"When the buffalo eats the rice plants, I dare not chase him out, when the buffalo walks away, I'll chase him for you to see, Darling" - Popular Khmer song
Osama Bin Laden is dead but regional threats remain from al-Qaeda affiliates, Cambodian officials said Tuesday, as they reaffirmed a hard stance against terrorism.
“The royal government’s stance has not changed,” said Koy Kuong, a spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “We have always maintained a clear position, which is to absolutely fight against terrorism, because terrorism is a deed which the international community, as well and the world, punishes and condemns.”
Cambodia has anti-terrorism laws and an counter-terrorism unit. It has also seen a number of local plots disrupted over the past decade, after officials learned the leader of Jemaah Islamiyah, a terrorist group, had found haven here in 2003.
Lao Monghay, a former researcher for the Asian Human Rights Commission, said Tuesday angered Bin Laden loyalists could now pose a threat to Western nations or their representatives.
However, police officials said Tuesday they had bolstered security in case of retaliatory attacks against the US or other nations, following the shooting of Osama Bin Laden by US forces in Pakistan Monday.
“Crushing their terrorist leader is an issue,” Keat Chantharith, a spokesman for the national police, said. “But safety for Cambodian people is the most important.”

PM Hun Sen and his families are the real terrorism to Cambodian people.
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 30,000 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 30,000km2 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 30,000 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 30,000 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,
