PRESS RELEASE
___________________________
She became the first civil party in international law.
Also unprecedented in international law, she confronted her mass murderers (Nuon Chea, Khieu Samphan, Ieng Sary, Ieng Thirith) in the ECCC courtroom and in her own voice as civil party argued for their continued pre-trial detention. She fought hard and won the right for a civil party to address the Chamber in person.
For a period of six years, Ms. Seng was the “poster child” for the genocide and a strong, articulate voice
(spanning the national-international spectrum) as victim and
opinion-maker in supporting the ECCC despite its serious flaws. She
believed the ECCC to be necessary as a “court of law” in catalyzing
benefits in the “court of public opinion” and viewed these benefits to
outweigh the deep problems of political interference, UN apathy,
corruption, incompetence, etc.
No longer. Within recent months, the scale has tipped for her. These compounded, viciously intractable, toxic shenanigans are threatening to transform the real but still fragile embryonic benefits into irreversible cynicism, the worst legacy imaginable for an already distrusting, mistrusting, long-suffering people.
Consequently, Ms. Seng no longer wishes to have any legal association with this ECCC which is mocking the dead, her and other victims and embedding impunity; she cannot do otherwise but to withdraw her status as civil party in Case 002 as well as the appeal of her civil party application in Cases 003 and 004.

Moreover, she
denounces this ECCC as a political farce, an irreversible sham of
extraordinary perversion in denying justice to victims, exploiting their
suffering, soiling the memories of their loved ones and embedding
cynicism in an already fragile population living in paranoia, mistrust and distrust.
Following her visit to the ECCC, she will hold a press conference to discuss her decisions, her new role vis-à-vis the ECCC as well as to introduce the Poetic Justice Products as one means of salvaging the benefits from the nefarious legacy of this vacuous grand pageantry that is the two-hundred-million-dollar ECCC.

Why this ECCC in Cambodia has had so many problems and obstacles from Hun Sen?
Because this ECCC is Hanoi ECCC in Cambodia.
Some problems and obstacles are:
1. This ECCC has been dragging on and on to avoid court process.
2. Hun Sen has political interference into this ECCC.
3. Hun Sen stronly opposed Cases 003-004.
4. Hun Sen said for those who want to investigate Cases 003-004 must pack up their belongings and leave Cambodia.
5. So many foreign judges resigned so far.
5. Widespread corrutions in this ECCC.
6. Delay ECCC Khmer staffs payment.
7. Last but not least , Nuon Chea and Khieu Samphan has not been allowed to speak out for what has happened before 1975 and for what has happened after 1979 such as K 5 plan.
I can tell you now this ECCC will put Nuon Chea and Khieu Samphan in lives sentence, I don't need to wait till the verdict from this ECCC declared.
It is all about Indochina Federation to put Lao and Khmer under yuon Hanoi yoke. And to exterminated Khmer ethnics from our own homeland.
