You can simply compare the approach between Madam Clinton and Mr. Wu. Madam Clinton wanted to have firsthand experiences by associating with common Cambodians, visiting rural areas and destitute places, interacting with youths and students before talking with those top leaders who Madam Clinton considered as the servants of Cambodian people. Madam Clinton aimed to empower Cambodian people in creativity, independency and courage to speak up to power in order to secure their future, their children and sustainability. But Mr. Wu is very different. Mr. Wu came up by chit-chating with top leaders and promised to give lucrative aids to those top leaders without condition or tying.
Just few days passed, many top leaders of the world physically appeared in Cambodia. Those included Ban-Kimoon, UNs secretary general; Madam Hilary Clinton, US Secretary of State, and Mr. Wu, a top officer of Chinese parliament.
This appearance appeared after Hun Sen claimed that China's territorial conflict should be bilateral solution, ASEAN should not interfere with it. What we can notice this public claim of Hun Sen in Hanoi was surely inclining to give prowess to China but under the prospect of supervising of Hanoi. If my speculation is true, the history is repeating itself again in Cambodia.
The current strategic game of China-Vietnam in Cambodia is similar like during American war. First, Vietnam engaged with China to defeat American troops. After the great unification between the North and South, Vietnam disengaged from China to invade Cambodia. Surely, China supported all means to KR including ideology and military supplies, but China fell into Vietnam's chessboard as Chinese aids were used by Vietnamese insurgents. Many Vietnamese cadres were hiding inside the troops of KR. Pure KR soldiers are tribes and farmers who didn't know how to use guns and tanks supplied by China. Yes, we can say the infiltrating game of Vietnam worked very well in that time.
Now, it seems Hun Sen claimed to support China is working again. 1.6 billions in different 23 projects between Cambodia and China during official visiting of Mr.Wu has been promised. But those money surely empower the prowess of dictator and one-party state like in current Cambodian government. Good job for Vietnamese who has infiltrated its people inside current CPP and urged Hun Sen to say something inspiring at Hanoi to draw the attention from China to aid more to Cambodia as well as to worry Madam Clinton as well as the EU.
However, the impossible disintegration of China-US, China-Eu has worried Vietnam impregnably. But what is worrisome for Cambodians is the stupidity of Cambodian government who has swarmed by a bunch of leaders who have solely learned the KR mentality of enforcing Cambodian people to obey their orders. It is a style of threatening between clients and patrons. These bunches of leaders are enjoying entitlement, power, wealth and praise from the poor, inferiors and peasants etc. They have aimed to carry out policy that Cambodian people must preserve the culture of obedience, compliancy, respect to the powerful and receptive to the supremacy.
You can simply compare the approach between Madam Clinton and Mr. Wu. Madam Clinton wanted to have firsthand experiences by associating with common Cambodians, visiting rural areas and destitute places, interacting with youths and students before talking with those top leaders who Madam Clinton considered as the servants of Cambodian people. Madam Clinton aimed to empower Cambodian people in creativity, independency and courage to speak up to power in order to secure their future, their children and sustainability. But Mr. Wu is very different. Mr. Wu came up by chit-chating with top leaders and promised to give lucrative aids to those top leaders without condition or tying.
Policy which is inclined to style of China is hard to free Cambodia from complicate game of Vietnam. But policy which is stylized by Madam Clinton will give us hope and strength of bright future of Cambodia. It is the political message which is very invaluable from both Madam Clinton and Mr. Wu. While Mr. Wu gave us food on plate, Madam Clinton gave us methods to find food and sustain ourselves for long term goal.
Between Madam Clinton and Mr.Wu, which leader are you going to choose? And could Vietnam win the mind of Cambodian people (by trying to re-affirm its friendship with Cambodians by giving free books to children with its hidden agenda by infiltrating its officials within the CPP?). I am eagerly waiting to hear from you all!
