The Cambodian Parliament delegation did not meet with former Monk Tim Sakhorn during its one week visit to South Vietnam. The main goal of the visit was to seek for the immediate release of Monk Tim Sakhorn.
At his arrival in the afternoon of Monday, Son Chhay, the leader of the Cambodian Parliament delegation, expressed his extreme disappointment. However, a representative of the central committee of the Vietnamese Communist Party (VCP) promised that he will push for the release of Monk Tim Sakhorn and 5 other Khmer Krom monks in the near future.
Son Chhay said: “When we arrived there, they (the Vietnamese) change everything, claiming that the jail cannot be entered and they need time to organize for the meeting etc… Therefore, we see that they change their mind right away, they turn an agreement into a refusal, I am very disappointed with this. However, Son Song Son promised me that he will find a way to lessen the sentence (handed down to Monk Tim Sakhorn) because the Vietnamese tribunal has two occasions, each year, to issue pardon or lessen the sentence.”
During its visit, the 8-member delegation of the National Assembly committee for foreign affairs met with the Vietnamese Assembly president. During the meeting on the cooperation between the two countries, the Cambodian delegation demanded for a resolution on the Yali Dam issue which affects the livelihood of Cambodian people in the northeast of Cambodia.
The Cambodian delegation claimed that even though it wanted to visit a number Cambodian pagodas located in Preah Trapeang and Khleang provinces, the visits were diverted to other pagodas organized by the Vietnamese authority. Nevertheless, the Cambodian delegation noted the extreme hardship suffered by Khmer Krom people living there, and at the end, Son Song Son, a member of VCP central committee and vice-chairman of the southwest zone, discussed about the release of Monk Tim Sakhorn and the guarantee of the rights of Khmer Krom people.
Regarding the demands for the release of Khmer Krom monks during the Cambodian Parliament delegation visit, Venerable Thach Bin added: “We cannot remain idle. We only have to depend on the International community to demand and pressure Vietnam to urgently pardon Venerable Tim Sakhorn and the other 5 (Khmer Krom) monks in the near future. Next month, there will be a meeting in Geneva to raise the issue of Human Rights violations in Kampuchea Krom (South Vietnam).”
This is the very first official delegation undertaken by the Cambodian Parliament delegation to the former land of Kampuchea Krom in the past 30-year. This visit will pave the way for relatives of Monk Tim Sakhorn to visit him in the near future.

Hey a hun sen/shit! this is what Khmers call the best relationSHIT and cooperaSHIT w/vietcong. a youns has never, ever respected and cooperated w/you Khmers....and how long are you/hun shit going to hold a youns-dick???????????
Even though it was a bit of headway to helping the Monk Tim Sakhorn and other Khmers in Southern Cambodian, what is now Southern Vietnam; I, personally would like to say "Thank You" to Mr. Son Chhay and the rest of the delegations who involved. It is only natural that we help each other in hard time like this for any of our surviving gene, otherwise we might as well give everything to the Vietnamese who would gladly accepted.
Son Chhey's not learning anything from yuon hanoi yet.
Here's yuon theory, So Chhay:
"What's yuon said don't believe, you must observe what's yuon do"
That theory yuon have put to practiced since 1400A.D. in order to swallowed Champa.
Keep speaking up Mr. Son Chay; you keep trying to solve this case with the Vietnamese government consistently. We hope you will get a positive result in the near future as long as you continue to raise this question. Diplomatic solution needs time and consistency of demand; you never expect something happens in the first round of negotiation. We are empressed that you are courageous to raise abott Thim Sakhorn's case in front of Vietnamese leaders. It shows Vietnamese and the world that Khmer can take care Khmer like other people in the world too.
What is a bunch of lip-service lovers? Hahaha, LOL, hahaha,
Ah Chkout (Son Shhay) came back empty handed as usual, hahaha, ROFLMAO, hahaha....
Only one man can do the job, Fools, and all know who that is.
Khmer people need to burn down the Hanoi embassy in Phnom Penh. This communist Hanoi embassy is useless for Cambodia. P.S. don't trust the Vietnamese OK!
Well, so far so good with trusting Vietnamese and ignoring Ah Khmer-Yuon lakaun bassac. We love it, love it, love it.
I told you! The Vietcong is not to be trusted in any way shape or form and for the fucken Vietcong to treat Cambodian leaders like little children can't be forgiven and I called for political retaliation! From now on, Cambodian leaders can adopt the same behavior as the Vietcong! The Vietcong friendship is destroying Cambodia sovereignty when AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave allowed the Vietcong to trample on Cambodian people right!
I demand political retaliation!
No, that will allowed Ah Khmer-Yuon criminald to get away with murder.
The bottom line is Khmer leaders are always stupid and dumb like monkey and it starts from the stupid king and three CPP monkeys. Ah Hanoi slabbed the 8 delegates in the faces. The Viet don't respect Khmer, but Ah Khmer leaders respect Ah Youn.
IT'S TIME TO CHANGE REGIME TO SLAB AH YOUN BACK.
7.16AM
We all know that only one man can do, but that man is a full time viet servant, so he can't help any khmer not to mention about khmer krom. Another man can, is the king but is in full time meditation , forgetting about his bible' constitution'.Please suggest if anyone else is available, or yourself ?????.
Nope, our PM ain't no Viet slave, just as the UK PM, US prez., ..., or French prez. isn't.
The only slaves in the region is Ah pathetic Khmer-Yuon criminals who shamelessly begging everyone over and over nonstop for help.
Hey! I thought the Vietcong government denies the existence of the Khmer Krom in 1980 during the occupation of Cambodia!
What happen now? Are you lying or the Vietcong government is lying?
No, we are not lying. There is no such thing as Khmer Krom, only Yuon and Ah Khmer-Yuon in Vietnam.
Hahahah, veryfunny 12:55. Khmer Krom become to Youn or Khmer Youn, slave class. And real Youn become to Vietnamese, supper class and Khmer helper. Hahahaha
