Abstract:
Prince Sihanouk claims that Khmer Communist military forces are being severely hampered by inadequate supply support from the North Vietnamese and the Chinese. During an interview in Algiers on 17 September, Sihanouk stated that his "defense minister" in Cambodia recently informed him that lack of ammunition had kept the insurgents from taking Kompong Cham or any other major city. Sihanouk said that he passed on the insurgents' plea for more support to Hanoi and Peking, but that "so far we have had nothing or very little."
