PM Compares Post-Liberation Disparities With the Present

KAMPONG SPEU: Prime Minister Hun Sen compared the disparities between Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge and Cambodia in the present.

Speaking at the Ground Breaking Ceremony for the Reconstruction and Upgrading of National Road No. 41 on the morning of 26 December 2022, in Kong Pisei District, Kampong Speu Province, Prime Minister Hun Sen said that he had written a book 30 years ago, citing disparities such as instability between demand and supply, instability of expenditure and revenue in the national budget, and instability of currency and commodities. All of this happened after the Khmer Rouge was overthrown by Cambodia in 1979.

"If I am not mistaken, I have written and mentioned it," he said.

Prime Minister Hun Sen stated that despite the changes, there are still instabilities in Cambodia, including those between production and markets, transportation methods and routes, revenues and expenditures, and currency and commodity instabilities caused by COVID-19 and the Russian-Ukrainian war.

It has been 43 years since the Khmer People's National Liberation Front overthrew the genocidal regime and restored the Cambodian people's right to life. The Provisional Government of Cambodia at that time was internationally sanctioned while it was fighting the Khmer Rouge as well as trying to help the people.

For the past 43 years, Cambodia has transformed itself from a war-torn country into a remarkably developing country.
