Cambodia anti-drug chief faces corruption charge

2011-01-17
Associated Press

The head of Cambodia's anti-drug trafficking agency has been charged with drug-related corruption.

The chief of the anti-corruption unit said Monday that police Lt. Gen. Moek Dara, secretary-general of the National Authority for Combating Drugs, has been formally charged in Banteay Meanchey provincial court.

The charges Sunday came about a week after Moek Dara was first detained. On Friday, the Banteay Meanchey provincial police chief and his deputy were charged by the same court with corruption. Both were arrested on suspicion of taking bribes to release drug trafficking suspects.

Under Cambodia's anti-corruption law, passed last year, any official found guilty of taking bribes faces up to 15 years in prison.

Om Yinteang is in charge of ANTI-CORRUPTION.
Ke Kimyan is in charge of ANTI-DRUG.

Om Yinteang is a Hun Sen's man.
Ke Kimyan is Hun Sen opponent.

I hope that not just Gov. official who get punished but also the people who gave the money to corrupted officials.
Otherwise, it will not stop the people from bribing the Gov. officials. The punishement have to be harsh both ways. It is the only way to discourage people from doing it.

I agree with poster 12:25AM
People are not ignorance. They want to see each party has their diirection for their country.
So far Cambodia is full of anarchist led by Hun Sen under the instruction of vietnam to cape Cambodia poor and weak by having policy of hatres between Cambodian themselves, such as sold out the country for foreigners, slavery salary, corruption, insecurity, mafia style leadership etc...
Cambodian need a system to lead into prosperity for their own people by having good income, real job, public security, full democracy system, human right and fredom of free speeches.
The real development will benefit to their own people.
Example, If any development in Boeung Kak, residents of Boeung Kak must benefit first by having nice house, nice streets and nice living condition. But it is fully opposite for having them evicted and live in poverty. THAT IS NOT DEVELOPMENT. That is a sign of sold out of people lives which is a crime.

I bet you only know how to arouse anger and hatreat without even responsible for what your ignorance preach? show people the fine blue print to achieve somethings, it is not your irresposibility preach. Tell your boss I Mike, siad his master in criticism are more destructive to Khmer, He is not be able to lead his messy SRP company how could he run a gov't? now you clearly see it, didn't you?. Tell him to stope make a living by the nam of Khmer compatriot?. people already Know franch economy are worst than any country in Europ, your boss can't get better jobs over there that why he try to set up SRP company, by the way how much you already spend to SRP charity sofar?. nice.

if we consider the statistice or or national census, we have about 5,7 millions population in 1980. for every 20 years it doulbe the number, now 32 years it about 14 million it just right fiquer. yes there are some veitnamese lived in Cambodia but, if like you said 5 million it must 1 of them live next to every Cambodian house, please give sense of fairness. Being exagerate in politice or in convincing some one, smart people they don't do that, wasn't it right? people will find out some day it make you looked like you are a lier. do you have any concret profe or absolut profe to me does Sam rainsy he truly a Khmer compatriot? really? Now looke into the Past, any one heard about Sam rainsy durring darknese period from 1975 to 1992, Sam Rainsy he graduated in 1978, he knew everything happen in cambodia, why we never heard about him. Just say the truth okay, Sam is chinese, chinese Sam is Chines not khmer he try all posible tools to get power and robe more money from Khmer, all of you in here, you should see the only way Khmer compatriot does to his nation is those who build school and educate people, bring peace safty, build strong economy, strong miltary, try to get more invester, and give deriction to security food suply and build more hospital or health care services, now you see who is the traitor and who is the Khmer compatriat, don't you see? thank you for let me know that most believer in SRP are people who have no vission and never responsible anythings they do, and you are one of them. don't you?. sorry for any gentlemen who read this article
