15/12/2009

PHNOM PENH, Dec 15 (NNN-AKP) — Cambodian King-Father Norodom Sihanouk and Queen-Mother Norodom Monineath Sihanouk will return home in late March next year.

?In the end of March 2010, several days before the Khmer New Year, I will probably return to Kampuchea to live there with our King, our nation and our respected and beloved People,? said former king, who is currently in Beijing, China, for medical treatment, in his message dated Dec. 10.

He further said he will live in Phnom Penh, in Kantha Bopha residence at the Royal Palace, not in Siem Reap province as before.

Regarding his health, King-Father said he must stay in Beijing for another three months for the treatment of his cancer ?Lymphoma B? before coming back to the country.

The former monarchs had left for Beijing in early September this year for a routine medical check-up after a two-month stay in the province of Siem Reap. — NNN-AKP
