On 23 April, a violence took place between fisheries officials and the fishermen. During the incident, three Vietnamese fishermen was shot dead: (1) 32-year-old male Nguyen Vang Kong who is the husband of 31-year-old Vo Thi Bong who was also shot dead, and 30-year-old male Nguyen Van Huor. The three fishermen lived in Pram village, Kompong Luong commune, Krakor district.

A fisheries official from Koh Ka’ek told us that the violence took place because a group of Vietnamese fishermen went in to set their nets in a state reserved lot near Kompong Prak village, Sna Ansa commune, Krakor district, Pursat province. When the fisheries officials, in cooperation with the Koh Ka’ek commune police, went in to prevent them from setting nets, three boats loaded with Vietnamese fishermen (each boat has a crew of 5 fishermen) started ramming the fisheries boat, the fishermen also pulled out knives, axes, and swords trying to harm the fisheries officials. Surrounded by the Vietnamese fishermen, the officials then used their guns to defend themselves. The shooting led to the death of 3 Vietnamese fishermen. After the shooting, the Vietnamese fishermen took their boats and went to the fisheries administrative office in Kompong Luong commune, and burnt it down. The blaze also destroyed the home of a villager living nearby.

On 24 April, General Mok Chito, the criminal police chief, and a number of officials went in to investigate the incident.

I am keeping my eyes on to see the measures that Cambodian government, which is running by Hun Sen, tackles with this issue. Are they going to arrest Cambodian officers or Vietnamese immigrants?

If they are arresting Cambodian officers, I am not surprised by that because Hun Sen is serving Vietnamese government. However, Cambodian people would not let them do whatever they want anymore. Remember!

The more Vietnamese stay the more Cambodia will be fuck up. The figures of illegal Vietnamese is already topping 5 millions and I'm sure they will over breed and vietnamize all Khmer soon.

What they think who they are!
They are migrant (not even sure if they are legal) to live in a foreign country. They violated the law of that country. They burned down the authority office.

If the police do not have the gut to put those behind bars. Oh...no you gotta be kidding, man.

Just wondering why Mok Chito becomes involving in this case. Don't tell me that you are worried about safety of Vietname fishermen more than Cambodian.

Can't wait to see result in the following days.

Something fishy alright. They arrested a 23 years old VC who is the son a couple that was shot dead by the officials. The couple age is 32 and 31 years old. Damn, these VC start f__king at an early age. No wonder, they have kids like dogs.

The Cambodian gov't. has to be very careful with this issue. It took only a few of them to create this much mess, wait until 5 millions of them rise up in Cambodia. Thanks.

Speed man, general Mok Chito, who goes to investigate very quick like F16 fighter plane. If Khmer died like that, this general won't bother to go and investigate. Khmer's life is cheaper than Hanoi' life. He must fuck Viet girls.

haha 10:13, its your ass who cares and defend them everythime. So you going to switch side on yourself now?

Those are not your Khmer-Youns, (the word you always use to refer to Khmer Krom). Those are your daring brothers in blood.

Maybe if serves good to have the people involved's identity misunderstood like this, perhaps it would benefit Khmer Krom to say they are Vietnamese citizens being abuse by Cambodia, being fool, then Hanoi would tell Cambodia, lay your fucken hands of my people! haha.

Hmmm. Well, i wouldn't be so hopeful, only a fool like 10:13 can not see the difference.

The carefull measures need to be taken. We have to solve the problem peacefully. It is unacceptable when foreigners come and live in Cambodia and don't respect the country rules. Maybe it is the failure of the integration process or segregationism of those foreigners.
Every one is equal to obey the law and rules.
But, the problem is also from the heavy handed measures based on ethnic confrontation of our local armed forces.

10:51, stop saying that. Ah Khmer-
Yuon is not our brothers. They
are a secessionist. That is why
they lost their land. And now they
are here to split Cambodia into
thousand bits and pieces, so that
we can be easily conquered by
foreigners. Remember, they opposed
us for supporting the "One Vietnam
Policy".
