Translated from Khmer by Socheata

Pa Nguon Tieng, the director of the Cambodian Center for Independent Publication and president of the Voice of Democracy radio, signed a joint letter with 7 other journalist organizations and institutions that was sent to the king regarding Hang Chakra’s case. Pa Nguon Tieng indicated that, according to the information law, Hang Chakra did not commit any mistake as a journalist. As for the jailing of Hang Chakra, it is illegal, the journalist organizations indicated. Pa Nguon Tieng who was also jailed for accusing the government in 2005, indicated that the Phnom Penh municipal court decision to arrest Hang Chakra and send him to jail could be based on a number of irregularities, such as the closed door hearing of the case, and the immediate order issued to arrest Hang Chakra was the court decision not to respond to the delay request made by Hang Chakra’s lawyer.

In the name of the greed,even those considered to be intellectuals still sell their integrety. Code of conducts have to be in place to curb all these abusive behaviour. Penalty should be much higher than those with less knowledge.

Hun Sen's intent is to silence opposition or people who have different views. By putting one or two newspaper reporters in jail through his clown courts, he can scare off people who dare critisize him and his cronies. Freedom of expression exits only in paper whereas in practice there is none. The donor countries should just stop committing any money to his country and we will see how long his regime will last.
