Cambodia suddenly announced on September 20 that the withdrawal of the Cambodian Laoyue Development Triangle Cooperation Mechanism (CLV-DTA) has attracted widespread attention from all parties.The direct fuse of the incident is that the Cambodian opposition linked the triangle cooperation with the "cutting land". It intended to use this as a political weapon. Through August 18th, the large -scale demonstration plan in the capital of the capital was destroyed and subverted the government.The Cambodian government has taken a series of actions for this reason that the opposition plans have failed to implement it, but after a lapse, they suddenly announced the withdrawal of the cooperation mechanism.This move is not only intended to stabilize the hearts of the people and fight back the opposition, but also implies the far -reaching layout of Cambodian power in order to promote the "Hongmane era".

The three countries of the Cambodian Old and Vietnam jointly launched the triangle cooperation in 1999. It officially took effect in 2004. It aims to strengthen Unicom and cooperation between the border areas of the Three Kingdoms and promote the safety, stability and development of border areas.But since July of this year, Cambodia has emerged at home and abroad against the wave of triangular cooperation.Although the opposition's plan was unsuccessful, the Cambodian government suddenly announced the withdrawal from the triangle.Subsequently, the Cambodian Foreign Minister Song Jinda notified the decision to the two countries.At the time of the triangle of the Triangle District, Cambodia had previously stated that the confidence and determination to participate in this mechanism had been revealed, but now it is suddenly abnormal, and the complex realistic background is reflected behind it.

First, national emotions are rising, and oppositions at home and abroad pressure.The opening of the Dechong Fukan Canal project has greatly released and mobilized the nationalist emotions of the Cambodian nationalism, so that the national pride reached its peak.On this occasion, the opposition of Cambodia's domestic and foreign countries took the opportunity to continue to induce and incite the public on the grounds that the government cut the four provinces of Northeast China. This once again pushed the nationalist emotions of Cambodia to a climax, which was easy to achieve more effort.In the end, Cambodia officially arrested nearly a hundred domestic activists, which failed to declare demonstrations. However, in Australia, Japan, and South Korea, demonstrations against this cooperation mechanism still appeared to suppress the Cambodian government.

The second is that the fatigue mechanism is getting fatigue and has a limited role in Cambodia.Triangle cooperation is a relatively loose cooperation mechanism. There are problems such as slow progress, high efficiency, and lack of effective supervision mechanisms. As a result, the economic development of the triangle area is not expected, and the development of the Cambodian border area is slow.In addition, this mechanism has strong replacement. Even with withdrawal, Cambodia can continue to strengthen cooperation with old and Vietnam through other double multilateral mechanisms, including Northeast Cambodia.

Third, independent consciousness looks up and strategic space expansion.After Hongma's new performance, it is even more unique to the country's independent foreign policy, focusing on promoting the balanced diplomacy of large powers, carrying out diversified diplomacy with a more pragmatic and open attitude, continuously improving the status on the international stage, and enhancing its strategic autonomous space.

In the past year, he has visited more than ten countries in the five continents, not only consolidating the friendship with traditional partners, but also eased and strengthened the relationship with Western countries.In addition, with the deepening of China -Cambodia relations and the increase in the interests of China in Cambodia, Cambodia's geopolitical status and value have risen, and the operating space for Cambodia in large powers and regions has continued to expand.

Cambodia gradually completed the transfer of power in August last year, and the era of Hongma Ni gradually kicked off.The opening of the new era will be accompanied by key tasks such as establishing their own authority, consolidating the foundation of public opinion, and controlling national strategic autonomy.The Cambodian New Government decided to withdraw from the triangle cooperation to release the signal of the Hongmane era, which aims to lay the foundation for the steady movement of the new era.

The first is to counterattack the opposition and strengthen government authority.The opposition forces used the triangle cooperation to attack the government and even attempted to imitate Bangladesh to overthrow the government.However, the Cambodian government counterattacked the opposition's actions in order to counter public opinion countermeasures and activities, which led to the failure of the opposition's plan to fail, and in turn became Hongma Ni to strengthen the authority of Hongma.The Cambodian government withdrew from the bottom of the triangle cooperation to draw salary, which caused the opposition party to lose a political weapon that attacked the government, resolved potential political threats, and once again strengthened the authority of the new government.

The second is to shape the new government image and lay the foundation of public opinion.Due to historical entanglement, territorial disputes, and issues of immigration in Vietnam, Cambodian society is complex and sensitive to Vietnam's emotions.After the Hongmanen government came to power, it gradually won the trust of the people with practical actions, that is, in the case of knowing that it might cause other dispersion, it still firmly promoted the Dechong Fukan Canal project and withdrew from the triangle cooperation mechanism.The public shows a good image of the new government's focus on national interests and converge in accordance with the public opinion. It consolidates the people through nationalism and further consolidates the foundation of the new government's governance.

Third, reducing the dependence of the outside world and expanding strategic autonomy.Cambodia's political, economic, and diplomatic strategies face the restrictions of neighboring countries and the influence of large powers. Reducing foreign dependence will ensure independence and embark on a path that is more in line with national interests.In the triangle cooperation, the provinces of the Vietnamese Triangle District not only obtained 521 projects invested in more than 30 countries and regions, but also invested 110 projects in the provinces of the Old Cambodian Triangle.It can be seen that Vietnam's dominant position in the triangle cooperation is the biggest beneficiary, and Vietnam also mentioned that the scope of cooperation between this mechanism can be expanded to the whole territory.If the Cambodian country continues to participate in the triangle cooperation, although it can obtain certain benefits, it will deepen the dependence on the more extent, which is not conducive to expanding its strategic space and independence.Withdrawal from the triangle region again released the intention to expand the strategic autonomous space of Cambodia through the signal of relying on the abroad to reduce the signal of relying on the outside world.
