A TV anchor attracted the ire of the royalist party after he criticized the latter for the upcoming election.

Keo Puth Rasmey, Funcinpec president, informed the press about his intention to sue and to organize a demonstration against Soy Sopheap, the star-anchor of the pro-government TV channel CTN. Funcinpec leaders did not appreciate some of the comments made by the anchorman regarding the monarchy and the royalist party.

“Soy Sopheap had seriously criticized my party on TV, and this is not the first time,” Keo Puth Rasmey said over the phone after he was alerted on the issue by Nhiek Bun Chhay, the party secretary-general.

On his end, Soy Sopheap tried to cool down the situation. “They should not link the two issues. I respect the monarchy, but I criticize Funcinpec,” he justified. Soy Sopheap explained that he ridiculed Funcinpec and NRP leaders for holding vote swearing ceremonies [party members are forced to swear that they will only vote for the party candidates] for their parties for the upcoming district and provincial councils. He added that, in the past, the two royalist parties have accused the CPP for the same practice, but that now, they are doing the same thing as the CPP.

This is for Mr. SOY Sopheap,

I heard you Sopheap had comment a lot on politics. I don't know actually who are you and why you dare to criticize some political parties in Cambodia? As i know you were before worked for Kyodo, anti-government, you! You are too flexible, but lack of national conscience, you know?

I would suggest Mr. Sopheap not to interfere with any political party because you are journalist, not belongeg to any political party. If you want, please resign from journalism and jump into your political life rather than being blamed by the public, and this will surely affects to other good journalists.

You are just a small journalist, not a leader of politicians, remember Mr. Sopheap, you are just a slave of the ruling party for your own interest!

Sopheap you are really bad journalist, and should be ashamed of the public of what you did and doing!

You are so pround of your speech on the CTN, you will also down and given up by the CTN at the last!

You had better consider and know who are you, Mr. Sopheap!

From a right journalist!

Mr. Soy Sauce, watch your back, because you wouldn't know who will strike you next. Again, watch your back.

Presumably, he thinks that Prime Minister Hun Sen backs him up, that's why he has the audacity to do what he does. Without the prime minister backing him up, he'll be dead by now.

What happens to Soy Sopheap the hero of Khmer when he went to Preah Vihear covering the news when Thai came into Khmer land?

All of you are fucking pussy hypocrites for going from praising the man to talking shit about him. But I guess there is nothing new to a group of headless dogs like you on here. Keep on barking, doggies. One day, you'll be served as an appetiser for your master Sam Rainsy for sure.

How about the three armies died during the clash?

A Sopheap just did his work because he is journalist, must to cover the stories. He is not particular than other journalists at all!

No no no no I am not Sam Rainsy supporter, guy! I never vote for any party! What i wrote here only to show you all the right thing!!!

i think even the monarchy have law that protects them from unruly people. perhaps this gentleman needs to be educated about the law that governs the monarcy of cambodia. i have nothing against anyone, i say what i see as injustice and wrong to do! that's all! god bless everyone.
