The Middle East-style revolution is self-destructive

By Tuk Tuk Driver

Re: True Khmer: The wheel of justice is unstoppable

I see your point; however we should pick different ways to resolve issues rather than putting everything on the revolution which will be very risky and ultimately destroyed our nation and allowed the enemy to take over Cambodia easily once we became self-destructive. I realized that you want to see change, I am not against change, but I am against using riot, violence and bringing the Middle East-style revolution to seek change.

Please look at the Middle East closely and assess what they are going through such as Libya, Iraq etc. They are not even at the stage of rebuilding the country. It will take them at least 30-40 years to rebuild it. We don't want that for Cambodia.

Tell your leader to find other alternative to change leadership that doesn't destroy and weaken the growth and development of Cambodia. Why don't your leader work on election campaign, lobby to seek equal treatment from the National Election Committee etc. If you continue to fight through peaceful mean and be persistent, you will win. You don't have to risk destroying our nation to bring about leadership change.

Maybe you should stick to driving a tuk tuk or do it as your "nom de plume" suggests.
Irak was never a revolution, it was a personal war led by bush and the right wing hawks to hold power.
Egypt and Tunisia chaos? Libya will emerge from the revolution a stronger and united nation less a dictator.
Did you hear what a Tripoli resident said? We have no water, no food, no petrol but we are free and happy.

"There are too many cockroaches inside my old house and too many rodents feeding on the food scraps in my old kitchen" laments one fool. What I'm I going to do? Oh I know; I am going to burn down the whole house to get rid of these pests!

Let's wait and see how it will rebuilt their nation after revolution. Those powerful nation which involved in the revolution need money also and hoh much they have spent they need to take it back multiple time. Please let our nation in peaceful and step by step to settle the differences to avoid the destruction. Look at our 1300-2000 history what we had left after the way the internal differences periodically.

I don't need regime change; just leave it alone and allow people making their living. The government just continue to create policies that is friendly to business owner, farmers, and others. We will be fine, thank you very much. I seen enough bloodshed among Khmer as mentioned above from 1300-2000. Cambodia shrunk each time there is internal revolution. Cambodia either getting outside to help out to fight inside people. This is our history. lotus revolution is self destruction ideology from Sam Rainsy and his writer True Khmer. I think Khmerization is part of this revolution too. They just hiding behind the website.

I almost agree the comment above. Just almost! We do need regime change but not by killing each other as we did in the past. There must be other way beside war and revolution. Let us learn from the past, so that we do not make the same mistake. Sam Riansy supporters get promble with their heads. What do Sam Rainsy knows about war, when he never lived through it. He wants all of us to killed each other, so he may has a chance to rule the country.

12:06am,
I am not going to burn the house, but I will kill the cockroaches. Likewise, I will not burn down Cambodia, but I will kick the dictator Hun Sen out of power. If Hun Sen chose to lit a fire (crackdown on protesters), that's Hun Sen's problems, but the protesters will maintain a peaceful protest guaranteed by Cambodian constitution.

8:28 AM,
"peaceful protest" or "Lotus Revolution?" The whole subject discussed so far is based upon Sam Rainsy's claim to incite Khmers to start a Middle Eastern Style Lotus Revolution to overthrow the government; that doesn't sound so peaceful to me. It sound a lot more like "Burning down the house to get rid of the cockroaches".

first it is peaceful demonstration, then claimed government fire at the crowd first with live amunition, then violence erupted, then ask the western to provide weapons for protester to fight back, then cambodian will have full scale civil disorder. who benefit? not cambodia... welcome back to the year zero and it will take 40 more years to rebuild again. if people leave cambodia alone, it will just function fine. we will have poors, prostitution, robber, killers, corruptions, homelessness etc. Which country that doesn't all these thing mentioned on this planet? NONE...

I agree with the comment above. You just a Tuk Tuk Driver? Good job!

I am in full agreement with Tuk Tuk Driver. We should learn from history and try to avoid use of violence for change. There is no such thing peaceful demonstration to have regime change. That is only a dream land. First, peaceful demonstration and all it takes is somebody instigate the crowd then you will have civil disorder and ultimately bring down the country. Dont be fooled. Love your country, dont let the enemy divided you and taking over your country peices by peices. Each time you fight, Khmer die, lost of Khmer land, lost of economic development etc. Be smart, there are many ways but it takes time. there are many leaders continue to develop each day. Sam Rainsy is not the only leader that go against PM Hun Sen.

7:02 PM, all protests in the Middle East were peaceful until security forces fired and killed protesters. In Egypt, Syria, Tunisa, Libya, people just peacefully rallied to demand reforms and the resignation of the dictators and incompetent leaders, but they were fired upon by police and soldiers and many were killed. In Egypt, about 800 were killed, Syria the same and in Libya many were killed and there are claims that about nearly 50,000 are still missing. These are brutalities committed by security forces who followed orders from the dictators. Even, protests in Cambodia in 1998 were very peaceful, but Hun Sen's security forces fired on protesters killing many people and even many monks were beaten and killed. So, violence and killings have always come from the security forces, not from protesters.
