Planned protest will be conducted in "form of prayer": Cambodia opposition

PHNOM PENH, Sept. 2 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia's long-time opposition leader Sam Rainsy said Monday that a mass protest, planned on Sept. 7 against the election results, would be held throughout the country in the form of prayer for peace.

"The spirit of our demonstration has changed. The demonstration will be conducted in the spirit of a national prayer -- prayer for peace, but peace in justice," Sam Rainsy, President of the Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP), said in a press conference at the party's headquarters.


Rainsy announced last Thursday that the party would hold a nonviolent demonstration on Sept. 7 in order to reject the results of the July 28 election in which Prime Minister Hun Sen's ruling party won a majority of vote.

"We decided to change our protest spirit from a nonviolent demonstration to a nationwide protest in the form of prayer in order to follow the recommendations from the King (Norodom Sihamoni), who wishes not to see any violence," he said.


Rainsy said the main location for the protest on Sept. 7 is the Freedom Park in Phnom Penh and the event will be started from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. local time with a Buddhist ceremony.

"We will not do anything that can lead to social unrest," he said, appealing to all participants not to bring along with explosives, knives, axes, clubs, or stones, but candles, incense sticks and flowers.


"I think that it will be a big revolution because Cambodia has always had the culture of violence so that it will be a model for the people to follow the culture of nonviolent demonstration," he said.

Some 2,000 anti-riot police got a special training session on Sunday at the capital's Diamond Island Center in preparation for dealing with any disobedient protests.

Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Sar Kheng said that in order to facilitate security affairs and to ensure public order, nonviolent protests would be allowed only at "Freedom Parks" in cities and provinces.

"All authorities and competent armed forces must carefully implement their respective duties with high responsibility and adherence to the laws in order to maintain security, safety, and public order during any peaceful demonstration," he said in a public announcement on Sunday, advising those armed forces to " exercise their utmost restraints in order to avoid at all cost of potential clashes."


He also urged oil and gas companies and retail stations to properly store those substances and should cooperate with local authorities in order to avoid any possible risks.

The National Election Committee (NEC) has released the initial election results, showing that the Cambodian People's Party (CPP) of long-serving Prime Minister Hun Sen won the poll with 68 of the 123 parliamentary seats, and the CNRP took the remaining 55 seats.

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

The CNRP has repeatedly demanded the CPP to jointly establish an independent committee to look into alleged vote irregularities during the election, but the CPP ruled out the request since it was contrary to the constitution.

Currently, the Constitutional Council, which is the country's final arbiter, has been resolving complaints filed by the opposition party against the election results, but the opposition accused the Constitutional Council of being loyal to the CPP.

The official election results will be officially released on September 8.

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

Prime Minister Hun Sen has said 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 rule the country for another five years through the election victory.

10:15 PM,

You sound like a violent and murderous Yuon/Vietnamese dog eater just like secret/hidden murderous Yuon/Vietnamese agents (including Khmer Vietminh like Hun Sen, Hor Nam Hong, Keat Chonn, Heng Samrin, Chea Sim, Var Kim Hong, Yeay Phu, etc.) of 1975-1979 Killing Fields in Cambodia.

We Khmer will destroy and catch you in either Cambodia or other countries like USA, Canada, Australia, etc. where you have been hiding.

We watch out on the words that hypocrite Yuon/Vietnamese dog eaters say to twist the history to make the thief nation or dog eating nation Communist Yuon/Vietnam and we can hit their heads where it hurts.

10;15pm,
Just pray for Peace for our Khmers that Khmers
can reach peace, independent self governe, But don't put evils into our minds with revenge by bloody with angry fire burning our souls. It is not our job to cut throat by making a declaration what we do to anybody. Peace, freedom, independent and self governing washout Yuon interference that's what we need right now.
We kill them, they kill us, ... on and on again, when are you going to stop this revenge? Until we Khmers will be extincted.

Stop this evil revenge declaration if we want to be still a nation.

12:47am these real Khmers will follow their leaders by demonstrating for Peace. if among them carrying knives like you mentioned, then they are Yuon spies just like you.

when will your Yuon stop destroying Khmers?
I said in one if my post today that among those protestors will be Yuon spies, carry bomb grenades, and will try to cause confusion killing Khmers. you now proved my comment is right.

No matter how much power and glory your Yuon have, those shall pass away (will one day fall), but God's Words shall not pass away (your crimes against heaven will be severely punished). No evils can escape from the punishment if God from the beginning until the end.

Hello Folks,

Read this Yuon spy 12:47 am

she/he said: "Sure pray for peace..but don.t bring a knife to a gun fight.."

Yuon spy in KI admitted it that among our Khmer protestors will be some CPP/Yuon carry knives to a gun fire.

Well well, Yuon, you aren't that clever at all. We knew your tricks.

Demonstration must go but in a form of peaceful demonstration with praying.

TO OUR CIOMPATRIOTS AND THE CNRP:

Praying will never work with the evil Vietnam and its puppet Hun Sen. I knew the result of the praying already: Zero.

However, it would show the CNRP's weakness, no realistic plan to achieve its goal.

Khmer people have empowered you (CNRP) to win the election already. Your job is to take the necessary steps to claim that win.

I said before that it was fortunate that Sdach Lob Sihanouk died last year. If Sihanouk were alive, he would have forced the CNRP to give in to whatever Hun Sen wanted.

So, please don't be so stupid by considering to any Sihamoni's suggestion. He is simply a tool for Hun Sen. Sihamoni said whatever Hun Sen told him to.

Did Sihamoni ratify and promulgate the 2005 supplemental treaty, which sealed Koh Tral as Vietnam's property and allowed the Vietnamese to infiltrate into Cambodia at will, etc...?

Here is my suggestion:

Vietnam wanted to swallow Cambodia a very long time ago. Vietnam has been controlling Cambodia for 33 years.

Do you think Vietnam will relieve its grip on Cambodia after the CNRP's praying ?
No way Jose.

It will require a powerful force from the international community to make this evil Vietnam leave Cambodia for good. The international community needs a leverage to break Vietnam's grips.

Where is that leverage and who has it ?

The CNRP knows, Khmer people know, and I know that the only way to stop Vietnam is through a peaceful demonstration. We must invoke Mahatma Gandhi's concept by marching peacefully, demanding the CPP to accept its electoral loss or we offer the CPP a new election if this Vietnam's slave felt that its loss was a fluke.

We march peacefully, daring this evil Vietnam and its puppet to shoot us. Only when the killings were enormous that the international would exercise its right to intervene and help Cambodia. Otherwise, the evil Vietnam and its puppet Hun Sen would deplore the international community as the interferer of Cambodia's internal affair.

The number of Khmer people who got killed in the demonstration is the LEVERAGE that the international community needs to intervene to help Cambodia. Khmer people are the creators of such leverage.

If the evil Vietnam lost its soldiers to conquer Cambodia, it would be logical that Khmer people lose some lives to save Cambodia. No other way around.

I have put the number at 100,000 people death to win over this evil Vietnam.

Khmer people cannot back down after some people got killed. Use those brave Khmer people death as a motive, a fuel, a catalyst to go forward until the international community move in to help us. We cannot do one half way, one half measure.

Our protest has a solid foundation: we demand for justice, the loser must accept the electoral result.

Are 100,000 people too many to sacrifice to save Cambodia?

It is absolutely not, considering the fact that Khmer people will suffer heavily after Cambodia becomes a province of Vietnam or 3 million Khmer people who were largely killed by the evil Vietnam through its Khmer Vietminh during the Pol Pot era.

I put the number at 100,000 because I don't want to see people discourage after some brave Khmer people die during the peaceful demonstration.

In brief, we help ourselves first by creating a leverage, give it to the international community to hit that evil Vietnam and its puppet, then finally a lasting peace will come to Cambodia.

Note: Sam Rainsy was almost killed in the 1997 grenade attack. In this life, there are not many second chance. Therefore, Sam Rainsy and Kem Sokha must not present at the rally. I don't want to see the words that "we are sorry, Sam Rainsy and Kem Sokha got killed during the demonstration." Be smart, Khmer people have already respected both of you as brave patriots, and nobody will call you coward when you do not show up at the rally. This is a successful and best tactic. We need both of you to lead the country, not to die prematurely

You wrote your comment nicely, I almost share with others, but you allowed the hate tempted you, then you displayed a low class type of language such as calling King Sihanouk (Sdach Lob Sihanouk).

You know what? You cannot be a politician who can help Khmers, when you cannot deal with others in a diplomat manner.

You should learn how to hold your anger and practice "Killing the enemy with kindness", that's how Yuon have been doing to Khmers for 500 years.

If you are the leader of opposition, you will be shot by other nationalists for your jeopardizing the movement toward freedom and independent.

By now you at least learn how to be in the game, don't just try to make these few crazy KI's visitors to get excited and start to curse.

Are you nut? This is not a Circus, it reality relates to our lives, our freedom, you Son of bitch (SOB).

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?
