SRP activists and youths in North America plan to hold a peaceful demonstration to protest against the lifting of Sam Rainsy's immunity.

Ou Chuon Y, a SRP activist in Washington DC, told RFA that: "Our goal is to protest against the Cambodian National Assembly and the Yuons who invade Khmer territories, who encroach on Khmer land and grab rice fields belonging to Khmer farmers! We will demonstrate in front of all the embassies on Saturday 28 November, starting at 11AM. I am in charge of inviting everybody who believes that the lifting of [Sam Rainsy's] immunity is illegal. Please attend the demonstration."

SRP youth members in Canada also plan to hold a peaceful demonstration for the same reason. However, in Canada, the demonstration will be held in front of the Canadian parliament building in Ottawa, and it will also be held on 28 November 2009 starting from 11AM to 3PM, just like the one in Washington DC. The demonstrators will ask the Canadian parliament to help intervene to find justice for Sam Rainsy.

On 16 November 2009, the Cambodian National Assembly decided to lift Sam Rainsy's immunity to allow the Svay Rieng provincial court to investigate the lawsuit case brought up by the Chantrea district authority which accused Sam Rainsy of destroying public properties. On 25 October 2009, Sam Rainsy uprooted border post stakes out of rice fields belonging to Cambodian farmers living in Samrong commune, Chantrea district, Svay Rieng province. The Cambodian and Viet authorities claimed that these are temporary border posts delimiting Cambodia and Vietnam.

Please protest in France, and the EU countries as well. Also in Australia and New Zealand.

I urge all Khmers join hands to resist Viets' domination on Khmer's soil and waters.

Organize to protest at Viet embassies around the world as well, for their continued political interference in Cambodia.

Jey Yoh Jeat Khmer!

For the very 1st time, the RGC got nailed on the issue of whose interests it really serves? Sam Rainsy defends Khmers while Hun Sen gov't persecute its very own people to please its master. The situation is getting far worse and worse now. RGC, from being a servant to a true slave of Hanoi. The fact speaks for itself. Awakening Khmers.
