Hun Sen didn't cheat to win, he won fair and square

What took you guy [Sam Rainsy?] so long to give Cambodia a hand? Did Thailand tie you up and did you just escape from Thailand with the spy master case?

Any way, we are all Cambodians and the Cambodian government should appreciate the inputs from SRP and open to the suggestion to investigate the facts. The world knows that Thailand doesn't obey ICJ ruling which Thailand stated already couple days ago; the world knows that if UNESCO favors Cambodia's plan; Thailand will not work with them.

It is not a bad idea to look into 1991 peace agreement if the Cambodian government hasn't looked at it yet. Why not? The Cambodian government has probably looked at 1991 peace agreement already, given so many expertise on the government team. If the SRP offered good suggestion, we as Khmer shouldn't look the other way just because they haven't helped the Cambodian government in the past or present time. After all, people make mistake sometime and we are not perfect.

If I was PM Hun Sen's advisor; I would advise him to open for the suggestion and investigate the 1991 peace agreement to see if there is alternative solution to the border conflict which I strongly doubt that there is, but you never know. If I was advisor to Sam Rainsy; I would tell him that there are ways to talk to people or there is a nice way to offer your inputs. Sometimes, you might have good idea to help the country but when you asked a standing government elected by the people to lead the country to step down; it sends a wrong message and your suggestion will get side-tracked. After all, we are human and we have feelings.

For those of you who claimed the election is cheated, give it up. We are reaching toward a new election in 2013. You should also examine the vote results; cheating is less likely because the number doesn't even add up to the claim. It's not even a close election. CPP won like a landslide, so if it is a close election then I can understand the accusation. Cambodian judge people by actions not how much you can point finger if you don't already know it. If SRP wanted to win the election, do something that show positive to the Cambodian community such as creating jobs, fighting housing crisis, help bring business to invest in Cambodia, improve education system etc. Don't just point finger and you do nothing. When you point a finger at someone, three are pointed back at you.

The SRP should stop taking advantage of the poor's suffering as political campaign against the government; it should help find solution to the problems and offers different ways to uplift the Cambodian economy. If you wanted to help the poor; be sincere about helping them; don't be like the phantom, fly by night and as the is morning gone, you left the poor holding the basket.
