A dignified retirement is another gift Hun Sen can give the country

By Nhem Cheabunly

We agree with Prime Minister Hun Sen that if he resigned, land prices would go down.

Cambodia's exchange rate would also drastically change. But then it could spring up after the new prime minister or government completed its cabinet arrangement.

We profoundly thank Hun Sen for his leadership and his efforts for more than 20 years to bring Cambodia from war to peace. But we would also thank him a lot if he resigned and allowed a new person the opportunity to lead, in a peaceful and dignified way.

This act could be one of the prime minister's big contributions to the nation. For example, Dr Mahathir bin Mohamad resigned peacefully from office and allowed Dato' Seri Abdullah bin Haji Ahmad Badawi to lead Malaysia. Mahathir's people still strongly support him. This is a good example in the region.

A prosperous, developed and strong country never has only one strong and smart leader. It should have more and more different leaders to keep steady growth.

We think Cambodia won't become unstable if Hun Sen resigns.
