Cambodia’s renovated naval base welcomes 2 Japanese warships despite US concerns
Published: 8:46pm, 19 Apr 2025



The Japanese embassy in Phnom Penh said that the visit is ‘a historically significant event’ that would ‘enhance trust and confidence’

Two Japanese warships made a port call at Cambodia’s Chinese-renovated naval base on Saturday, the Japanese embassy said, the first vessels to dock at the site that has raised concerns in Washington.

The United States has said the Ream Naval Base, located off Cambodia’s southern coast, could give China a key strategic position in the Gulf of Thailand near the disputed South China Sea, which Beijing claims almost in its entirety.

Cambodian senior officials have repeatedly denied that the base is for use by any single foreign power, following US media reports in 2022 saying the new facilities at Ream base – originally built partly with US funds – would be exclusively for the Chinese navy.

Prof Sach agrees 100% with your assessment

Most here realize that the decline of the empire was

finalized with the 2008 GFC as nothing was done to
fix the disease for only the symptoms were dealt with

Does Trump naming himself king answer this? He's already lost from where
I'm watching though many will say I have TDS. If he wins the "Biggest Depression Ever"
will be his legacy

let's flip coins LOL. make bets. no way. total tail risk bet, like trump made his whole life. odds of doing trumps life long tail risk and wining, against success, are amazing, way amazing. now what comes? the one time he loses at the game? and if he wins, what does he win. we the rest of the world will be impacted gravely.

Sadly the Stormtroopers are out in force and Trump loves it
