Reading many pages of newspapers, comments and think pieces. Watching many clips and pictures. Sensing many touches, reasons and imagination. Today is the last days of Election Campaign Trail. From 12:00 am midnight, the noisy street bikers will take a relax.
PLEASE GO TO VOTE AND VOTE WITH STRONG WILL AND CONSCIENCE ON JULY 28, 2013. ALL CAMBODIAN MUST NOT BE NEGLIGENT.
Cambodia is the Land of Wonder with the Contradictory Scenes and Sight-view. Angkor Wat is a great monument the world admired, the Khmer Rouge and the museum of Toul Sleng frighten the Cambodian people and the world. In the Campaign Rally: opposition leaders both HE Sam Rainsy and HE Kem Sokha from the CNRP walked through several mountains, rivers, rice paddies and people crowds for the CAMPAIGN, but HE Hun Sen and HE Chea Sim from the CPP have stayed in shade quietly. Today is the last day of Election Campaign Trail. From 12:00 am midnight, the distance walkers will pause for a reflection.
PLEASE GO TO VOTE AND VOTE WITH STRONG WILL AND CONSCIENCE ON JULY 28, 2013. ALL CAMBODIAN MUST NOT BE NEGLIGENT.
Meas Srey and Prum Chea were jailed almost a year by the court of Cambodia under the CPP’s leadership because of their uniting with Sam Rainsy to protect their farm land from the Vietnamese attempt to construct the border post there, now two of them are happy with their bravery action even-though the local authority and the government have never given up of pineapple eyes on them. Today is the last day of Election Campaign Trail. From 12:00 am midnight, the family of Meas Srey and Prum Chea will plan to grow rice in their farm land and be ready for a VOTE FOR CHANGE.
PLEASE GO TO VOTE AND VOTE WITH STRONG WILL AND CONSCIENCE ON JULY 28, 2013. ALL CAMBODIAN MUST NOT BE NEGLIGENT.
Noisy streets by those rallies will become quiet, but the street bystanders and vendors will not forget their involvement from shouting and signaling the support of NUMBER 7. When the street watchers are signaling to oppose the Campaign Rally, this phenomena speaks a direct language to the Rally’s Organizer.
For your entertainment, please watch two video clips below:

Election Watch: Violence in the Election

Messages to all TV channels and Radios which are attacking Khmer youth.
Messages are concerning on violence should not be incited between Khmers and Khmers. If violence occurs, foreigner has always taken advantage. All Khmers must wake up for a great unification as a Khmer family. Message advised all youth to conduct professionally, non-violence and stay in unity.

After Aja A’s comment on violence and military coup will happen if the CNRP won the election, NEC has taken a historical action to order shutting down this radio channel. But civil societies are eager to see official confirmation from top officials of military and police department to this incitement comment. Aja A or Seng Bunveng’s comment is seen as intimidation during this election season.
However, it has become heating debate and sharing on facebook right now after CTN aired a video clip made by cutting from different sources accusing the CNRP’s supporters and youth as immature, bad behaviour and gangster. The clip televised throughout the country and ended by a song praising the CPP.
NEC must also take action on this airing clip whose content is considered causing hatred among political supporters. It is likely an incitement. After the airing many violences happened.
This is the clip aired by CTN accusing CNRP’s supporters are racist, disorganized, particularly young supporters (youth) are like gangster.
This is the clip of the so-called CPP’s young supporters are stoning at the CNRP’s young supporters. Many surrounding people tried to stop them.
This is a clip of another man who was bleeding on his head.
Historical heroic greeting of the Khmer Politician in this 21st Century
However, many young participants gave interview through the media said that “the power of money cannot defeat the power of spirit or ទឹកលុយមិនឈ្នះទឹកចិត្ត”; and saying goes “please look at Cambodia with your wisdom eyes, not by naked flesh eyes or សូមក្រលេកមើលកម្ពុជាដោយបញ្ញាចក្ខុ កុំមើលកម្ពុជាដោយមំសៈចក្ខុ”, or “moral support retained more efficacy than other means of political supports or ការគាំទ្រផ្លូវស្មារតីអាចមានប្រសិទ្ធិភាពជាងរាល់សំភារៈនយោបាយផ្សេងទៀត.”
While Phnom Penh Post highlighted the main page titled “unprecedented turnout greets Rainsy”, Cambodia Daily titled “Rainsy Returns to Largest Opposition Rally Ever”, thus I would like to title it “Historical heroic greeting of the Khmer politician in this 21th century”. I collected below videos and photos for library profile and reflect them as time permitted.

People say “pictures speak truth hundred words”. In the same time “live videos speak truth thousand words”. Both videos and pictures above speak truth hundred thousands words.
It is true that Cambodian people, both young and old, rich and poor, are flocking to greet H.E.Sam Rainsy in his returning to home country from his self-imposed exile to avoid 11 years jail attempt. The greeting organizer planed for 40,000 members only, but the participants skyrocketed up 1 million according to the latest source from the Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP).
– This unprecedented crowd tells us that Cambodian people need CHANGE in political leadership and governance system for a better future.
– This fever crowd is brave to stand up for their ideal, conscience, belief and self-determination (as majority of those participants were not invited or hired to come).
– This enthusiastic crowd is the manifestation of bravery act of H.E.Sam Rainsy in protecting the Khmer territory border land with Vietnam, not a criminal act as accused. The trial has spoken truth to Khmer conscience and mentality. It is another evidence that no one can distort the real interest of the Khmer nation from the Khmer people.
– This cheerful crowd is a testimony of Khmer people who fully value the mode of unification. The marriage of two parties into one big party is an ideal symbol of Khmer unity nationwide.
– You might have more words to decode from those videos and photos…
As said, this new party created by combining two democratic parties are seen as lacking many things such as finance, strong administration, and media coverage for its policy etc. is actually unparalleled to its contender, the Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) who has everything in hand.
However, many young participants gave interview through the media said that “the power of money cannot defeat the power of spirit or ទឹកលុយមិនឈ្នះទឹកចិត្ត”; and saying goes “please look at Cambodia with your wisdom eyes, not by naked flesh eyes or សូមក្រលេកមើលកម្ពុជាដោយបញ្ញាចក្ខុ កុំមើលកម្ពុជាដោយមំសៈចក្ខុ”, or “moral support retained more efficacy than other means of political supports or ការគាំទ្រផ្លូវស្មារតីអាចមានប្រសិទ្ធិភាពជាងរាល់សំភារៈនយោបាយផ្សេងទៀត.”
Thus, the Phnom Penh Post on its news titled “Hero’s welcome for returning Rainsy” wrote that [“It’s time for a change,” Ministry of Education staffer Le Hour, 32, told the Post amid the crowd. “In the office, I’m CPP, but I don’t really support their policies.”
Asked if he thought the CNRP now stood a chance in light of Rainsy’s return, he expressed optimism, with a caveat.
“If the election is free and fair, he will win.”]
This description mainly tends to point out that Leadership Skill is about self-reflection that from seeing such unprecedented crowd showed up in greeting an opposition leader, the ruling party must look at themselves twice or several times. And if the ruling party wish to see the brighter future and collective interest of the nation, they must accommodate FAIR PLAY in the election.
H.E. Sam Rainsy Kneeled Down to Kiss His Cambodian Motherland
H.E.Sam Rainsy is kneeling down to kiss his motherland (land, soil and earth). Of course, Cambodia land is belonging to every Cambodian. But his gesture in love and homesick by such kneeling down, kissing the ground and in tears dropping down in the moment tells every Cambodian that “the bone and blood of our ancestors have become this land for all Cambodians to live till today”.
All Cambodians must love this land, take care this land and sacrifice for this land at any margin of life cost.
I could not stop my tears and I must wipe them out several times…I think you all experience the same.
If we are honest and ready to sacrifice for our beloved land, our name and our cause will be immortal. More than that, the expression of H.E.Sam Rainsy is a sign of winning at all struggles.
Lord Buddha pointed to the land as his witness when Mara (devils) tried to claim back his seat of Enlightenment. Finally, Mara was defeated and Buddha fulfilled his Attainment.
