[I've stated earlier that the problem with
Cambodia has always been the extreme limitations of its leaders AND the
people who are too easily pleased with cheap laughs produced by "the
everyman" Cambodian leader, with enough truth for us to pause
in the saying that we Cambodians deserve the leaders we have. For me,
Sam Rainsy and his wife Saumura currently are the only leaders with the
INTELLECTUAL VERSATILITY and broad and deep POLITICAL ACUMEN AND
CREATIVITY to lead...]
Sam Rainsy: With regard to internal
politics, more precisely the strengthening of democracy and the defense
of human rights, we will continue to seek the support of America because
we share the same values.
But in international relations,
ideology has become secondary, even irrelevant, at a time when national
and strategic interests are the determining factors in choosing friends
and allies. Look at the evolving relations between Vietnam and the US:
the two former enemies – one communist, the other one capitalist – have
become good friends and allies.
And when it comes to ensuring
the survival of Cambodia as an independent nation, there is a saying as
old as the world: the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
