Ten tycoons have asked permission to resign their government posts following the introduction of new rules requiring senior officials to disclose their assets to anti-graft authorities, an official said on Tuesday.
Sieng Borath, deputy president of the Anticorruption Unit, said that the businessmen – which included senators, members of parliament and advisors to senior officials – tendered their resignations when asset declarations became mandatory at the start of this month.
He did not name names, and emphasised that those reportedly involved were not resigning in an attempt to cover up ill-gotten gains, but were instead afraid they might accidentally leave some of their many assets off the declaration form.
“An oknha [tycoon], he has his legitimate job. There is nothing involved with corruption, but he finds it difficult because of his many assets,” Sieng Borath said in a speech on asset declarations at the Ministry of Information on Tuesday.
“The resignation doesn’t mean that he is corrupt, but that he finds it difficult to include those assets, that he might forget.”
Under the Kingdom’s new Law on Anticorruption, as many as 100,000 senior government officials will be required to declare their assets to the ACU by the end of next month.
When contacted on Tuesday, two tycoons holding government posts said they would not resign in the face of the new regulations.
“What the state requires us to do, we must do that. If we resign, it means that we have a problem,” said Chea Chamroeun, an oknha and parliamentarian from the ruling Cambodian People’s Party.
Yin Sovanny, an adviser to Senate President Chea Sim, agreed resignations could be construed as a sign of guilt.
“For me, there is no problem. It is not necessary to resign because we have not done anything [illegal],” he said.
Opposition Sam Rainsy Party spokesman Yim Sovann said tycoons were free to resign, but that the timing raised the question of whether they were trying to conceal ill-gotten gains.
“In the country that has the rule of law, even if they have big business and have any [government] posts, if they have honest business they will not be scared of declaring assets,” he said.
“We do not accuse any okhna, but in [Cambodia] most oknhas have illegal business.”

Ahah.. I think they just afraid the anti-corruption law may impact their positions that they have to declair their properties... We can see this very clearly...
Srok Chkuot,Sdach Chkuot,PM chkuot,
sensitive information Hun sen can't
stop ki nowhe go to joint it by giving money to someone to buy ki out. He offer a lot until ki can't refuse and we can't blame ki because that the way they make money. when they take the picture out or they still leave there but stop insulting Hun sen .That agreement was made. It's some one said. It's true or not you can wait and see.
This couple is a real criminal. He has no reason to be respected nor to be recommended at all excepte for their arrest and put to jail.
They have stolen enough public lands and privated lands. They have destroyed enough State forests and national environment. They have destroyed enough National economy. They have employed too many criminals to protect their daily lives.
Each day, they spent about $4000 on bodyguard fees to protect their lives.
it's a good sign that the anti-corruption law is working, slowly but surely! god bless cambodia.
in tycoons like these, their corruption is mostly them not paying taxes to the state! unlike in america, in cambodia, rich people don't really pay taxes at all, they get to keep all the money they made from selling of real estates, business, investment, etc, etc... they all should start paying the state taxes from now on! same all over cambodia, people don't really pay taxes like people in america do. that part of why they got rich so quickly, not giving back to the country and the community and society that made them rich in the first place, i think! all of that ought to be changing i.e. reformed, etc!
Consficate all assets those bastards Stole from cambodia
They know they doing evil.. They going to take the Money and run to China, Tawain or HK....they not even a real Khmer. blend in with the government and take money then run. No Khmer is going to go after them.
There are lots of oknha Sii Yin Qouys in Cambodia now a day. Worse than during Lon Nol time when some 'tor hear' selling pigs/pork carried IDs of military captain or colonel ranks.
some time we all use our magical soul can help us to see what going on situation in cambodia also .basically we use traitors on those leader .now magical soul .it work .they are fearing of our soul to Dem of them
They want to resign from the goverment jobs so it will be easier for them to cover up their asset that they got from the corruption. It's very understandable why they want to resign.
Khmer Ga
Corruptions??? There isn't any corruption in Cambodia. Oh..the money that pay to the high ranking official... we don't call that corruptions we call that business.
You pay the money, we give you land concession or Beng Kok or even Angkor Wat ...that is how the Hun Dynasty's business work.

I rather have Lao Meng Khin as PM than AH KWACK HUN SEN! HE DOESN'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT BUSINESS AND THE ECONOMIC SITUATION IN CAMBODIA! LAO AS PM ANYONE???

Lao Meng Khin is an opportunist.
Does that answer your question??
Land concession is just another word for land for sale, of course just like the monk said Cambodia is for sale. Greedy son of a bitch.
Look at Beng Kok contracted for 99 years, KOs Pich, Kos Poss, Phnom Borko, Ankor Wat, Tole Sap and all of those so call lands concession. Every thing is for 99 years. Soon the palace and the parliament house will be on sale for 99 years too. They just don't care about the next generation. You young people have to fight for it other wise you will get nothing left.
Youn every where they don't care, they only want more money and more power. What a traitors.... slaves to youn. Wake up and do somethings Traitors before you destroy the Cambodia.
Hun Sen = Mr. 99 years = slave to youn = TRAITOR = Youn every where in srok Khmer
the truth hurts, you know!
maybe they try to get the king to play favoritism or something! the king will only go by the constitution, the law of the land!
so much money has been made. It is time to get out but don't forget to pay coffee and tea's bills if Okgnas want footprints remain noticed by big brothers.
