Kingfather Norodom Sihanouk back home forever.

The body of former Cambodian king Norodom Sihanouk arrived Wednesday in Phnom Penh, where thousands of people have lined the streets to pay their respects.

King Sihanouk's body arrived in the Cambodian capital by plane from Beijing, where he died Monday of a heart attack at the age of 89 following a long battle with cancer.

Crowds of tearful mourners have gathered at the royal palace to welcome the ex-king's final homecoming and get a glimpse of his coffin. His body will lie in state at the palace for three months before a funeral and traditional Buddhist cremation are held.

Dear King, thank you for running away to China when we suffered in Cambodia. Hope you come back to this world again, and experience what other Cambodians had to go through under Pol Pot. Your best accomplishment in this world was having many wives, concubines, and children. Congratulation!
