Preah Vihear : les bonzes à la rescousse
18-07-2008
Les officiels cambodgiens font appel aux religieux afin de faire fléchir les Thaïlandais. Pour le moment, cette tactique ne donne pas de résultat. Mais demain, une sommité bouddique est attendue au pied du temple.
Etrange ambiance à Preah Vihear… Depuis quatre jours, les soldats des deux camps se regardent en chien de faïence. Aucun coup de feu n’a été échangé, mais hier, jeudi 17 juillet, la tension est montée de deux crans. Dans la pagode, deux groupes de militaires, armés de fusil, se sont mis en joue mutuellement.
Raison de cette brusque montée de tension : des moines khmers ont apporté des offrandes dans le bâtiment. Une cinquantaine de soldats khmers ont alors fait irruption dans les lieux où se sont installés des Thaïlandais, depuis mardi 15 juillet. Les deux groupes se sont jaugés, armes au poing, pendant dix minutes interminables, avant que les commandants militaires des deux pays ne parviennent à désamorcer la situation.
Ce vendredi matin, les soldats khmers et thaïlandais, 400 de chaque côté, sont toujours postés à quelques mètres des uns et des autres. Certains bidasses des deux pays sont assis côte à côte, d’autres discutent ensemble.
Deux commandants thaïlandais et khmer se sont même publiquement serré la main. Ces marques d’attention n’occultent pas, toutefois, que chaque camp reste ferme sur ses positions. Phay Siphan, porte-parole du conseil des ministres cambodgien, est arrivé sur place, ce matin. « Je porte le message de notre premier ministre », a-t-il déclaré à sa sortie d’hélicoptère. Selon lui, Hun Sen « ne veut pas qu’une seule goutte de sang » soit versée.
Un groupe de travail du conseil des ministres est également présent. Il a demandé à des bonzes d’intervenir pour faire entendre raison aux Thaïlandais. Leur message est simple : « Khmers et Thaïlandais sont bouddhistes. Nous voulons la paix. Vous devez partir. » La rencontre n’a pas porté ses fruits, les soldats thaïlandais n’ont pas bougé d’un pouce.
Demain, samedi 19 juillet, une sommité bouddhiste est attendue sur le site, d’envergure nationale. Elle sera accompagnée d’une centaine de moines. Et pour cause : samedi débute la fête de Chol Vosa, marquant la retraite des bonzes. Cette personnalité pourra-t-elle débloquer la situation ?
A Preah Vihear, Leang Delux
Letter by Hun Sen Regarding Tim Sakhorn

Read the letter below about what the Cambodian Prime Minister, Mr Hun Sen said about Tim Sakhorn (Khmer version in attached files)
Translated by Socheata from KI Media
Royal Government of Cambodia
Nation – Religion – King
To His Majesty Norodom Sihanouk, the Father of the Khmer Nation
Revered Majesty,
I received your royal letter dated 06 July 2007 requesting the royal government of review the request made by Mr. Thach Setha, President of the Khmer Kampuchea-Krom Community, regarding the case of the defrocking and threats issued against Kampuchea Krom-born monk (the case of a monk by the name of Tim Sakhorn).
I want to inform your majesty that regarding this case, the royal government ordered a research on the spot, and we received the results below:
The abbot of the Boaknaram Pagoda, Venerable Tim Sakkhorn, is a Khmer Kampuchea Krom, he was born in Khla Kroheum village, Bachuk commune, Svay Tong province, An Giang province of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, he stayed at the Boaknaram pagoda (Phnom Den North pagoda) located in Phsar village, Phnom Den commune, Kirivong district, Takeo province. He used the pagoda to serve as a location for distribution of the Khmer Kampuchea-Krom Federation (KKF) magazines, each one of these having 14 to 20 pages and their content was incitement propaganda with the goal of creating disputes between Cambodia and Vietnam. Monk Tim Sakhorn was stubborn, he did not participate in meetings, and whatever he did in the pagoda, there was no proper legal authorization, such as displaying flags resembling the logo shown on the KKF magazine, building a concrete structure next to the interior fence of the pagoda, illegally ordaining a number of monks coming from Boeng Salang, attracting a large number of monks and pagoda members for the KKF overseas. All these actions caused displeasures among the monks in the pagoda, and a certain number of them left the order, while others asked to go study in another pagoda and stayed there, and the identity of 7 monks was not clear.
This monk and his gang demonstrated twice against the Cambodia-Vietnam friendship, and he even went on to fight with student monks and religious monks using axes and sticks to chase and axe 20 coordinating monks and causing injuries to 4 of them.
After reviewing the irregular activities of Monk Tim Sakhorn, supreme patriarch Tep Vong set up a meeting where 10 monks from all levels took part, to discuss and judge (Monk Tim Sakhorn), they agreed to defrock Bhikku Tim Sakhorn because he committed severe (violations) on the Buddhist rules for monks.
After his defrocking on 30 June 2007, the district authority, the district department of cult and religion, the commune council, and the pagoda committee searched the room of abbot Tim Sakhorn using a search warrant issued by the Takeo provincial court, they found a number of proofs, such as: knife, explicit VCDs, and 2 women in the room, and they also found a request letter written by Mr. Tim Sakhorn, asking to return back to his native place (Vietnam).
The spokesman of the Vietnamese embassy in Cambodia declared that Mr. Tim Sakhorn is currently being jailed by the authority of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, and the exact cause of the jailing, we do not know yet.
The above information is provided to your majesty for your information.
I take this opportunity to send you the best wishes, and may you live in peace from now on.
Please accept, your majesty, my faithful devotion.

The pro-Vietnamese Hun Sen regime clashes with Khmer Krom monks to defend their Vietnamese masters
Cambodian monks clash with riot police
Mon, 17 Dec 2007
DPA
Phnom Penh - Cambodian Buddhist monks from the ethnic minority Kampuchea Krom clashed with riot police in the capital Monday after they were refused permission to deliver a petition to the Vietnamese embassy. Around 50 monks in saffron robes arrived at the embassy mid-morning but were refused entry, according to one, and staged a peaceful sit-in outside the embassy for around an hour.
However things turned violent just as monks appeared to be complying with requests by Cambodian police to leave and suddenly turned and began throwing bottles and rocks at police before fleeing down one of the city's main streets.
Police said no arrests were made and there were only minor injuries on both sides.
"The monks only wanted to deliver a petition and the police behaved badly to them so they threw things," investigator for local human rights group Licadho, An Sam Ath, claimed.
"It is a great shame that the Cambodian government criticized Myanmar for attacking monks and then does the same thing to its own monks," he added, referring to bloody pro-democracy rallies in Myanmar's capital Yangon in September.
Sam Ath said the monks' petition included a demand for the release of Tim Sakhorn, a Kampuchea Krom monk jailed in neighbouring Vietnam after being defrocked in Cambodia.
Human rights groups decried Sakhorn's deportation and subsequent arrest, but the Cambodian government says he requested repatriation to Vietnam after he was defrocked for alleged sexual misdemeanors and abusing his position at his south-western provincial pagoda.
Police at the scene who declined to be named claimed the monks had orchestrated an attack and had not been provoked.
"Look around: do you see any rocks at the embassy? They brought things with them to throw at us. We don't want trouble with monks. We are Buddhists too. They are cruel to do this," one officer said.
Interior Ministry spokesman Khieu Sopheak declined comment on the rally. Government spokesman Khieu Kanharith said he was outside the capital and had no information on the events.
The Kampuchea Krom are ethnic Cambodians from the Mekong delta region which was ceded to Vietnam by France during negotiations for independence.
Human rights groups have alleged they suffer abuses and suppression at the hands of the Vietnamese government - charges Vietnam denies.
The pro-Vietnam Cambodian government has also scoffed at allegations it targets Kampuchea Krom, pointing out a number of highly positioned monks from that ethnic minority who operate freely.

The last time we Khmers knew ah Youn made Khmers to kill Khmers, now ah Siam sent their soldiers many are Khmer descent living in Thailand to kill their own brothers in Cambodia or to let their Khmer brothers in Cambodia to kill them. Just look at them, they speak Khmers the same.
