In my queries, I came to know that the Pol Pot forces retreated from its defence line last night. We could not find our Political Commission to join its formation but had to go ahead on our own to Phnom Penh. The Pol Pot authorities ran away to the west before the arrival of the Vietnamese volunteer army and the Cambodian revolutionary forces. It is very dangerous to go out because the Pol Pot army remnants are still at large. I took the time to write down about what I saw in Phnom Penh in its first days of liberation.
