Another senior United States official has said that President Barack Obama will visit Cambodia in November for the East Asia Summit and the US-ASEAN summit.
Sean McIntosh, spokesman for the US Embassy in Phnom Penh, told the Post yesterday that US Assistant Secretary of State Kurt Campbell “communicated his expectations that President Obama would be here in November” during a closed-door meeting with Foreign Minister Hor Namhong on Friday.
However, the embassy has not yet received official word from the White House, McIntosh added.
David Carden, US ambassador to ASEAN, made a similar announcement about Obama’s impending visit in October.
In addition to the regional summits, foreign affairs spokesman Koy Kuong said yesterday that Obama’s visit would also focus on “strengthening cooperation between the US and Cambodia”.
McIntosh, along with Koy Kuong, also confirmed yesterday that Hor Namhong would visit Washington on June 12 at the invitation of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

US have been playing double games with Cambodian and Cambodia.
One hand they say promoting democracy in Cambodia the other hand they promote and support the so-called Husn Sen regime and yuon Hanoi.
Khmer must learn from real Khmer history and always remember that foreigner is foreigner their interest always comes first, Khmer interests always come last or never come at all if we don't fight for them.

PRESIDENT OBAMA,
PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH THE HAND OF A CAMBODIAN MAN WHO IS BEHIND OF THE KILLERS.
Khmer-Americans need to vote out Obama as president. The democrats are too soft on the communists: Vietnam and Hun Sen.
We Khmer need Mitt Romney to get rid of the communists and dictators in Asia.
Bastard Hun Sen and his doggy master DEVIL Ho Chi Minh should be eliminated by the free world.
^ Care to enlighten us about Mitt Romney stance on SE Asia? Or, are you just here to campaign for him.
If I can recalled correctly. Our current pres is putting a lid on N. Korea and Iran. Is that too soft?
I don't think anyone cares for Cambodia. As, she does not have any vital interest for them.
Cambodia problem is like it's map. Sitting on a web of triangle.
Triangles are: China, US and Vietnam.
