Mong Reththy, a CPP senator who also happens to be Cambodia’s major investor in the agriculture sector, gave a surprising speech during a seminar on climate change at the National Assembly. In his speech, Mong Reththy said that he does not support investors who evict people from land concessions given out by the government.
Mong Reththy said: “A number of investors claimed that they have to evict people out to develop their land concessions. But, I do not agree with this strategy. These people live on these areas for many many generations, where will they go if they are evicted out?”
At the same time, Mong Reththy asked the government to set up a commission to clearly evaluate whether companies that receive land concessions invest in them or not; whether these companies violate the rights of women and children or not, and whether they provide proper work to the local population as stipulated by the state or not.
Following Mong Reththy’s speech, the facilitator of the venue decided to cancel the question and answer time regarding the economy and climate change in Southeast Asia.
It should be noted that the majority of large economic land concessions are provided to companies that close to the ruling CPP party. This situation creates problems that are criticized by opposition officials and by civil society organizations.

How about his company evicting the people who used to live in the former Royal University of Fine Art? Did he forget?..This guy has a short memory...
Mong Reththy is acting for Hun Sen election scam. Hun Sen never change his Vietnamese Citizenship to Cambodian Citizenship because CAMBODIA will be gone from the World Map very soon.
This is a propaganda trying to make this coming fraudulent election look better.
The puppet party knew already how many seats they will get, but let this person talk against the puppet government to show to the people and the world that there are some good guys in its rank and file.
If this "Mong" (cemetery) has clout in the puppet party, he should be able to convince Ah Khteuy Ah Kwack to abrogate some 99 years land concessions that the puppet party gave to its boss Ah Kantorb in the past, then I believe him.
Good Luck Mong !! If you cannot cancel some old land concession, then you are just a cemetery.
Election time , so they pretend that they care about the poor., Khmer people should be careful who or which party they are voting for.
Just bullshit coming out of this guy's mouth. Talk is cheap...action is priceless.
HYPOCRITE MONG RITHY.
HE LIES AND HE WANTS PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR HUN SEN.
DON'T FALL INTO THIS EVIL'S TRAP.
I think most of tycoon I used to meet, only Mr. Mong Rithy that is simple man. He travel alone withou bodyguards and sometimes I see he drive the car by himselve. I know this because I work for one company who rent his building as office and our office is on the top floor of his office. I think he have more sympathy for the people or morale than other Chinese origin tycoons. Good bless him! We need business man with high morale.
it is always good to have strong ally from a tycoon; however i wonder what took him so long to finally speak out against injustice! well, i'm glad people can be reformed like this, you know!
