Archive: The path to a new political landscape


The Phnom Penh Post, May 27, 2013

Events that shaped the 2013 election and the ongoing stalemate

Six months before the Cambodian national election, few believed it would be anything more than a forgone conclusion. For most, it was a given that the ruling party would further extend its more than three-decade grip on power. Possibly, said some, the opposition might modestly boost its small minority of seats. But as the date of ballot grew closer and Cambodia’s youth mobilised, it became increasingly clear that this was by no means a one horse race.

Because khmer hate them(YOUN&SEIM) so much forgot to do anything else, that why they get richer and more power full every day. Right now khmer got nothing to match with their power, if the real full scale war broke of between khmer and those nation who going to suffer more? You should "love thy enemy" before they kill you all, if you want to win right now is not the time, the time come when you have strong military power to match them and friend with the super power nation before than you should "love thy enemy".

All the protesting has no result, I don't see anything going to change anytime soon. The leader of the protester are to weak, if they are strong there should be 100 thousand to a million of the protester in the streets right now. I see no blood spill, no death and it getting boring. They should give up now before the peoples turn againt the leader of the protester, because the leader are too weak, no result, no real goal to accomplish. People only support you if you give them what they want, if not those leader should be worry that they will turn back againt them
