Popular Post geovalin Posted October 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2020 CAMBODIA said it was not a satellite country to China despite receiving much assistance from it. Prime Minister Hun Sn said this after concerns were raised that a naval base in country has been handed over to the Chinese military for its exclusive use. It also comes after a United States-funded facility in the Ream Naval Base was demolished last month. Hun Sen said he has asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to send a diplomatic note to all foreign embassies to explain the reasons behind the demolition. According to a Khmer Times report, he also expressed gratitude to the Chinese government for helping to build roads, bridges and other infrastructure in Cambodia. read more https://www.nst.com.my/world/region/2020/10/630567/cambodia-says-not-chinas-satellite-country 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just Chinese minorities all over South East Asia. And most of them don't even speak a word of Han Chinese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAMHERE Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I am American; I don't much care about Cambo or Laos, especially Cambodia. As far as I am concerned Cambodia is no longer on the fence, they have found a side to be on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talahtnut Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Thailand will become a satellite too, so that US can not surround China with its bases, as they have with Russia. China is looking after it own back yard. US is the aggressor, over 100 wars since ww2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you remember what Cambodia looked like 50 years ago? It was a nightmare for many Cambodians. China at least offered them contracts to get out of the mess, and now you - the inventors of capitalism - complain that they act like capitalists. That's not fair. If you gamble you must be able to accept you lose. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
