PM asked to explain Vietnam border issue

Sam Rainsy Party lawmaker Son Chhay sent a letter to the National Assembly yesterday asking that Prime Minister Hun Sen appear in Parliament to explain the recent move to cede two villages to Vietnam.

The letter also asked Hun Sen to explain the planting of border post 314 between Cambodia and Vietnam in Kampot province, a move he claims has cut Cambodians from their land.

“This is a national issue, the prime minister must come to explain officially,” Chhay said.

Cambodian officials last week said the country would have to give two villages to Vietnam if it wanted to keep another two in Kampong Cham province that were deemed territory of the King­dom’s eastern neighbour by the former French Indochina colonial administration.

sVa Kimhong, senior minister in charge of the Cambodian Border Affairs Committee, dismissed the objection.

“Opposition party opinion has never matched with the government.”

this is good system of reforms that the prime minister must explain khmer people and citizens when it comes to cambodia's lands, territories, etc. cambodia lands, territories, etc belongs to the entire nation, not private issue, really! this i can agree with the opposition for being proactive when it comes to this issue instead of politicize the issue further without resolution to the problem. sometimes the opposition people are rights, but mostly of time, they are wrong to politicize any issue based on their bias, discriminatory view, prejudice, outdated thinking, etc. it should be about doing the right thing, not about political exploitation of different issue all of the time, really. i think the more education and training people get, the better they will think for themselves on important national issue, etc, really.

Var Kim Hong is right on that.
Opposition party's opinion has never matched with CPP because the opposition's opinion and vision are above the CPP.

Sure they both can never matched, because one (SRP) is highly educated from west, and one (Hanoi's slave)is lowest educated from jungle and crack smoker.

Is it funny that Hunsen made up charge against Sam Rainsy for moving two border posts, and now Hunsen moves two villages to Vietname. Who is really a criminal?
