Phnom Penh Friday, 09 April 2010
“They sent the request to us in conformity with procedure. We will not take this request to throw away.”Fourteen opposition lawmakers submitted a request to the Constitutional Council on Thursday to postpone demarcation of the border with Vietnam in Svay Rieng province.
Villagers in the province’s Chantrea district say they have lost farmland to Vietnamese encroachment, and the Sam Rainsy Party attempted to stall border demarcation in the area in the National Assembly in March.
Cambodia shares 1,270 kilometers with Vietnam and is in the midst of negotiations to plant 128 of 305 border posts. Border issues are politically contentious in Cambodia, where disputed territory remains with neighbors Thailand and Vietnam.
Opposition lawmakers had proposed in March sending a letter on behalf of the National Assembly to Hun Sen, asking that demarcation at sites 184-187 be halted.
National Assembly President Heng Samrin declined, saying that conversations between the Sam Rainsy Party and the government typically have no results.
In its new request to the Constitutional Council, the opposition party requests again a stop to border demarcation at the four sites, saying they constitute a violation of Cambodia’s constitutional right to sovereignty.
The party claims the original borders from maps by the Geographic Service of Indochina in 1933 and 1953 have been encroached on.
Penn Thol, a member of the Constitutional Council and its spokesman, said the council had received the request.
“The whole council has the right to examine and decide on this request,” he said. “They sent the request to us in conformity with procedure. We will not take this request to throw away.”
Opposition leader Sam Rainsy is currently in self-imposed exile, after he was found guilty of destruction of property and incitement for knocking down border posts in Chantrea district. He is also facing a second suit by the government, for posting a border map on his party Web suit the government claims is false.

RISE UP OR STAND UP FOR YOUR SELF CAMBODIAN. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT FROM YOUR DICTATORSHIP LIKE HUN SEN. WHY DON'T YOU USE YOUR PEOPLE POWER TO REMOVE THE HUN SEN REGIME OUT OF POWER. TRY TO GET A FEW MILLIONS KHMER TO RISE UP AND GO TO HIS HOUSE DEMANDING HIM TO STEP DOWN. DON'T YOU SEE WHAT THE PEOPLE OF THAILAND DID RIGHT NOW. OPEN YOUR EYES. IF YOU WANT A GOOD FUTURE AND A GOOD LEADERSHIP IN CAMBODIA YOU MUST CALL MILLIONS OF CAMBODIAN TO STAND UP RIGHT NOW. WAKE UP KHMERS INSIDE.

i don't think the unsettling problem is the demarcation of the borders between cambodia's neighbors, i think it's has more to do with contentious border issue as cambodia lost lots of lands and territories to all three neighboring countries. however, i still think it is better for cambodia to demarcate our borderlines so in the future, our neighboring countries cannot steal from us again. now as far as the lost lands and territories, for now, all cambodia can do is to commemorate the losses so all khmer people will always remember this forever. this is very important to commemorate the loss forever so khmer can tell the world and learn and remember the loss.

These fucken border posts were made and installed, and pay for by the Vietcong government at the expense of Cambodia!
This is unacceptable! These fucken border posts must be dismantled, destroyed, and deported back to Vietnam! Fuck the Vietcong ambition!
Now China is behind you band of monkeys, you should not afraid of Yuons anymore, opposition members are helping you from shit, be men for once, bandits!
i rather have the borders demarcate than leave them open to future viet/youn stealing, etc... same with all other khmer borders all around the country. now, if it's a contentious borders, then leave that area for further negotiating, otherwise, the demarcation should go on in areas that are clearly recognized. be smart about it!
all cambodia needs is a competent border committee who knows what they are doing, really! so, why not fire the incompetent authority and replaced them with a competent ones, you know! when it comes to national borders, cambodia cannot afford to lose our lands and territories, really!
