Sam Rainsy Calls for Release of Two Farmers


By Heng Reaksmey, VOA Khmer
Original report from Phnom Penh
01 January 2010


Opposition leader Sam Rainsy said Friday he would abide by a court summons and return to the country if authorities release two people arrested in December over the alleged destruction of border markers in Svay Rieng province.
Sam Rainsy has had his parliamentary immunity suspended and has a warrant out for his arrest, following failure to appear in Svay Rieng court on Dec. 28.

He is facing charges of racial incitement and the destruction of property, for allegedly leading a group of villagers to uproot border markers in Chantrea district. Villagers there say they are facing the loss of farm land from Vietnamese encroachment.

Speaking to VOA Khmer by phone from France, Sam Rainsy said he would return to Cambodia “when the Khmer authorities release two farmers who have been in jail on Dec. 23 and return the land to those people.”

“I’m responsible for everything,” he said. “I pulled out the border markers. It does not involve those people.”

Sam Rainsy said the border issue was a political case that needed to be solved politically. “I will try to find a solution from the international community,” he said.

Koam Chhean, head of the Svay Rieng court, said Friday authorities had to hold the two farmers. “The law is the law,” he said. “Sam Rainsy understands the law too. Why did he say like that?”

Sam Rainsy you are a fugitive, you have no right to demand anything except to come to Cambodia to face your crime. The more you talk the more troubles you will have.

H.E Sam rainsy shouldn't accept to return to Cambodia court because Cambodia is a lawless state of hanoi.The court is crooked it can twist from right to wrong without conscious of human being.
The Svay Rieng court should summon thief nguyen,hun,chea and heng plus vsa kimhong go to explain the Cambodian people.

Criminal People's Party or CPP, if you are so strong, now release the two weak, innocent farmers and deal with the strong man Sam Rainsy. Flailing to do that, you are a bunch of idiots good only with the weak.

If he just did not pull out the posts, Hun Sen regime would not find any excuse to put Sam Rainsey on trial. What is the point? Sam Rainsey walked into Hun Sen and Viet trap. Mr. Sam Rainsey should learn how to deal with this evil regime carefully in order to survive his political career that many Cambodian people put hope and trust on him.

Dear Sam Rainsy,

You should not got to the Svay Rieng court. This court is a court that set up by Hanoi, the court that serves Ah Yuons, court that waiting to punish his own Khmers who try to fight for Khmer country and people.

If you go there, they will trap you and lock you in jail forever. This Hanoi court NEVER let you win. How can they serve Yuons if you do.

We know you are a brave man, you are a here for our poor people. But walk into this court is a stupid decision, it is like walk into a crocodile's mouth. They will ever let you go.

So please don't you ever go to that stupid Hanoi court in Svay Rieng.

10:03 AM,
How come your governmnet collaborates with the fugitive Thaksin of Thailand?

The opposition leader Sam Rainsy is accused of crime for condemning the Vietnamese for violating his country, and Thaksin is accused of stealing the nation from his corruption.

Are you Vietnamese 10:03AM? You must be.

Mr. Sam Rainsy would need to return to Cambodia to face the Cow Dungs Court.

"He(AH SVA KIM HONG) said the border posts were placed on the basis of treaties signed in 1985 and 2005, and that although land had been ceded to Vietnam in some areas, it was compensated by gains elsewhere.".
http://www.phnompenhpost.com/index.php/2009111729588/National-news/assembly-strips-sam-rainsy-of-parliamentary-immunity.html


= I want to know who give AH SVA KIMHONG the authority to trade and compensate Cambodian land for the Vietcong land? Tell me who? Who the fuck is it? What happens to AH HUN SEN's concept of not wanting any Vietcong land beside protecting Cambodian land and Cambodian sovereignty?

If AH SVA KIMHONG claimed that Cambodia has gained some land from the Vietcong and Cambodian people have the right to know what those land are and where the land is located and do the land have any military importance and is it fertile land and do the land have access to sea or to the body of water such rivers and lakes?

The fucken job of AH SVA KIMHONG is to enforce what is on Cambodian international map! It is not his fucken job to allow the Vietcong government to pick and chose what land they want to trade or compensate to take Cambodian fertile land and to cut off Cambodian access to the sea or the body of water!


The act of AH SVA KIMHONG alone has broken Cambodian law and he has committed treason against the nation of Cambodia for using Cambodian land to trade and to compensate with the Vietcong government! Now the burden is on AH SVA KIMHONG to point out what Cambodian land was used to make the trade or to compensate with the Vietcong government in the court of law!!!

Sam Rainsy has not done anything wrong here and he only pointing out the fact!

All the problems we have up to today is because of sihanouk.
government or authority just implementing the royal's order.

You're absolutely right 1:05PM.It was Sihanouk who helped the yuon to become one ,and now yuon is in full control of his country

A Khmer lawyer in Phnom Penh said...

Sam Rainsy's request shows that he is really working and fighting for the innocent Khmer people. He doesn't ask anything for himself. The Hun Sen's government and court should comply if they are sincere. Then Sam Rainsy will be prosecuted in Cambodia and go to jail in and for his country.

Sam Rainsy is a coward man and always escape while his supporters are suffered. Is this what political people do?

It is funny that some stupid Cambodian people want Sam Rainsy to show up in Hun Sen court.

Sam Rainsy was charged with what law? I want to know! For Sam Rainsy to show up in court Hun Sen court, the court needs to tell Sam Rainsy what section of the law that he is charge with so that he can defend himself!

That is GREAT LEADERSHIP BY THE Svay Rieng court to put the OWNERs the land where the boarder posts "deam illegal and have encroached on Cambodia" have not only tresspass their private property. But they are criminal for owning their own land.

The lession learnt here is that CPP government are not protector of Cambodian Territory or people...Their view is any Khmer who own land are criminals....

I wonder how many more Khmer suffer these predicument.??

And i wonder what can the Cambodian people do you protect their private property or Land...If the rest of Khmer are igorance these issues will hit them one day soon and they will all be homeless and landess minority.

It seem it doesnt matter to them for the CPP government of Hun Sen land title mean nothing. As long as it expose Vietnam illegals activities the good people and law obiding citizen of cambodia are all criminals, conversely the laws breakers and corrupted leaders are not.

Cambodian citizen next to think hard on what they can do to eliminate Hun Sen as leader if he sit there we will see them problem day in day out.
