Cambodian opposition renews protest warning





English.news.cn August 26, 2013

PHNOM PENH, Aug. 26 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia's long-time opposition leader Sam Rainsy once again threatened to call nationwide demonstrations if an independent committee was not established to look into allegations of poll irregularities.


"We strongly insist the establishment of an independent committee to investigate election irregularities before the release of the final election results (on Sept. 8)," Sam Rainsy, president of the Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP), said in a press conference at the party's headquarters on Monday.

Rainsy insists that the composition of the proposed independent probe committee exclude the current National Election Committee ( NEC), seen as being loyal to the ruling Cambodian People's Party ( CPP) of long-serving Prime Minister Hun Sen.


However, the CPP has rejected the request, saying that no probe committee would be formed without the NEC's involvement because it was against the Cambodian law.

"If our request is not met, our last resort is nonviolent and peaceful protests throughout the country," Rainsy said.

The country held a general election on July 28. Initial election results showed that the ruling CPP won the election with 68 seats of the 123 parliamentary seats, while the opposition CNRP got the remaining 55 seats.

But the CNRP rejected the results, saying that it should win 63 seats, with the CPP getting the remaining 60 seats if poll irregularities were fairly resolved.

Soldiers, police and military police with armored vehicles have been deployed around Phnom Penh City since early this month after the opposition has repeatedly threatened to call mass protests.


Under the country's constitution, a new parliament will be inaugurated no later than 60 days after the election.

Prime Minister Hun Sen said on Aug. 2 that a new parliament and a new government would be established as scheduled despite the opposition's boycott.

According to the constitution, he said, a new government would be formed by a 50 percent plus one majority, or 63 lawmakers, in the new parliament.

Hun Sen, 61, who has been in power for 28 years, will extend his power for further five years through the election victory.

To His Excellency Sam Rainsy and Excellency Kem Sokha With Highest Regards:

Sirs, I understand why you are taking such position by delaying this national protest against the National Election Committee which oversees the electoral process in Cambodia, however, should you're both continue to delay this protest, the will of the people will change and with time passing by, the strength of our people will also fading away. Now is the greatest opportunity where CNRP can challenge NEC and asking that Mr. Hun Sen to step down from power immediately. It has been 34 years since 1979 and Cambodia is going nowhere and it is time for a new government which elected by the will of the people. There are two options available for CNRP to take at this time: One is to seek a new election for future date; two is to ask Mr. Hun Sen to step down from power without negotiation. We're all knew what the outcome is if we were to have another election...CNRP will win again, so to make it short and without further embarrassment, it is better for Mr. Hun Sen to step down. I am humbly asking your Excellencies to do diligence to make sure that Mr. Hun Sen is stepping down without further negotiation or delaying. Cambodians cannot wait any longer.

Your Highest Regards.

Koh Tral Island must not be forgotten

By “any patriot Khmers”

Why do Koh Tral Island, known in Vietnam as Phu Quoc, a sea and land area covering proximately over 30,000 km2 [Note: the actual land size of Koh Tral itself is 574 square kilometres (222 sq miles)] have been lost to Vietnam by whose treaty? Why don’t Cambodia government be transparent and explain to Cambodia army at front line and the whole nation about this? Why don't they include this into education system? Why?

Cambodian armies are fighting at front line for 4.6 km2 on the Thai border and what's about over 30,000km2 of Cambodia to Vietnam. Nobody dare to talk about it! Why? Cambodian armies you are decide the fate of your nation, Cambodian army as well as Cambodian people must rethink about this again and again. Is it fair?

Koh Tral Island, the sea and land area of over 30,000 square kilometres have been lost to Vietnam by the 1979 to 1985 treaties. The Cambodian army at front line as well as all Cambodian people must rethink again about these issues. Are Cambodian army fighting to protect the Cambodia Nation or protecting a very small group that own big lands, big properties or only protecting a small group but disguising as protecting the Khmer nation?

The Cambodian army at front lines suffer under rain, wind, bullets, bombs, lack of foods, lack of nutrition and their families have no health care assistance, no securities after they died but a very small group eat well, sleep well, sleep in first class hotel with air conditioning system with message from young girls, have first class medical care from oversea medical treatments, they are billionaires, millionaires who sell out the country to be rich and make the Cambodian people suffer everyday.

Who signed the treaty 1979-1985 that resulted in the loss over 30,000 km2 of Cambodia??? Why they are not being transparent and brave enough to inform all Cambodians and Cambodian army at front line about these issues? Why don't they include Koh Tral (Koh Tral size is bigger than the whole Phom Phen and bigger than Singapore [Note: Singapore's present land size is 704 km2 (271.8 sq mi)]) with heap of great natural resources, in the Cambodian education system?

Look at Hun Sen's families, relatives and friends- they are billionaires, millionaires. Where did they get the money from when we all just got out of war with empty hands [in 1979]? Hun Sen always say in his speeches that Cambodia had just risen up from the ashes of war, just got up from Year Zero with empty hands and how come they are billionaires, millionaires but 90% of innocent Cambodian people are so poor and struggling with their livelihood every day?
