Without any fear, Brother No. 2 sternly attacked the KR Tribunal (KRT), saying that the KRT only brought in the body of the crocodile to try, but it left out the head and the tail of the croc, i.e. the KRT only arrested his group and brought them to try without paying any attention to the genesis of the KR regime itself.
Starting with his greetings to the monks, to the nationalists from all eras who lost their lives to defend and preserve Cambodian land up until now, Nuon Chea, the former president of the National Assembly of the Democratic Kampuchea (DK) regime, clearly stated that: “If my health allows me, I will try to provide clarifications to a just history, not a political history. I think that this tribunal is not fair to me ever since from the beginning because it only brings to trial some of the problems. [What] I am saying is that, for an entire crocodile, it [KRT] only talks about the [croc’s] body, but it left out the head and the tail which play an important role in the [croc’s] daily activities, or to say it differently: the root [cause] and the consequence … this court will not reflect about them.”
At the same time, 86-year-old Brother No. 2 rejected all the crime against humanity accusations leveled by the prosecutors [against him], saying that it is not true and, in turns, he blamed the responsibility to foreigners, in particular, he stressed that Vietnam [is to be blamed].
Nuon Chea said: “All the accusations are not true. My stance during the revolution was mainly to serve the nation and the people. I want to let you know that, life under oppression and social injustice pushed me to adopt the idea of abandoning my family in order to struggle to free the country from the yoke of colonialism, i.e. from the oppressive aggression of the foreign thieves who steal land and water…”
He also explained about the goal of his communist party by stating: “The political path of the Communist Party of Kampuchea was to free our nation from being slaves to the foreigners and to build a clean society that is independent, i.e. there would be no killing or genocide.”
It should be noted that, in past hearings, Khieu Samphan, the former president of the DK regime who has not much wealth accumulated during his tenure in power, except for a small old shack in Pailin, gave the same declaration as Nuon Chea and he said that he avails himself to cooperate with the KRT to show the truth on his DK regime in which more than 2 millions perished.

What Nuon Chea say about yuon swallow Cambodia is right look at yuon now million of youn both soldres and civil in Khmer uniforms.
Vietnam's bad intention toward Cambodia will be unmasked.
We need to take this land thief, Vietnam, to the international court; otherwise it will keep creating turmoil in Cambodia.
The killings during the Pol pot's era were committed by the Khmer rouge, the Khmer Vietminh, etc.
Notice that Khmer Vietminh were created by Vietnam.
How about the K5, which killed hundreds of thousands of Khmer people in the 80's? This K5 scheme was totally orchestrated by Vietnam.
We need to take Vietnam to the international court about this K5 issue regarding Vietnam’s catastrophic action in Cambodia.
Nuon Chea explained that in the opinion of the KR party, the Vietnamese communists wanted to dominate all of Southeast Asia, and how bad the US-bombings damaged Cambodia.
Just start with you first killer! Let catch others later!!!! Just care about your stupid sin!!!! Motherkiller!!!
Youn can swallow cambodia because you motherfuckers kill million of us and make us hate and distrust ourselves!!!! Face justise and ready to meet ah Pol Pot , motherfucker!
Communist Party of Kampuchea
The communist Party of Kampuchea or Khmer Rouge between 1975-1979 was a combination of Khmer Viet Minh and a Paris students group, originally by 3 figures as follow:
These 3 figures came from difference background and ideologies as fellow:
1. Tou Samouth.
2. Noun Chea.
3. Pol Pot.
1.Tou Samouth was a former founder after Son Ngoc Minh of Khmer People’s Revolutionary Party created by Former Indochinese Communist Party led by Ho Chi Minh ( or Vietnam Worker’s Party ) in 1951.
( Khmer People’s Revolutionary Party was the old name of CPP during the First Indochina War 1946-1954 known as Khmer Issarak or Khmer Viet Minh under the leadership of Viet Minh and the real leader of the Viet Minh in Cambodia was Nguyen Thac Son but the public only knew Son Gnoc Minh and Tou Samouth, Sieu Heng and many more … .
2. Noun Chea was a former Thai Communist Party member before he joined and became member of Khmer Peopl’s Revolutionary Party during the Fist Indochina War.
3. Pol Pot one of Paris students group , the other like Ieng Sary ,Son Son and more .
After 1954 Geneva conference some of former Khmer Viet Minh followed yuon Viet Minh to go to Hanoi and some stayed behind ( in Cambodia ).
1. Those Khmer Viet Minh who followed yuon Viet Minh to Hanoi were Son Ngoc Minh, Pen Sovann and more .
2. Those who did not follow yuon Viet Min to Hanoi and stayed in Cambodia such as Tou Samouth, So Phim,Rous Yim and more .
Those former Khmer Viet Minh fighters who stayed in Cambodia in 1954 under the efforts of Tou Samout, So Phim and more joined Pol Pot ( a Paris students group ) to form Communist party of Kampuchea in 1960 ( not in 1951 as many Cambodian and westerners understand even Englihs Wikipea written .
But the communist Party of Kampuchea in 1960 formed by Tou Samouth, Nuon Chea and Pol Pot used the party name as Khmer Worker’s Party as yuon ( Vietnam Worker’s Party ).
After Tou Samuth was arrested and killed in 1962, In 1966 the Khmer Worker’s Party was changed to Communist Party of Kampuchea under the leadership of Pol Pot combined with former Khmer Viet Minh fighters like So Phim , Rous Yim and many more.
So this is a short biography of Communist Party of Kampuchea which did not create by Ho Chi Minh as Ho Chi Min Created CPP ( Khmer People’s Revolutionary Party in 1951 ) but half of Khmer Rouge between 1975-1979 were former Khmer Viet Minh and a lot of these Khmer Viet Minh became villages, districts chiefs and Zones Secratries as So Phim in Eastern Zone and Rous Yim in Northern Zone.
Between 1975-1979 these 2 senior Khmer Viet Minh So Phim and Rous Yim were in law.
For So Phim beside Eastern zone secretary So Phim was brother number of in Angkar between 1975-1977.
Angkar between 1975-1979 were:
1. Pol Pot Secretary General of Communist Party of Kampuchea.
2. Nuon Chea deputy secretary of Communist Party of Kampuchea.
3. Ieng Sary.
4. So Phim.
5. Son Sen.
6. Ta Mok.
Note: Sihanouk and Khieu Samphan are nominal heads of states between 1975-1979.
Noun Chea and Sieu Heng are cousins but to many believe that they are nephew and uncle.
Ah Hun Sen's wife Bun Rany is Youn. Her viet name is NGUYEN THY TEOUN, HER birth name is HEANG
12:04 PM,
Please correct what you had mentioned above:
Sieu Heng and Nuon Chea ( birth name : Lao Beng Korn) are Uncle-in-Law and nephew. Sieu Heng's wife, Lao Eoung, is the baby sister of Nuon Chea's mother, Lao Penh.Lao Eoung is still alive and is living in Wat Kor, Battambang.
Noun Chea you hero now
From 12:04 PM,
Thank you for your more information regarding to Sieu Hegn and Nuon Chea but Sieu Heng passed away but his sibling sting living in Pailin.
10:22AM
What is your real name? Why don't you tell people who you are and what have you done that make Pang Sokheoun to defame you?
As I know Pang Sokhoeun has involved and interests himself in any personal conflicts with most people in facebook and in his real life he only cheated his wife and took a girlfriend from Prum Seiha. That is all.
It seems that you have chosen to attack a right person, but in a wrong website. I have seen here and in facebook those people who use many IDs with no pictures and information about themselves try to attack and defame him and Mr. Meng Ly who has crucial mental problem in New Zealand.
I understand that those people are pro-CPP but they have right to do whathever they like as the new genernations of this country and try to change the mindsets through dialogue with honesty and respect unless they want to be like extreme SRP today.
I just cannot stand to answer for him because I always visit his wall daily and I also encourage him to answer if he thinks it is neccesary but he has never dared to answer any question.
