Blindfolding the people with Fa Ngum's name.

It is so disturbed and irritated to see the communists put King
Sisavangvatthana and the whole Royal Family to death to end the 622
Laotian monarch, and now they contradictorily rise the statute of Fa
Ngum in memory of their past monarchies. This kind of manipulation
may have to do with the shame of their evil acts against the Royal
Family in the 1970s, their feelings of guilt to see the return of
King Norodom Sihanou of Cambodia, and the pain of the people for
having no King and have to honor the shadow of the King of their
neighboring Thailand. It may also have to do with their efforts to
blind-fold the people by falsely putting up the statute of King Fa
Ngum at Three Headed Elephants Park and declaring January 5 as
National Holiday. Indeed, the statute will remind the people that
they, too, used to having a King. However, in real life, such
thinking may make no difference to the developments of Laos or
promote any nationalism as stated by Laotian officials.

In reality, the rise of the statute of King Fa Ngum seriously
contradicts the elimination of the Royal Family. One hand holds a
hammer and cracks down the Royal System by eliminating the Royal
Family, and the other hand holds a blueprint of the statute of Fa
Ngum makes no sense to anyone. For the moral diverse Laotians, the
murder of the Royal Family in the 1970s has been the most painful
loss in decades. There is nothing on earth that can replace the most
honored Family of the country. Only Kaysone Phomvihane and his
followers can barbarically launch such a horrible acts against the
Family. Today, the rise of the Fa Ngum statute clearly indicates that
the Pathet Lao's political games remain the same over the years. It
is the same Vina Lang lok one they brought to Laos in 1975. I don't
intend to persuade any Laotian to take my words, but I am quite sure
many Laotians of diverse ethnic backgrounds have had enough of this
Vina Lang lok system.

Nowadays, based on Hmong beliefs, perhaps the spirit of the late King
may have reminded the so-called Lao leaders that they are criminals,
and that they should apologize to the Laotian people. Sadly, we all
know that the late King's demand will not touch the attentions of the
current Laotian leaders, and they will never admit their guilt in any
way, but will continue to stand firm that their system is the
best-the so-called Labob Mie Ane sot Sie. Whether that Labob Mie Ane
Sot Sie is still so or not, that propaganda will continue. Despite
their ignorance of King Vatthana's request, the current Lao leaders
know that oppositions against their system begin and continue to
rise. Laotians of various ethnic backgrounds living in Laos or abroad
gradually and openly demand a return of the Kingdom of Laos. To
indirectly admit their guilt and to keep their system alive for a few
more years, they try to blind-fold the people of Laos by using Fa
Ngum's name and by declaring January 5 as a national holiday.

All diverse Laotians know that the spirit of King Fa Ngum may protect
all of them somehow or some ways, but such a statute and a national
holiday will or may not improve the life of the people. Ten years
from now, the statute will be rusty due to the lack of care, and the
holiday may bring no differences. Only the people who live in the
city of Vientiane can go and pray in front of the statute and perhaps
can care for it from time to time. That will be all. Furthermore,
only the people in Vientiane can stay off work on January 5. That
means that Fa Ngum's spirit cannot change the system in Laos unless
the people do it. What the people can and may be able to do is to
bring the only survived member of the Royal Family, Prince Soulivong
Savang, back to restore the Kingdom of Laos, to reverse the Palace in
Luang Phrabang back to its original state, and to reunite all the
people of Laos as a constructive nation.

The return of our nation's Royal System may probably bring and makes
a difference because the Prince can do millions of things to Laos to
bring back the respects of the international communities while the
statute of Fa Ngum cannot. Under his Majesty, the people will be
better protected by a sincere and true constitution, and will
establish a system with moral government functions to guarantee the
rights of the people-the rights of ownership, the freedom of speech,
press, religion, education, economic and more. The diverse ethnic
groups in Laos will have better and equal opportunities and justice.
Though there are always the goods, the bads, and the uglies in every
society, the return of our Kingdom will be able to accommodate all of
them better. It is time to let the real new generation of Laos to
step on board to revive the spirits of the country and that of its
moral patriots who had died for serving the country for the real good
of its citizens.

Thanks for reading.
