How CNRP Rift Benefits Hun Sen
“បទពិសោធន៍នៃការរួបរួមគ្នា អ្នកប្រជាធិបតេយ្យត្រូវរួបរួមគ្នាដាច់ខាត ដើម្បីឈ្នះ ចាំបាច់ត្រូវរួបរួមគ្នា។ ហើយបើមិនរួបរួមគ្នា អត់ងាយឈ្នះទេ។ ហើយបើឈ្នះហើយ បែកបាក់ការរួបរួមគ្នា ចាញ់ទៅវិញ។ ហ្នឹងហើយបទពិសោធន៍ គេ(ដំណាងរាស្ត្រម៉ាឡេស៊ី) ក៏ឯកភាព យើងក៏ឯកភាពអញ្ចឹង។”

Sam Rainsy claims after his meeting with some Malaysian parliamentarians that one major experience he learns from his hosts is that all democrats “must” unite to win. He says it is very difficult to win with disunity. How true.
In practice, nevertheless, Sam Rainsy seems struggling with how the unity works. While insisting he and Kem Sokha be one, he makes little or no effort to heal an obvious widening CNRP internal rift. He claims, without elaborating why, it is not possible for him to communicate with Kem Sokha after the latter’s recent conditional release from house arrest. Neither has Kem Sokha contacted him. Given modern communication facilities, the disconnection means the rift is widened to the extent that their liaison is no longer a priority.
A simple phone call between the two could do wonder for the CNRP unity. Kem Sokha may be persuaded to declare his support for a Sam Rainsy return including the 9/11. He could be thrown back in house arrest for breaking a court order not to be political, but it would be a massive boast to the morale of all CNRP supporters. Anyhow, that crucial phone call is not possible.
Sam Rainsy refuses to address criticisms that are laid before him. Perhaps, he cannot resolve them; or, he may dismiss them as irrelevant. He may not realise a burning cigarette butt can often lead to bushfires. However, he reminds all not to play a game Hun Sen sets up to break up the opposition. Yet, he forgets he has already been deep in the game by trivialising the criticisms.
Kem Sokha may now grow sick and tired of the rift and consider another opposition party. He can expect plenty of support from the West to go solo. Within three days after his release, ambassadors from eight significant Western and Asian democracies rush to pay him a home visit. They must be impressed with his tenacious and audacious decision to suffer in jail, rather than fleeing the country. Meanwhile, Sam Rainsy has been knocking at doors searching for friends and sympathy, which he says is successful. Contrary to his claims, however, there are no Western dignitaries accompanying him in his 9/11 trip. They may suspect it is just another hot air.
Hun Sen will smile on any Kem Sokha move that isolates Sam Rainsy. With his recent decision to grant amnesty to those he refers as duped 9/11 participants, the West may choose to maintain all trade concessions. Then, even lemon juice will not wipe the smile off Hun Sen’s face.

So, when ambassadors of Western democracies request all charges against Kem Sokha be dropped, it is an act of interference in the Cambodian justice system, according to Ministry of Justice spokesman Chin Malin; he reminds them they also act against the international law. How pretentious.
Nevertheless, when Hun Sen declares an amnesty for those who have participated in the fizzled Sam Rainsy 9/11 return, Chin Malin makes it clear that is not an order from the master, but just a request. And best of all, this request, according to him, does not interfere in the judiciary system. He just parrots a Hun Sen standard line that the court is independent, taking instructions from nobody.
It is indeed a request that – to reflect on Godfather Don Vito Corleone’s words and sentiment – Chin Malin et al cannot refuse. They will bend over backward to ensure Hun Sen’s request is their command. In this instance, Kampot provincial court releases two CNRP activists from jail within hours after Hun Sen’s request specifies the two. He says a prompt release will show how effective his words are. What can Chin Malin et al say besides executing the request pronto.
As Hun Sen points out, his legal system allows the Ministry of Justice to control prosecutors of the court and he, as the prime minister, has a control over the Ministry of Justice. It is a kind of a crooked democracy by law, which lumps the three branches of government system into one man for expediency.
Those ambassadors must be shaking their head in private and wondering if they will ever quit this charade nonsense.

Help my team make a difference
Think about this for a second: globally, men die 6 years earlier than women. To make it worse, the reasons are largely preventable. 1 in 6 Aussie men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Testicular cancer is the most common cancer among young men. And 3 out of 4 suicides in Australia are men.
Pretty shocking, right? That’s why we – my son Dean, my sons-in-law Ian and Sam, and I – are growing a moustache for Movember this year to raise some fund for their effort: they’re hell-bent on changing the face of men’s health and so are we.
The money we raise this Movember will help fund ground-breaking research, innovative health projects, scientific breakthroughs for cancer treatments and life-changing mental health programs.
By the way, your donation of more than $A 2 is tax-deductible under the Australian taxation law.
Donate to the good cause. Just go to the following link with your heart and wallet open and click, “Donate to team”.
Should you feel inclined, please share the campaign with your friends and relatives.
Cheers
