In Praise of Humour...



One of the world's most iconic landmarks has been mistaken for a spying tower by one of the world's most despotic madmen of our time



Samdach Hun Sen pays a state visit to France and he's given a VIP guided tour of Paris. He's conducted round the splendours of the Élysée Palace, but remains as stony-faced as ever. He's shown the masterpieces of the Louvre, but the curators fail to get any reaction out of him. He's taken to the Arc de Triomphe, but displays not the slightest interest. Eventually, the official motorcade drives him to the foot of the Eiffel Tower, where Samdach Hun Sen finally stares up in amazement and astonishment. He turns to his French hosts and asks in bewilderment: "But, Paris is a city of 9 million people... surely you need more than one watchtower?"

'Look here, Madame Kat.. katti... Bunny Bunny Rabbit...whatever... don't be silly like that hubby of yours; en France the People keep a watch on their rulers, NOT the other way around!!

Samdach Hun Sen decides to go out one day and see what it's really like for the people, so he puts on a disguise and sneaks out of his Phnom Penh residence. After a while he wanders into a cinema. When the film has finished, the National Anthem plays and a huge picture of Samdach Hun Sen appears on the screen. Everyone stands up and begins singing, except Samdach Hun Sen, who smugly remains seated. A minute later a man behind him leans forwards and whispers in his ear: "Listen friend, we all feel exactly the same way you do, but trust me, it's a lot safer if you just stand up."

Dear School of Vice,

I am here because of little bunnies. They look so cute. Because of them, I read your post! And I love it! More like School of Vice. I would never thought of this funny piece. Love the second one a lot. I could visualize Hun Sen through this short and cute narration.

Dear School of Vice,

But I love bunnies. I used to buy a cage for bunnies. Got the cage home,then will get bunnies later, but my dad didn't allow. So I have the cage with no bunnies, back then :) No I don't want any Bun Ranny in my cage!

Dear Dear School of Vice,
Thank you not to honor him Hun Sen and his wife on our site. It is not our goal. Thank you for your understanding.
