SAM RAINSY’S INTERVIEW WITH AN ENGLISH-LANGUAGE NEWSPAPER
On 28 December 2009, the following questions from The Cambodia Daily (Q) were answered by Sam Rainsy (A).
Q. I understand this morning was your scheduled court appearance in Svay Rieng. Your attorney told us yesterday he would appear in court in your place. I am wondering if you have heard any news from the meeting.
A. See attached document. The handwritten annotation is from the judge. My lawyer took the initiative to ask for a delay in court appearance. The judge refused today to grant the delay. Actually, I don't care about the delay. The sooner the better. We can now better see the real face of the Cambodian authorities.
Q. What will happen now that you have missed your court date?
A. An order to the police to forcefully bring me to court is imminent.
Q. Have you been in contact with your lawyer? What will you do if you are found guilty? Will you remain overseas if so?
A. No doubt, I will be found guilty. The verdict is known in advance like with any kangaroo court. But my only crime was my doing my duty as a Member of Parliament in helping powerless and distressed people. Justice cannot be rendered by and before such a court. I will seek justice by other (political and diplomatic) means. I don't mean justice for Sam Rainsy, but justice for countless Cambodian farmers who are victims of land confiscation because of either internal or external reasons. On top of losing their land, some of those farmers are being jailed because they dared protest the first injustice.
Q. Have you heard of any other witnesses missing their court appearances out of fear of being arrested?
A. Yes, there are at least three of them, not only witnesses but also and above all victims of land grab. I am closely following their cases.
[End]

After all, we're no longer in the dark ages, but this kangaroo government are dictated by a dark ages country vietnam.
Vietnam don't know when enough is enough. Remember Nazi germany, Rome....They all collapsed.
Thanks 6:39Pm You have a brilliant opinion about Cambodia and you absolutely right . Also Mexico under the Spanish colonized more than five hundred years, they lose everything languages , religion, culture , traditional and crossed breed, but at the end the Mexican nationalist like you and me to Cambodia , stood up now Mexico is independent and fast growing populate than others nation around the globe.
Excellent interview, Mr. Sam Rainsy! What travesty of justice! Do these CPP tyrants have no shame? It would be irresponsible for you if you lose your freedom or your life, as we need you as our leader!
Sam Rainsy can kiss his political career good bye. Unless he will beg Hun Sen for mercy again. He did it before, so he may does it again.
Mr. Sam Rainsy, wishing you a happy new year! You have our support and confidence!
cambodia court is no different from viet court . if you decide to face trial in cambodia, do me a favour
please DONOT ASK,SAM-DACH,CHEA SIM,HENG SAMRIN,AND HUN SEN, becauce recently, those cock-sucker has just promoted five golden stars,from thire master ,so you have to ask mayority of cambodia peaple
before you go to court. for me,you don't have to go.becauce court system in our courtry are fucked
"We can now better see the real face of the Cambodian authorities".
"Thugs, thieves of the Nation".
I call The royal government of cambodia' operating by leaders of gangsters, mobsters and thievers.
So, justice in cambodia can't be found.
Now, Hun Sen knows that Khmers hate him, hate his family members, hate CPP party.
He knows that Khmers will not vote for CCP party anymore.
He asks his family members to be prepared for that.
11:00PM1, ah kwack know it long ago that big majority of Cambodian hate him that why motherfucker has had more than 5,000 body guard!
And motherfucker plane to stay as PM forever by stealing and cheating!
May lightning take him just like it did to ah Hok landy, but this time in broadday light!

Don't worry Khmers,
bad Khmers will be dead one by one,
they will fight each others without end,
because
they are bad,
they betray their country,
they betray their people.
Justice, justice, there is no justice in human ruler heart driven by the most evil force like in Cambodia today.
BUT DO NOT FORGET TO CRY OUT FOR JUSTICE FROM ABOVE, FROM GOD. SHOULD PRAY FOR HIS JUSTICE THAT WITHOUT FAIL WILL PREVAIL. IN HIS DUE TIME. NOT WITH OUR TIME AND TERM.
Fugitive former SRP's MP Mr. Sam Rainsy, you can scream, shout, howl, yell, bark, and do what ever you want from France but your political carrer in Cambodia is over, unless you are brave enough to spend some time in Prey Sar Prison, then after your time served may be you can be a Cambodian politician again.
