Op-Ed: Son Sann Phantom in HRP Politics

Obviously from his November 15, 2007 appeal, Prince Ranaridh former boss of FUNCINPEC and Mr. Kem Sokha was struck with reasons from Ta Son Sann Party phantom fall out and beans spilling. Not only that, he spat on Mr. Sam Rainsy as well. To many at awes, what happens to the rhetorical national interest not individual or group? This alone puts voters in perspective, if not careful, the overconfident HRP President can probably hurt HRP more than help from being an inner clique to Son Sann with short memory lapse that Prince Norodom Ranaridh, Son Soubert and Khieu Samphan were always at the same table as the legitimate lieutenants of the Democratic Kampuchea Coalition Government during Paris-Djakarta secret getting together in the 80's.
To the surprises, Mr. Kem Sokha, the Human Rights Party newly appointed head, expressed his bitterness toward Prince Ranaridh appeal in behalf of his leader Mr. Son Sann, the phantom of monarchy in 1993. Once a CPP insider himself, Mr. Kem Sokha blamed Mr. Ieng Mouly not Mr. Son Sann for the BLDP fall out. However, few knew facts that Mr. Son Sann had arbitrarily conspired to reinstate the bloody monarchy in 1993 without Party consensus. Furthermore Mr. Son Sann had a lot to do with the Progressive BLDP loss. Being critical of others loyalty and transparency, Mr. Kem Sokha has a lot more to explain on himself than any of whom he mentioned including why people despised Mr. Son Sann dishonesty.
In the BLDP fall out, Dr. Lao Mong Hay, once was a very intimate disciple of Son Sann, recent article posted by Khmer Intelligence Blog has punctuated and let up the dark side of Mr. Son Sann long years of opportunism and self serving agendas. There ought to be more that Pundit Lao Mong Hay couldn't have had elaborated from the lessons learned to benefit the aspiring leaders in democracy.
The account also shows besides his 80's fake resistance to monarchy, Mr. Son Sann was one of Sihanouk advisors in the obscured Kampuchea Krom land cessation in 1949 and a saboteur of Khmer Republic government in 1973. The lessons shown all along Khmer tragedies are rooting from Yuon agents who were at the helm of Cambodia. So in this spiteful exchange between Mr. Kem Sokha and the corruptive Prince Ranaridh will there be any merit to the Cambodia politics future?
Like father like son, now Mr. Son Soubert, a PhD in archaeology at Sihanouk green light, is serving on the CPP's Constitutional Magistrate Council. From there he emerged as one of the HRP three powerful committees President. To the contempt of the killing fields victims, Dr. Son Soubert disgraciously went ahead to defend Sihanouk a no longer King but retired common citizen when the question raised over his immunity and crimes against humanity. Dr.Son Soubert was adamantly advocated in his present supreme judiciary capacity that because of the visibility of Sihanouk or Monique was along side with current King portrait in any conspicuous corner of the country, therefore, the royal immunity shall deem legal merit to protect Sihanouk too. This reminds many also how cunningly Mr. Son Sann was in arm twisting Mr. Hun Sen government to return his long abandoned Villa to his possession in 1993. Yet millions lost all to Sihanouk and Yuon patronage but not Mr. Deal Wheeler's. Obviously one can see how so shallow and insulting in both Son Sann and his son behaviors.
In addition Mr. Kiet Sokun, another Son Sann dedicated disciple and autocratic inclined from Australia, has risen from FUNCINPEC ashes to be Prince Thomico White Horse Party lieutenant and now the first Vice President of HRP as well. Besides the three,there are many more who swore to be loyal to Son Sann for life, are in HRP high positions. These are just few that may come back and bite HRP on the hind side during election.
Look from the head down with exception of Comrade Pen Sovann, the obvious Hanoi's Viet Minh disciple, HRP is undeniably an embryonic clone of Ta Son Sann Party. Likely it raises a suspicion whether HRP is sharing not only umbilical cord but else with Ta Son Sann group that has long colluded with FUNCINPEC, which presently is a CPP subservient club. Is it logical, one has to wonder why Mr. Kem Sokha says otherwise?

HRP: A rebirth attempt of the defunct Son Sann party? The list of candidates to the party leadership seems to say so

Kem Sokha, HRP interim president, revealed the candidates to the HRP leadership along his side. These candidates include Keo Remy, Son Soubert, Keat Sokun, and a number of other important people, as well as those coming from overseas.
Kem Sokha told Rasmei Kampuchea (RK) that Keo Remy position as vice-president of the party has received the support already. As for Keat Sokun, the former financial officer of the defunct Son Sann Buddhist Liberal party is another candidate for the party vice-presidency. He added that “up until now, we have not decided on the number of party vice-presidents nor the list of candidates for the candidates to the party leadership yet.”
However, Kem Sokha said that Son Soubert, Son Sann’s son, will be candidate for the party steering committee or candidate for the position of chairman of the party regulation council. He said that he did not have a final discussion with Son Soubert yet because the latter is actually in Paris, France. He said that a number of other leader positions for the 3 branches of the party (of which the party president is already known to be Kem Sokha, the position of the chairman of the regulation council, and the chairman of the party steering committee) will be handed over to people from overseas. Nevertheless, the names of candidates from overseas have not been revealed yet. Kem Sokha only indicated that these candidates could be people coming from Canada, France, or the US.
As for the party secretariat, it will be led by a group of four people: 2 candidates from Cambodia, and 2 candidates from overseas. There are currently two candidates to the position of secretary-general and deputy secretary-general: Nhiek Vannara who is from Cambodia, and Ou Chanrath who is from overseas.
Keo Remy said that on 20 July, the party founders will hold a meeting to make a final decision of the list of candidates to the party leadership structure before the list is being presented for approval on 22 July.
Kem Sokha and Keo Remy claimed that Mao Veasna, the president of the Students Movement for Democracy, had decided to join the HRP. Kem Sokha said that “we will welcome them because the party needs a new generation to take over.” He said: “The party goal is that we think about the future of the youth. They will take over the organization of the party in the future.”
Kem Sokha said that besides Pen Sovann’s party, two other parties sent official letters to merge with HRP. The two parties are: the National Construction Party, and the National Liberal Democratic Salvation Party.
Even though Pen Sovann did not demand any position, he will become an advisor to the party, or he can become a vice-president of the party.
