Astrologer Saved Cambodia from Tsunami Disaster - Ex-King

The warning of an astrologer is said to have left Cambodia unscathed by the giant tsunami waves that devasted vast areas of South Asia last week, claiming the lives of about 155,000 people.
Former Cambodian king Norodom Sihanouk, who abdicated last year, claims an astrologer warned him that his country would be spared from an "ultra-catastrophic cataclysm" if proper rituals were conducted.
"My wife and I decided to spend several thousand dollars to organise these ceremonies so our country and our people could be spared such a catastrophe," the former king says in a message published at his website at www.norodomsihanouk.info.
