Philadelphia Monday, 27 September 2010
“Today I want to make clear to all of you that the main mission of either the embassy or the consulates is to serve all people regardless of their political tendencies and beliefs. We will serve you unconditionally (sic!).”Cambodia opened a consulate office in Philadelphia, Penn., on Saturday, the third of its kind, aimed at serving Cambodian nationals and attracting tourism and investment.
Located on the ground floor of a building in the north of the city, the five-by-fifteen-meter office will certify documents and work with Cambodians facing issues like deportation, officials said.
“The opening of the general consulate is to help functions for our people who live in the US, to use it as a bridge for people in Philadelphia to our motherland,” Ouch Borith, secretary of state for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs told a crowd of about 100 Saturday.
Cambodia already has consulates in Seattle, Wash., and Lowell, Mass., in addition to its embassy in Washington.
Officials also moved to put aside concerns that these offices were extensions of the ruling Cambodian People's Party.
“Today I want to make clear to all of you that the main mission of either the embassy or the consulates is to serve all people regardless of their political tendencies and beliefs,” he said. “We will serve you unconditionally.”
“I am committed to serve the interests of the Cambodian people,” said Sok Savoeun, the newly appointed consular. “I will try my best to help as much as I can, regardless of your political parties. So long as you are Cambodians, I will do my best to serve you.”

Congratulation Uncle Voeun. Hope you live up to your commitment.
Mr., either you one of them or not one of them. You are eventually corrupt like majority of the CPP clants. Action speak louder than words. Thus, Mr. we will waite to see whether you have enough respect for your words.
If they want to help Khmer people why don't they help Khmer in Cambodia ? Thousands of them need help there . Khmer in the US dont need help. Now they got jobs , homes ,cars ,money and they can speak English for themselves .
By the way, isn't the Long Beach clants suppose to have one council as well? Or the price that have to pay to the Embassader is not right yet? Mr. Voeun - would you enlight the long beach people, especially to those business council in Long Beach and the sister city clants - of to how you have to pay to get the position? Long Beach people just don't know how to agreed how much they have to pay for the position...by the way Hun Sen connection is getting more expensive as the day go by. Just think of it like an investment ...catch it the rights time...as long as you are able to corrupt enough before Hun Sen govt. valuse get busted... That is my two cents advice to all of you that want to hold power from CPP..
It is another lie of the CPP dominated embassy again. This guy looks like a rapist lusting for extremely young girls for sure. Look at his bald spot carefully. It is typical bald spot of a man who constantly thinking of sex with underaged children. Watch out for this man. I bet his wife is at least 30 years younger than him for sure. It is the CPP culture to discriminate against the Cambodians who love the nation and belonging to the Sam Rainsy Party. This much I know as proven by the ongoing evidence in Cambodia. Even ah Soy Sopheap the idiot continue to praise ah CPP and sucking on ah YUON dicks daily.
He is Hun Sen and his counterpart Vietnamese secret agent !!! they sent him there to spy on Khmer who
love their nation. Don't believe a word he preaches.
The consular (Huot Daravuth?) in Seattle is a rogue. Many Khmer people in Seattle don't like him. His name is a Khmer name, but his character is not. I feel sad to have a person like this guy to be Cambodia's representative.
I just don't like those mother fucker CPP Gov't open these consulate in the U.S. Khmer in the U.S. they never welcome those regime that slave for ah Youn and working for the foes Youn to open in her. Go away mother fucker CPP.
This guy used to be in the CFF Top member, and 004 Hok Langdy's installed team in PA. Now he promoted to newly Consular in PA.
Watch out for $100 per seal $200 per signature upon your request.

He is CPP guy and collect money for CPP.
The political and money motivention CPP decided to opened new consulate in Philladephia Khmer community.

ពួកអាអ្នកប្រឆាំងមិនដែលបានជួយខ្មែរទេមានទិទ្ទានគេប៉ុណ្ណោះឯងមិនខុសពីពួកសៀមអាវលឿងនោះទេ។
Lets see if this guy is as crooked as he looks... Cambodian organization in phila are nothing but a bunch of arrogant, self-important, power hungry fools. They don't serve the khmer community too well. They look down on their fellow khmers. What a shame. hey auv ah boye (sok sovoeun) can you go back to srok khmer now?
I beg anyone of you --
