Dear PM Hun Sen
Don't worry about the lotus revolution. We will organize our group to protect you as legitimate Cambodian leader. We are proud of you and we want you to continue to lead our country. Sam Rainsy cannot gain strong support from US either. Khmer in the US wanted stability in Cambodia; we will not allow the stupid lotus revolution to take place. we will lobby US government not to support to stupid guy Sam Rainsy. Election is coming up, US will not involve with any outside conflict. If that person wanted to touch Cambodia, they will loose the presidential election and we will make sure of it. The lotus revolution is a terrorist group, the government should arrest them especially the guy called himself True Khmer. He is a bullshit guy.

Many people said it was impossible to topple Suharto, Mubarak and Gaddafi. Now they fell one by one, so Hun Sen is not immortal, his day will come. No one will live forever and no one will rule forever. Hun sen wanted to build a political dynasty like Mubarak wanting his son to succeed, Gaddafi also groomed his son to succeed, Kim Jong-il of N. Korea has also annointed his son to succeed. And Hun Sen is grooming Hun Manet to succeed him by appointing him to senior positions within the military and by asking him to make public appearances and visiting troops and do charity works. This is a dictator's way to build up a political dynasty.

Anyone uses the word President in Cambodia should listen to the national anthem in the morning for a whole week.Knowing that Khmer always has these kind of Cat-Dog fighting politicians, I wish the King some day would summon these opponent subjects to the throne room and kick their asses in front of a live televised cameras! I know I'm dreaming. King Sihamoni wouldn't treat them that way or he has no real power to do so. If the King read my comment please forgive me Sir b'cause I trespass your authority by kicking your PM and Sam really hard in my dream this morning for not getting along!

i know to those who want a revolution because we hate yuon in our country and the only way to kick them out is to change leaders. i mean keep the yuon at bay but not to kill anyone or to have war but to keep an influx of yuon away from our borders. but any khmer who think to have a revolution just to remove our khmer leaders is an idiots.

As I read comments after comments from many oppinions and assessed the folks from Sam Rainsy side. My conclusion regarding the Lotus Revolution is just plain air threat without anything to back it up. I doubt it that it will have any people to do riot or there will be any Lotus Revolution members brave enough to take on the task at this moment in time. Cambodia continues to growth economically and many Khmers invested so much monies in Cambodia to rebuild Cambodia's economy and invest in personal business etc including peoples from US and other parts of the world. While Sam Rainsy going around the world trying to rally support for Lotus Revolution; I haven't seen anything coming out from it accept couple threatening letter here and there. In every countries, you gonna have people that is dissatify with the leader, it is normal. If you score 60% or above, you have passing grade as leader. I think Cambodia leader score higher than 60 percentile so revolution is less likely. This is just my oppinion based on the last election result. I could be completely wrong on this assessment. In term of election campaign, I haven't seen any real competitor coming forfront to compete with PM Hun Sen or may be people wouldn't dare to have public debate with PM Hun Sen in the public because they are afraid. I am not sure if it is truth because Sam Rainsy never afraid to say what he said to PM Hun Sen. The other might say, why compete if PM Hun Sen if he is at his peak in his political career. He certainly know how to consolidate power and it will take years to unwinded his power structures. You got to wait for your turn and only time will tell if Cambodia will have PM Hun Sen at 90 years old. If you are smart about it, you can work for him serve the country under his leadership, build your reputation, gain more notice visibility in the public and when the time comes; you can compete either against him or have him endorse you to compete with other candidate if he decided to retire. This is not the right time for any body to get into politic against PM Hun Sen. Sam Rainsy on the other is ready but lack of access to the media and money men to gain any traction and he is not in town to compete. However Sam Rainsy followers might be ready such as Mu Sochua. She is a great lady and champion for the poor. However, Sam Rainsy will not support her to go infront of him on the political stage. This is the problem opposition is facing because without Sam Rainsy, no one can lead against PM Hun Sen in the election. He too rules his party like a dictatorship not in a threatening ways but noone is good enough or can be above him. HRP, might have a chance but they are too young and lack of money but they gain more momentum and continues to grow in small increment and PM Hun Sen already make sure that it grows at turtle speed. Overall, Cambodia is not ready to switch leader at this time of era. If you depend on the royal family to win in election again, you can kiss that dream good bye because as you can see many leaders from Rannaridh party jumping ship to CPP already. They know that they can't compete with CPP. Although, my assessment of the Lotus Revolution nothing but air talk but the government cannot afford to not investigate the movement to ensure that Cambodia doesn't have chaos or riot in the future because if people feed up with unfairness, lack of jobs etc, then it will continue to be a threat of possbility. I have read many of "True Khmer" mombo jumbo articles with schetchy facts but he tried so hard to bring attention to public and tried to convince the general public that there is danger of keeping PM Hun Sen in power. Nevertheless, he wanted new leader to emerge. Cambodia at a point that I can declare that no one dare to challeng Prime Minister Hun Sen. At the same time, he is grooming his children and they are very educated unlike other political leaders where their children doesn't go to school, committed crime and create chaos in the society.
