HUN SEN TO EXPLAIN WHY HIS GOVERNMENT HAS YET TO CALL FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PARIS AGREEMENTS TO HELP DEFEND CAMBODIA
On 6 May 2011 a group of opposition members of parliament officially wrote to prime minister Hun Sen the following letter (translation from Khmer):
To: Prime Minister Hun Sen.
By kindness of: National Assembly President Heng Samrin.
Subject: Implementation of the 1991 Paris Agreements on Cambodia.
Considering:
- Article 96 of the Constitution (which compels the Government to respond to any question from any Member of Parliament within seven days).
- The 1991 Paris Peace Agreements on Cambodia.
- Opposition leader Sam Rainsy’s 11 February 2011 letter to Prime Minister Hun Sen (about legal and peaceful means to defend Cambodia against a foreign aggression).
We, the undersigned Members of Parliament, would like to ask you why the Government has not yet called on the international community, especially the signatories of the 1991 Paris Agreements on Cambodia, to effectively and immediately implement these Agreements at a time when Cambodia is facing an obvious aggression from Thailand.
We would like to remind you that the Paris Peace Agreements not only recognize the right of Cambodia to call for help from the international community when our country feels threatened -- let alone aggressed -- by any other country, but they also spell out the obligation of all the signatories to respond to such a call. Moreover, they specify the mechanisms whereby the international community has to effectively, actively and quickly respond to Cambodia’s call.
Article 5 of the “Agreement Concerning the Sovereignty, Independence, Territorial Integrity and Inviolability, Neutrality and National Unity of Cambodia” says:
Article 5 of the “Agreement Concerning the Sovereignty, Independence, Territorial Integrity and Inviolability, Neutrality and National Unity of Cambodia” says:
- In the event of a violation or threat of violation of the sovereignty, independence, territorial integrity and inviolability, neutrality or national unity of Cambodia (…) the parties to this agreement undertake to consult immediately with a view to adopting all appropriate steps to ensure respect for these commitments and resolving any such violations through peaceful means.
- Such steps may include, inter alia, reference of the matter to the Security Council of the United Nations or recourse to the means for the peaceful settlement of disputes referred to in Article 33 of the Charter of the United Nations.
- The parties to this Agreement may also call upon the assistance of the co-Chairmen of the Paris Conference on Cambodia [France and Indonesia].
We would like to also remind you that in 1991, eighteen friendly countries signed the Paris Agreements on Cambodia. Among them there were all the world powers (USA, China, Soviet Union/Russia, UK, France, etc.) and all Cambodia’s neighboring countries including Thailand.
In short, the Paris Agreements represent the most important and the most effective legal instrument for the defense of Cambodia’s territorial integrity and for justice to be rendered to the Cambodian people as H.E. Sam Rainsy has already explained to you.
Therefore we ask you to tell us the reasons why your government has yet to call on the signatories of the Paris Agreements to respect their commitments to help Cambodia in the critical situation our country is facing now.
Please kindly and appropriately answer our question.
Sincerely,
[Names and signatures of MPs from the Sam Rainsy Party: Kuoy Bunroeun, Tioulong Saumura, Nuth Rumduol, Men Sothavarin, Chea Poch, Ho Vann, Kong Bora, Khy Vandeth].

All, Khmer, would be so happy to have Paris Peace agreement respected. That is all we ask for that all signature to not violate the agreement, especially Thai and Vietnamese. If this happen, Southeast Asian will enjoy prosperity for all.
The problem is that Thailand didn't recognize that they committed the aggressions against Cambodia! That goes down to the demarcating map between the two countries. In this case, how you can avoid the Hague ICJ? According to Thailand they are no aggressors! Article 5 of the “Agreement Concerning the Sovereignty, Independence, Territorial Integrity and Inviolability, Neutrality... You should ask for all of the signatories to be convened if all of them, including Thailand, have recognized that SOVEREIGNTY, TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY OF CAMBODIA has been violated! Does Thailand recognize that, though they are facts for Cambodians?
HoonXen is a strong man-Hanoi'puppet!
If there is no hanoi'puppet, Cambodia would have progess beyond imagined. Instead, cambodia is actually moving backward. Don't forget, anyone comparing cambodia now with khmer rouge is a khmer rouge himself ( hoonxen ).
The thai and khmer border issue, is all political! AT the end, only khmer suffers and loses, not thailand or vietnam!
AH HUN XEN DID IT AGAIN TO THE PEOPLE

If someone asking Hun Sen or CPP to implement 1991 Paris Peace Agreement he or she is barking to the wrong tree.
If someone asking Hun Sen or CPP to implement 7 January 1979 he or she is barking at the right tree.
Why?
Because CPP are sons ( deeply related to ) of Indochina Communist Party formed by late Ho Chi Minh in 1930.
let get rid of Hun Sen...than continue with paris 1991 agreement. let ride of all the traitor.
Kuoy Bunroeun, Tioulong Saumura, Nuth Rumduol, Men Sothavarin, Chea Poch, Ho Vann, Kong Bora, Khy Vandeth.
How about other MP?
The 1991 Paris Agreements on Cambodia supersede and void all illegal border treaties with the Siem government and the Viet government!
