By what I have heard, concerning the Youn-Vietnamese soldiers on Khmer territory, because Ah Ho Chi Minh promised to return land (Kampuchea Kram)back to Cambodia, thus the King Sihanuak agreed to let Youn-Vietnamese on Khmer territory to fight with American soldiers. This was true, Ho Chi Minh had signed, sworn and promissed with the King to return the land to Khmer. That's why Youn-vietnames soldiers were on Khmer territory.
That is the true history that is why King sihanouk decided gaingst US indirect because he wanted our land back from Viet. If he did not do like this, VN will be like north and south Korea today, But why ah CPP don't think abaout this? Veit is crocodile like king Sihanouk said. That is the Viet behavious, please all Khmers must to know this.
This dumb King not only let Vietcong using Cambodian territories and expecting to get back Kampuchea Krom, which was lost since the 1800s, by the Khmer King, name Chey Cheatha II. Also he blamed American for bombing Cambodia.
For those hard-core Sihanouk supporters, pls. tell me is this fair game for American to bomb Cambodia or it's American fault?
As a King he should knows that Cambodian neighbores never have good intention toward Cambodia, take Chey Cheatha II as an example.
At the same time, this dumb King never discuss what his intention with the Vietcong, even let go those Vietcong prisoners without any approval from the house or Generals, because he thinks he's a God King.
Same shit like Ah Hun Shit, if he ever cooporate or listen with the opposition parties, Cambodia territory will never lost.
So by the time Cambodia became another Kampuchea Krom, than Ah Hun Shit starts blaming on Vietnam again just like Ah dumb King.
So for this damn King and all the leaders, stop accusing our neighbore, we're the one blame.
If we have more political analyst like 5:27 am,Cambodia will never have peace and has no chance to develop today.I still agreed with what Sihanouk had done if It happen again today,WHY..
1/because that was the only option/chance for Cambodia to reclaim some pieces of khmer land back from Vietnam without going to war if what was claimed was right.
2/North Vietnam & Viet Cong will still use Cambodian territory as their sanctuary/trail with or without Sihanouk's approval because then Cambodia did not have the ability to stop them even if Cambodia have the full support from America,but we did not.We all had known that North Vietnamese had the ability wage full scale war against the well-trained & best equipped South Vietnamese & American troops combined,therefore they could do what ever they pleased to Cambodia beside just using those trail.
3/If Sihanouk had decided to prevent or stop the North Vietnamese by force it meant Sihanouk is pulling Cambodia into a full scale war which Cambodia did not need to and the consequences might be worst for Cambodian people.Lon Nol regime had proved my point right in stopping and cleaning North Vietnamese from Cambodian territory.Khmer Republic under Lon Nol with sufficient military hardware from America and sufficient arm force personals had failed to drive the NV out of the sanctuary.
4/Sihanouk might had seen the Vietnam war as the only chance to gain some Khmer land back from Vietnam and at the same time he might had thought that that was the chance for Cambodia to do something to help the Vietnamese kill each other while he and his people stand and watch them kill each other and destroy themselves as we all Khmer has always wish for.Unfortunately,he was overthrown by his own general with American backed and with the withdrawal pf American forces from SV due to lack of public support back home and caused Sihanouk plan to fail misery then lead Cambodia into civil war.If what I had stated is a reasonable analysis then every Khmer leader not only Sihanouk will had chosen the same path as his back then and will do the same if it happen again.
8:21 AM,
Well does Sihanouk path work so far? Since 1800s Cambodia lost Kampuchea Krom to Vietnam, did anybody try to claim it or it just the same path as Chey Cheatha II did?
I don't think it's that simple without international court involve Re. territories and border issues.
At the same time does our neighbore really give a shit about Cambodia? So to think like you or Sihanouk is very naive, and it's never gonna work.
If all leaders back then and now using the same path like Sihanouk did, Cambodia will lost more territories just Ah Hun Shit did. Isn't he used the same path?
8:21 AM
The best analysis on the planet. You must be a four-star general to see this. The fact is, youns could kill the King anytime they want, if not for international outrage if they dare to do. But there was no way that we could prevent their objective to penetrate south Vietnam. If we stood in their way, whoever the leader was at that time would have been removed. Come on, thousands of Chinese troops and advisers couldn't even help the Khmer Rouge. Youns determination was either die or win south. That kind of mindset they will destroy whoever blocked their way.
10:08 am Tell me what would you do if you were Sihanouk back then?I can imagine what you would say if Youn let Khmer use their land as a base to attack other khmer,You would had said,Ho Chi Minh has another Tactic to kill or eliminate Khmer people by letting the KHmer using their land as a base to kill each other with wasting a drop of their blood..right??Well unfortunately Sihanouk's plan did not work and you said go back and read my comment again of what was the most probable cause of the failure.Isn't it every Khmer dream to see Youn kill each other??if that's true wasn't it the right time for any khmer to help them kill each other during their war ? and yet can you name one Khmer leader who is better than Sihanouk in the 20th & 21st century?Yes Sihanouk love power but at least he love his nation and his people as well?
8:21am, your analysis assumes that any Khmer leader would rather avoid conflict when confronting with potential existential threat from neighbors. Granted that Khmer's army is weak and no match with the large and powerful Vietnamese's. But shouldn't building up Khmer's forces be Sihanouk's priority?
It's naive to think that Cambodia will remain at peace if we just help providing the North Vietnamese sanctuaries. American bombing campaign proved that his policy did indeed spread the war to Cambodia instead of preventing it.
It's also laughable that any of his political scheme would require Vietnam to give Khmer Krom teritory back to Cambodia in return. The NVA lost millions of their men fighting to reunite Vietnam. What make you think they will give up that estate? It's just nonsense!
In hindsight, we'll never know what would happen if Sihanouk hadn't given the help to the NV. Can NV afford two wars at the same time in two countries against Americans, SV and Khmers?
With his popularity at the time, Sihanouk would not have any trouble asking Khmer to die for their own country against the Vietnamese and it would not be a cakewalk for the NV.
But as history shown us, he instead asked the KR with the NV help to fight Lon Nol's army so that his throne can be restored.
Lon Nol regime was the most corrupted government in Khmer history.He lead the nation into full scale war and the whole country had gone int chaotic.With all the military hardware supplies,advisers,and financial support from America he still failed in every front.Sihanouk could not sit and watch Lon Nol destroy Cambodia any longer,he chose the only option available at the time,he aligned himself with the KR in hope to save Cambodia.Unfortunately,he was wrong.Cambodia become the Killing Field when the KR took over which had given Vietnam had the excuse to invade Cambodia in the name of Saving Cambodia in hope that they can fulfill Ho chi Minh dream plan,Their ambitious plan also failed because of Sihanouk return.Cambodia,during Vietamese occupation period had no peace and people are starving everywhere beside living under Vietnamese control and Cambodian government is dominated by the Vietnamese.During the three regimes,LOn Nol's,KR's and Heng Somrin's,Cambodia had become the poorest and most unstable state in the world.And those had lived through all the different regimes had learnt that Cambodia will not have peace and prosperity without King Sihanouk.And base on the experiences Khmer people had with different regime they have not seen any leader who is better than Sihanouk,Base on the fact,Khmer people has every reason to love,care and respect King Sihanouk.
"10:08 am Tell me what would you do if you were Sihanouk back then?I can imagine what you would say if Youn let Khmer use their land as a base to attack other khmer"
11:57 AM,
My idea is not one man's game like Sihanouk, it should be approved by the senates or generals.
Your imaginations is outdated Re. Khmer to attack Khmer, that's communist mindset.
I never told you to re-read my comment, you must be dreaming while you're writing, or you just talking to yourself, isn't it?
Yeh, no Khmer leaders does better than Sihanouk in the 20th & 21th century, because Sihanouk attacked and killed them all. All pro-Westerner, and Pro-Europe. That's communist mindset!
My answer to 12:48 pm,First of all it is laughable to believe that Vietnam would return any piece of land back to Cambodia if they win the war and Sihanouk himself might be well aware of that,was it true what Sihanouk did is in hope of getting back some piece of land back from Vietnam?I don't know,but this is base on the allegation of his critics,that why I stated in my comment that "If what was claimed was right".Secondly,Yes Sihanouk should had raised,trained and equipped Cambodian arm force to resist the Vietnamese but doing so it means Sihanouk is taking Cambodia to war,he never want his nation involve with the neighbor war,instead he might had lent Cambodian territory to North Vietnam so they can kill each other and at the same used the NV to shield the border so the war won't spread deeper into Cambodia.I also stated that raising and modernizing the army against the NV had no effective and Sihanouk might already knew that,Lon Nol had proved that.I also stated that the NV will had used the Cambodian sanctuaries with or without Sihanouk approval,don't you think?You may say no they can not base on international law,well the VN was fighting against the UN forces back then,did you know?and thus the NV has no one to afraid of anymore.And yes the VN can and capable to fight 3 front back then,as the matter of fact they did,Lon Nol had launched a failed attack with them,did you know that??that's call a war too,but did it stop the VN from using Cambodian territory as their sanctuaries?no,did you Know that?last of all what I stated in my comments previously is only my personal analysis and what I thought would be the best option for Cambodia back then to stay out of the war and let the Vietnamese kill each other as we Khmer always wish for and yes what I think Sihanouk had play his card pretty good.I suggest that you read my previous comment again before making any comment,I thought my comment was plain and simle to understand.And now I'd like to ask you,What would you do if you were Sihanouk back then???
12:56pm,..." .Sihanouk could not sit and watch Lon Nol destroy Cambodia any longer,he chose the only option available at the time,he aligned himself with the KR in hope to save Cambodia"
Very funny!
But he sat and watch Pol Pol destroyed Cambodia.
So what's your excuse for him?
"Vietnam had the excuse to invade Cambodia in the name of Saving Cambodia in hope that they can fulfill Ho chi Minh dream plan,Their ambitious plan also failed because of Sihanouk return"
12:56 PM,
Are you out of your mine Re. Ho Chi Minch plan failed because Sihanouk returned? If Sihanouk was that good, why didn't he take all the powers from Ah Hun Shit, why he runs around like a monkey?
"Base on the fact,Khmer people has every reason to love,care and respect King Sihanouk"
Too much love, care and respect for this King, that's why Ah Hun Shit keep taking advantage out of this, and Cambodian territories keep shrinking, because Khmer people never know about the facts.
He can't even die in Cambodia, and you called him a hero? Wake-up! stop being brain-washed.
Yeh, no Khmer leaders does better than Sihanouk in the 20th & 21th century, because Sihanouk attacked and killed them all. All pro-Westerner, and Pro-Europe. That's communist mindset!
And your comment is called Niyeay Yok Chneas by not doing any analysis.If what you had stated in your comment above is true,Lon Nol,Sarimatak,Cheng Heng and many other politicians would not have a chance to overthrow Sihanouk,don't you think?and who were the leader in your mind that Sihanouk had killed,can you name me one??I think that what you had know is totally base on the history book which I also did read but you has lack the capacity,ability and the knowledge to analyze of what cause and why It happened in that book.you put yourself as a reader,a learner and a believer of that book instead of putting yourself as a judge.Moreover you had not or unable to answer to my question of What would you do back then if you were Sihanouk?I assumed that you are just someone who is good at criticizing at others ,someone who just sit,watch and criticize at someone works and mistakes but you has no ability or capacity to performed any important duties.Neak Tver jam te Khos,Neak niyeay jam te trov.Action speaks louder than words my friend.Tver min ngeay doch tha te...If you think you are well educated you should employ yourself to help Cambodia,otherwise,get yourself educated to hel your country.
137pm, "...Yes Sihanouk should had raised,trained and equipped Cambodian arm force to resist the Vietnamese but doing so it means Sihanouk is taking Cambodia to war,he never want his nation involve with the neighbor war..."
So keeping Khmer weak in the best solution? Why are you against strong Khmer army? If you're Khmer and I assume you are, won't that comes in handy when someone is attacking our nation? You can't run forever from war. Sometime you have to stand your ground and fight for your country.
I mean Thailand and Vietnam are building their forces like crazy while Cambodia is not. Why not?
History told us that we lost lands to the Thais and Vietnamese because our army became weak. Should Sihanouk, as a leader, at least aware of that?
What's the point of being King if you cannot and won't make your country strong to protect the nation from warring neighbors?
If war with the Vietnamese is inevitable, should we at least be prepared for that?
The Vietnamese are strong; but in your opinion we just let them roll over us because anything else would mean war for us.
1:51 pm The more you write your comment the low educated you show me.By thae way,are you in Cambodia now?if not then you have no say of where Sihanouk should die,and do you know why Sihanouk die in Peking?And yes I am right that without Sihanouk Youn might be still in Cambodia by now<if not him who had lobbied the world to pressure the Vietnamese out of Cambodia?I'm sure it was not you.
and yes I am right again base on a recent evident that the majority of Cambodian still has the love,care and respect for Sihanouk except a handful of Khmers who did not and those Khmer might be from the families who overthrew him,are you?if you are one of them then your family who had destroy Cambodia.To be honest with you I am not a fan of Sihanouk and what/however happened to/with Sihanouk is none of my business and will not effect my US life one bit but I only want to point out my own political observation,my own perception and my own analysis toward Sihanouk political maneuver and his past decision for Cambodia,and if I am one of his supporter I won't be hesitated but will be proud to tell the world that.I suggest that you stop placing such comment as it may undermine our Khmer credibility and dignity until you get yourself properly educated..
But he sat and watch Pol Pol destroyed Cambodia.
So what's your excuse for him?
1:50 PM your question and comment is getting way out of a proportion,didn't you know that Sihanouk was under house arrest after the KR took power?what can a prisoner do?you tell me?can you ask me some reasonable question,a child can tell you why on this one question,you are funny and laughable.
and my answer to 2:27 PM I already stated that answer in my previous comment,didn't you understand?well I can give you a brief detail on question.Yes I am Khmer and Yes I want khmer arm force to be the strongest on the region or like Israel arm force but to do that We need billion of dollars,are we rich?back then Cambodia has about 6.5 million people and most of which are poor farmers,we can not arm race with our bigger and richer neighbor,but no we are not just sit and let them walk all over us,that's why I had the assumption that what Sihanouk had done might be his policy to keep the war from spreading deeper into Cambodia,and doing so might be the best option other than fighting a losing war.And we didn't need to fight that war anyway,so just let the Viet kill each other,I repeated myself again.And what ever Sihanouk had decided he probably never thought that American would had left Vietnam that soon and he thought The Viet will be killing each other for much longer.

To: 3:06 PM,
After reading your comments/arguments for Sihanouk I am baffled by the shallow facts you have attested to be the truth. Please, for the argument sake, do a little more research on several facets of Sihnouk actions. Do them separately, eg: Economic policy, international relations, his father-son relationship to Chou En lai and Li shao qui. On internal affairs, politicl dissent suppression, the killing of the the Democratic leaders, the Sihanouk Trails, the unity with the Khmer Rouge, the confession of the late Prince Norin Drapong younger brother of the current King, who was also in a so called Khmer Rouge prison with Sihanouk. After you researched all of this and you still a die hard Sihanoukist !!!! more power to you and your god king.
I write to you because I read the books, I write it from the chapters of my family history, who had been, for three generations fought the French, the Japanese, the NVA, the Khmer Rouge to protect Cambodia, real life real blood spilled for Khmer, never once sided with anyone fought foreign invaders and occupiers.
3:06pm,
"...didn't you know that Sihanouk was under house arrest after the KR took power?what can a prisoner do?you tell me?can you ask me some reasonable question,a child can tell you why on this one question,you are funny and laughable."
Yes, it's a sad story that the god-king Sihanouk got played by a bunch of KR cadres. How dare they treat the king this way after he did everything for them?
You seems to come up with all the excuses for the king from accepting his responsibility for his policies.
Did Sihanouk know that KR is a communist movement? and while he was the head of state, his policy was to eliminate them? By the way, it was him that coined the word "Khmer Rouge".
More importantly, didn't he know that monarchy and communism don't mix? So it's not a surprise for me that they put him in house arrest. What surprises me is that Sihanouk believed them in the first place.
Like you said, even a child can tell you that a king cannot rule a communist country, ever.
To 10:30 pm,I am not a Sihanoukist,I only lived for 5 yrs as a child under his rule,and I had never wanted to live under his rule again because I'm spoiled to the US democratic system and liberty.However,my parent had live under his rule for some decades before immigrated to the US.My parent had never tell me of their lives experiences under Sihanouk's rule.I am only an ordinary person who love to learn. read and listen to the politic and Its analysis.I had not mentioned that I am a Sihanoukist nor I had claimed my comments is right.I had stated that what I stated is based on my personal observation and my analysis base on the then situation in Cambodia and Indochina as a whole.I also would like you to understand that,when I read the book,I do not put my self as a learner,a reader or a believer but I put myself as a judge and the book to me is just a piece of a report card which is written by someone,I never believed what is written in the history book before I had made my own analysis and judgement,especially in Sihanouk's case.
To 12:28 am,you should have known that Sihanouk is not someone who is easily have any trust or believe in someone but himself,what made you think that Sihanouk had believed or trusted the KR,what he did I think that was the only choice and option available to him at the time.Sihanouk had never thought that KR communist would never become that bad,he could not predict of what was going to happen if the KR take power.Soviet union and its bloc and China are communist but they did not rule their country the way the KR did,It's something that was way beyond Sihanouk's expectation.What I am try to point out and trying to find out here is what would be best for Sihanouk to steer Cambodia to avoid or to minimize the possibility of getting into the neighbor conflict.You should know that everywhere in the world It's very hard to stay away from the conflict when that conflict is happening at your neighbor hood.Some Africa country conflict and civil war had caused Its neighbors security and caused some of Its neighbor involvement as well.Look at the current conflict in the middle east nowadays,Syria as a good example,It has effected Turkey national security and their people lives.Turkey was asking Its allies to support Its cause in responding to Syria aggression.This how the war can cause in this world.And It's the policy of those country who are next to the war wage country to steer their country into which direction.Many world leaders had made bad decision,Bill Clinton took America to Iraq war in search of weapon of mass destruction base on the fault report from Its CIA but had found very little evidences after billion of dollars and hundreds of his men lives and consequently he had brought America's economy into a lowest point in decades,and yet America had also dragged Its allies into that war as well,what did America and Its allies accomplished in Iraq war?America had involved in the Vietnam war with uncertain future as well,what did they accomplished in Vietnam war??What am I trying to point out is that every leader had and will made/make a bad decision not only Sihanouk,the only different is for poor country to make a bad decision it will get a harsh consequences unlike the rich country the worst consequences for them is the negative impact to their economy.Sihanouk is no different and is no better than any other world leaders,he will and had made bad decision,again that was his only option available to him at the time base on my personal observation and my own analysis.Once again,what Sihanouk did and how the outcome was did not changed or wasted much of my childhood life back then and yes it did had an effect to my family life as everyone else,and thus I'd like to find out who is telling the truth and who is exaggerating the stories and what is laying behind or underneath of the truth or in those history books.I also has no reason to protect Sihanouk from all those allegations since he had never honored any peace or happiness to me in my childhood,but I only want to analyze of what happened,what should happened and what would had happened with or without Sihanouk in a fair way base on the situation in Cambodia back then.And what I strongly believed is that,without America & Lon Nol there will be no KR and with or without Sihanouk involvement there would be still KR because the public did not support the Coup d'Etat.What would you have had done if you were Sihanouk back then is still my question to ask????
Uncle Ho Chi Minh is smarter than 5th grader.
1/2 DEAD
To: 3:18 AM
My answer to you is simple, if Chou en lai is your god father what would you do???????.
Do research on the time when the Geneva Conference was held, The Non alignning nations Conference in Bandung and subsequence foreign policy of Sihanouk. afew days after the coup, prince Norodom Kantol, Sihanouk's uncle lead a delagation to plead with Sihanouk to stay in France and to allow the khmer government to deal with the NVA in Cambodia but Sihanouk was hell bend in revenge on the khmer people especially those who critical of him.
Just that alone will tell you about Sihanouk, you do not have to look else where.
One piece of history you might not get to read any where but I will tell you any way. At 13 years old I quit school and joined the Khmer army, they did not have any gun so they gave three grenades to go war with the NVA, I am very lucky to have survived but nver forget the blood of khmer shed.
3:18am, what's your obsession with this fictional role of being in Sihanouk'shoes?
You played too much into "what if" scenario that you actually convinced yourself into believing in events that you've no control over nor way of knowing.
For example, you said, "...what made you think that Sihanouk had believed or trusted the KR,what he did I think that was the only choice and option available to him at the time..". Is accepting to be the head of KR not enough for you? and it was also his choice to say no to the KR. How do you know what went inside Sihanouk's head that answering yes was the only option?
Talks are cheap but Sihanouk's deeds or lack thereof are what being scrutinized here. What he did came into conclusion when the Vietnamese finally conquered Cambodia in 1979.
3:18am, "..And what I strongly believed is that,without America & Lon Nol there will be no KR and with or without Sihanouk involvement there would be still KR because the public did not support the Coup d'Etat."
Please read Khmer's history again especially when Sihanouk was a Cambodia's head of state. If you have time, expand your selection to include also the VN war from Vietnamese's perspective.
"1:51 pm The more you write your comment the low educated you show me.By thae way,are you in Cambodia now?if not then you have no say of where Sihanouk should die"
2:39 PM,
Are you out of your mine! The way you understand my comment, it's means your education is worst than mine.
You know why? Because you can't even understand what I'm writing about Sihanouk.
When I said "Sihanouk can't even die in Cambodia" because of all his horrible crime he did against his own people, and it doesn't mean "I said where he should die"
You need more education than me, a lot more education, because you can't even understand what I'm writing, maybe you can't even read Khmer
"Cambodian still has the love,care and respect for Sihanouk except a handful of Khmers who did not and those Khmer might be from the families who overthrew him"
A lot of Cambodian families would to like to overthrow Sihanouk, you know why? Because back in 1960s, he never let Khmer people study English nor let you come to America either, any Pro-Westerner will be chop suy.
But that's was not the case he was overthrown. It's his cooporation with the communist without any approval from the Senates or Generals as I stated earlier.
If my comments still cannot convice you Re. Sihanouk reign of terror, Go to Youtube video about why he joined the Khmer Rough. It's more prove than your imaginations.
foreign policy of Sihanouk. afew days after the coup, prince Norodom Kantol, Sihanouk's uncle lead a delagation to plead with Sihanouk to stay in France and to allow the khmer government to deal with the NVA in Cambodia but Sihanouk was hell bend in revenge on the khmer people especially those who critical of him.OH WOW...big deal,Well didn't Lon Nol had full 5 yrs to deal with NVN.??and that was then Cambodia had gone into full scale war,well did the Khmer Republic had made any progress for Cambodia??You had known better than me.They failed misery,didn't they?,,
One piece of history you might not get to read any where but I will tell you any way. At 13 years old I quit school and joined the Khmer army, they did not have any gun so they gave three grenades to go war with the NVA, I am very lucky to have survived but nver forget the blood of khmer shed.You comment on this part sound like you did not know anything,Why..America had poured in all types of military hardware along with military advisers and financial support,why you as his army only had 3 grenades to fight against the NV & VC and you should have had known that just what you had can not match with NV & VC and you people still did it anyway??that was not very smart.As a matter of fact Cambodia still owe America from the Lon Nol era debt,did you know that?and did you know what was that debt for??Your comment is laughable and you want me to do the research to what you claimed??Most importantly,do you really think that without Sihanouk KR will not win the war??I tell you what my friend,with or without Sihanouk involvement,the Khmer Republic would had been still failed because Lon Nol never had any support from the public and with no supports from the public no country can win any war,correct?Did you also know that Sihanouk was over thrown by a hand full of his own generals which had never had public support??.Moreover,Lon Nol regime was so corrupted,you were one of his men should had known that was your salary regular paid for??If your Khmer Republic was really a Khmer patriot and want Cambodia to be in a better position than It was under Sihanouk the Killing Field would never had happened,don't you think??Unfortunately,the Khmer Republic was so ineffective,They lose the way to a handful of KR who only fight with AK47 against Lon Nol arm force that had all kind of support weapons including air forces.And you think Sihanouk was a nuclear bomb which had caused your men to lose that war???come on,be realistic here.You are the one who need to do research ..lol..you are very funny my friend..accept your weakness,stop blaming on Sihanouk as a reason you people lose the war..
to 7:14 AM,You learned and believe history from Youtube??lol,It's again you are laughable,I did not understand what you were writing about??you got to be kidding me,You didn't even know why Sihanouk died in China from what you had stated,no It's not because what you had claimed in your previous comment of why Sihanouk was not in Cambodia when he passed away.I need more education huh??hhmmm I will think about it,maybe I do ..lolz
"to 7:14 AM,You learned and believe history from Youtube??lol,It's again you are laughable.."
7:58 AM,
Tell me what does US Court used for evidence to prove guilty, is it pictures, videos, or just some article that you learned from school? Remember this not Cambodia!
"You didn't even know why Sihanouk died in China from what you had stated,no It's not because what you had claimed in your previous comment of why Sihanouk was not in Cambodia when he passed away.."
What is this, is there any some of my comment that you wrote above?
Again, in order to prove, you have to copy my comment just like I did above. Don't just write whatever you want to write and tell me that's my comments. Again, this is not Cambodia.
So now, you proved to me that you're the most flip flop, lowest educated person just like your father Ah King Kong Sihanouk.
7:58 AM, don't mean to insult you..
Correction:
Your beloved leader-Ah King Kong Sihanouk.
to 10:16 am,Your beloved leader-Ah King Kong Sihanouk.You finally show who you are and what is your class and level of your education,look at your educated language.He can't even die in Cambodia, and you called him a hero? Wake-up! stop being brain-washed.When I said "Sihanouk can't even die in Cambodia" because of all his horrible crime he did against his own people, and it doesn't mean "I said where he should die"If these are not your comments,I apology..
Yes the court in the US will use video as evidences if that video had not been reproduced and or directed,Time frame in video will prove how accurate the video and if it can be a useful evidences.How about your video?it just like a movies,I've seen those video numerous time and It's really up to you or an individual to believe what is in the video or not.I used my own research and other political analyst's analysis beside reading those book and watching those movies before I made my own opinion,perception and judgement.And last of all I'd like to tell you that It's very hard to find a perfect politician like you in this world,you should return to Cambodia and use your political know how to help you birth place,not criticizing other leader in her,it won't do any good for your bright idea for Cambodia.And yes try to stop using your low class languages as It can tell people where your education level is.Honestly you do know a lot about Khmer history,the only problem with you is you has no capacity and/or ability to analyze what is written in the history book.Instead you only go by what is written in the book and what other people told you.The old Khmer saying go,"IF YOU ARE NOT A DOG DON'T BARK" and the other one go"NEAK TVER CHAM TE KHOS CHAMNEK NEAK THA CHAM TE TROV" Have you ever heard of those saying??and yes you keep saying that Sihanouk is my god king,did you read my comment thoroughly ??
12:29 PM,
You can't even see where you came from, you said I'm using low class languages? What about the words like "lol" or "lolz". Is that high class languages?
Don't fool me, I know where are those languages came from.
Did I ever mention Sihanouk is your god king or just your beloved leader? Also, I don't have movies in Youtube videos, those videos were made by well renowned companies to preserve history.
Stop changing the subjects, it's only works for you, nobody else.
"Instead you only go by what is written in the book and what other people told you.."
Above comments fit you good as to your character. I'm not convince, unless I got proved from people who told me, because I'm more educated than you.
to 1:23 PM ...lol & lols is a low class word??do you even have any idea what LOL means?yes you are more educated by the Khmer school along the border that I never had.You should ask your kid what LOL means first before you argue with me and call that word as a low class word...lol you are very funny..
"Your beloved leader-Ah King Kong Sihanouk"did you write this phrase??that's right,I know what I am talking about my friend.បើល្ងង់កុំចង់ធ្វើចេះបើអត់តម្រេះត្រូវចេះស្ដាប់គេផង។ខ្លួនល្អង់មិនខំរៀនសូត្រជឿគេរហូតដូចអត់ខួរក្បាល។ល្ងង់ទេតែធ្វើឬកហំរៀនមិនខំដើរចូលតែបា។ការងារមិនព្រមធ្វើចូលទៀមកាហេ្វប្រាជរឿងនិយោបាយ។មកដល់ស្រុកគេហើយនៅបណ្ដេលខ្លួនឲ្យនៅបែបនឹងទៀតបណ្ដាលឲ្យអាប់កិត្តយសដល់ជាតិខ្មែរអស់។
2:15 AM,
"lol"& "lolz" are not in American dictionary, only gangsters use this kind of words, I'm I right?
I'm 46yrs. my education is better than you. You call me dumb but act smart, you're wrong my brother. You're the one that act smarth, but actually you're dumb and can't understand what people wrote.
Did I ever told my comment @ 1:23 PM, is not mine? You can't even understand my writing and you try to tell you're smarther than me?
Talk tough is nothing, because you can't even understand shit, except kept changing the subjects.
You need to take a look at your comments again, how many people agreed with you? So those Khmer writing fit you better..., not me.
2:15 AM,you are 46 yrs old?lol..only those who are 46 yrs like you who can read and write but has brain to think can not understand what am I talking about,You tried to look for LOL in dictionary?LOL...and LOL is a gang word..?sir you don't know nothing,you are not good enough to talk about politic,You should learning from what the word politic mean to you first then you can start learn how to analyze politic.By the way did you ask your kids what is LOL mean?ask them what LOL means first before you respond back to me so you don't make yourself look any more stupid than how you are know.You earn your degree at the refugee camp,right??LOLs.....your english is pretty good though I'm proud of you..
