Additional photos from the Phnom Penh Monument of Disgrace
Cambodian landmine and explosive experts examine bombs in black plastic bags as they prepare to defuse them at the Cambodia-Vietnam friendship monument in Phnom Penh July 29, 2007. A bomb exploded at the monument in Phnom Penh on Sunday, forcing the evacuation of a public park where two other devices were found and defused, police said. The 10-kg bomb detonated around dawn, causing no injuries and little damage to the stone statue erected after Vietnam's invasion of Cambodia and defeat of the Khmer Rouge in 1979.

Damn! It's still standing.
Vietnamese tactic of causing chaos in Cambodia so that business will never occur. They are trying to scare potential investors from making Cambodia grow. No one is claiming responsibility, it might look like Khmers are behind this but really it might be those in Hanoi.
Yuon tricks don't work anymore. ;-) That bomb was planned by Yuon Hanoi to create chaos in Cambodia.
No one should be surprised if the bombs in Bangkok was also by Hanoi. Cambodia is too poor and trying to survive why bombed Bangkok what for?
The funny thing is Thais may have already known who did it, but they refused to point finger at Yuon for political reasons.
OOP it still standing,Cambodian people appreciate this kind of the job, but in the future will use the crane,tractor and the rope to drag it down like Saddam statue
in Iraq ,is it right folks?
koun khmer pheas khloun
Way to go my beloved Cambodian. Soon or later we will do the samething as those Palestinian. We will keep our pride up. Go KHMER!!
it is a good start...but don't u finish it....i stand with your nationalist mine.....go for it...
It was obviously planted by the CPP and Hanoi agents in order to frame some targeted people in Cambodia later on. If the nationalists had done it they would have used more explosives and a shape charge to obliterate that disgusting monument completely with a timing device. But, it was only detonated by the "Experts".
During the stalemate after the previous national election, they lobbed a grenade into Hun Sen residence near the Independent Monument after the guards had been ordered to evacuate the compound. Then, they blamed it on the opposition and started arresting people to force the other political leaderships into a compromise.
This kind of dirty tactics is widely known as the "False Flag", whereby the perpetrators organise a problem, incriminate their intended victims and then come up with their own solution. It still has been used by many world governments these days, mostly the dictatorial governments. But, when the CPP and Hanoi attempt to use the same tactic, their lack of sophistication is for all to see. They can only get away with it because they control all the security apparatuses and the courts.
It was a game of Hun Sen, because he do the same game before new election. What could he do for five four year ago with his promise.
When Cambodia can develop if We do not change the government, all cambodian voters please think before you decision to vote
