Cambodia has again weighed into the diplomatic clash that ignited after last month’s ASEAN summit, laying blame for a breakdown of talks squarely at the feet of the Philippines and Vietnam in three stinging rebukes of newspaper articles yesterday.

The foreign ministry has grown increasingly sensitive to the barrage of criticism launched its way after ASEAN failed to issue a joint communiqué during the summit in Phnom Penh for the first time in the 10-member bloc’s 45-year history due to disagreements over the South China Sea.

All three responses published on the website of state news service Agence Kampuchea Presse accuse the Philippines and Vietnam of “hijacking” the talks by demanding their bilateral disputes with China over the waters be specifically included in the communiqué.

Petitions for Mam Sonando release hit embassies

The Association of Democrats claims to have secured more than 45,000 thumbprints for petitions submitted to foreign embassies yesterday demanding the release of their arrested president, Mam Sonando.

Sonando, an outspoken government critic who disseminated his views on-air as director of the Beehive radio station, was arrested on July 15 in connection with a so-called secessionist plot months earlier.

The deputy general director of the Association of Democrats, Khoun Phannavy, said yesterday 46,000 thumbprints had been collected for petitions submitted to embassies including those for the US, France, Japan, Singapore, Germany, Thailand and Australia.

“The reason why we do this is that we found that the president did not do anything wrong. He was not involved in the accusation of being behind an autonomous area,” she said.

Cambodian villagers speak out against corruption

In Lum Phat district’s Seda commune, the message from villagers attending yesterday’s Cambodian Center for Human Rights’ land forum was clear: We’ve been duped.

The mixed Khmer and ethnic minority villagers said they were coerced into accepting the phenomenally low price of US$150 per hectare of land from the DM Group and other private plantation companies and were forced to thumb-print documents leaving them with effectively no legal recourse – and no land – plunging the semi-nomadic community into even greater poverty and uncertainty.

Kuch Moly, a Funcinpec lawmaker who sat on the three-person panel at the forum alongside Seda commune chief Thom Phain, rebuked villagers for filing complaints when they have already accepted compensation.

He and fellow lawmaker Ou Chanrith, from the opposition Human Rights Party who also sat on the panel, were handed a complaint thumbprinted by 29 families whose houses had been burned to the ground by the DM Group in June of last year.

On a Skype connection beamed into the Phnom Penh courtyard of the Human Rights Party from France, self-exiled opposition leader Sam Rainsy claimed yesterday that he will return to Cambodia and campaign in the 2013 national elections.

His remarks brought waves of applause from more than 400 people assembled under an open-air tent, though it’s hardly the first time he has made such a pledge.

Leaders and members of the Human Rights and Sam Rainsy parties had come to Phnom Penh to talk about the newly formed union of their two groups, the Democratic Movement for National Rescue.

Rainsy, president of the DMNR, said the US will help pave the way for his return to lead the new party.

Along with opposition lawmaker Mu Sochua and Human Rights Party head Khem Sokha, he is traveling to the US on August 7 to meet with officials and talk about upcoming elections.

ASEAN without accord

July 30, 2012
Preeti Nalwa
Institute for Defense Studies and Analyses (India)

The Kingdom of Cambodia, chair and host of the 10 member-Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), hosted the second ASEAN Summit in its Peace Palace building at Phnom Penh from July 9-13. The Summit convened its signature assemblage—the 45th ASEAN Foreign Minister’s Meeting (AMM)/Post Ministerial Conference (PMC). Apart from this annual feature, the Summit also saw the participation of ASEAN partners from 17 countries under the aegis of 19th ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF), 13th ASEAN Plus Three (APT) and the 2nd East Asia Summit (EAS). On July 12, Catherine Ashton, High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy/Vice-President of the European Commission, signed the Instrument of Accession of the European Union (EU) to the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation in Southeast Asia (TAC). The TAC is a non-aggression and cooperation pact between ASEAN members and their partners; it is also a prerequisite for membership of the EAS. After signing the Instrument of Accession, Ashton remarked that “This is an important step because it commits us to working together in tackling issues that we face in a peaceful way. It also confirms that we will work together to address some of the security and political concerns of the region."1

In saying so, Ashton echoed the quintessential process-oriented approach of the ASEAN towards dispute settlement, i.e. the ‘ASEAN way’ of managing regional discord through the modalities of norms and principles of non-interference, peaceful settlement of disputes, non-confrontational attitude to conflicts, emphasis on musyawarah (consensus) and muafakat (consultation). The TAC is the fountainhead of these modalities of building trust and confidence through dialogue. And without compromising on its fundamental stipulations, the ASEAN has accepted the countries on either side of the Pacific into its fold and widened its organizational base extensively. In this process, it has morphed into its present hydra-headed form accentuating ‘open regionalism’ and has also staged itself as a potential cradle for building a more comprehensive, cooperative, inclusive and multilateralist regional security architecture in East Asia. The ASEAN Defence Ministers Meeting Plus-8 (ADMM-Plus 8) is the latest addition to its network aimed at creating neutral, consultative and open engagement for the Asia-Pacific.

New US judge to probe controversial KRouge cases

Cambodia's UN-backed war crimes court on Monday said it had appointed a US judge to probe two new Khmer Rouge cases strongly opposed by the government, after two predecessors resigned in protest.

Cambodia has approved the UN decision to hire Mark Harmon, the court said in a statement, in stark contrast to the previous judge who held the role but was never recognised by Phnom Penh.

Harmon is a former US federal prosecutor and also served as a senior prosecutor at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague for 17 years.

He will be the third foreign judge in less than a year to attempt to investigate two politically sensitive new cases linked to the brutal 1975-1979 regime, when up to two million people died.

New case of Enterovirus 71 found [in the Philippines]

Tuesday, July 31, 2012
Sun Star (The Philippines)

THE Department of Health confirmed a new case of Enterovirus 71 (EV-71) in the country.

Although no other details were immediately known as of this posting Tuesday, a television report said the person found positive for EV-71 is from Benguet.

This is the second case since a one-year-old boy from Davao City was found positive for the same virus.

EV-71 causes diarrhea; rashes; and hand, foot and mouth disease; and is sometimes associated with severe central neurological disease. The virus, which was earlier tagged as a "mystery disease" in Cambodia, caused the deaths of 52 children there.

After Beehive Arrest, Concerns Spread Amid Civil Society

Mam Sonando was arrested in mid-July and accused of leading a secessionist movement in Kratie province, charges that are widely believed to be fabricated.

Rights workers say Mam Sonando’s detention has spread a message of fear and is hurting Cambodia’s fledgling democracy.

WASHINGTON DC - Human rights workers say the arrest of Beehive Radio owner Mam Sonando has caused concern throughout civil society of further arrests and prosecution in a large-scale crackdown.

Mam Sonando was arrested in mid-July and accused of leading a secessionist movement in Kratie province, charges that are widely believed to be fabricated.

Some observers say it may have been his participation in and broadcast of a series of forums by a US-based group seeking to topple the administration of Prime Minister Hun Sen that led to the arrest. Authorities have arrested a number of suspects linked to the Kratie incident, but they are still seeking others.

Rights workers say Mam Sonando’s detention has spread a message of fear and is hurting Cambodia’s fledgling democracy.

Ou Virak, head of the Cambodian Center for Human Rights, said rights workers and other advocates need to be able to do their work.

New US judge for Khmer Rouge cases

July 30, 2012
From: AAP

CAMBODIA'S war crimes court, backed by the United Nations, has appointed a US judge to investigate two new Khmer Rouge cases strongly opposed by the government, after two predecessors resigned in protest.

The Cambodian government has approved the UN decision to hire Mark Harmon, who was regarded in stark contrast to the previous judge who held the role but was never recognised by Phnom Penh, the court said in a statement on Monday,

Harmon is a former US federal prosecutor and also served in a senior capacity at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague for 17 years.

He will be the third foreign judge in less than a year to attempt to investigate two politically sensitive new cases linked to the brutal regime which ruled between 1975 and 1979, when up to two million people died.

What happened in Phnom Penh?

July 19, 2012
By Erlinda Basilio Undersecretary, Department of Foreign Affairs
The Philippine Star

I am sharing this article with the Filipino people to inform them of the real state of the discussions during the 45th ASEAN Ministerial Meeting in Phnom Penh on July 9, 2012. I was present during the discussions in the different sessions. I feel it is my duty to present to all Filipinos the efforts made by the Philippine Delegation to seek the unified support of ASEAN to the West Philippine Sea issue which affects not only its member countries but the region as a whole. Through this article, I hope to present the real picture during the Ministerial Meeting from the point of view of a Filipino, and in the process, correct the grave misimpressions generated by some who were not present during those meetings.

The non-issuance of the customary Joint Communique after the 45th ASEAN Ministerial Meeting (AMM) in Phnom Penh, Cambodia expectedly generated considerable reactions and commentaries because it was unprecedented in ASEAN’s 45 years of existence.

However, many of those reactions/commentaries were based on erroneous information. It is therefore essential to lay down the facts.

Fiction: There was no Joint Communiqué because ASEAN failed to agree on the Code of Conduct on the South China Sea.

Never before has our regional association been as strained as it is today – and much of the blame might be put on the Philippine side.

Fact: ASEAN had already agreed on the key elements of the proposed Code of Conduct on the South China Sea for discussion with China. The Philippines was successful in having its suggested main elements included to give the Code the substance it requires.

Insensitive response by Cambodian diplomat considered as insult to The Philippines

Communiqué only through full consensus

Finally, to try to blame Cambodia, as the ASEAN Chair, for what essentially was the inflexible and non-negotiable positions of the two countries of ASEAN is a dirty politics and therefore it should have no place in ASEAN.
I wish to respond to an article written by Erlinda Basilio, Undersecretary, Department of Foreign Affairs of the Philippines, published in your newspaper, on 19 July 2012, under the title: “What happened in Phnom Penh?” as follows:

The description and explanation of “What happened in Phnom Penh?” by Erlinda Basilio clearly represented the official position of the Philippines, and therefore just one view among the ASEAN Member-States. The format of this description and explanation is between fiction and fact, which Erlinda Basilio has tried to manipulate, distort and exaggerate in order to make her case. After having carefully reviewed what she has termed “fictions” and “facts” all readers may be convinced of her story telling. Below is what I would like to clarify between fictions and facts in order to ensure that all of your readers have a better understanding of what actually transpired in Phnom Penh during the 45th ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting (AMM) and other ASEAN-related meetings.

First, it is a fiction or inventing reality when stated that “. . . the failure of the Chair to gain a consensus” of all ASEAN Member-States. In fact, eight out of ten ASEAN Member-States agreed to all 132 points in the Joint Communiqué of the AMM, including the 3 paragraphs (14, 15, 17) related to the South China Sea, except paragraph 16 which is the bilateral disputes between the Philippines and China and Vietnam and China, despite the tireless efforts of the ASEAN Chair as well as those of other ASEAN Member-States. Both the Philippines and Vietnam continued to insist from July 9 until the last day of the meeting (July 13) to include their national bilateral disputes with China in the JC. By doing so, the two countries wanted to sabotage and hijack the JC as well as the AMM, and to make them fail before the eyes of the ASEAN Dialogue Partners and the International Community. It was truly an un-ASEAN spirit of unity and solidarity.

Second, the “souring of the mood” which led to the non-issuance of the JC could undoubtedly be attributed to the inflexible and non-negotiable position of the two countries, the Philippines and Vietnam. As a matter of fact, the Foreign Secretary of the Philippines stated at the meeting that on the bilateral dispute between the Philippines and China, it was non-negotiable, and therefore he insisted that it must be included in the JC, or there would be no JC at all. In other words, the two countries demanded that ASEAN collectively must yield to the national interests of the Philippines and Vietnam, even if it is at the expense of ASEAN.

DFA to summon Cambodian envoy [-Diplomatic fallout between Manila and Phnom Penh]

The Philippine Star
“We will be giving a note verbale which includes our protest. We are going to summon the Cambodian ambassador to ask him to explain what he meant when he stated that the ‘inflexible and non-negotiable position of two countries of ASEAN is dirty politics’
MANILA, Philippines - The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) will summon Cambodia’s top diplomat in the Philippines and ask him to explain his accusation that “dirty politics” was behind the “inflexible and non-negotiable” position of the Philippines and Vietnam on the inclusion of the West Philippine Sea dispute with China in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) agenda in its 45th ministerial meeting recently.

Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario said yesterday DFA Undersecretary for Policy Erlinda Basilio is set to hand a note verbale today to Ambassador Hos Sereythonh to protest the allegations he made in his letter-to-the-editor published in The STAR. The Philippines and Vietnam had vigorously pushed for a common ASEAN stand on China’s incursions in the West Philippine Sea.

“He is being summoned this afternoon and be presented a note verbale,” Del Rosario said.

Basilio said the ambassador was originally summoned to appear yesterday but begged off for health reasons.

Vietnam blogger's mother 'dies in self-immolation'

Ho Chi Minh City's 7th military zone stadium is seen in 2007. The mother of a prominent Vietnamese blogger has died after setting herself on fire ahead of her daughter's trial for propaganda against the Communist state, sources close to the family said
By Cat Barton | AFP – 07/30/2012
Tan used her blog to denounce corruption and injustice in Vietnam's legal system.
The mother of a prominent Vietnamese blogger has died after setting herself on fire ahead of her daughter's trial for propaganda against the Communist state, people close to the family said Monday.

Ta Phong Tan, a 43-year-old Catholic former policewoman, was arrested in September 2011 and has been held in detention along with two other bloggers, one of whose case has been raised by US President Barack Obama.

Tan's mother Dang Thi Kim Lieng set herself ablaze early Monday, according to Catholic activists and lawyers whose accounts to AFP were corroborated by reports on dissident blogs and the BBC's Vietnamese-language service.

"Her wounds were very serious and she died on the way to the hospital," said Dinh Huu Thoai, a priest close to the family of Tan, who is due in court in Ho Chi Minh City next week alongside the two other bloggers.

The trio are accused of "distorting the truth, denigrating the party and state" by posting hundreds of political articles on the banned website "Free Journalists Club" of Vietnam, as well as writing on their own blogs.

Criticisms on Chea Mony by HNM

Thitinan vs Cambodian Ambassador [M'am You Ay]

Jul 30, 2012
By Bangkok Pundit
Asian Correspondant

Thitinan had an op-ed on Friday in the Bangkok Post entitled “China, US widen Asean rifts”. The Cambodian Ambassador responds in a letter to the editor in the Bangkok Post. BP has excerpted some of the choice insults:

I wish to clear up some points of misperception written by Thitinan Pongsudhirak in the opinion section of the Bangkok Post on July 27 entitled “Asean rifts widen as China, US rivalry grows”.

First, those who said the Peace Palace was ”funded and adorned by Chinese arts” are simply ignorant people.


Second, the assertion that China has become an ”open patron state of Phnom Penh” with more than US$10 billion (310 billion baht) in aid and investment is purely insulting.…

Third, the allegation that Cambodia ”shared the draft version of the joint statement with the Chinese, who then vetoed it” is extremely disparaging and slanderous. Those who make such scathing remarks against Cambodia have no other intention than to defame Cambodia’s credibility.

When and where did Mr Thitinan obtain this information, or did he copy it blindly from one other journalist without credible facts to substantiate their allegations? Or is it a deliberate smear campaign against Cambodia?


The answer is clear: these two Asean countries had their own hidden plan to sabotage the AMM and made the JC a hostage of their bilateral disputes.

BP: She obviously went to the Kasit School of Diplomacy. Interestingly, the words “incorrect” and “wrong” do not appear once in the Ambassador’s letter. Perhaps, their usage may have been a better way to convey the point….

I wish to clear up some points of misperception written by Thitinan Pongsudhirak in the opinion section of the Bangkok Post on July 27 entitled "Asean rifts widen as China, US rivalry grows".

First, those who said the Peace Palace was ''funded and adorned by Chinese arts'' are simply ignorant people.

The building's construction was fully funded with the national budget of Cambodia and its internal adornments reflect quintessential Khmer ancient art forms.

The building was designed and built by young Cambodian architects and engineers. China provided assistance only for the construction of the adjacent building and not the Peace Palace.

Cambodia: Continued Disruption Of Community Empowerment

Monday, 30 July 2012
Press Release: Asian Human Rights Commission

A Joint Statement from the Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association and the Cambodian Center for Human Rights forwarded by the Asian Human Rights Commission (AHRC)

Phnom Penh, 27 July 2012 -- The Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association (ADHOC) and the Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) condemn the disruption of a training session on land rights jointly organized in Rattanakiri province this morning. ADHOC and CCHR call on all public authorities to put an end to intimidation of human rights workers and to comply with Cambodia’s obligations by upholding citizens’ rights to free expression and assembly.

At 8:30am on 27 July, as villagers gathered in a house in Patang village, Patang commune, Lumphat district, three commune police officers, one provincial police officer, the Village Chief, the Commune Chief and the Deputy Commune Chief knocked on the door and demanded that the meeting be discontinued. They argued that they received orders from provincial authorities and that the meeting organizers failed to satisfy notification requirements.

Mr. Pen Bonnar, ADHOC’s Provincial Coordinator, ignored the orders and proceeded with the meeting. Fifteen minutes later, two additional police officers were sent by the district authorities. One of them carried an M-16 assault rifle. Considering this threat and in view of the attendees’ physical safety, ADHOC and CCHR decided to stop the meeting. Upon their departure, Patang Commune Chief accused ADHOC of engaging in incitement activities. Pen Bonnar now intends to file a complaint for defamation against Patang Village Chief. CCHR staff were told by police that if they did not leave the area, their security would not be guaranteed.

No one batted an eye when the barriers went up ahead of the recent ASEAN Foreign Ministers Meeting, but weeks later, residents are scratching their heads as to why they’re still being forced to detour around a nearly kilometer-long stretch of Sothearos Boulevard that runs in front of the Royal Palace.

The answer, it turns out, is simple: the king is not a fan of the noise.

Heng Chantheary, director of Phnom Penh’s municipal traffic office, told the Post yesterday that the closure of the road was made following a proposal paper from deputy prime minister and Royal Palace minister Kong Sam Ol.

Members of the newest political party in town are attending a meet-and-greet session in Phnom Penh today.

The Democratic Movement for National Rescue, a hybrid of the Sam Rainsy and Human Rights parties, has invited its provincial leaders for a gathering at HRP headquarters.

The purpose is to “be aquainted with each other and strengthen cooperation”.

SRP spokesman Yim Sovann and HRP spokesman Pol Ham told the Post yesterday that the event will foster dialogue between commune chiefs from both parties now under the same tent.

Sovann said the main point of the session is to publish a political platform and to establish rules for joint meetings in communes and provinces.
