“Mr. Hun Sen
said Lt. Gen. Manet suggested that the premier should dare the CNRP to place a
bet on a DNA test: If Lt. Gen. Manet was his biological son, the CNRP would
have to quit politics, while the ruling CPP would have to quit if the DNA test
did not match.”

“He (Sam
Rainsy) wants to seem against the Vietnamese, but in fact his mother is
Vietnamese. We have no mothers who are Vietnamese....”
Council
of Ministers spokesman Phay Siphan, 14 April 14, The Cambodia Daily
The
rumour about who a real father of the premier’s son Hun Manet is has been
floating in cyber wilderness for years with a limited traction confined to a
small fervid group. However, Hun Sen, who has lately unleashed so much of his
wrath onto oppositions, breathes life into the dog in coma. Now the rumour
becomes headlines; and Hun Sen inadvertently implies he is not the biological
father.
According
to the premier, Hun Manet for two months addressed him as “Uncle” and prevented
him from coming close to his mother. He says only when Manet was asleep that
“it” would be possible. While the “it” is clear, timing of the alienation is
not.
When
was it? Was it after Manet’s return from his recent North America trip in which
he received some hostile receptions and brought the rumour back with him? Unlikely.
It would be too immature of anyone to behave in such a childish manner.
Then
it must have been when he was quite young – yet old enough to give Hun Sen the
cold shoulder for two months. Was it possible that the child was only
protecting his mother from a man he treated as a stranger? Hun Sen might have
been too busy with state affairs at the time that his son would take two months
to accept him as the father.
Now
Hun Manet, whom the premier says is the most patient kid among his siblings,
must be frustrated with the rumour. He makes two suggestions to the premier so
that the matter can be once and for all settled – a DNA testing and a wager on
the outcome with the opposition party. This would prove who is who, and a party
that loses the wager would leave politics. He must believe the premier is his
biological father to entertain such challenges. Hun Sen rejects both, however.
The
rejection bears a significant implication. Contrary to Manet’s belief, Hun Sen must
know Manet’s father is not him. Otherwise, he would accept the test and the bet,
and win – nothing sweeter than removing one’s recalcitrant opponents in a bet
that one knows the outcome beforehand. To pass up such an opportunity means Hun
Sen knows he would lose.
So
why does Hun Sen after all these years pull the rumour trigger, shooting
himself in the foot? One possible answer is that his burning desire to show off
his awesome power is getting the better of him. This rumour gives him another
excuse to pound all his opponents, ignoring any ramifications. Perhaps, in the
next reckless outburst he may be driven to blurt out the identity of the
biological father. He may not know who, though.
The
irony is that if Phay Siphan were right about Sam Rainsy being born to a
Vietnamese mother, and if the rumour were right that Manet’s biological father
were Vietnamese, then the next Cambodia premier would be a Vietnamese
descendant.
Meanwhile,
Hun Sen may or may not regret discussing Manet’s suggestions in public.

A revised
news report to comply with the Royal Government of Cambodia’s demand that
titles of all dignitaries be included in the text reads:
Land
of Samdech Wonders, January 2016
In
a preparation for an impending visit by Princess Somdech Phra Debaratanarajasuda
Chao Fa Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Rathasimagunakornpiyajat Sayamboromrajakumari of Thailand in February 2016, there is a
meeting of the Extraordinary Royal Working Committee at the Preah
Barum Reachea Veang Chaktomuk Serei Mongkol in Phnom Penh, chaired by Samdech
Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime Minister of the Royal Government of
Cambodia.
In
company of Samdech Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime Minister, noble
participants are Samdech
Kittek Proeut Bandit Bun Rany Hun Sen President of Cambodia Red Cross, wife of Samdech Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime
Minister; Preah Karuna Preah Bat Samdach
Preah Bâromneath Norodom Sihamoni Preah Mohaksat Nai Preah Reacheanachak
Kampuchea; Samdech Chavea Veang Kong Sam Ol Deputy Prime Minister and
Minister of the Royal Palace, Samdech Vibol Sena Pheak Kdei Say Chhum Senate
President; Samdech Akkek Moha Ponhea Chakrei Heng Samrin National Assembly
President; and Samdech Krala Houm Sar Kheng Deputy Prime Minister and Minister
of Interior.
The Extraordinary Royal Working Committee discusses the most contentious issue:
the royal toilet facility for Princess Somdech
Phra Debaratanarajasuda Chao Fa Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Rathasimagunakornpiyajat
Sayamboromrajakumariin, who is scheduled to stay a few hours at Lake Yeak Laom,
Rattanakiri.
Samdech
Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime Minister states at the royal meeting:
“I,
Samdech Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime Minister, am aware that the
Preah Barum Reachea Veang Chaktomuk Serei Mongkol has no cash to supply the
royal toilet for Princess Somdech Phra Debaratanarajasuda Chao Fa Maha Chakri
Sirindhorn Rathasimagunakornpiyajat Sayamboromrajakumari in Yeak Laom, which
costs about $40,000.
I
am not surprised that there has been a few month delay in receiving the payment
from His Excellency Minister for Economy and Finance, and that the Royal Place
these days operates on payday loans from Samdech
Chavea Veang Kong Sam Ol Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Royal
Palace. I just ask Samdech Chavea Veang Kong Sam Ol Deputy Prime Minister and
Minister of the Royal Palace to keep his interest charge in line with micro
finance rates of not less than 2.5% per month. Of course, my Royal Government
of Cambodia can do anything but does not want to pay less than what farmer
borrowers pay to the micro finance. Fair is fair.
If funding is
still in doubt, maybe Samdech Kittek Proeut Bandit Bun Rany Hun Sen President
of Cambodia Red Cross, wife of Samdech Akkek
Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime Minister, can use the Red Cross fund to
subsidise the expenses. After all, under the radiant leadership of Samdech
Kittek Proeut Bandit Bun Rany Hun Sen President of Cambodia Red Cross, wife of Samdech Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime
Minister, the Red Cross raises about $13 million a year from a small number of generous
benefactor Oknhas whose businesses have greatly prospered under the brilliant
leadership of me, Samdech Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime Minister of
the Royal Government of Cambodia.
Besides,
the Red Cross can take this royal toilet provision as a mercy dash to help
relieve Princess Somdech Phra Debaratanarajasuda Chao Fa Maha Chakri
Sirindhorn Rathasimagunakornpiyajat Sayamboromrajakumari from any toilet break
emergency during Her Royal Highness stay of only a few hours. It is important
to show the world that even in remote regions, under my auspicious leadership
there are five-star toilets for any wants.
Here
is an excellent idea. Samdech
Kittek Proeut Bandit Bun Rany Hun Sen President of Cambodia Red Cross, wife of Samdech Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime
Minister, can afterward relocate the $40,000 toilet to an eligible residence
near Vimean Ekrareach to avoid any criticism of extravaganza.
Finally,
I am sure Samdech Kittek
Proeut Bandit Bun Rany Hun Sen President of Cambodia Red Cross, wife of Samdech Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime
Minister, Preah Karuna Preah Bat Samdach
Preah Bâromneath Norodom Sihamoni Preah Mohaksat Nai Preah Reacheanachak
Kampuchea, Samdech Chavea Veang Kong Sam Ol Deputy Prime Minister and
Minister of the Royal Palace, Samdech Vibol Sena Pheak Kdei Say Chhum Senate
President, Samdech Akkek Moha Ponhea Chakrei Heng Samrin National Assembly
President, and Samdech Krala Houm Sar Kheng Deputy Prime Minister and Minister
of Interior, have enjoyed the discussion as much as I have.”
As
there is no other matter, I, Samdech Akkek Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen Prime
Minister of the Royal Government of Cambodia, chairing this meeting of Extraordinary Royal Working Committee at the Preah
Barum Reachea Veang Chaktomuk Serei Mongkol in Phnom Penh, now close the
meeting.”
So the meeting
is closed.
