*Most of this article is true in believable. Unfortunately, mud throwing exists in politics almost everywhere especially in developing countries. * *Mr. Kem Sokha should not opened opportunity for such thing. Actually, this particular incident has a trail from this individual.* *However, Mr Kem Sokha or Sam Rainsy could win if they stop their such idea that they believe to be their vital weapon. They are not. They ought to present themselves as UNIFYIN party who can gather Cambodian together to join a great leadership, which will bring more works, more foreign investment into the country with a very clear vision. The majority of Cambodians don't care much about politics. Almost all of them care about their families, their future and ofcourse the future of their new generation to come. * *Why can't the opposition do that?* *Unfotunately, opposition can only present themselves as opposition. They oppose everything that is not theirs. They are the only right people. Others must be wrong and attached to Vietnam or Thailand. This kind of vision does not carry them far to win because they already lost those who are not part of their party. Kem Sokha and his clans can only win the majority when they can win some of those who choose to be apart of CPP or others. We have not seen anything to attrack those to vote for the opposition party. Let us face it. Whether it's fair or not, they are facing the uphill battle. The only way to be able to do it is to show the country that the opposition party can lead to bring the country to another level better than what they have right now with a clear vision. *
