| Hor 5 Hong (L) and Khieu Kanharith (R): The prophets of evil on the hellish Hun Xen team? |

The government has apparently done an about face on its stance over the closure of the United Nations human rights office in Phnom Penh.
An official has contradicted previous claims that the government had requested the unconditional closure of the office.
In a meeting with visiting UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on Wednesday, Prime Minister Hun Sen proposed that Christophe Peschoux, the long-time head of the office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, resign from his post.
“If Mr Peschoux is not removed, then the UN human rights office in Phnom Penh will be closed,” Foreign Minister Hor Namhong said after the meeting.
Information Minister Khieu Kanharith confirmed later that the office would be closed regardless, quoting Hun Sen as having requested the closure of the OHCHR office on the grounds that “other countries in the world don’t have human rights offices, and Cambodia doesn’t want this office either”.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Koy Kuong has backed away from Khieu Kanharith’s comments, insisting the government would ask the UN to close the office only as a last resort.
“He [Peschoux] is a spokesperson for the opposition party and does not cooperate with the government of Cambodia,” he said.
Koy Kuong said said Peschoux had failed to adhere to the agreement between the government and the UN that established the office.
“We don’t just want to close [it], we just want the UN to replace Christophe Peschoux,” he said. “If they do not replace him, they [the UN] should close down the office.”
He called the OHCHR “unnecessary” and said there were countless human rights groups capable of filling its role, but reiterated that the office’s closure would only come as a last-ditch measure if Peschoux was not removed.

Never mind about Hor Nam Hong and Khieu Kanharith, the first is too old and has memory lapse, and the second is seldom staying sober.

Wow, that is some kind of a stupid statement.
Wasn’t that mentality that had turned Pol Pot to who he was?
“mean tei anh kmean kru achar nar bror dout anh ban tei”
When your mafia government is a murderer, robber, thief and tug how can you ask the U.N representative to corporate with you. They are there to wath over you to make sure that you stop killing, robbing and intimedating and torturing your own people. If you are continuing what you have done, you will face justice in the real court of law. The choice is yours.
UN should nullify the 1991 Paris Peace Accord, if the Hun Sen regime does adhere to the signed agreement.

Can UN also do the same to Cambodia request the remove of Hun Sen from office???
the quicker the better for Cambodia and it people.
The U.S and the U.N are working hand to hand and it does take times. The U.S and the U.N never act to remove any head of state without having the proofs and evidences of criminals record of the head of state. For example, Iraq, Sadam Husen it took nearly 30 years before Sadam was arrested, removed and executed.
In case of Cambodia, the world community, the U.N and donors countries have been trying to help both the Cambodian government and Cambodian people. But now, it seems that the U.N and the donor countries realize that they are being betrayed and cheated in every way by the Cambodian Government. They, the Cambodian government, is the problem. Instead of helping their people, the camodian government commit all kind of atrocity agaist their people. The cambodian government become to be the murderers, robbers, thieves and tugs. For their records they will someday facing justice in the court of law, like their big brother, noun chea, khiev samphan ieng sary and duch.
Close UN! you are uselest!!!
