This CPP government activity in dealing with human rights abuses accusation and especially with important envoy of UN in Cambodia is not professional and intellectual.
Now, the world looks at Cambodia as the mafia state because those leaders don't greet special envoy of UN,the very respectful representative of the world. More than this, it doesn't affect bad to those few leaders only, but the long period of Cambodian country and her innocent people.
We can see the fruition and result of ignorant leadership in handling with some issues that creates only bad reputation and damnation to the nation.
We don't forget that when Bill Clinton visited Cambodia, there were few low official leaders greeted him. But when Bill Clinton visited Vietnam, there were many elite state leaders greeted him. This is their smart international diplomatic action for the benefit of their nation.
With this same event, if any UN Envoy visits Vietnam, there will be hospital greeting and accompanying throughout the whole mission. They act like this, it doesn't mean that they love the envoy, but they hope for the good image of their country in the international stage.
Cambodian people seems like unfortunate to have few leaders who can damage their good image in the international stage.
