Phnom Penh, Cambodia

First of all, let me just say that on behalf of the United States government, we are so thrilled to be here in Cambodia for the Senior Officials Meeting. I’ve had a chance yesterday to meet with the Prime Minister and now I have had a very good discussion with the Foreign Minister. I think as you all know Secretary Clinton has invited him to the United States. He will be there early next month and we have had an opportunity to review all the important things that the United States is doing in Southeast Asia, particularly in Cambodia.
I’d just like to underscore that in addition to all the important bilateral work that we are undertaking and our multilateral engagement in terms of the Lower Mekong Initiative and the like, we are also bringing Secretary Clinton in July the largest ever business group to Cambodia as part of our multi-faceted engagement to suggest our deep desire to have a strong and deeper ties between our business communities in the United States and ASEAN. We are thrilled at the support that we have received from the Cambodian government. Daisy Liu [of ConocoPhillips] and Steve Glick [of Chevron] have made very generous contributions in terms of hard drives and also flash drives to enable the ASEAN Secretariat to be fully prepared and capable to deal with the enormous number of people that will be coming to Cambodia to celebrate not only the ASEAN Regional Forum, but [also] the East Asia Summit. This is a critical year – it’s the tenth anniversary since the statement of conduct with regard to the South China Sea. We’re at a critical period. We’re counting on the leadership of Cambodia to ensure the future of peace and prosperity.
I have been joined here today with my wonderful colleague from ASEAN, Ambassador Carden in Jakarta, to make a very strong commitment on the part of the United States to an enduring commitment to the Asia-Pacific region and to ASEAN as a whole, and I want to personally thank Daisy and Steve for their commitment to this process and to thank you, Foreign Minister, for all that you have done to build stronger relations between the United States and Cambodia. So thank you all.

..... and allow the former communist Hun Sen kill the poor Khmer people further?
Former Lon Nol's officier (1960-1975)
Khmer people know better, than Mr. Campbell, whose enemy.
all khmer community in US must stand up infron of the White House and show the body of 14 years old girl was shoot to dead last weeks by Mr HUN SEN Army to the president OBAMA ...Even though they knew what was hapen but all khmer sould be express more to let all armerican people know what kind of relationship between us and cambodia is?
All Khmer Krom people also must voice up in front of the White House too... in order to show Obama about how ah Hun Sen/shit did to them....
TO AR-7:18 pm you are AR-YOUN HANOI ar-kon-torb...you trying to written and acting that you are cambodia in this place you can't fool khmer people in this place any more we knew who you are , You trying to make Cambodian peole became enemy with armerican not any more THE WORLD knew who is vietname is Murder
may god bless cambodia always.
No wonder... what are these high usa officials gonna do to help cambodia and it's poor people? Same old ....same old...nothing good news for these poor khmers. These USA staffs...have nothing to do with evil HUN SEN beside to allow HUN SEN to continue to his bad deeds on natives khmer. Let me tell you something about some of these super power. they would go a long with less headache if there is no benefits for them.
i am not viet lover, but why do we dull ass khmer keep calling youn ahkha torb.. our khmer are also khatorb. we're kha torb on our own land. we only see youn being khmer's master, youn run business in cambodia, khmer be youn's slave. To get rid of these illegal youn out of our land or make them legally resident we must find some other ways.... don't use old shit trick. Do not use lon nol's ways, killing is wrong to innocent people. We must find the ways to make these vietnamese businesses under cambodia govt. management. First, we must push all cambodia govt. officialls follow and respect the law.... nobody above the law, we must commit it all at once, together.....
Let me remind you all that Kurt M. Kampbell is a Democrat, and the modern Democrat in the US is completely different than the old good Democrat. New US Democrat is Socialist or Communist.
The US's laws do not allow to have a Communist Party so Democrat is Socialist/Communist.
And Communist embraces Communist. Campbell just does his job.
Please all Khmers in USA vote for MR Mitt Rommy (R) because only the Republican can merge HunSen regime and Republican is the death enermy of communist and dictators. Like the former president Reagain (R) said to Gadaffi as "Mad Dog in Middle East".
don't vote for any party who still want cambodia to stay isolated and undeveloped and primitive, etc, ok!
No any nation loves Khmer than Khmer people.
