Prime Minister-elect Sam Rainsy: My position vis-à-vis America, China and Vietnam



២១ េមសា ២០១៤ | 21 April 2014

ជំហរ របស់ ខ្ញំុ ចំពោះ អាមេរិក, ចិន, និងយួន
My position vis-à-vis America, China and Vietnam

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.

By siding with China in her territorial dispute with Vietnam in the South China Sea, Cambodia could increase its chance to secure a fair resolution to its own territorial dispute with Vietnam in the Gulf of Thailand, which is part of, or adjacent to, the South China Sea. The objective would be to also internationalize the maritime conflict between Cambodia and Vietnam because, as a matter of consistency, Vietnam, in her relations with China, cannot call for the respect of international legal principles that she herself doesn’t respect in her relations with Cambodia. The international community, whose support Vietnam is counting on, cannot use double standards and turn a blind eye to Vietnam’s infringing on Cambodia’s territorial waters and islands.

    Yuon have no rights to claim any islands from China, since Yuon only took land from Cham and Khmers that's all.

    No body has the rights to claim any land on earth, since no body created earth, but GOD only who created the Universe that includes earth too.
    We are the Fall of mankind, so we cannot live with each other in peace.

    Are you saying that we need no governments, no rich, no poor, etc., ?
    But still we have families, thus favoritism and nepotism will be reborn. And when they reborn,
    Voila wars will be also reborn.

    Nop we need no governments, no human laws but GOD laws that is the most powerful laws than human laws. GOD laws cannot be violated. Jesus Christ is the LAWS. He is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE. Only through HIM, we will have all, Peace, Love and Eternal Life.

    We humans should live our life like the Venusians. Comm Valient THOR who visited earth and met Prez Eisenhower in 1957. To know about Val THOR, check on Dr. Frank E. Strangers.
    We humans are so violent because we are only in our 1st dimension. Until we reach high dimension, then we can be like Val THOR.

    Then we have to lie, and practice deceptions to survive?
    Why did I say that?
    TS wrote "The enemy of my enemy is my friend".

    Who needs that little midget bragger anyway.
    This question to Theary Seng?
    Why cannot you use the name "Khmer Intelligent Media" instead of weird name that people are not familiar with?
    Mrs. Sos created her new Blog and she uses new name that almost identical to the original KI Media. People are familiar with the name so they flocked into hers.
    Except that Mrs. Sos's Blog now is hijacked by Yuon/CPP agent called School of Vice. This person is an evil and very mean spirit. A lot of Khmer readers hate that person.
    Anyway, if you change the name why not keep the name of Khmer Intelligent as it was?
    Thx

    We cannot kab all Yuon, when our real population is too small and Yuon are closer to 100 million people. I think we should pray for Yuon to fear God, so they will stop abusing us.

  14. Why do you have to side with China in order to increase our chance to secure a fair resolution to our own territorial dispute with Vietnam in the Gulf of Thailand? Why do you have to side with China in order to internationalize the maritime conflict between Cambodia and Vietnam? Why do you have to side with an aggressor in order to prove another aggressor wrong? Can we not stand by UNCLOS and point out ourselves the double standards the Vietnamese has to international community/UN/USA?

    Heh Venusians are good looking people better look than people on earth. Do you know how old Val Thor in 1947 or 1950? He was closer to 500 years old. Those Venusians are here on earth watching us to make sure we earth people don't destroy the planet earth by nuclear. If we do destroy earth it will affect the other planets as well.

    Theary is Christian. Not sure if she is good Christian though. Find out if she is good or bad Christian. If bad. your declaration of hating bad Christian is to get lost from her Blog.
