MEPs condemn human rights violations in Pakistan, Cambodia and United Arab Emirates

The European Parliament published three human rights resolutions today, condemning Taliban's harassment of girls in Pakistan and expressing their concerns about land evictions and politically motivated convictions in Cambodia and the working conditions of migrant workers in the United Arab Emirates.

MEPs condemned the Taliban’s attack on 14-year-old Pakistani activist, Malala Yousafzai, who has defended the fundamental right of women to education on her blog. They have also called the government of Pakistan to immediately stop violence and discrimination against all women and girls and to increase funding for public schools. In addition, they urged the Commission to cooperate with Pakistan in order to develop education programmes for women.

As far as violence against activists in Cambodia are concerned, MEPs said that they are worried about the politically motivated convictions against political critics, land activists and human rights defenders in Cambodia. Also, according to local human rights groups, more than 400.000 Cambodians have been evicted from their homes or have had their land grabbed since 2003, and as a result, MEPs have called the Cambodian government to stop all land evictions. They have also urged for a change in their electoral system.


Finally, the European Parliament condemned assault, repression and intimidation against human rights activists, as well as death penalty and torture that take place in the United Arab Emirates. It has also highlighted the need to improve the living and working conditions of thousands of migrant workers and called the government to revise its legal and regulatory system. The Emirates has approximately 4 million migrant workers and many have their pay withheld or their passports confiscated.

....Make Love Not War....

Samdach Decho Hun Sen likes a Penis and Mr. Sam Rainsy likes a vagina. Penis is always need a vagina and a vagina is always need a Penis. They both mean to be together "Vagina and Penis" that's nature way. So in real life:

Vagina needs Penis, and
Penis need Vagina,
Hun Sen needs Sam Rainsy and
Sam Rainsy needs Hun Sen.

"Make love not war"
"Hun Sen must make love to Sam Rainsy, and Rainsy must support Sen like wife supoort husband, not War between you two"

4:11 AM is a Dumb Yuon Dog Eater who lives in Cambodia illegally to support Vietnamese/Yuon Puppet Hun Sen to destroy Cambodia and make dumbo Hun Sen of CPP (secret provision and supervision of Vietnamese/Yuon masters - Dog Eating Masters in Hanoi)win the election by cheating !!!

So, stop your meaningless and shitty joke that show yourself evil Yuon/Vietnamese thief and dog eater in Southeast Asia.

Several countries in the world and Southeast Asia will be aware of Yuon/Vietnamese Dog Eaters and Thieves hiding in Cambodia (including Laos and Kampuchea Krom - Southern Vietnam).
