Premier experiencing Rainsy selfie remorse
Thu, 14 January 2016
Mech Dara
Prime Minister HE has joined the ranks of Facebook users with misgivings about photos they’ve uploaded into the net’s eternal ether, saying he regrets his “selfie” with opposition leader Sam Rainsy last year.
The longtime rivals took the casual snap during a family dinner at the Hotel Cambodiana in July.
At the time, the pair maintained that their truce, dubbed the “culture of dialogue”, had ended years of combative and divisive politics.
However, in November, after months of rising political tensions, Rainsy again fled into self-imposed exile after being hit with charges, widely considered politically motivated.
“Previously, I took a selfie with a political partner, it appeared on the surface that things were very sweet between us but, in fact, the selfie concealed dishonesty that gives me regrets until this day,” he posted yesterday on Facebook.

A message posted on the premier’s Facebook page reads: “I had never read the Thai newspaper’s article on the fortuneteller foretelling about politics in Cambodia. However, just by chance, I spotted the material about 4 days ago and it reads that some politicians would try to cheat me, but then I learn about them and the evil maneuver was just quashed. This point of prediction is totally correct." ...

Meas Sokchea
A rumour shared on Facebook that Prime Minister HE had died during a recent medical trip to Singapore has provoked a threat of legal action against its creator from an aide to the premier.
The Facebook post, titled “news of death” and shared on Tuesday on an account registered under the name Kim Bopha, shows what appears to be HE laying in a coffin overlain with text that reads, “HE died after being cursed by the Khmer citizens in 2014. Please [may he] be in the seventh hell. Even if he has died, he will suffer forever!”
The post has garnered over 600 likes and 400 shares.
Ananda Yath, an adviser to HE, threatened legal action over the post.
“If an individual libels the prime minister’s life, it is illegal. It means that [the individual] has attempted murder....
Stupid thing to do. Didn't even get many "likes".
