Khmer people living along the Cambodian-Vietnamese borders in Svay Rieng province have said on Sunday that the Cambodian and Vietnamese authorities have tightened and restricted border crossings at Daung commune of Romeas Hek district, reports Deum Ampil.

Mr. Phat Chhin, a villager from Tuol Prey in Daung commune, told Deum Ampil that in the last one month, authorities of both countries had tightened border crossings with strict ID checks at many checkpoints along the borders. He said he supports the measures because they were taken by authorities from both countries to ensure the safety and security and also to avoid disputes and conflicts between the citizens of both countries.

Mr. Chy Suos, also from Tuol Prey village, said the border crossing restrictions didn't just happen now, but it happened a long time ago, especially by the Vietnamese authority.

Mr. Khen Sakun, Deputy Governor of Romeas Hek district, acknowledged that there are border crossing restrictions, but they were put in place to ensure the safety and security for the people, after a Cambodian man was beaten to death by a group of Vietnamese gangsters during the Chinese New Year in February.

On 15th February, a group of Vietnamese gangsters beaten one Cambodian youth to death and seriously injured two of his friends when they crossed the borders to celebrate Chinese New Year in Tan Long village, Binh Duong commune of Chau Thanh district in Tay Ninh (Preah Trapaing) province. The Vietnamese youths had been arrested and sent to court.

Oh please! The Vietcong authorities only restricted on the Cambodian side but for the Cambodian Vietcong slave authorities are business as usual!

Tay Ninh is not Preah Trapaing. Tay Ninh is Rong Damrei. Preah Trapeang is further south. Binh Duong is not a commune, it is also a province.

What a dumb Cambodian PM Hun Sen. He has nothing to worry about Thailand whatsoever but watch his dirty mouth before he start talking to anybody. I get tired of him talking in Khmer and make no sense. Please all Khmer in Cambodian need to stand up like Thailand and other country to kick a dictatorship like HUN SEN out of power now before him, his family and his gangster ruin your children and your future. Rise up all Khmer in Cambodia.
