Hun Sen's confession of CPP ineptitude: SRP commune chief defector more valuable than CPP provincial governors, deputy governors and commune chiefs

On Monday 09 June, Hun Sen indicated that he promoted a former SRP commune chief to the rank of advisor. During a visit to the province of Kampong Chhnang, Hun Sen displayed his current favorite pastime: announcing the list of SRP defectors joining the CPP.

Among the 6 new defectors, Sok Sambath, the Kilo Lekh 6 commune chief, in Phnom Penh, was promoted to a position in Hun Sen’s cabinet. His is a special case, Hun Sen underscored. “Normally, this position is reserved for provincial governors and deputy governors,” Hun Sen explained. But, Sok Sambath distinguished himself because he succeeded in winning the commune elections twice: in 2002 and in 2007. Furthermore, at each election, the number of votes the SRP obtained has improved each time.

For Hun Sen, the explanation for this success comes from the fact that “Sok Sambath showed that he is nice and generous” towards his constituents. “If all the commune chiefs acted like him, the country would move forward on the development path,” Hun Sen said.

Hun Sen is also adopting the first advice given by his new advisor. The latter wants to incite the local police to work more earnestly to fight against the “gangsters – the Bang Thom.” Hun Sen immediately approved this choice. [KI-Media note: Does it mean that CPP officials never promote the fight against Bang Thom gangs in the past?]

Local police officers are useless. They did as gangster, all of them are gangster include Hun Sen. How can they crack down its relatives.

I knew Sok Sambath very well, he served the best for local people. All thought, he have a small fund from commune fund but he can lead the people to develope instrasture in the communce as well as other CPP commune which there chief have million dollars from corruption with strong support from CPP elites. However, it shock to me once I heard that he defected to CPP. Personally I think it is CPP tactic, and the weak leadership in SRP.
