    As with Bin Chhin, the Constitutional Council headed by the very CPP EK Sam Ol will be subordinated to Hun Sen.

    Congratulation to the Excellency
    Ek Sam Ol for being elected to the
    new Khmer Constitutional Council.

    I am optimistic that council Ek
    Sam Ol will make all khmers very
    proud of him as council Bin Chhin
    was.

    May God help you to accomplish
    your duty very well for all
    Khmer citizens and Cambodia.

    Dude, there is no such thing on
    this planet as judicial
    independence when leading judge
    are appointed by the Excutive or
    Legislative body. There are always
    biases.

    Now if you want an independent,
    judicial system, the leading judge
    should be elected by the public,
    but the Excecutive or Legislative
    wont goes for that because then
    most of the lobbyists will go to
    the judge instead, and that will
    certainly to make the Excutive
    or Legislative become a poor slobs.
    Get it?
