Son Ngoc Minh (1920–1972), also known as Achar Mean, was a Cambodian communist politician. He was the founder of the United Issarak Front. In 1950, he formally declared Cambodia's independence after claiming that the UIF controlled one third of the country. Along with Tou Samouth, Minh founded the Khmer People's Revolutionary Party (KPRP) in August 1951.
