The third anniversary of the ascent to the throne of His Majesty, King Norodom Sihamoni of Cambodia, was celebrated on 29 October with the broadcasting and the display of the pictures of the king in public places. Well wishing messages sent by top Cambodian leaders to the king were read on TV and on radio, as well as published in newspapers and magazines. The pictures of the king were displayed in various public places in the city of Phnom Penh, showing him in various charity activities. Furthermore, fireworks lit the sky in front of the royal palace on Monday night also. King Sihamoni who is 55-year-old, succeeded to the throne after his father, King Norodom Sihanouk, retired three years ago. The king reigns but does not rule in the government.
