When the father is gone, the children should reconcile.
Every adversity, defeat, loss, disappointment carries with it the seed
of an equivalent or greater benefit, said Dr. Napoleon Hill the author
of “Think and Grow Rich” which had sold nearly a billion of copies
worldwide.
Regardless of how each of us thinks or feels about King Sihanouk, the
majority of Khmer people and the people of the world recognize him as
the Father of ALL Cambodians and a god King of Cambodia.
Perhaps Khmers can find the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit from the loss of King Father.
The very least I can think of now is that the death of King Sihanouk can
definitely help bring unity for all Cambodians regardless of their
political or religious beliefs. That means it is time for ALL Cambodians
to reconcile.
Sam Rainsy should pick up the phone and call Hun Sen to let him know
that as one of King Sihanouk's son and a son of Cambodia, Sam Rainsy
will be in Phnom Penh to join Hun Sen in the mourning ceremony of
Cambodians “God King” or King Father.
Hun Sen should reconsider and help facilitate one of his Khmer brothers
to join him in such a rarest ceremony. Let King Sihanouk’s spirit leaves
this planet in peace. By doing this Sam Rainsy and Hun Sen will both
win, hence the Cambodian people will also win.
As a great gesture the Current Cambodian King Sihamoni should use this opportunity to help free all political prisoners including Mam Sonando and others.
He should also request Premier Hun Sen to intercede with the Cambodian
court to help remove all charges against Sam Rainsy. By doing this King
Sihamoni will be remembered as the next great King of Cambodia after
King Sihanouk.
Yes, there are seeds or opportunities than we need to find good things
to help Cambodia after her greatest loss in modern time: the death of
the God King.
But, someone needs to take his personal initiative: Make that phone call, now.
