#PrinceSirikMatak #SirikMatak #Cambodia #Kampuchea #PhnomPenh #KhmerKrom #KampucheaKrom #USAmbassador #JohnGuntherDean Dear Excellency and Friend, I thank you very sincerely for your letter and your offer to transport me towards freedom. I cannot, alas, leave in such a cowardly fashion. As for you, and in particular for your great country, I never believed for a moment that you would have this sentiment of abandoning a people, which has chosen liberty. You have refused us your protection, and we can do nothing about it. You leave, and my wish is that you and your country will find happiness under this sky. But, mark it well, that if I shall die here on the spot and in my country that I love, it is too bad, because we are all born and must die one day. I have committed this mistake of believing in you, the Americans. Please accept, Excellency, my dear friend, my faithful and friendly sentiments. #Executed APRIL 1975 by #KhmerRouge #PolPot (at Cambodia)
