In a perceptive analysis, @himalkk looks at @JVPSriLanka's role in stifling #lka economic progress for (at least) 1/3 of post-independence period. JVP's contribution to #EconomicCrisisLK is significant, yet ignored or underplayed by left-leaning academics newswire.lk/2025/06/09/left-…

DOCUMENTS LEAKED THIS week reveal that the US is secretly working on a massive political interference operation in Cambodia. Washington is using the exact same methods it used to create civil unrest in Hong Kong in 2019, and Bangkok in 2020, and in Moldova and Bangladesh this year, and a score of other places over recent years. America has numerous units which discreetly provide large amounts of cash, protest guidance and media contacts to Pentagon-friendly anti-government groups in scores of countries. The technique is known as "hybrid warfare" or "color revolution". . ILLEGAL IN MOST PLACES In Cambodia, the documents leaked this week indicate the involvement of multiple units, including the National Endowment for Democracy, George Soros' Open Society Foundation, USAID and others. The shocking details were revealed by The Sunday Guardian, an Indian newspaper, and followed up by the Khmer Times of Cambodia. In contrast to Asian journalists, Western mainstream media outlets automatically cover up, downplay or mislead readers about US hybrid warfare operations, despite the fact that these actions are illegal in most places. The secret political interference operation in Cambodia is being led by "a cocktail of agencies situated in the US and other countries, in collaboration with political dissenters in Cambodia," the Sunday Guardian said. The aim, of course, is to "execute a long standing operation to remove the incumbent government from power and install a pro-Washington face in Phnom Penh." . BIG MONEY The paper published what it said was a leaked email showing that opposition leader Mu Sochua was given at least US$55,000 US dollars from George Soros’ Open Society Foundations that would ensure "Major advocacy will continue till the end of 2024". Another leaked document refers to operations continuing until 2028 and mentions a payment of 98,000 US dollars. . STAGES OF PLAN The stages of the plan show the system is virtually a carbon copy of Washington's 2019 operation in Hong Kong. The plan is to hurt Cambodia by getting the US Congress to pass a "Cambodia Human Rights and Democracy Act", – just like the US congress hurt Hong Kong by passing the "Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act. The plan said it would involve the usual US vassal states or allies in the region: Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand. It said It would "advocate the EU Parliament for resolutions on Cambodia". And it would "push for targeted sanctions by the EU against high ranking officials of the Cambodian government for grave violations of human rights and corruption". They did the same thing to harm Hong Kong. . SOLE SUPERPOWER Why does the US do this? In a 1992 defence policy document, the US declared that it, and it alone, should be the dominant power over the world, and particularly the people of Asia, the biggest portion of humanity. Since then, it has worked hard to achieve this aim, using secret political interference, western media demonization of competitor nations, military shows of strength, economic coercion and so on. But China's alternative plan, offering a multipolar world in which countries have positive relationships based on mutually beneficial trading operations, has growing support. Urgent action is needed. it is absolutely vital that EVERY GOVERNMENT IN ASIA immediately gets consultants who can dig up secret hybrid warfare operatives in their country. If they fail to do this – well, look at Ukraine for the result. If you want help, contact the present writer.
