Cambodia: Once a great nation... now reduced to a stone age

By Anonymous

Cambodia was a country that could achieve great height since it gained independence from France in 1953. Proven fact was during the Sangkum Reastr Niyum regime of King Norodom Sihanouk in the 1960's. Cambodia was one of the most developed country in Southeast Asia. Imagine what Cambodia might be like, if no wars ever set foot in the country. The Vietnam war, Khmer Rouge, Killing Fields, Vietnam's invasion and occupation. These lengthy wars had reduced Cambodia back to the stone age. Now Cambodia is slowly picking herself up. Just when Cambodia is doing that, her enemies are trying to kick her to the ground. As usual, Cambodia is constantly dealing with 2 enemies.

We must never assume that Cambodia never had a chance to have good leaders in the last several decades or so. There were great leaders who could be very capable of leading Cambodia to a better future, however; an external foreign political influences play major roles in seeing Cambodia from running her own course. Pen Sovan was an example of a leader that could be. As we all know, he was too good to be a leader for Cambodia, so he was jailed for 10 years for the love of his nation. So as long as there is an outside political pressure forcing down on Cambodia to make certain political move, it would be very hard for Cambodia to progress at the speed she should. Nevertheless, Cambodia has high spirit and hope. It is hope that gives strength. It is strength that gives determination to free herself. The new generations have much better understanding of their history and politics that shape their country. They will be that strength to drive out what is pulling Cambodia down. They see what their parents and grandparents went through. They want a better future, so they have a duty and obligation to make their dreams into reality. Never give up the fight, even if it was your last breath.

Mike, from the beginning I think you represent the moderate voice of the CPP. The more I read your comments, the more I come to know that you are one of the most spiteful and vindictive persons. You have said nothing concrete lately, but your comments are full of vile and personal attacks against Rainsy.

May I advise you that if you want people to take you seriously, you must criticize Rainy's policy and his politics, not getting personal with him. I can tell you that a person like you won't survive inside the CPP for long, if you still talk the way you attack Rainsy and his supporters. However, since you have been brainwashed by the CPP and Hun Sen and have been hypnotized that the Viet are Cambodia's saviors, you might have just survived for some time. But I advise you to leave personal attacks and concentrate on meaningful and sensible discussions.
