The Hun [Sen] Dynasty is no different from the Kim Dynasty of North Korea and the Castro Dynasty of Cuba

Re: Hun Sen can pick any successor he wants

Dear Khmer Patriot,

Thank you for your kind words.

I would want to read your book very badly. Hun Sen would purchase millions of them.

Now you make your stand very clear that “Hun Sen can pick any successor he wants”. It sounds like you are a student of Machiavellianism, a political doctrine which holds that craft and deceit are justified in pursuing and maintaining political power. This sounds very familiar to me because Hun Sun is a Machiavellian; he doesn’t care about the means, either by way of killing or deceit, as long as he gets the results he wanted.

Moreover, you expect a better result for Cambodia by abandoning laws and control mechanism and let a country’s future under the mercy of Hun Sen and his son.

Your theory is something like this:

Cuba’s Fidel Castro hand-picked Raul Castro== nothing better;

N Korea’s Kim Jung ill-transferred power to Kim Jung Un == nothing better;

Syria’s Hafez al-Assad hand-picked Bashar Hafez al-Assad == nothing better; but if

Cambodia’s Hun Sen hand-picks Hun Maneth == thing WILL change for the better. Bravo!!!

Are you kidding?

Hun Sen is likely to stay until he is 90 years old. Why don’t we promote the ideas that Cambodia should have a strong system for controlling power transition after the Hun Sen era. We should convince Hun Sen to be the champion of this system, by being the designer of this system. With this strong system, no any individual could do whatever he/she wants.
Please don’t misjudge that SRP would win over the young Hun Manet in 5 years time. I think the Hun dynasty would last another 50 years if we don’t follow the rules of laws and a good system.

If the SRP adopts a political line (probably in its 13th point) stating that Hun Sen can hand-pick any successor he wants, it is nothing less than a political suicide. Suicidal, suicidal, suicidal...so a song goes. Ok you know really?

You quoted a marketing gig saying that: A definition of insanity is to keep doing the SAME things, and expect DIFFERENT results.

But ironically, you support the SAME Hun dynasty to lead Cambodia again and again, and you expect a DIFFERENT result. Is it your innovative idea, insanity or stupidity?

I would feel bored to death before the end of my remaining 10 years of my life. Too fed up with the Hun family! Enough is enough!
