ដូច្នេះលោកសមរង្ស៊ី បានបំផ្លាញទ្រព្យសម្បត្តិ
សាធារណះ ដោយចេតនា គឺលោកត្រូវតែទទួល
ពិន័យ នូវទង្វើដែលលោកបានប្រព្រឹត្ត ។
គឺត្រូវតែពាក់អាវខៀវផ្ទៃមេឃ រយះពេលពីរឆ្នាំ ។
មួយវិញទៀត លោកសមរង្ស៊ី ត្រូវពាក់អាវខៀវផ្ទៃមេឃ រយះពេលបន្ថែម១៦ឆ្នាំ
ទៀត ពីបទយកផែនទីក្លែងក្លាយមកផ្សព្វផ្សាយជាសាធារណះ ។ អចឹង បើទូទាត់មើលទៅ គឺតុលាការ កាត់ទោសលោកសមរង្ស៊ីយ៉ាង
យុត្តិធម៌ជាទីបំផុត !
