While Samit Virak is only a one-star general, a picture of him was found
wearing 3-star. The suspect smugly said that he took the picture with three
stars while he still look young and handsome and he will be a 3-star general
one day anyway.

10 UN RESOLUTIONS,(1979-1988) VOTED BY 116 UN MEMBER COUNTRIES ,CALL VIETNAM
TO CEASE HER OCCUPATION OF CAMBODIA & REMOVE ALL HER TROOPS FROM THE COUNTRY,
ARE NOT RESPECTED.
SUCH AS ONE of THESE :
Nov. 14, 1979 The UN General Assembly adopts a resolution A/RES/34/22
calling for the immediate withdrawal of all foreign troops from Cambodia.
The vote is 91-21 with 29 abstentions.
America calls Vietnam to restore Cambodia Independence .
President Reagan's address to the 43d Session of the United Nations General
Assembly in New York, New York,September 26, 1988.
"Mr. Secretary-General, there are new hopes for Cambodia, a nation whose
freedom and independence we seek just as avidly as we sought the freedom and
independence of Afghanistan. We urge the rapid removal of all Vietnamese
troops ...."
As of today,Cambodia is still occupied by the Vietnamese troops despite the
call from the US president to Vietnam to cease her occupation of Cambodia
since 1988.
Cambodia needs Independence from Vietnam and the Vietnamese invaders.
