Hun Sen, the outspoken Senate president, has fired a warning shot at his former "Godbrother", ex-Thai PM Thaksin Shinawatra. Accusing Thaksin of treachery, Hun Sen claims he will unveil damning details, including actions against the Thai monarchy. The revelation awaits Thailand's next move.

 

Addressing Cambodians in Preah Vihear province on June 26, Hun Sen expressed his frustration. “I’ve been wronged; now it’s time to reveal the truth about the Thaksin family’s betrayal of their nation. This serves as a warning: educate your children about their actions,” he urged.

 

He plans a deeper dive into Cambodia-Thailand relations on June 27, aiming for peace between their citizens. Hun Sen reflected on helping a family rise to power, only to face chaos. Mentioning current Thai PM Paetongtarn Shinawatra, Thaksin’s daughter, he hinted at their fluctuating status.

 

Directing sharp words at Thaksin, Hun Sen warned, “If you act beyond your station, I’ll disclose everything you’ve confided, including the insults to your king. Understand that I owe you nothing.” He called for a balanced relationship untainted by interference, reminding them of their past bond.

 

The former allies once enjoyed a close relationship, with Thaksin and Yingluck Shinawatra having stayed at Hun Sen’s home. However, tensions have spiralled, with Hun Sen hoping a new Thai leader will ease current strains.

 

Expressing uncertainty about current Thai authority, he remarked, “We’re unsure who truly holds power—be it the military or political factions.

 

A new prime minister might bring openness to resolve these matters.”

 

Hun Sen emphasised that Cambodia does not see Thailand as a foe but acknowledges a few extremist factions in play. The commitment to cooperation stands firm, irrespective of political colours, as both nations navigate these choppy waters.

Odds on Hun Sen living long enough to see this Christmas?

As I wrote earlier.. there is no dispute about the border.. it is all done by the Shinawatra family to distract the attention of the hospitalization hearing and the coming proces of violating of section 112... Now they have problems they could not oversee and Hun Sen is pissed.. Where smoke is is fire and your friends can be your worst enemy.

if teflon toni denies anything that hun sen says, it will only backfire even more ... teflon toni can not buy hun sen ..

It's an imaginary fatal disease, called convictitus felinitus.
