Hero of Hypocrisy

Hero of Hypocrisy
By Kok Sap

A man known for lack of moral and personal duty; a man known for sinful and unbecoming characters, a man known for conspiracy, a man known as unfit father, a man known as a sex slave, a man known as an absolute killer, a man known as demagogue, and a man known as categorically unfit Buddhist. Whenever Cambodia faced crisis a known man packed and ran off, as usual and never failed. That was his irreplaceable record.

This man violated 1954 Geneva Conference of his own declared non-aligned and Neutrality. In 50's amidst rage and demand from populace for pluralism, this man aspired to Marxism and Absolutism. Out of self absorbance, all political parties were demonized and outmaneuvered with rigged elections. Opponents and foes of ideology were ordered to be accidentally killed.

In 60's this man instigated students to burn down US embassy then severed relation. Also this man sabotaged the Council of Throne form its constitutional duty to select king other than his own incompetent parents. This man was behind all political killings included public execution of young outspoken critics. This man plundered treasury and fragile peace in allowing enemies to stay in territory in spite of UN condition. This man let US bombardment and Viet Cong to recruit Khmer rebels as his army.

In 70's this man pledged to uphold Ho Chi Minh endeavor at the expense of Cambodia. This man nearly wiped out 1/3 of population as personal revenge. At UN, this man unrelentingly spoke in defend of Khmer Rouge then became its nominal President throughout 80 period. This man cheated refugees to fight and die in his disingenuous endeavor. This man hand picked his unfit son to be Lord of beaten and hopeless refugees in exchange for family power.

In 90's this man subjugated UN to reinstate his despot monarchy. This man violated public trust and UN accord in decreeing illegal election and government of dictators. This man did coerce people to accept illegal coup and government treaties. This man was instrumental in violation all UN conditions.

In new millennium this man hand picked his half Khmer and raised by dictator of doomed Czchek Republic as heir to the desecrated throne. This man faked death and illness to gain sympathy while facilitating illegal treaties to benefit Viet Nam and its lackey. This man stroked and instigated people with his nonsense Supreme Border Council to be arrested in speaking up against his already consented treaties. This man was and is the prime UN habitual violator since the 50'™ up to this second.

Now this man wanted people to honor him as the sole hero of Cambodia before his real death. This man declared retirement but still taunts Khmer people and nation. He would curse anyone in his way. He would lick infidel feet as long as he got his way. There will he come again in May 2006 and his name is Sihanouk, the Cambodia Formidable Hero of Hypocrisy of Century.

People oh my dear poor people ,you must come out en mass to demand his apology and show outrage before he and his crony can step off the plane in his return in May. In his short coming I would say, Hell to the Chief and His!

UN's Not Sincere Intent Infringed Cambodia Territorial Sovereignty

UN's Not Sincere Intent Infringed Cambodia Territorial
Sovereignty

message: For the past 50 years, Cambodia membership seat at UN shifted
from one regime to another. Each shift affected Cambodia ability in
defense or security and self respect. Post colonial rule, the 1954 Geneva
Conference, the 1973 US Cold War Domino Accord, and then the latest
1991 Paris Accord entrapped Cambodia from raising its army at its own
prerogative. Every Accord signed between Cambodia and other signatory
nations, it never failed its framed perimeter to lock in Cambodia ability in
own defense. The same infringement applied on past and current regime
not to raise army beyond UN's wrath. This appears bias and odd in UN
conducts since France put a curse on Cambodia self liberation in 1954.
Why this happening to and only Cambodia?  Why Cambodia leaders allowed
UN from granting the same right as its neighbors?  

The neighboring Thailand is not only exceptional but permissible to
increase its army at will. From late 1800 it seemed at ease since it had
gotten much from Napoleonic France in one big shot deal accord to annex
Khmer land and people. After UN creation it was not only a privileged
ally of SEATO but exclusive bilaterally US military ally in case of
emergency. During the same time, France legally acknowledged on papers but
it went ahead with its arbitrarily cessation of Khmer land to Viet Nam
control in shielding its humiliated defeat in Dien Bien Phu. Not only
that Viet Nam can raise its army as the fifth largest in the world with
plenty of aids from former USSR, China, and US whom all are the UN
principal conductors. No question from UN Permanent Security Council.

To clear Viet Minh from Cambodia after 1954 Geneva Conference if it
wasn't for the militias his regime ever lasted until 1970. Meanwhile
Viet Minh avenged him by agitating the rebels in Samlaut-Wai Chap to hold
his regime hostage once again in late 60's. Again if it wasn't for
the militias Battambang would have been ceded to rebels since. In 1970,
at Sihanouk premeditated intent, Cambodia had lesser than ten thousands
old and poor equipped army to fight hundreds of thousand well trained
and equipped Viet Cong plus South Viet Nam disguised infiltrators.  From
all these, former and present rulers never learned from such fatal and
suicidal mistake in the 60-70's when push comes to shove with
neighbors.

Lok Soth Polin's Ligne de Brevie piece in Angkorborei News invokes
our deep thoughts in witnessing Cambodia leadership habitual introvert
and passive aggression demeanor via internal bickering. Lessons learned
from his views while Cambodia leaders preoccupied with their ill
endeavors, foxy France ceded our rightful ownership to Yuon or Siam or Lao
without a flinch to our nationalists protest. Undeniably we were our own
worst enemies. Other hand French or neighbors seemed to know Khmer
leadership especially monarchy plus the surrounding elite's intellect and
weakness very well then. They disrespected us, Khmers, profanely.

From this and evermore, Cambodia may have to learn to be extrovert,
self assured demand and respect through its national discipline, and
strong governance morality to oblige UN or others respect. Naturally as a
person, one must be physically and mentally fit to confront obstacle so
does the government. But now let us put personal alignment of belief and
politic aside for a moment and try to search self deep reflection
why do we have to struggle for so long to be respected Let's search
for alternative that each of us can do in part to help redeeming self
respect and dignity for our nation.

worrying about the stability in Cambodia nowadays

I am one of many cambodian american living in the United State who are worrying about the stability in Cambodia nowadays. I believe that the government which is backed by Vietnamese Government, nowadays are trying to convert the democratic country into Communism or Socialization as Vietname or Burma. Rich and Powerful people, they are never worry about the poor people who are dying because of poverty. As you can see now, many arrests of the human rights and opposition party leaders have been made in favor to the head of the government and to destroy the democracy. They, Cambodian government, said that Cambodia is democratic country and have many opposition parties but if the leader of the opposition party get a lot of supports, they will arrested that leader so that leader will not stand a chance to get the vote in the next election.

For the last 5 years, i have seen the improvement of human right in Cambodia but for the last 4 weeks, that improvement are back down till zero. People have no rights to express their opinion anymore. In Cambodia, we have a lot of high educated people who recieved the education from abroad such as United State, Japan, Australia, France or England, but those people dare not say anything which impact to the government or they will be put in JAIL. I can not believe that my country ( CAMBODIA) now have the Politic prisoners just like 1980 till 1990.

I hope that the donor countries such as Japane, USA, or other NGOs should give some restrictions to Cambodian goverment to respect human right. Because Cambodian government nowadays can live because of 400 to 500 millions dollars donation each year, so the leader of the government will take some words from all donor countries.

Please take this into consideration.
Thank you.

As we all remembered

As we all remembered, In 5 and 6 July 1997, when the coup led by Prime MInister Hun Sen against Prince Ranarith. Prince Ranarith run to get help and support from all over the world especially the United State of America because he believe that only USA have to power to pressure the KHmer government and can help him get some power back. But right now when America government try to find justice for those who are unfairly jailed by the government, Prince Ranarith said that America government is invading the internal affair or intergrety of the Cambodian Government.

Anyone know why?? because Prince Ranarith is a person who think only MONEY and POWER. he never thought about democracy or the right of people at all. He is willing to do anything just for the MONEY and POWER, oh one more " YOUNG girl " .

He is now trying to collape the opposition party leader, Mr. Sam Rainsy and the International Republic Institute IRI leader, Mr. Kem Sokha because he believe that if those people are still have VOICE to talk, Prince Ranarith will have no more VOTEs from the people in the next election year 2008.

Thank you so much for reading.

Cambodia Democracy is Dictatorship

Cambodia Democracy is Dictatorship
By Kok Sap

For the last 40 years, Democracy in Cambodia is oddly unique. Because of that a few internal instabilities and conflicts broke out. Government head does not heed the legislative but it is his way or revolution. The head of state rests in the so called constitutional monarch who is merely a rubberstamp of the government head. Government keeps same and incompetent people in the same executive position forever. That encourages troubles and autocracy. In sum Cambodia is still a single party government, which it is, not much different than China or North Korea or Cuba.

Now Cambodia is still the dog eats dog society even after its neo imperialistic and colonial eating dog rein was condemned and completely withdrawn in 1993. Actually Cambodia Democracy is fit with more of the autocracy. Only party top dog can be qualified for Prime Minister Job. Better yet being Prime Minister is absolute and untouchable. Voters can NOT say or criticize his policy publicly. It is a criminal act. People of Cambodia are still living in the dark-age and fear of the powerful.

Obvious example of Cambodia democracy false pretense is in its current Senatorial election. The law disallows popular vote for the upper house of legislature. It serves purpose of special group manipulation and intimidation rather than nation interest. All candidates will be chosen by particular special interest group, party, or institution. This is a strange form of democracy that usually use in communist regime. The individuality is more inclined to protect own group interest more than country. This made a mockery out of real democracy.

In order to catch up with real time democracy, Cambodia needs to reform its Constitution reflected term limitation with pluralism and popular mandate in election laws. Also, the veto power must be added in to keep balance and check in government. The legislative vote now based on hand signifying which lacks of privacy. This is a flaw in freedom of expression. All votes ought to be conducted confidentially and privately with respect of individual rights of expression not by group coercion. The present Constitution needs to put it to test in people confidence and scrutiny. Of course that can be done in referendum vote once in every decade or two to ensure national stability and peace.

Currently Cambodia laws give too much elbow room for dictatorship to cling on to power. That is too dangerous for stability and peace in the region. Therefore Cambodia needs a change once again for sure.

Sad Day for The Cambodians Freedom of Democracy!

Sad Day for The Cambodians Freedom of Democracy!

We, the Cambodians are very disapointed the way the communist hun sen- the slave of the sihanouk-vietcong, momnique leaches, that played the roll of the unrest, and violation of its own constitutions..it seems to me that there will be some shaking under ground in order to defeat all these puppets. The leader who runs Cambodia today is the former Khmer rouge leader comrad- hun sen and the CPP party. Those people who had been the khmer rouge since the 60's. the reason that the vietcong let hun sen did that because the vietcong knew that there is a chance for them to steal the khmer land and on the other land khmer who live in Cambodia today almost 70% are youger than 25 years of age, and they know nothing about this Radical Regime, the regime of horror- (the pol pot- salot sar, sihanouk- the slave king, chea sim, heng samrin, noun chea, hou nim-hou yuon, sar kheng, khiev sam phorn, Ieng sary, hun sen, ta mok..and their khmer Rouge comrads), and the older cambodians most of them are women.

All the khmer rouge leaders, the communist soldiers, now became the leader of the country, provinces, ctities, town, and villeges. Today the poor Cambodians have only freedom of religion, which is to manipulate the innocent Cambodians, the UN, and the world. These religions also belong to the communist government, and the hun sen goverment is run indirect support by the communist Vietnam-vietcong. Let must don't forget, before the former khmer rouge used the poor Cambodians as a Radical Social Experiments, which was watched, and ran by the chinese that led to almost four millions Cambodians lost their lifes. Now these Communist khmer rouge changed their new faces, new leaders, and used the poor innocents cambodians as their economical purposes( money), for its bosses and their pockets. The funds from the US and the UN is " DEAD"; never get into the poor Cambodians, instead its went to the individual's pocket of the Communist leaders. Hun sen, chea sim, heng samrin, and their governments got hundreds of millions! , and mi llions of dollars by selling the country and the innocents' lands, sell the cambodian border, the old growth forests( big woods), that had been there more than two thousands years old. To use the full meaning of these crimes in the American word mean " Treason ". Last but not least, we, the Cabodians wanted the US/UN to help in response to the trail of those innocents, and the unrest, our khmer should exercise our freedom in peaceful-protest against the communist leaders that they committed the crime against humanity in the past as well as recently. Otherwise, it will haunt forever. So please do this for the world, and protect the little people like Cambodians!

......Thanks the CIC.

Wish CIC be prospered for the coming year, 2006

I would like to wish CIC ( Cambodian Information Center) be prospered for the coming year, 2006.

I have been so glad that CIC has provided a unique website which allows an individual to express his or her opinion without fear of prosecution. One can express his or her view with respect without fear of intimidation.

In addition, we(I) try to respect others as much as I can for the effort that one has made. Of course, an individual sometimes, out of focus and ignorant, and moreover, he or she can be very personal or very argumentatively or even very opinionated, however; that's what the democracy all about. That's what freedom of expression and free press all about.

Furthermore, we can learn a lot from our friends whether the inform information by facts or by opinions. Especially, the opinion which full of knowledge that's very well informed.

I personally find that CIC's voice of opinion very interesting. It's all most like a club for sharing the information and expression or even a political frustration. Never the less, I myself usually express my concern regarding Cambodian home land political evil, and I've felt good when I received feeback from our friends, of course some of our friends aren't always kind but I understand that it is our human nature and behavior, and I must respect such reaction.

Last, I want to thank you CIC for allowing us the opportunity to use the site for free for expressing our opinion. I wish more people can be informed about CIC.

Have A Happy New Year, CIC!

2005 ending;but the new beginning of the new unwanted contract Sino-Yuon Federation

December 31, 2005

2005 ending;but the new beginning of the new unwanted contract Sino-Yuon Federation

By Kok Sap

Universally people of all colors cheer the arrival of 2006 with Champagne, good novelties, specialty food and romantic indulgence to loved ones. I look back and recollect the Government of Cambodian principally manned by Cambodian People's Party year long achievements. Not too many that inspired my urge to toast a cold glass of ice tea over my rice soup of new crop from Thailand, regrettably not Cambodia, with sauté trey kess and prohok kreung aing tomorrow early dawn.

All and all the Supplemental Treaty, recently signed by Prime Minister Hun Sen arbitrarily, was dominating my thought process throughout times. Even though, there were many other things that had crunched my heart too. I thought 2005 was a starting time for Cambodia another 25 years or more of vassal fifdom of Yuon imperialism.

Congratulations to Mr. Hun Sen for much of achievement to subjugate his national dignity and integrity for a job title filled with unjustifiable vastly wealth as his nation is at the bottom of UN most poor nation list. He has had his hands on Cambodia choke hold for the last 20 years as a renegade DRK cadre to a full time lackey of his ancestral nemesis. Every imaginable thing Mr. Hun Sen had done to Cambodia was not for the welfare of people but his cronies, benefactors, and selective cliques.

Cambodia is a nation full of foreign debts and let live at the charity of others. For two decades under his rule Cambodia has become the most suppressive and abusive nation in the peninsula of Indo-Khmer. He monopolizes and manipulates every branch of government and political party. The next most notable violation is in human rights which categorically are at play until the last second of old year.

Remarkably in 2005, he has held the legislative and head of state hostage to submit the nation under Yuon colonalization even furthermore. Also he halted and stalled the UN initiated tribunal to almost an unrecoverable task at times. The whole nation and judicial system is under his tyrannical grip evermore so. He repeatedly insulted voters and UN that he is irreplaceable and indispensable. Fiercely he has proclaimed he who is the Iron Fist and Strong Man ever lived in Cambodia after the blood thirst Khmer Rouge regime was toppled in 1979.

Thus 2005 was the most significant year that the very tyrant was able to sell out Cambodia effortlessly to its most fearsome violator of centuries. Of course 2005 would be another bygone but not forgettable of Cambodia government suppression and violations of human rights. But let 2006 resolution be the awakening time for those to rise and be responsible for the sake of the nation and its humanity.

Enough 20 years of abuse and contempt, let Cambodia rise for its liberty and justice for all.

CAMDISC FORUM year end note

December 6, 2005
CAMDISC FORUM year end note

Many have actively exchanged information and conversation here for longer and recent time alike seems to aim for ONE thing, an open debate, which is lack in Cambodia. Most spent own time and effort to be as keen and open as possible in sharing or dialogue among aliases without further inquiry of personal information. It is free and open based on mutual respect and understanding. Aliases signed on and off at will. It is an incubator of democracy in its own way. However there seem increasing in unreasonable attacks and personable. Some fell right in the face of libelous and defames classification.

Groups or individuals are supposedly bound by unspoken rules of mere civility at own decency and respect for the rest. But it is troubling not to notice the growing appearance of discord reflected sometimes from passionate views and political motifs.

In CAM-DISC there are several groups of thought with each initiative and goal to find truth and may be social justice for the sake of Cambodia people. The great benefit of objectively debate may encourage further development of Cambodia basic democracy and civility. That in a nut shell is credited to the support and contribution of its sponsors.

Out of brief observation, there are quite few in style. Some seem to allege threats and vendetta due to indifference of view on topical matters. Some seem overreached and overstepped of others due to political views. Some seem to be plain jokes and rift incitation. Some seem to be diplomatic or plain spoken. Some seem to be obsessive in personal exhibitionism and boasts. Some seem to be more disciplined and reasonably journalistic. Some seem to be purely politicos and party junkies. Some seem to be literary and poetic critics. Some seem to be bias and fit with several forms of ism. Some seem to be driven by historical sentiment and conviction. Some seem just to have someone to dialogue with.

But with all, CAM-DISC has provided a small group of self motivated scholars or pundits or simple folks or religious or cult advocates or politicos to have a place to share and speak on subjects. Clinically CAM-DISC provides a closed door consultation and rehabilitative support to the victims and victors alike in healing and reconciliatory process. Without saying it, CAM-DISC has provided vision and guidance for the earnest learners and truth seekers alike.

Now it is time to celebrate the success in tune with Christians or the like year ending holidays, I wish to thank people of CAM-DISC and those who shared and dialogued with sincere courage and passion without holding grudges to help awakening the sleeping and confused minds in here and Cambodia.

May peace and serenity return in full force to our beloved Khamer land and people on earth in time to rid turmoil and distrust forever.

May CAM-DISC be in good spirit and diligence to assist the learning and the teaching for times to come.

May experiences and errors in thus passing year be an exemplary for better choice in coming years to assist people in self-sustaining and reliance.

Happy Holidays and Seasonal Greetings to all

Deja Vu Politic

Deja Vu Politic

By Kok Sap
Victims Voice
Rannaridh is up to no good again as he insinuates reshuffling implied reduction his Party members in his Big Brother Hun Sen Package government of over 300 strong and top qualified personnel, is seriously considered. Is this a pre-view 2008 election psychological intimidation or what? Observers seem to think so.

His Highness, the Prince of Darkness, is seeking Enlightment from the Renaissance Iron Man Lord of the Misery of Cambodge before he will strip his men from current government posts. Exactly is a Machiavellian approach to conquer mind of independent individual who may see the need of nation is above personal greed. Rannaridh has been sleeping in blood and mud for too long and he seems not able to distinguish the smell of blood and toils.

Due to rifts and division in both camps, CPP and FUNCINPEC, amongst top echelons the duet device new plot to capture 2008 election brilliantly. Both are in tune to divide and conquer. They both eliminate dissention and opposition as day goes by. In US and Europe, many of FUNCINPEC loyal followers are awaken and sought out alternative to reduce the growth of dictatorial incline of the duo-politicos.

The Century Iron Man as people dubbed, Hun Sen, is more belligerent than ever as he befriended with Red China that has increased its presence in world economic strength to bully its former adversaries on UN stage. He is arrogantly insulting UN Human Rights Commission in duty to monitor if Cambodia complied its obligatory mandate when signed 1991 Paris Peace Accord. Hun Sen seems to misplace priority as government to serve Viet Nam self imposed agreement over Cambodia sovereignty. He willfully ignores the 1991 Paris Peace Accord totally.

Cambodia is in state of frightening as he increases his suppression and persecution on critics and press. The Prince is no help but stoop up to the Iron Man conveniences. The critics some were able to flee the country and some were unjustly placed in detention for raising unfavorable issues. Both put fear in people hearts and heads as they continue to alienate the outside world outcry.

Cambodia is no longer ruled by democratic government but autocratic clique. This is an outrage. Politicians are no longer exercising self conscience to serve people but masters of the Parties. One time people would die to defend his name and principles but now the Prince of Darkness commits more unethical and immoral deeds than his Big Brother in less than 12 year period. It appears both Hun Sen and Rannaridh are forging a new Party before 2008 election.

People guard your voice with life , this is the 60's deja vu.

Angkor Watt, Angkor Thom, and Others Old Ancients Areas are Cambodian National Treasures

Angkor Watt, Angkor Thom, and others old ancient monuments areas should be set aside by a Nation's government to protect the natural beauty, and others remarkable features.

Those old ancient stone buildings also preserve places of cultural,historical, or scientific interest. In addition, some of its area protect entire environments, such as grassland, or rain forest..etc., and so those can be serve as an important purposes. Because many of them allow us to enjoy and appreciate majestic peaks, sparking lakes surround them, and other seenic wonders.

These Angkor Areas are rich in national wonderlands, famous historical places, and sites for many kinds of outdoor recreations.

Although, the government should set aside all the old Khmer historic areas to preserve them for the benefit and enjoyment of our khmer, and the people around the world.

Now these areas, and others old preserve ancient monuments, especially Angkor Watt as a whole faces a number of challenges.

The governments must deal with pressures to develop its resources that could bring millions in revenue.

Also the government should concern the illegal contract, pollution-especially air, and overcrowded buildings that built close to Angkor Areas. Another concerns include the rights of the people who were the Angkor peoples' original inhabitants. Though, these are the battle grounds, and other features of our Khmer cultural, and historical heritage. All these,because many people around the world are attract by the outstanding features of its individual monuments.

Angkor Watt is famous through out the world, and attracted millions of visitors annually, and some those old preserve buildings are considered world treasures, as well.

On the other hand, the most concern, especially the concern about who benefit from the tourism in and surround Angkor areas, and those benefit have gone to individual government officials who control these Angkor Areas, and large benefits gone to foreign-base corporations. As a result many may oppose the establishment.

Last Angkor Watt, and Its surrounded areas, should belong to Khmer people, and should not owned or illegal contracts by especial interest, and big corperations.

These special interest, and other big corporations destroyed our Khmer Nationa Old Growd( Big Woods ), nibled Khmerlands,polluted the great lake- Tonle Sap, NOW they owned Khmer National Treasures, too!.
