Opposition Leader’s Immunity Restored

By Sok Khemara, VOA Khmer
Original report from Washington
11 March 2009


Opposition leader Sam Rainsy on Tuesday saw his parliamentary immunity restored, after he paid around $2,500 in outstanding election-period fines.

The National Assembly’s Permanent Committee voted to restore his protective status, which had been revoked since Feb. 26 following his refusal to pay fines stemming from allegedly disparaging remarks about ruling party leaders during 2008 election campaigning.

Opposition lawmaker Son Chhay welcomed the decision, calling it a “correction” of the committee’s earlier decision, “which they should not do again in the future.”

Opposition leaders had said the revoking of immunity by Permanent Committee was unconstitutional, a position rejected by lawmakers of the ruling Cambodian People’s Party.

“What the opposition raised seems to look down on the 12 members of the committee,” said CPP lawmaker Cheam Yiep, who is a member of the Permanent Committee. “I have been a member of parliament for a long time and have enough experience and competence.”

Your uncle Sam is ah yong Western world. His ass would sell Khmer out as quick if not quicker than Lon Nol if he was to become the head of Cambodia.

Remember how his father got executed for the crime of treason during Sihanouk era? An apple doesn't fall father from its tree. Like father like son.

The secretary of Mr Sam rainsy party needs to write to the king for the legal role of the opposition party leader. In multi-parties system, the Chairman of the National Assembly is just a faciliator of the house. He is ranking smaller than opposition party leader. We must understand that after the king, The Prime Minister, it is opposition leader. The house ( parliament budget should split the fund shared by CPP members, ARP party, HRP, NRP and funcipec by number of each party seats in the parliament.
The SRP must also force the government to recognise the police force , military force and all public servants are belong to the state and not belonging of CPP. THe Parliament must also appoint a commissioner call State services commissioner to look after all state servesmen and state serviceswomen. The Prime Minister should not has direct ordered to all public servants at all. If he does, he must resign as abuses of his duty. Areak Prey

Dear Poster 9:21AM,
This poster 5:50AM is very scared of western civilisation and culture because westerners will destroy all corruptions and all robers. He said he hates westerners but he likes very much USA dollars and Euro. I hope he must change all his dollars into Dong if he is so confidence with his boss vietcong. He shouldn't ear his suite and his pant. They are all Europeans. Areak Prey

Well, when you work hard, sometime you get tired. There is nothing wrong with a little nap break now and then.

Don't pay attention to the Youn slave. You have to understand that these people have been brain washed by their master in a very young age. Due to their limited education, poor up bringing and never been exposed to the real world, not a whole lot you can expect from them. These people are sub-human with a very small gray matter.

Khmer Rouge Regime is a genocide organization.
