While he was allowed to meet a group of about 1,000 students and government officials at the National Institute of Education yesterday, RCAF General Chea Dara voiced out a violent political attack against opposition leader Sam Rainsy.
The general, who is in charge of the Preah Vihear region and who is also a close ally of Hun Xen, publicly accused opposition leader Sam Rainsy of betraying Cambodia and of joining with the Thai government with the intent of fomenting instability [in Cambodia]. These claims have always been categorically denied on many occasions by the opposition leader.
While attacking Sam Rainsy and Thai PM Abhisit Vejjajiva, this general also took the opportunity to boast about Hun Xen.
Nevertheless, Yim Sovann, the SRP spokesman, said that Sam Rainsy’s faithfulness to the nation is unquestionable. He added also that, according to the Cambodian law, soldiers must remain politically neutral.
Yim Sovann said that the 1997 law on soldiers stipulates that each soldier must not express their opinions or beliefs that are philosophically or politically oriented. He added: “Don’t serve any political party, otherwise, democracy in Cambodia will be destroyed.”

By breaking the law, all opposition members and all NGO should write to the king to sack this general. To let this general to get away with this law breaking, it will drag Cambodia into more anarchy.

Who is Chea Dara? Where is he come from? what military school did he go to? does anybody know this man?
CPP ARE PATHETIC! HUN SEN OWNED THE WHOLE CAMBODIAN NATION INCLUDING THE COURT AND MILITARY.
as long as cambodia controls by pourk thmil ,cambodia never ever get better than her neighbour.
We request the 1997 law post it here, so we know, is the general really breaking the law or not, if so we sue him to military court.
Otherwise, Yim Sovann just a mouthpiece for Sam Rainsy, that is all!
Chea Dara is a 4 stars General, but he does not know cambodian law.
How come ????????
Is that 4 stars General for Cambodian Army ?
Gumar Vann, SRP in Philadelphia, USA
Fuck you!
Ah Chea Dara can't get Thai invader out from Wat Kiri Svarak by force, he turns his political manouver to Mr. Sam Raisy! sic...
12:36PM, Gumar Vann!
Please stop pretending to be SRP from Philadelphia. Stop lying! Thanks!!!
REgardless if there is a law in 1997 or not, doesn't matter. It is a common sense for a democracy parties parliamant which demand all public servants to stay awys from allying themselves with political party. They are free to join as long as they need to resign from their public position first. If they mistakenly to express their close ally with any political party, they need to be fired so that all other public servants can learn from this lesson. If this general continue to work without having any pressure to resign or to be fired, Cambodia continue to be an arnachy Nation for ever.

"..... We do not allow... to lose 1 millimeter(mm) of our Territory..."this the statment always mede by our leaders/generals....I think this is the lie... 1 mm is so litle to measure .. technically if we use the most updated GPS aparatus... in the maps we may lose some.. and when we apply this to the real terrain /sites we always are not precise in measurement... 'that means we do not lose our territory in 1 mm BUT we lost Kilomiters or Sq. Kilometers....
Excellency Bandit Phd Advisor General(7 Diamond stars) Oknha Achar Knoy(=achar wat)
If Chear Dara and Hun Sen are so strong and boasful... how come the Thai soliders are there occupying Cambodian territories. Like Hun Sen, Chea Dara is barking but never bites!
Lot of non-sense....and stupidity!
Some Cambodian military and police are like a shit, they do not know any law, Cambodian law and international law or military law. it is a shame to the whole nation and military,look at their uniform they wear what ever uniform they have, from US old camouflage uniform to new US digital uniform, and from Vietnamese uniform china uniform Thai uniform and what ever they have they will wear it, especially from 5 star down to simple soldiers. they do not have any concept of military know how.
look at every nation military, they wear only their national uniform. oh Cambodian prime minister and generals do not know about this. they deserve no dignity and moral and virtue.
they keep changing 100 uniform everyday as they want. they don't know the shame. let not speak about other things but uniform
they never wear Cambodian military uniform because they don't understand about this. from 5 stars Some of them know only corruptions. what a shame and vulgar nation
Chea Dara , you are in the Army you suppose to be neutral , what the hell happened to your brain ? You job is to protect the Country and the people ... not the political Party . Alot of bigshots in Cambodia are soooooo stupid . Of course, you can vote for any Party you like but your job is not involved in any political Party .
Chea Tara is trained by the French government.

This General is so stupid , how did he get those Stars ? He doesn't even undertand the rule of the Army . Any Country in the world, the Army doen't get involved with the Politics.
The richest stars in the world is Cambodia under Samdech Akvak Mohasena badei Hun Sen. But these stars cannot light Cambodia. They are just simply civilian killers, like Keo soka, and Rith. They are just brave to kill unarmed civilian.
And who is really join Siame to invade Cambodia? it is Mr. Hun who join Vietname to invade Cambodia in 1979. Why I said this, because Sundaravet, the former Thai prime minister alliance with Thaksin who sent troops to invade Cambodia. ant Thaksin is making business with Hun Sen, and then the advisor to Hun Sen. So Mr. Hun who really join with Thia to invade Cambodia.

Dear 12.36PM,
Your brain is death. Can't you be a bit creative to write anything new? Why keep copying and past and post all the time?
Dear General Chea Dara,
Please be careful with what you say. Preah Vihear temple angels are very fair and just and magical. You might be like your friend, Hok Laudy.
All these officials need to take real Khmer history class about our Khmer Empire lost territories. Look at Koh Tral ah Yuons easily took it and the rest of those islands will be next.
If this guy represent Khmer army why the hell he got involve with politic?
What about the next election or the future election if SRP wins what will he does?
He got to be neutral! Don't ruin his own career.
The angels or the magical around or Lokta Dy will kill this general because this general attack his own people..
Be careful stupid general!!
Maybe he wants or looking forward for another star from HUN SEN????
this general name Chea Tara is and was political indoctrinated by Yuon Hanoi.
