During a recent interview given to the Kampuchea Thmei newspaper about whether the royals should pursue politics or not, Prince Sisowath Thomico said that, in his opinion, the royals should pursue their political life based on whatever mean and method these royals see fit. The prince added: “We know that a royal has the duty to serve the people, if the royals want to continue pursing politics, they should be allowed to participate openly.” However, for himself inside the Funcinpec party, the prince said that he will not present his parliamentary candidacy in any of the provinces. Even though he does not present his candidacy to the parliament, or to any position, the prince said that he still pities and loves his nation, and he will still continue to provide good ideas to our national political leaders in order to develop and bring progress to our nation in the future.
