Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said Monday that the country has no plan to build a nuclear power plant for present time, citing nuclear disasters in Ukraine and Japan.
He said that it was a misunderstanding that a neighboring country (Thailand) reportedly said that he allowed the construction of a nuclear power plant in Koh Kong province.
"One asked to conduct a feasibility study for a nuclear power plant in Koh Kong province, but I did not allow it," the premier said at a graduation ceremony of students at Asia-Europe University. "It is not the right time for Cambodia to build it."
Cambodia's capacity has not reached the level of building the nuclear power plant, he said, adding that even Indonesia has not yet reached that level.
His clarification was made after The Bangkok Post of Thailand reported on Oct. 10 that Thai Army chief Prayuth Chan-ocha expressed concern over Hun Sen's plan to build a nuclear power plant in Cambodia's Koh Kong province adjacent to Thailand's Trat province.
Hun Sen said that neighboring countries have their rights to voice their concerns because if there is an explosion, it will not only affect Cambodia, but also damage others in the region.
The premier also cited the world's two worst nuclear incidents. One was the catastrophic nuclear accident that occurred in April, 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine and the other was Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in Japan in March last year.

No, means yes! Criminal, walks away. Innocent is quickly arrested.
His words are as poison as a venom.
If Cambodia want to achieve the height like all others industrial nation on Earth and Cambodia must pursue and secure energy supply from all sources! Cambodia must not depend on any one country for the energy security!

Fuck you! Maybe you can explain to me how the hell the North Korean can build Nuclear Weapon but they don't know how to build a car!
All of you mother fucker undermine Cambodian people intelligence! If the fucken topic of Nuclear Power is beyond your intelligence and just shut the fuck up! Nuclear Power will come to Cambodia one way or another to achieve the status of industrialized nation and massive technologies transfer will play vital role in helping Cambodian people to the capability in taming the peaceful use of Nuclear Power!
AH CHkae CHkoot.
If Cambodia can afford to build a nuclear power plant then tell AH Chkae Kwak to build it properly. Otherwise, the fail nuclear power plant will kill another 3 million Khmer.
Do you think Ah Kwak Hun Sen will use all the money to build a nuclear power plant when he will die soon? Ah CHkae
To 4:09PM Ah Pleur! Ah Lop!
This is has nothing to do with AH HUN SEN. This is about Cambodian energy security! You jackass don't know shit about technology transfer! Just shut the fuck up! ahahah
