CPP MP Cheam Yeap reacted to a letter sent by Ander Johnson, IPU Secretary-general, demanding that the Cambodian National Assembly (NatAss) returns back Sam Rainsy’s immunity, by saying that this issue is not that important.
Nevertheless, he indicated that the path to this issue must follow the same road it started with.
Cheam Yeap said: “If Mr. Sam Rainsy paid beforehand, there wouldn’t be any problem, but he … he is overstepping the bounds (? or rude?), he created havoc so that he can go report and defame others by all means. This, I want to tell you in my name as a Cambodian son only, Mr. Sam Rainsy always do this many times already, when he is scared … when his immunity was lifted, he is scared, he goes on to report it at the IPU, he complained to the king in every way. So now, however the case came in, it should go out the same way, that is, right now, the (NatAss) permanent committee has decided to suspend his immunity so that the court can question him, as he already paid (his fine), he must send a letter to ask Samdach (Heng Samrin) to return back his immunity, that’s the end of it.”
Sam Rainsy, who is currently in France, indicated on 26 Feb that the NatAss permanent committee lifted his immunity, he already sent a letter to ask that his immunity be returned back to him, but no positive reply was provided back to him immediately.
Sam Rainsy said: “He shouldn’t say that, I wanted to exhaust all the legal means available, for a penal case, only the Supreme Court can have the final say. I am very puzzled, all the legal recourses have not been exhausted yet, but the NatAss hastily decided to lift my immunity, this is regarding the legal issue. When the National Election Committee wrote a letter to the court saying that it already received my fine payment, then the NatAss should end this case immediately, but they are in no hurry, they want to drag it on for weeks and months, as long as they want. I say that this action is not proper at all.”
On Monday of this week, a high-ranking official of the Cambodian ministry of Justice indicated that, up to then, he did not receive any request from the court to return back Sam Rainsy’s immunity yet.
It should be noted also that the Cambodian NatAss, in its desire to maintain a good relationship with the IPU that includes more than 200 parliaments membership worldwide, has decided to host a large IPU meeting in Phnom Penh next week.
Nevertheless, he indicated that the path to this issue must follow the same road it started with.

Ah Scam Rainxy is trying to shield himself from Hor Namhong defamation charge, which is why he wants his immunity back in a rush. Unfortunately, for him, he ain't going to escape any crime that he committed against any Khmer citizen. One way or another as Scam Rainxy will be in the slammer for a long time.
Cheam Yeap is Vietnamese same as my sister in law ,they know eachother very well.they went to serve Bo Doi before 1970,so whatever Cheam Youn says just ignore it.
Mr. Sam Rainsy need to be him self and not always look for support from others, when he got problems. As a Member of the National Assembly of the Kingdom needs to stay in the Country, clear and fight for his immunity.
He had planned this trip long before the immunity issue happened. It is just a coincidence.
Sam Rainsy is playing the political game to strengthen the rule of law in Cambodia. NEC as the CPP's agent has no legal status to send the verdict directly to the Ass. Sam Rainsy has filed his case to the Supreme Court but all those are belonging to CPP including the authoritarian Assembly...the Ass. took Sam Rainsy's case immediately to those parroting CPP's parliament members.
I admire Sam Rainsy's courage in bringing all his wisdom to draw attention both national and international attention to look at the shortfalls of legal implementation in Cambodia.
Your effort and work are right President Sam Rainsy.
Cambodian people are supporting your effort in strengthening and democratizing Cambodia. This act is too improve the legal development. It is more valuable than Hun Sen who always intimidate Cambodia through his rhetoric of civil war, social turmoil and other fearful...

Ah dog cheam yeap and his subordinates are under the control of ah yuon puppet hun sen. All these dogs will bite their own comrades one at a time or one by one. But they still have power to destroy Cambodia if no one bring the real and truth matters to the global institutions and UN security.
Ordinary khmer
Most of CPP members have been brainwhashed by the communism for too long. Therefore, they don't understand freedom of speeches and freedon of expression. They have abused the constitution by themself. They find very difficult to accept opposition party in the parliament. They have always regarded Opposition leader is a trouble maker. Indeed opposition leader is a also a Stateman. He deserve the same respect and the same personal level of security as the Prime Minister and deserve his income to more than any minister of the Government. Areak Prey
