Win-Win Monument bas-relief
This photograph shows details of the UNTAC-themed bas-relief on the 117-metre-long engraved base of the Win-Win Monument, with a focus on UN vehicles and military personnel. The Win-Win Monument complex – photographed here in January 2020 – was inaugurated in December 2018 to mark the twentieth anniversary of the end of the post-Democratic Kampuchea civil war, with the final defection of the remaining Khmer Rouge factions, thanks to the DIFID policy (“Divide, Isolate, Finish, Integrate, Develop”) also known as the “Win Win” policy of Prime Minister Hun Sen.

輝煌東亞之道
這張明信片的插畫由作品豐富的日本畫家川島理一郎設計，描繪一名日本士兵與中國人民一同慶祝「輝煌東亞之道」。有趣的是畫中出現中華民國國旗（看似由身穿白衣的男孩拿著），而其他的人則是手持「五色旗」。直至1940年3月為止，中華民國維新政府仍舊使用「五色旗」，但後來為中華民國國旗所取代，也是當時汪精衛的南京政府所使用的國旗。上述跡象指出這張明信片在1940年3月前出版，但是過了一陣子後才寄出。

Mao Zedong with Pol Pot and Ieng Sary
This picture shows Mao Zedong with Pol Pot and Ieng Sary during the visit of the Khmer Rouge leaders to Beijing in June 1975. It was featured in the publication (French and English versions) entitled The People’s Republic of Kampuchea (1979). According to the caption which accompanied the image in that publication, the photograph was part of the archives found by the Vietnamese and Kampuchea United Front for National Salvation troops at the Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Kampuchea (Office code 870). Mao is shown congratulating Ieng Sary and Pol Pot and, according to the original caption, saying: “Comrades, you have achieved a prodigious victory. In one go, no more classes!” This photograph is part of the collection held by the Agence Khmère de Presse (AKP) and Cambodia’s Ministry of Information. This collection, which documents the early years of the People’s Republic of Kampuchea as photographed by the Vietnamese and a small team of Cambodian photographers, has not yet been classified or indexed.
