Over fishing
VILLAGERS on Koh Kyong island in Preah Sihanouk province are preparing a complaint over more than 300 allegedly unlicensed fishermen who they say are illegally operating in local waters.
Loung Bunny, chief of the Association for Natural Protection in Ochroy commune, said yesterday that fishermen from Vietnam’s Phú Quoc island and provinces around Cambodia were threatening local livelihoods. “Vietnamese fishermen use their modern, mechanised boats to fish [without permission] in this commune” he said. “We are collecting thumbprints for the villagers to file a complaint to the local authorities and the Fisheries Administration in early August.” Fisherwoman from Koh Kyong island, 47-year-old Eang Hern, said yesterday her daily earnings had dropped from 50,000 riels (US$12) three months ago to 20,000 riels due to overfishing.
But Duong Sam Ath, chief of the provincial Fisheries Administration , yesterday denied any unlicensed Vietnamese fishermen were operating in the area.

Why complain?
Isn't Nambodia already a province of Vietnam?
why viet/youn don't fish in their own seas? they have a longer coast line in the east than cambodia, why they like to fish in cambodian waters? what's wrong with their east coast seas? maybe there's no fish there! maybe china should go fishing in viet/youn east coastline too, you know!
Know what? know hit, your dumb Khmer head
Even Hun Sen is Vietnam slave,
but the rest of Cambodians do
not want to be its slaves.
The Vietnamese fishermen knew
that Cambodia govt has done
nothing to them.
Hun Sen and high officials just
ignore all things that happened.

ជាតិយួនប្រើនេសាទុបករណ៍ទំនើប ហើយ
ជនជាតិខ្មែរប្រើប្រដាប់ចាប់ត្រីបុរាណ ដូច្នេះ
ខ្មែរនេសាទមច្ឆាជាតិមិនទាន់យួនទេ។
ខ្មែរទ្រាំរស់ ព្រោះខ្ញុំគេ ទោះបីយួនពានពារ
យ៉ាងណា ឲ្យតែបានឆ្អែតមួយពោះរស់មួយ
គែ ទំរាំដាច់ពូជខ្មែរ។
