About 60 animal slaughterhouse operators from Kampong Chhnang’s Rolea Ba’eir district yesterday protested what they claim is extortion by the provincial director of the veterinary department, the businessmen said yesterday.

The veterinary department director had allegedly forced the slaughterhouse owners to “donate” 450,000 riel (about US$112) each to receive their business licences ahead of Liberation Day celebrations this weekend.

“We will only donate this money if they issue a receipt for us,” Chhuo Yo, a pork seller said, adding there had been no orders from the provincial governor to cough up the cash. “If there is no receipt, what does that mean for our 450,000 riel?


Veterinary department director Moeung Sarath told the Post he was simply following orders. “I am a lower level officer, if you want to know, please ask the provincial director of the agriculture department,” Moeung Sarath said.

Ngan Nany, provincial director of the agriculture department in Kampong Chhnang, said he was following the instructions of the provincial governor, who has asked for all people to donate money to charity for liberation day.

“Related to the businessmen who have to pay 450,00 riel each, please ask my deputy because I am busy in a meeting,” Ngan Nany said.

Touch Marin, Kampong Chhnang governor, confirmed he had asked businessmen in his province to donate money for Liberation Day celebrations.

“But I did not set up how much money, all people can provide money according to what they want,” Touch Marin said.

7th January, the day Youn invaded Cambodia.

7th January, the day Youn tricked Khmer to believed that they came to liberated Cambodia.

7th January, the day Youn started their annexation process into Cambodia.

7th January, is the day Youn brain washed many Khmer to believed that they are the Angles to saved our lives.

7th January of 2012, Khmer must realized the above mentioned are true and must protect our nation NOW.

ក្នុងមួយពិភពលោកនេះ អ្នកណាៗក៏ដឹងគ្រប់គ្នាទាំងអស់ថា
អាយ៉ងខ្វាក់ក្បត់ជាតិ ហ៊ុន សែន នេះ ជាមេក្បត់ជាតិ, ជាមេ
លក់ជាតិ, ជាមេឃាតករឈាមត្រជាក់, ជាមេខ្មែរក្រហម,
ជាមេទុច្ចរិត, ជាមេពុករលួយ, ជាមេយូកូងបាតផ្សារ,
ជាមេក្រុមមនុស្សពាល នៅកម្ពុជាដែរ...!
ហើយក៏ជាមេគ្រោះថ្នាក់ធំជាងគេនៅក្នុងប្រទេសខ្មែរសព្វ
ថ្ងៃនេះបើខ្មែរយើងមិននាំគ្នាកំចាត់វានិងបក្សពួកវាចោលទេ ប្រទេសខ្មែរគ្មានថ្ងៃបានសុខសាន្ត និងអភិវឌ្ឍន៍ប្រទេសជាតិ
ឱ្យចម្រើនលូតលាស់បានឡើយ។
អាខ្វាក់អន្តរធាន..! អាងាប់អន្តរធាន..!អាមេយូកូងបាតផ្សារ..!

Hun Sen is a traitor, a devil who destroys Cambodia. Yuons are everywhere inside Cambodia.

He will be punished by the spirit of Khmer heroes who sacrificed their life for our Country's survival.
