Abstract
"« What follows is written for all those who love Cambodia and share my vision that Cambodians deserve to live without fear in their private lives and as they seek to contribute to the country's development. Yes, the first stage of Cambodia's transformation will be rapid and decisive. (...) Our challenge is to believe that all Cambodians can succeed together. » The writer has been the leader of the opposition in Cambodia for over twenty years. His following on Facebook - one of the few channels which have, so far, escaped Hun Sen's censorship - now exceeds four million. The Cambodia National Rescue Party, which he co-chaired with Kem Sokha, was the only opposition body sitting at the House of Representatives in Phnom Penh until November, 2017 when it was « dissolved » in what amounts to a constitutional coup. Sam, who back in 1993 was a member of the Cambodian Cabinet as Minister of Finance, is now an outcast. Heavy pains of prison hang over him; his estate has been seized. Sam Rainsy lives in exile in Paris. He has just founded the Cambodia National Rescue Movement"--back cover.
