Dispute over 25-cm land leads to murder, suicide

Phnom Penh, Nov 6 (DPA) A dispute over a 25-centimetre strip of land in Cambodia ended with a man murdering his brother and sister-in-law and then committing suicide, media reports said Thursday.

Police in Prey Kanlaong province said 42-year-old Chev Thuy fatally stabbed his brother and sister-in-law and then hanged himself Tuesday after a drawn-out argument over the inherited parcel of land.

The Phnom Penh Post reported the family had previously asked the local land authority to help resolve the dispute but were unhappy with its resolution.

Rights organization Adhoc said it would investigate the case to see if further action by the authority could have prevented the deaths.

HUN SEN doesn't want to see his people have education. If most Khmer not all have education HUN SEN or CPP will not last this long. They have to contain Khmer with limited education.

The more we educate ourself the more the CPP can't control us.

They only let us see or know when they can. Just like a frog in the well it can only see the circle of the well not the whole horizon.

Khmer PP,

Cambodia improving for entertainment: games, casino, drugs and
prostitution, but not for education and the living condition for the poor.

The way I see in the next 20 to 30 years Cambodians only
5% to 10% that have better education another 5% barely read and write,
The rest 80% is dumb. How Cambodians protect and improve their
country in the near future?

Cambodia needs change.
Cambodia need well educate leader to run the country.

This is not yuon's faut, the killing of the journalist Sembo is yuon Ho Lung Doc who did that. We smell yuon miles away, don't worry.

We also know that Bunrany is yuon. Yuon Hanoi arrange the marriage between her and Hun Sen.
