I am very disappointed with this Khmer Rouge tribunal in which the personal have earned monies like UN diplomates but they allow Cambodian citizen to queu waiting outside of chamber like uncivilised country. They should give our Cambodian citizen with full respect by allowing them to sit in good confortable chair to watch the process of the court. This is a not of court of international standard at all. In an international standard court, all observers should have good seat and are not standing all over the places like that !! Areak Prey

At the same time, the suspect criminal shouldn't allow to wear ordinary clothe. She should be forced to wear prison uniform with hand cuffs on at all the time. Her criminal activities have exceded many hundred times worst than Heng Pov. Why Heng Pov has to wear prison uniform and with hand cuffs. Why now with this witch Ieng Thirith? I am very disappointing. It is a cheet to the victims. Areak Prey

Why you want to be out on bail, while you and your husband still in power, you imprisoned all Khmer people in a great jail without wall, and just killed us of.

In 1976 You and your husband Ieng Sary, did order to kille 82 Khmer pilots who just returned back from Aranh Prateth, Thailand. They were fusilladed in front of the Japanese Agricultural Experimental Station in Phnom Thom Phnom Toch,Mongkul Bori.

Your hands and your husband's hand were covered with Khmer innocents' blood.

You did work for the Viet Agressers. You killed your own people, so Viet illegal immigrants
can grab all Khmer Mother Lands.

You and your husband, along with Sdec Kh'bot Cheat Sihanouk, deserve to be hanged as have been done for the nazi criminals against Humanity.

Pictures were taken outside the chamber while people are queuing for security screening before allowing to be inside, therefore it is unwise for you to state that's not up to international standard.

Picture - She has shown no sign of diturbant, remorse or guilty feeling at all. She seemed relax and listened to what judges would say to her.

This is a hybrid court consisted of international and local judges, so does other hybrid court in the former african country, they had never marched a person in with handcuff, prison uniform and I believed that criminal in NZ wears suit and tie when appeared in court, aren't they?

What I have said before is to promote ideas of how to give our people with full respect and with full human right. It is very rare to have any criminal in anywhere around the world to have committed a crime compare to the khmer rouge Leaders. Therefore we should make these criminals to receive all embarrassing to the full extend. We should put them in hand cuffs, force them to wear prison uniform and each of them must have a placard with their name, their age and their role. We have to promote our hatre to these violence leaders. Areak Prey

Arak Prey;

Slobodan Molosovic was not far off from the Pol Pot regime, where plenty war crimes against the humanity, plenty of massive grave yards; however, every time he was in court until the day he died, he was in suit and no handcuff.

Your suggstion is unacceptable even in NZ society where you are currently living. Don't you gooing to tell me that if you find a former KR in Wellington or Auckland, you'd kill him/her and try to convince the NZ police that this is because "Hatred".

Can't you see what hatred and revenge do to our people and country.

Pol Pot didn't like Lon Nol, so ordinary people who had nothing to do with the regime was sent to death rows, sufferings.

On the aftermath of 7 January 1979, you may not see those people who killed by the rodinary people when they met those who used to treat people badly during the Pol Pot.

Please be considered when trying to promote hatred, personal beleived that hatred and revenge are actually driven people nut and our social fabric is at all time low.

i don't think anyone is promoting hatred or revenge and so on. i think every khmer person has the right to be angry and resentful, especically targeted toward the few so-called leaders or individual who were responsible for allowing or condoning such injustice act toward the whole cambodia during their stupid, backward revolutionary rule. don't you think khmers who suffered the loss have that rights to feel this way? i mean, who wouldn't, especially when you did not do anything wrong and they just abuse you and kill your entire family. this is why it is important that justice is served to commemorate the millions of khmer victims. and thank you everyone in the world community who have the heart of gold to help cambodia through this process. i'm sure i'm speaking for most cambodians. everyone over 35 years of age all went through this. how could we forget? it will take justice serves in order for some of us to forget or actually forgive. god bless.
