The prime minister’s eldest son has asked those calling for his invitation to be a special guest at a parade celebrating Khmer New Year in California next month to be revoked by “inviting” them to keep politics out of the annual event and celebrate unity.


“If we, as Khmers, could not unite and work together to promote our country to the world, how could we expect other [nationalities] to help us to do so,” Lt-General Hun Manet said in a statement obtained by Khmer Times.

“The reason is simple, despite the threat of protest by a small group of people, most Cambodian people supported the event because they know that it was not the time to fight each other,” Mr. Manet said, “But it was rather a time to put aside our differences and work together to promote our country and national pride as Khmer.”
