, Khmer dignity, cut down 90% Cambodian people life expectancy, foods...from 90% Cambodian people. Plus pump in more Vietnamese (approximately not less than 5 million Vietnamese in Cambodia) into Cambodia to make 90% of Cambodian people poorer and sufferer.

PLEASE NOTICE:

The posters depicting the Artist imagination of the Angkorian painted and printed in 1950s and then published for the National Geographic magazine in America for the month of April 1960. If you want to buy the magazine, you may search for month ‘April 1960’ National Geographic, it is now an authentic and considering a rare book. If you live in America, you many find it at antique shop, library or estate sale.

Now this is the real Khmer culture. Who are we to stop our khmer girls from wearing short skirts and being sexy. As we can see our girls back in the ancient time can dance topless and no one complaint that they are breaking our valuable culture HAHAHA.

The past was the past,but it is rare to come back to this new generation me.At the Khmer coasts or secret places,maybe,but not in the plain air.
No dreaming to have been back.
It was true;the Angkor era,men and women Khmer people were wearing.
Go to Angkor Wat and some Khmer Prasat anywhere in Thai,in Cambodia,and Lao,or old Khmer empire.
Kampuchea was a developed country in Southeast Asia,no any countries in this place to compare.
