Comparing Cliques

Comparing Cliques

Dear Bruce,

Referring back to the letter written by 'XYZ' in June 4 issue of Salient. The writer asked, 'The way events are shaping up, would it suprise you to place Razak's clique in a position comparable to Vietnam's Thieu and Cambodia's Lon Nol?'

I fully agree with him because more than 60% of our country's economy is in the hands of foreign imperialists. To get rid of these foreign imperialists and their puppets is our main task. Perhaps we can learn the lesson from the Cambodian and Vietnamese peoples by forming a United Front (eg. the United Armed chair People Revolutionary Government of Malaysia) like the National United Front of Cambodia or the Provincial Revolutionary Government of South Vietnam. We unite all the people that we can unite—eg. radical Muslim, radical Christians, Nationalists like Robert Pui, oppressed people of all races, socialists, etc...

"Know your enemy
know your friends
one hundred battles
one hundred victories'

Vietnam and Cambodia might be too big for Thieu and Lon Nol. Saigon's Thieu and Penh's Lon Nol will be ok for them. They don't deserve it by now. The former Saigon Ambassador to NZ was granted political asylum automatically after the fall of Saigon. I suppose the Kuala Lumpur Ambassador to NZ should be granted the same thing in case Kuala Lumpur is going to be liberated by the United Armed chair People Revolutionary of Malaysia tomorrow. And who knows the members (about 3,000 of them in NZ) of the United Armed chair Revolutionary Government of Malaysia might cause hardship to them in NZ.

Yours,

Lt. Col. Lon Nol Thieu

the military Attache of the United Armed chair People Revolutionary Government of Malaysia to NZ.
