His birthday passed recently with little notice, Within the palace’s crenelated walls, among the graceful pavilions and gilt spires, there was no sign of activity, Outside, knots of people went about their normal evening pastimes at the grassy, riverfront square, feeding pigeons, lounging on ballet set - set of 3 8 x10 prints reed mats and snacking on lotus seeds and noodles, “The king is a good, gentle man, a symbol of Cambodia, But he has one problem: no power, He only stays inside the palace, On television the leaders bow down before him but behind his back there is no respect,” said Sin Chhay, a young civil servant at the plaza, “You could say that Hun Sen is the real king of Cambodia.”..
