Cambodia tricked the powers into fighting each other.

After Donald Trump reached out to intervene in the Thai-Cambodian conflict, Cambodia took a stance that clearly appealed to Trump - Trump's nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize, meeting Trump's demands, and accelerating security cooperation with the United States.

But on the other hand, Cambodia also tried to maintain relations with China, with Hun Manet casting an article praising Chinese flattery, hoping to preserve China's kindness.

Cambodia is trying to rely on conflict and competition on the geopolitical stage between the US and China to strike a new balance for itself, and it is not surprising that Cambodia relies on this strategy to take advantage of two world powers. If it understands Cambodia's history over the past 200 years, Cambodia has always relied on this strategy to survive.

Back more than 200 years ago, Cambodia was considered a weak buffer state of two regional powers like Thailand and Vietnam, and Cambodia's internal politics were fragile in many ways, allowing both Thailand and Vietnam to intervene.

The Cambodian court itself often chose one side, allowing two powers to fully intervene politically, causing a proxy war between two nations, until the struggle eventually escalated into the Siamese War or the Siamese War (1841-1845).

The two powers killed Cambodia for nearly four years, so much of the resources of the two countries that they caused internal problems for the two countries that they finally decided to open a negotiating table, which led to the conclusion of making Cambodia a "joint Suzerainty" in 1845.

This treaty permanently affected Cambodia's governance structure, made Cambodia vulnerable, unstable and dependent on external powers, which did not please the Cambodian king much and intended to bring Cambodia out of this state.

But his choice was to "borrow the nose," France breathed, after France invaded Vietnam in 1858 and gradually squeezed Vietnam into losing its own territory. Cambodia chose to become a French "protectorate" on Aug. 11, 1863.

This Cambodian choice, which forced Thailand to lose its authority over Cambodia and opened up a channel for the French to gradually take over what had previously belonged to Thailand, is at the root of the current Thai-Cambodian border dispute.

However, the policy of French rule is not very good for Cambodians, with the French government seeing Cambodians as "stupid and lazy," so it oppresses Cambodians, bringing Vietnamese and Chinese into the bureaucracy and trade, replacing Cambodians.

And despite Cambodia's independence from France in 1953, Cambodia had to become a representative war area again, but instead went from Thailand-Vietnam to U.S.-Soviet 2, the world power at that time, with Thailand standing on the U.S. side, and Vietnam standing on the Soviet side.

Until finally, Soviet-backed Vietnam took over Cambodia in 1979, where this event resulted in Hun Sen's first entry into Cambodian political power as a foreign official, allowing him to become Cambodian's dictator to date.

After the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States tried to gain influence over Cambodia through aid in various fields, but Hun Sen's 1997 coup had caused the United States to cut off all aid to Cambodia, opening up a gap for China to gain influence over Cambodia instead, with China supporting Cambodia unconditionally, unlike the United States, creating conditions for Cambodia's democracy and human rights.

China wants Cambodia as a transit route for one belt, one road initiative and a lot of investment in transportation and industry.

However, Cambodia's readjustment to the United States, which is like a bridge for reconciliation, has given the United States the opportunity to compete with China in Cambodia and ASEAN again, which is to see if Cambodia will become a representative war area again after what has happened repeatedly over the past 200 years.

But of course, for the past 200 years, Cambodia has been using other people's nose to breathe, borrow foreign power, and keep switching sides just to maintain the power of the elite, never even once thinking of developing inner strength.
