Message from President Sam Rainsy to Cambodian Compatriots
On the occasion of the 27 July 2008 General Election
On the occasion of the 27 July 2008 General Election
I, Sam Rainsy, President of the Sam Rainsy Party, am calling to all our Compatriots to all go to vote on Sunday 27 July 2008.
Your vote is very important, because it is a historical event for Cambodian people to determine the destiny of our nation, and each one of us also has the opportunity to determine our own future.
Cambodia needs change, in particular, a change in leadership. If there is no change in leadership, people living at the grass root levels, in villages, communes, districts, will still remain poor. This poverty stems from the corruption of the current country leaders. Through this corruption, these leaders stole the nation and the public assets – assets that belong to all us – and appropriate them for themselves, or they administer these assets only to serve their group’s benefits. A small group of current leaders, their families, and their clan are becoming very rich and, as each day goes by, their wealth keeps on increasing. But, for us, the ordinary citizens, we still remain poor, and we are getting even poorer. Wherever there is corruption, injustice is also present, and this led to the oppression of ordinary citizens who can no longer escape poverty. In order to escape poverty, we must get rid of corruption. In order to get rid of corruption, and to bring true prosperity to the nation, we must change the current leaders by voting for the Sam Rainsy Party.
I am asking all our Compatriots to vote for the Sam Rainsy Party. The SRP is determined to defend your votes and prevent them from being cheated through any dishonest activities. To this end, the SRP has fanned our party agents in all polling and vote counting stations in the country. SRP party agents are alert and courageous, they do not fear threat, they cannot be bought, and they are determined to faithfully protect the ballots as expressed by the voters, and they will prevent any ballot cheating.
I am praising and thanking in advance the alertness and the faithfulness of SRP party agents to the people and the nation, by constantly abiding to integrity, truth and justice.
I am confident that the good will prevail over evil. In order to obtain justice, in order for our livelihood to be prosperous, in order for our lands to be preserved, I am asking all our Compatriots to vote for the Sam Rainsy party. Vote for the SRP in order to get decent jobs with decent pay, in order to lower the price of goods, in particular the price of gasoline, fertilizer, and in order to obtain free healthcare.
Only the SRP has a 12-year record of fighting and we have strong support all over the country to win over the current ruling party.
I am asking all our nationalist and justice-loving Compatriots to put to their votes to good use, and provide their support by voting for the Sam Rainsy Party only in order to guarantee victory over the corrupt officials of the dictatorial regime, lackey of the foreigners. A victory for the Sam Rainsy Party is a victory for all the Cambodian people.
The Sam Rainsy Party bears the number 9 and it is represented by a candle light logo.
Thank you!

Yes, Vote for CPP, not Ah Scam Rainxy.
I wish, can't hope to happen or not sure when to happen though, that the new elected government will adopt and implement the anti-corruption law, immigration law and turn this poor country to none-persistece of impunity and everyone must abide by the laws but not only shit-orders from the top all the time.
God bless Cambodia!!!!!!!

You idiots Khmer leaders here still donot understand!!!!!!!! Think about this idiots? What is the number of troop from Thailand? Is it on rise or decrease? Are they launching attacks? Yes that's the possible answer. And now you idiots cox of the fear and your selfish councerns of losing vote bow your head and give another concession to Thai. You idiots realized that how weak and chicken and non-diplomatic you are when surrender yourself to the enemies all the time? How about if this talks fail again and you went to UN again for their intervention? How stupid and shameless you idiots are!!!!!! or you will concede land to Thai or let Thai share interests on your fucking soil and temple?????

On Monday July 28th 2008,
Samdech Preah Maha Decho Hun Sen will become the nation HERO and the Prime Minister. The CPP is the principle of the Cambodia, the master in politics, the strategist of the problems solving, the role model of all parties. The wins wins with none stop ruling party.
The security in the country is safe, the economy is growing, the stability is smooth and peaceful.
The investors is high, the development growing all over the country, The people happy of living in Cambodia.
The looser may go back home to where they come from with empty seats in the Assembly of ruling.
Samdech Preah Maha Decho Hun Sen is a Cambodian HERO the Sun Of Cambodia, the great grand sun of Hun Tein the King ruling Cambodia.
Down SRP, HRP, Func, Norodom and many others.... Chaos.
Yes vote for Sam Rainsy for freedom.
"But, for us, the ordinary citizens, we still remain poor, and we are getting even poorer"
Yes you are a very poor citizen, aren't you Sam?!!
12.28pm,
get fucked ah siam, get out of pvh.
I'm 12:28 and no, I'm not a 'Siam'( I'm totally against what the Thais are doing).. I'm just someone in Cambodia who sees Sam Racist for what he truly is.
Dear Ceepeepee voters,
Pelease vote for CPP and one day CPP authorithy will grab your land after they win election.
Please give power to them to grab your land and properties.
Dear Khmer Civilization,
I disagree with your comment since I too feel that you lack the full understand of what is really going on in Cambodia. I assure you that "I am not wrog." Just go to Cambodia and visit just 2 kilometers from PP and you will see the facts. Is there anything else that you intend to know? Open your eyes and minds to the facts, you will then understand why I am so adamently against CPP - because I love Cambodia. Thus, my people must know and understand the facts. Aren't those facts enough? If you ever question my statement, shouldn't I question your motive, too? Why are try to mar the facts. Just as you wrote, please prove to me and other readers of how truthul your comment is - see below:
QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ
1) the name of party is name of person (Non Democratic in the party).
2) the chief party is chief forever(No manda of chief party or prime minister candidat).
3) cheating people by treat an illness without pay money and make labor for all the people in whole the country and so on (no country in world can do it perfeclly).
AREN'T YOU BIASED? KHMER CIVILIZATION -
QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ
Your comment, despite being stated of non-affiliate with CPP, still reveals your ill-content toward SRP. The qustion is why? Furthermore, when is the last time speaking the truth is wrong? Have you truly understand your question?
Trust me, there are more to write the negativism of CPP. I do not know whether you know how much Hun Sen and CPP do to Cambodia. I was there and knew too well. Have you heard about Circular 351 and Project K-5 under the ordinant ordinance of Hun Sen and his associates? Have you heard how many were killed? The list can go on, but these are what we are talking about. What we are talking now is principle and conscience of Cambodian.
I agree with your courteous commnent and diagreement. Since I dare to put it in public view, I too expect to withstand skepticism. Yet, please do not tell me or anyone of us to stop "writing and thinking" whatever we have in our heart. This is USA and we are free to express.
If you intend, I do not mind to continue our discourse in a civilized manner. More than anything else, one thing you should know that I love Cambodia with all my heart and soul. Thus, I will continue speaking the truth -
Sincerely,
Chhan
