About 10 Khmer Kampuchea Krom organizations and associations in Cambodia plan to meet each other on Wednesday to plan a peaceful demonstration in front of the Vietnamese embassy in Phnom Penh to demand that Hanoi frees former Khmer Krom monk Tim Sakhorn.
Kim Vannchheng, the president of the Khmer Kampuchea Krom Coordination Committee in Cambodia – one of the 10 organizations cited above – told RFA on Saturday that the meeting will be held to set the date for a peaceful demonstration in front of the Vietnamese embassy in Cambodia to demand that the Cambodian government opens a negotiation with the Vietnamese authority to released former Monk Tim Sakhorn.
Kim Vannchheng said: “No matter what, we will protest and urgently demand that the Cambodian government negotiates with the Yuon government to release Venerable Tim Sakhorn back to Cambodia. If the venerable is guilty, let the Cambodian government sentence him, he should not be deported to let a foreign country sentence him.”
Kim Vannchheng expects that 200 demonstrators, including Khmer Krom monks, Khmer Krom people, and Cambodian people, will participate in the protest. In addition to these 200 people, the demonstration will also be participated by Free Trade Union workers led by Chea Mony and Rong Chhun.
