Tieng Narith: You are a brave man. You speak the truth of Cambodian government activities. You speak the truth about Cambodia in the hand of Vietnam. We need more brave Cambodian like you. You ought to make copy of your text book available to Cambodian children. Many Cambodian share your pain. Khmere people are too busy fighting among ourselve instead of united to protect our land from both the Thai and Vietnamese. How we can count on our government when many of the officials care of only their oun pocket and power. They sold the country and later on will be our soul. I am glad to know we still have Cambodian like you.
I know the pupets behind that silly acts. I am so proud of you, Narith. You speak out the truth. Keep up! I salute your brave stand and being one of rare fighters for Khmer’s real freedom. That university is nothing….. It liks government’s emplty plates and listen to some frogs there. I hope that all Khmer will be awaken from the oppression of greedy neighbors like Yuon, Thia and Loas… ALl Khmer’s OPPRESSORS and TRAITORS GO TO THE DEEPEST HELL NOW….
