Shame of Hun Sen government. Soon our Land will be taking away by Youn people.

Hun Sen like to be Youn slavery.

Kaun Khmer in blood

This is bad. No logging in the tropics can be sustained in 10 yrs. DIC is clearing the forests, and many Khmers will suffer from short and long-term ecological consequences. If the government has no intention to stop this, this government REALLY works for the sole benefits of Yuon.

I have no doubt about that. This is the benefits that Hun Sen regims give to Khmer people in our country, I can't not understand Hun Sen brain wash by Youn and become a monster. He have everything, why he still let Youn take our Land away, oh because of his power that have been support by Youn.

The truth is he became a khmer Leader, it from Khmer people that beleive in him not Youn.

Yeah, but trees can grow back in about 15 years. So what's a big deal?
