JUSTICE FOR A WORKERS' HERO
ON THE OCCASION OF THE 5 TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE KILLING OF CHEA VICHEA
JANUARY 22, 2009
On January 22, 2004, Chea Vichea, former President of the Free Trade Union of Workers of the Kingdom of Cambodia, was assassinated in cold blood after years of intimidation and threats by officials of the government. January 22, 2004 is a dark mark in the history of the movement of workers' in the Kingdom of Cambodia.
Five years have gone by but justice is yet to be delivered to Chea Vichea, his family and hundreds and thousands of workers who demand that the government reveal the truth behind this well-planned killing.
The release on bail of Born Samnang and Sok Sam Oeun, two innocent men who served five years in prison, by the Supreme Court on December 31, 2008, further demonstrates that the government of Cambodia is certain of their innocence but refuses to stop its travesty of justice.
We, Members of Parliament from the Sam Rainsy Party and the Human Rights Party join together with millions of Cambodians throughout the Kingdom of Cambodia who want justice and strongly appeal to the government to re-investigate this case, taking into account the testimonies provided by key witnesses.
On this occasion, we respectfully re-submit our petition to the highest consideration of His Majesty King Norodom Sihamoni that Chea Vichea be considered as a WORKERS' HERO for his lifelong dedication to the basic dignity of workers and the recognition of their contributions to the strength, prosperity and well-being of our nation.
Chea Vichea was a dedicated and fearless union leader with strong principles of justice. He gave birth to the workers' movement in Cambodia. The intent of his murder was to instill fear into the heart of the workers and inhibit them in their fight for justice. But instead his spirit lives on. We must continue the work Chea Vichea so nobly began for us, till just prevails.
Chea Vichea fought for justice for workers and our society as a whole. May we finally honor him as our hero.

Poor Chea Vichea and others peoples who were victims of CPP.
I have listen to VOA, 22nd january.
Sam Rainsy had saided that he is a solid person and support Democracy. Nobody can't buy him.
So I have one question to Sam Rainsy. The victims of CPP are not only Chea Vichea. We have so many : Ek Rasady, Piseth Pilika, and on, and on.. Especially the victims of the 1998 bombing...
So if he is solid and nobody can buy him, why did he drop the lawsuit of the 1998 bombing?
Khmer Canadian
Baseless, accusation by Ah potato digger (5:46) as usual. He's so dumb and stupid that he can't even see the perpetrator if he got beat up by him.
Khmer Canadian is asking a question.
5:50 AM use your brain...
As a matter of facts, why did Sam Rainsy drop the lawsuit of 1998's case ?
Poor Chea Vichea, a victim of Som Archsy and Kem Soakpee-kroy's propaganda.
What does Som Archsy and Kem Soakpee-kroy have in common? Use the poor guy Chea Vichea for their political stunt.
If Som Archsy and Kem Soakpee-kroy really want to find the murderer that killed Chea Vichea, they would do everything possible like hire private detector or try their best to look for this invidual merderer. These two scums just use this to publicise for their political gain. Go figure!
