Prize of the successful festival<http://cambodianbrightfuture.blogspot.com/2010/11/prize-of-successful-festival.html> Political Analysis Today:
Hun Sen government should not be good in training their policemen and bodyguards to protect themselves as well as to disperse the mass demonstration demonstrating about justice, freedom of speech and land rights etc. As the matter of fact, we will suddenly see hundreds of policemen with proper equipment to disperse the people demonstration in using their basic rights to protect their interests from the powerful. But with this deadly people stampede, if policemen can intervene on time with such proper equipment, the toll of the dead will have no one or just few. Cambodian people and their nation has painfully been affected by their own action. They have fed those policemen and government officials in order to protect and serve them, but in contrast when they have enough energy from eating people rice, they will not hesitate to baton them, to disperse their gatherings, to shoot at them or to jail them etc. Each year, the Water Festival gathering has marked a huge beneficial eye-witnessing to the progress of government who has been a privileged host for this event. For ordinary Cambodians, they see this event as the traditional preserving and festivity. For businessmen, they see this event as the occasion to increase their marginalized benefit. But for politicians, the CPP party and their government see this occasion as a selling-point to raise up the names and party success. Evidently, each boat has proudly and publicly been sponsored by political elites and business tycoons. Of course, this boat racing and water festival is just the chance of money laundering for those political elites within the CPP: ministers in each ministry and business tycoons. When the event can attract more people, more successful that CPP organizers expect to gain from this. Counting from TV screen to radio channels and to public billboards, there are names of sponsors and honoring to those who have helped coverage all the expenses and prizes for the winners. Yes, in the eyes of the CPP elites, these supports and offerings are the "culture of sharing" which Hun Sen has always articulated. But for the democratic principles and scholastic elites, this is the act of the thief of the nation. Many businessmen of black marketing can easily transact their money. Many political elites can easily use their dirty money as the donation to sponsor this or sponsor that, and yes their names are repeatedly appearing on the TV screen, radio channels, public announcement or public billboard etc. This act of money laundering is the cool blood suckers! However, what is worse for the ordinary Cambodians are the negligence of government in laying a proper measurement to handle with million of people flowing into the city. This is because of their self-esteem and pride in attracting more people get into the city to witnessing their success of political propaganda until they forgot the proper measurement of protecting their lives. The deadly stampede happened and many young innocent participants claimed their dead unjustly. This is preventable situation and no one wants to point finger and assign blame on each other. It is the accountability and responsibility of the organizers of this event. Who are the organizers and affiliates? - Touch Naroth, Kep Chuttima, or the government? There are some efforts in explaining the nature of stampede disaster by our compatriots. This blog has reasonably explained the danger of the people stampede<http://about-cambodia.blogspot.com/2010/11/koh-pich-disaster-preventable.html>with such small pace to move and panicked people to step on one another until the lowest persons will be died and the top persons can have chance to survive. However, this explanation is just the outcome of the stampede. Cambodian people must smartly look at the preventable solution and responsible persons. Cambodia under current leadership is at the brink of deadly disasters. This deadly stampede is one of the witnesses of weak governing of Hun Sen regime. There are more disasters and they might be more dangerous than this in the future if this government doesn't care about reforming internal structure especially to detach their current patrimony system. Their capitalistic economic development will prevail in farmers revolt and retaliation. Their patrimony system will prevail in internal deadly conflict which is unpreventable from their internal rivals. Their god-king government or divine government will prevail in weak public administration like the case of Koh Pich human disaster. More longer Hun Sen want to cling to power, more dangerous Cambodia is. It's not about danger of Cambodian nation only, but it is more dangerous for Hun Sen himself, his families and relatives. Two theories that Hun Sen should concentrate on: First, the patron behind Hun Sen will not allow Hun Sen to live any more when their plan reach one unavoidable level. Second, the rival of Hun Sen within the CPP who have also wanted to lead the party and government will not allow Hun Sen to be a king forever. This is like the past stories of Khmer monarchy whose rivals are within their ring, not from outside ring at all. Koh Pich disaster is just one of the evidences of weak system within the Hun Sen government. With this weak system and weak leadership, foreigner spies who have bad intentions with Cambodia especially the Vietnamese spies within the CPP can ignite the flame in every second to weaken this nation. Although, China is surpassing Vietnamese at the moment, but the internal spies of Vietnamese will not allow Cambodia to sleep peacefully under that helm of Chinese. This is not different from the era of Khmer Rouge regime. Hun Sen and his government must be responsible for this deadly stampede and immediately restructure the government system. Hun Sen government should not be good in training their policemen and bodyguards to protect themselves as well as to disperse the mass demonstration demonstrating about justice, freedom of speech and land rights etc. As the matter of fact, we will suddenly see hundreds of policemen with proper equipment to disperse the people demonstration in using their basic rights to protect their interests from the powerful. But with this deadly people stampede, if policemen can intervene on time with such proper equipment, the toll of the dead will have no one or just few. Cambodian people and their nation has painfully been affected by their own action. They have fed those policemen and government officials in order to protect and serve them, but in contrast when they have enough energy from eating people rice, they will not hesitate to baton them, to disperse their gatherings, to shoot at them or to jail them etc. Hence, when people are in need for help from them like in the people stampede of Koh Pich; they are not. This is the reason of weak government under a weak leader and corrupted mind of those political elites. They might have no day to wake up or awaken!
