Op-Ed by Khmer Young
On the web at http://cambodianbrightfuture.blogspot.com
Today, Somdech Ta's BMD clip has intrigued my concerns. Somdech Ta has tried to show his gut in fighting against Lon Nolians, and tried to flatter those who are serving his interests.
Of course, Somdech Ta has learned nothing through recent progress of world politics particularly the appearance of globalization. Somdech Ta is still esteeming his past and revenging his eternal enemies, and boasting his current supporter regardless of what their behavior worse would be. This is very pathetic for Somdech Ta who is not only old of age, but old of vision and wisdom.
More than this, his admiring to those current Cambodian top leaders who have personally donated money for him to use for personal purposes. What is a very uneducated statement and admiration of Somdech Ta is that he has never interested the good source of those money donated by those top leaders of Cambodia. To be sure, Somdech Ta should think that is those money legal or illegal? But Somdech Ta is happy with this donation and wealth donated to him. It is truly an ugly money that good leaders will not suck blood of their own people for their own interests.
Cambodia has been listed by the international transparency as a most corrupted country. The same leaders who are clinging to power like Hun Sen and his group will exacerbate the corruption phenomena in Cambodia.
When Somdech Ta is admiring these leaders, it means Somdech Ta himself had practiced this way to gain personal accumulation in the past or present time. Somdech Ta might not interest in anti-corruption and the transparent leadership improvement for Cambodia.
Somdech Ta's statement and admiration has well illustrated the continual nepotism, patronage embedding, kleptocracy, and predatory state in Cambodia. Hun Sen has learned so well from Somdech Ta and he is continued to grab in power till his death arrives like Somdech Ta will cling to the titling as Cambodian Father until his death arrives.
How Cambodia can move forward in a very constructive way when Cambodian leaders are self-interest clinger like this?

Excellent statement KY.You should translated to Khmer and published in Cambodian news paper.We need to educated Cambodian people to understand the real situation in Cambodia.Appreciated all your excellent comments in KI.
Par quelle manière qu'on puisse transformer l'éducation ancestrale vers une révolution permanente; sans trop se baser sur l"unique" esprit divin?
KI a bien tenté de faire bouger la tête des khmers qui malheureusement irait dans un proche futur, se trouver dans une "réconciliation" pour diviser et se faire acheter. La roue de l'histoire a fait perdre la génération future "innocente".
Nous avons le gêne "hypocrite"!
This (disgusting) Sihanouk bloodlines are curses to Cambodia. From father to sons, non are worth mention to when come to nationalism. They think Khmer are their servants and Cambodia is their playground. Let hope that when the CPP are topple and the next regime emerges to declare Cambodia a republic state--that if it's not too late from become the next Champa. Hell awaiting for all of you...the royalists.
Sihanouk is further becoming senile. His mind is still stuck in the late 1960's and 1970's. Even though Khmer republicans such as Lon Nol, Cheng Heng, Sirik Matak, In Tam, and Sosthene Fernandez are long dead. He still attacks them and his vengeance for them and their descendants still runs wild. I don't know how he can thank people such as Hun Sen and claims him as a savior to the Cambodian people. Makes me sick and makes me think how the royalists are extremely irrelevant. Their kind has destroyed Cambodia for hundreds of years.
Hmmmm...C'est quoi Kraingmeas???

Is this right?
what is there to be alarmed about? kleptocracy is always existed in cambodia and perhaps the world as well. that said, it's time to call for real political reforms in cambodia. two wrongs don't make it right!
