Schedule for worldwide Khmer Krom demonstrations

In response to the appeal by Mr. Thach Ngoc Thach, President of the Khmer Kampuchea-Krom Federation (KKF), Khmer Krom around the world are gathering in force to once again protest for the release of Venerable Tim Sakhorn after Vietnamese officials claim that he was entering Vietnam illegally.

Khmer Krom's activities are legitimately guaranteed by the international standard of law and human rights convention.

Their voice is heard and recognized by the international community as the cause to protect their basic rights. The recent defrocking of Venerable Tim Sakhorn must be condemned by the national and international standard of law and constitution.

Indigenous people are under oppressed and extinction policy of the oppressors in their own original land is really injustice and hurtful....

Let the world know that Cambodia is not an Independent country now. Vietnam is infering into Cambodia using puppet CPP as their assinated tools to eliminate the Khmer Patriots.
