Cambodian parliamentarian and former cabinet minister Mu Sochua is an unrelenting advocate for women’s rights and democracy. As minister of women’s affairs, Sochua negotiated a landmark agreement with Thailand to protect the rights of Cambodian women trafficked as sex workers. As a legislator, she drafted and secured passage of Cambodia’s domestic violence law. Sochua launched a campaign to bring nongovernmental organizations, law enforcement officials and women in rural areas into a national dialogue to protect women and girls victimized by trafficking and boost prevention efforts nationwide. Drawing on her extensive experience working with women in Cambodia and throughout Asia, Sochua will discuss why politics matter to women and how women can and should embrace politics to build inclusive, democratic communities.

Look at disgraced Mu Sochua's face is thick, oily and really ugly. It is really hard to see any Khmer's woman who is ugly face like her.

Disgraced Mu Sochua’s problem all along, is that she is trying to be a politician. She's not, never has been and quite obviously, never will be. She should have just been herself, provide alternative policies and show Khmer people what a great alternative MP opposition she would be. Instead, her foray into being a politician has been a disaster. She comes across as pretending to be something she's not.

While the nation is facing Thailand's invasion, complex economic, social and environmental issues disgraced Mu Sochua tries to promote her political stunt, aimed to get media attention. If this wasn’t such a clear demonstration of her selfish pursuit of personal ambition it would be laughable. There is no doubt that Mu Sochua has no real regard for the best interest of the nation. She is driven solely by a desire to become a “Champion of Women or new Aung San Suu Kyi” by any means available to her, even if that has the potential to destabilize the country. Even worse when many Khmer women have suffered by Thailand's artillery from 4 to 7 February 2011, she was enjoying herself in overseas, but now she is shameless appealed to other Khmer women to strike against the government.

People of integrity admit their faults, make amends are judged fairly...Disgraced Mu Sochua is lacking of integrity and common sense and tries to change Cambodia into her own world.

Disgraced Mu Sochua is good in political stunt but not a substantial.

Would Ki Media, please take the picture of this woman of out of this news? What does she do to help you? How much helps do you aquire from her? What is her education? Why can she works in Phnom Penh as a high ranking officer in Cambodia? DO you receive any financial help from her?

Some of you are so rude and disrespectful to Ms. Mu Sochua. She is a very nice woman and have been a victim of CPP members and Hun Sen.

It sounds funny to me that you guys are just happy to live in Cambodia under the communist environment led by CPP members and Hun Sen who are full of corruptions. What kind of freedom do you have under this regime?

I think you guys are full of yourselves are very ignorant. There are many people of Cambodia suffering from the abusive CPP members and Hun Sen. CPP members and Hun Sen have misled Cambodia and Cambodian people, causing the serious corruptions and illegal evictions to the poor people without the reasonable compensation in the country. The international communities are watching the wrong doing that CPP members and Hun Sen have been doing.

She is trying very hard to do the right thing for Cambodia and Cambodian people as a whole, however she need to present her plans and political agenda upfront clearly for all to know and see. We must have total DEMOCRACY, RESPECTS FOR HUMAN RIGHTS AND EQUALITIES THROUGH-OUT THE COUNTRY. CAMBODIA NOW A DAY IS IN THE STATE OF EVERY MAN, WOMAN, CHILD FOR THEMSELVES, PEOPLE WITH POWER AND MONEY WILL ALWAYS HAVE THE UPPER HANDS. THE POORS AND THE POWERLESS HAS NO OR VERY LITTLE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEMSELVES. MANY YOUNG KHMER MEN AND WOMEN WENT OUT OF THE COUNTRY TO LOOK FOR OPPORTUNITIES AND MANY OF THOSE YOUNG PEOPLE FACED ABUSED ABROAD EVERY DAY. MANY ASEAN NATIONS HIRE YOUNG KHMERS ON A SLAVE WAGES AND ABUSE THEM. IF WE KHMER DON'T RUN OUR COUNTRY RIGHT, WE ALL GOING TO END UP HURT EITHER ON OUR OWN LAND OR ASEAN NATIONS SUCH AS THAILAND, SINGAPORE, INDONESIA, MALAYSIA, BRUNEI, VIETNAM, LAOS, BURMA, KOREA, JAPAN, ETC. ETC. A GOOD LEADER WILL SERVE THE INTEREST OF ALL LEVELS OF KHMER LIVES, NOT ONLY THE RICHS AND POWERFUL.
WE MUST RESPECT AND LOVE EACH OTHERS, OTHERWISE WE WILL CONTINUE TO END UP HURT FOREVER AND EVER.

Khmer in Sydney CBD (12:52 PM),

Here you go again, there are many communist Vietnamese residents pretending to be Khmer (Cambodian) residents, creating a group name "Khmer in Sydney (CBD) in Australia, and attacking the Cambodia/Khmer democratic movement in Cambodia, Sam Rainsy Part leaded by Ms. Mu Sochua. Sam Rainsy was exiled and now temporarily live in France to avoid illegal prison sentence for 2 years plus 10 years because of the unreliable accusation of Vietnamese CPP leaders in Phnom Penh. Vietnamese-Yuon CPP members have pushed Hun Sen, Heng Samrin and Chea Sim to sentence Mr. Sam Rainsy (SRP leader) who falsified the land of Cambodian farmers was taken by Vietnam at the border.

You, Khmer in Sydney CBD group of people, are destroying the democracy in Cambodia, worrying about your businesses being illegally operated in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, having illegal Vietnamese relatives taking advantages of Cambodia's natural resources and land real estates development. This is how you guys are making money and getting rich there by trading and have a lot of money to live in Sydney, Australia.

I don't know about you, Khmer in Sydney CBD, if you are not Vietnamese residents, you need to help poor and helpless Cambodia people who have been illegally evicted by CPP members and Hun Sen and who have no place to go. CPP members and Hun Sen have been so corrupted and you, Khmer in Sydney CBD, supported CPP Yuon members and Hun Sen who sold and gave the land and islands of Cambodia to Vietnam? Do you know Cambodian Koh Tral (Tral Island)? Vietnam illegally renamed that island to Pho Quoc (That sounds like Chinese tonal). Vietnam encroached deeper inside Cambodia territory and Vietnam put sign and demarcated the border between Cambodia and Vietnam by taking more land from Cambodia farmers at the border. What is wrong with you guys? You guys just think about money and getting rich for nothing. Those Cambodian victims have been shot to death by Vietnamese troops and soldiers at the border and took Cambodian farmer's land. That is why Mr. Sam Rainsy to be there for those Cambodian people farmers who have been victimized by the Vietnamese troops and corrupted Vietnamese leaders. CPP members and Hun Sen have done nothing to help those Cambodian farmers who lost the land to Vietnam? Do you guys Khmer in Sydney CBD think that it is fair?

So, what are you guys as Khmer Sydnes CBD doing over there illegally in Australia? Are you waiting until Khmer people are all killed by your Communist Vietnam Hanoi leaders and your CPP Yuon Official members in Phnom Penh? Do you still have illegal Vietnamese relatives remained in Phnom Penh, Cambodia?

Anyone, Khmer people inside Cambodia and abroad, please write the letter to Australian Embassy in Phnom Pehn to do investigation about those groups as Khmer in Sydney CBD? Let Australian government crack down and investigate those Khmer people living in Sydney who gives the money to CPP Yuon members in Phnom Penh to destroy the democracy in Cambodian! Report to the Local News in Sydney, Australia about them so that those Khmer in Sydney will lose the opportunity in Australia.

Khmer people, please just keep fighting against the Vietnamese mafia Yuon CPP members and Communist Vietnam Hanoi and take down Hun Sen from the power

So, the International Communities and UN will hear the cry of innocent Khmer People in Cambodia who have been the victims. Don't let the Vietnamese people who live abroad stop support their Vietnamese CPP members (gang mafia) and Hun Sen. Vietnamese people who live abroad pretends to be Cambodian people to spread the rumors and lies to the international communities and foreigners abroad. Those Vietnamese people are very bad!!!

Koh Tral Island must not be forgotten

By Ms. Rattana Keo

Why do Koh Tral Island, known in Vietnam as Phu Quoc, a sea and land area covering proximately over 10,000 km2 [Note: the actual land size of Koh Tral itself is 574 square kilometres (222 sq miles)] have been lost to Vietnam by whose treaty? Why don’t Cambodia government be transparent and explain to Cambodia army at front line and the whole nation about this? Why don't they include this into education system? Why?

Cambodian armies are fighting at front line for 4.6 km2 on the Thai border and what's about over 10,000km2 of Cambodia to Vietnam. Nobody dare to talk about it! Why? Cambodian armies you are decide the fate of your nation, Cambodian army as well as Cambodian people must rethink about this again and again. Is it fair?

Koh Tral Island, the sea and land area of over 10,000 square kilometres have been lost to Vietnam by the 1979 to 1985 treaties. The Cambodian army at front line as well as all Cambodian people must rethink again about these issues. Are Cambodian army fighting to protect the Cambodia Nation or protecting a very small group that own big lands, big properties or only protecting a small group but disguising as protecting the Khmer nation?

The Cambodian army at front lines suffer under rain, wind, bullets, bombs, lack of foods, lack of nutrition and their families have no health care assistance, no securities after they died but a very small group eat well, sleep well, sleep in first class hotel with air conditioning system with message from young girls, have first class medical care from oversea medical treatments, they are billionaires, millionaires who sell out the country to be rich and make the Cambodian people suffer everyday.

Who signed the treaty 1979-1985 that resulted in the loss over 10,000 km2 of Cambodia??? Why they are not being transparent and brave enough to inform all Cambodians and Cambodian army at front line about these issues? Why don't they include Koh Tral (Koh Tral size is bigger than the whole Phom Phen and bigger than Singapore [Note: Singapore's present land size is 704 km2 (271.8 sq mi)]) with heap of great natural resources, in the Cambodian education system?

Look at Hun Sen's families, relatives and friends- they are billionaires, millionaires. Where did they get the money from when we all just got out of war with empty hands [in 1979]? Hun Sen always say in his speeches that Cambodia had just risen up from the ashes of war, just got up from Year Zero with empty hands and how come they are billionaires, millionaires but 90% of innocent Cambodian people are so poor and struggling with their livelihood every day?

Smart Khmer girl Ms. Rattana Keo,

You guys are getting worse and worse. What are you talking about?

You both are Vietnamese people living abroad will be on the News in the world one of these days, showing how bad and hypocrite Vietnamese people are because they are crooks, cheating, playing dirty politics, scaring Cambodian people, stealing the land and islands from Cambodia, destroying forests to sell to make millions of dollars for profits, evicting Cambodian residents from their own lands and taking more lands from Cambodian farmers, and more...Now, they are rich and dirty thieves and crooks.

From both of your comments similar to other Vietnamese people, they always start to insult and discourage Khmer/Cambodian people.

This is how Yuon/Vietnamese people have said such things to Khmer people in order to gain their own ugly faces in the world. They do not know they wasted time and energy to do the damages to Cambodian/Khmer people as much as possible.

Khmer people, please just ignore their comments and don't give up hope and keep fighting against those hypocrite Vietnamese people who try to protect their ugly reputation and bad history in the world.

There are more and more to come from Vietnamese people who live abroad to trick and talk dirty. They try very hard to save their asses as much as they can, but they are not going to save faces in the world. Vietnamese people are very evil and hypocrite.
