god bless cambodia and all our beautiful khmer people and citizens.
this doesn't mean cambodia depends on foreign assistance all the time, it is about exchange and diplomacy, between good, friendly nations of the world, really! ever heard of diplomacy? study foreign policy and you will understand, really!
China is too big to depend on Cambodia for help in humanitarian . China likes to help Cambodia because Cambodia support one China , that's one vote there . If Cambodia is a close friend of Taiwan , I don't think China will be a good friend of Cambodia.
It's all about stunt show of Rany HS
