A HOLIDAY ENDS IN CAMBODIA

by Hanuman on February 22, 2010

viceland.com – The Cambodian government is not historically known for caring much about international justice or criminal arbitration. But now, far from The Hague, in a former military base off a long, dusty stretch in the outskirts of Phnom Penh, the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) is undertaking a unique experiment in putting the country’s most murderous masochists on the stand.

Lost in Cambodia

by khmerbird on January 19, 2010

Why did a radical British professor become a cheer-leader for Pol Pot? And why was he murdered on the very day he’d met the brutal dictator? Andrew Anthony on the extraordinary life and death of Malcolm Caldwell

The name of Malcolm Caldwell is remembered now by very few people: some friends, family, colleagues, and students of utopian folly. In the 1970s, though, Caldwell was a major figure in protest politics. He was chair of CND for two years, a leading voice in the anti-Vietnam war campaign, a regular contributor to Peace News, and a stalwart supporter of liberation movements in the developing world. He spoke at meetings all over the country, wrote books and articles, and engaged in public spats with such celebrated opponents as Bernard Levin.

The name of Kaing Guek Eav is, arguably, known by even fewer people, at least outside of Cambodia. Instead it is by his revolutionary pseudonym “Duch” that Kaing is usually referred to in the press. Duch is the only man ever to stand trial in a UN-sanctioned court for the mass murder perpetrated by the Cambodian communist party, or the Khmer Rouge, in the late 1970s. His trial on charges of crimes against humanity, grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions, and homicide and torture concerning thousands of victims, drew to a close in November. Justice has taken more than 30 years, but a verdict and sentence are expected sometime in the next few weeks.

I Just Came to Tell You That I’m Going

by khmerbird on October 15, 2008

I just came to tell you that I’m going
And all your tears won’t change anything
… You remember the good times and you cry

Serge wrote this song to say goodbye to everybody when he knew he got cancer,
It was now adapted into English version, in the album Monsieur Gainsbourg Revisited.

this song is dedicated to the two soldiers that died in protecting our territory.
God will bless you to rest in peace, and we will remember your names.

YOU ARE THE PATRIOT!

They must move tonight or tomorrow. If they don’t … there will be fighting.

we should not call this invading with the name of Preah Vihear anymore, because the Preah Vihear temple is already belongs to us.

this invading should is purely made by Thai, with their intention to take our land. The word Preah Vihear should not be used in the media.

this is the invading, purely an invading from Thais. because until today Thai got no intention to negotiate about the border issue, they said whatever they want, they change their position everyday, what they really want? it’s not to clarify the border problem but to invade into Cambodia territory with their tricks. the first 3 persons entered into the temple is also their trick to get reason to send troops near Preah Vihear.

we should not use the Preah Vihear to name their invading, it’s not the correct one. we should call this is the Thai Invading into Cambodia territory. The case Preah Vihear is closed. do not follow their trick.

they invaded into Cambodia territory and after a while they said that land belongs to them. we should not let them come around that pagoda, we should not allow them to stay amount us. for sure we don’t want to make any war, but if they come in our territory, we have our duty to stop them. it’s out of questions to let them step into our land.

now they came up with their fake map and they will not move back and said back to us to move back and share the benefit from Preah Vihear 40% to them.

It’s Cambodian’s land Thai Premier Minister! it’s not no man’s land like you quote.

you got no right to do that Thais, you make up everything and the world is watching you. and if we need to fight, we will fight you until the end to guard our land.

there’s no way you can take the land from us,

we, the Cambodia people will fight until the end and the world will condemn you and your people.

Phnom Penh 23 July 2008

I heard Hillary Clinton is now become the most reseached person around the net,
They wanted to know eveything about this ambitous lady to become the president,

I remember on the day that Bill told the true, she stood next to him,
Even she looked sad, but she did show her support to her husband,
It was not an easy thing to do,

I am curious about that,
What is the reason that she forgave Bill about the affair with Monica Lewinsky ?
They are still together, until now …

Is it because of the great understanding between both of them,
She might understand about how the fragility of a man is,
She might understand that,
It’s easy for a man to lost his mind and do dirty things,
Bill is also a man,

Forget and forgive about that,
It was quoted somewhere ” there are worse things than infidelity ”

Or she might think about future, about her way to become a new President ?
If it’s true, Yeah it is too bad for Bill…

a lot of discussions was going around ..
you can get yourself stick curious more about,

two books about Hillary Clinton

Did Hillary Clinton ever get mad at her husband for having an affair?
