Hun Sen says if CNRP was legalised Kingdom could ‘not avoid’ conflict

[geovalin]

Prime Minister Hun Sen on Thursday said the Kingdom could “not avoid a war” if the Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP) is legalised and its former president Kem Sokha went unpunished.

 

He also denied the theory that he was behind the creation of minor political parties.

 

A former CNRP lawmaker shot back that his court-dissolved party only practised non-violent protests, while a political analyst contended that the prime minister’s statement was a scare tactic.

well of course, the CNRP would win so the army would have to have them exterminated

Hun Sen dreams of life long rule and dynastic rule are well noted in the press. He will say and do anything to cling to power.   Never met a Cambodian who was his fan.  His legacy should be one of participatory government instead of complete self centered rule.

Being the only high up Khumer Rouge leader still in power - the mind boggles how the West ever allowed him  to stay. But hey Pol Pot died of old age in Bangkok so there you go.

 Bangkok? He died just outside of Cambodia.
