- Kem Sokha shows his gratitude to the supporters for their devotions and uses strategy to get empathy and sympathy from the his followers.
- Kem Sokha wholeheartedly apologizes and accepts mistake for not following Khmer diaspora’s desire (to use people power to bring about change during the mass demonstration).
- Kem Sokha throws the ball to the USA as the one who kept pressuring him not to hold mass demonstration because he knows Khmer Diasporas are more obedient to the US decision in terms of sound democratic modeling and influencing on Cambodia (Khmer diaspora believes only the US that can help liberate the country from Vietnam. Not China because China is perceived as a communist state according to them.)
- Kem Sokha has already well researched and informed that the audiences are NOT happy with him and the political breakthrough on July 22. Kem Sokha knows that audiences feel that Sam Rainsy is not as sturdy and principled as himself so he tends to show the ball to Sam Rainsy abit but later shows that he and Sam Rainsy remain well united to fight. Kem Sokha is trying to accept mistake and empathizes the audiences and then tries to give creative and hopeful solutions in order to hypnotize the audiences to stay trustworthy, sympathetic and supportive to his CNRP. Kem Sokha knows it is not smart to defend and excuse at his point of time.
- Kem Sokha accepts some mistakes because he wants to show CNRP was reaching a deadlock and no choice to fight with CPP but to compromise. However, he then is trying to convince that the deal is not too bad. Kem Sokha points out the major positive reforms CNRP asks for like 4-4-1.
- Kem Sokha shows his Agree to Disagree towards CSOs concerning the draft election laws. He is happy to hear CSOs’ disagreements. Democratization is prevailing with CNRP and CSOs and he shows that he is a democratic leader and takes chance to criticize CPP of being undemocratic.
- Kem Sokha is telling followers that it is very tough to fight for change against the CPP. He suggests that the ruling is trying by all means to divide him and Sam Rainsy. He is trying to make followers kindhearted and remains helpful to the party at the difficult time of change.
- Kem Sokha is learning from PM Hun Sen who has recently accepted minor mistakes and asked for empathy.
To me this is one of the well-prepared and best speeches that Kem Sokha has
ever made. This speech shows that Kem Sokha is smart and even smarter than Sam Rainsy
in a way to psychologically mesmerize the political audiences. He carefully
persuades and inserts creative and optimistic solutions after each negative point CNRP is seen to make. I believe Kem Sokha has already informed Sam Rainsy not to be surprised
when he is going to deliver such speech to the Khmer Diasporas.
Interesting strategy ! ល្បិចសាច់កម្ម ! កាន់តែខឹង កម្មកាន់តែក្រាស់ កាន់តែល្អ
The more PM #HunSen is angry at #KemSokha, the more emphatic for Mr. Kem Sokha from his fans and the better for #CNRP's popularity as a whole, talking in the context that draft election laws are to be soon adopted.
CNRP fans have been angry at CNRP leaders from the process of ending
parliamentary boycott till the end of draft laws.Therefore, Kem Sokha
cannot allow CNRP's fans disappointed too long
so Kem Sokha needs to be perceived victimized and needs empathy for
himself as well as CNRP. To get empathy and to restore popularity, Kem
Sokha needs to embroil with CPP to either get lawsuit or threats from PM
Hun Sen.......Now PM is already hooked...
Therefore, the controversial election laws will be already adopted soon
while the popularity of Kem Sokha and CNRP adopted soon while the popularity of Kem Sokha and CNRP are being increased and more emphatic from #Khmerican and other Khmer Diasporas, the financial backs.
