 The Harvard Crimson :: News :: Spreading Aggravation
Sirik Matak appears to recognize that it will be necessary to form a new government in Phnom Penh; he told The New York Times that when the United States supports a regime such as that of Lon No1 which lacks the people's confidence, "you help the Communists."
Sirik Matak's proposal appears amenable to the position outlined by Prince Sihanouk on March 23, 1970, although the very complexity of the Cambodian situation would appear to work against a rapprochement.
It is difficult to determine whether Sirik Matak is sincere about his proposal or if he will ever again be in a position to implement it, although the reported purge last weekend of Lon Non may help Sirik Matak's chances.
