Mu has been telling the world that she has no intention to run away from Cambodia. Mu also expressed her love for the Cambodian people and would fight with them all the way. Where is Mu now? Why isn't she in Cambodia fighting her lawsuit? Why is she coming to America and stay for a couple of months? Her intention is very clear. She would fight for the Cambodian people and flee when she is loosing. That is her heroic act for the Cambodian people. Is that what we call the love of her people?
