Boeung Kak lake villagers will protest “until they die” if authorities do not help them find a solution to their housing dispute, villager Heng Mom told the Post during a demonstration in Phnom Penh yesterday.

More than 100 villagers from Boeung Kak lake, Borei Keila and Street 347 gathered at the capital’s Freedom Park to march to Prime Minister Hun Sen’s house with a petition.

During the walk, about 100 police and district security guards banned them from walking along Norodom Boulevard, forcing them into Street 19.

Heng Mom said Boeung Kak villagers were urging Hun Sen to mark the boundaries of 12.44 of hectares he agreed in August to give them and to issue land titles to 94 more families.


“They’ve torn down our homes, they’ve filed a complaint about us to the court; I would like to condemn the court, because it is not independent,” she said, adding that they would keep protesting until they died.

Pich Lim Khhoun, a representative of villagers from Borei Keila who are in dispute with development firm Phan Imex, said the company should honour an agreement it made in 2004.

“We would like the government to order the company to construct two more buildings for us,” Pich Lim Khhoun said.

Pao Pannha, a villager representative from Street 347, said 14 families in his community faced losing their homes because City Hall wanted to widen the road.

“We ask the Prime Minister to order commune officers to stop using the word ‘develop’ to take villagers’ land,” he said.

Kong Chamroeun, a cabinet official, said he had received the petition.

“Villagers can call me [tomorrow] to get the result. I have written down my number for them already,” he said.

It is about time these cops wonder what the hell they are doing.
Should they protect a corrupted man or their nation?
Why are they so stupid?

When Ah Phucking ex-communist become a (F)ucking capitalist, this is what happen to the people, (F)ucking profits is in their mind all the time. Why Buddhism failed in Cambodia? It is not Budhha that has failed, but the Buddhist monks preaching in Pali languages that the people did not understands, the monks need to translate it into Khmer language so the people can understand.

Buddha taught about universal love, compasions, empathy, sharing, caring, no killing, no stealing, no lying, no cheating, no abusing, no mistreating others, love yourself and others, in the Pali languages, the monks must make this very clear in Khmer language. Peace and prosperity to all!

You are right I support the ideas. The CPP clang is in processess to poision Khmer people in Washington DC, attack Temple and build new Temple when they couldn't take over.

Khmer people it is time to use your brain to save your nation and your people. Don't be selfish!!!

Hope Khmer can be united and stop killing each each other under the game of your enemies.
