The former King of Cambodia announced on his website that he is battling cancer for the third time. However, Norodom Sihanouk is optimistic, and believes he will beat the disease.
The 86 year old Sihanouk is being treated in China, and will not be returning to Cambodia in February as planned.
The former Cambodian King was once a giant in his country’s politics for sixty years. During that time, he saw Cambodia’s fight for independence from France, as well as the Khmer Rouge terror.
Sihanouk stepped down as King in 2004 due to health problems. He was succeeded by his son, Norodom Sihamoni.
