“Democratic leaders should skip the congratulations and instead insist on an independent investigation into malfeasance at the polls,” Brad Adams
Daniel Pye The Phnom Penh Post Thu, 24 October 2013Human Rights Watch yesterday took the key donor governments of Japan, Australia and France to task for congratulating Prime Minister Hun Sen on his official election victory in a strongly worded statement that called on them to support an independent investigation into July’s disputed poll.
The rights group said the ruling Cambodian People’s Party had shown an “unwillingness” to seriously address complaints of fraud resulting in “an election that has created significant doubt about whether the official results reflect the votes”.
“Democratic leaders should skip the congratulations and instead insist on an independent investigation into malfeasance at the polls,” Brad Adams, Asia director at Human Rights Watch, said in the statement.
“Frankly, it was just a matter of time before Japan, Australia and France congratulated Hun Sen on his victory, following a long line of countries to do so,” he said. “While the US and UK have yet to formally congratulate Mr Hun Sen … they’ve already conceded to the final election results,” he added, pointing to US Ambassador William Todd’s decision to attend the opening of the National Assembly in September, a move he said had little to do with expressing respect for the King as he told reporters.
Nicolas Baudouin, first secretary at the French Embassy, said that while the EU in September called for dialogue to reform the electoral system, maintaining stability was a priority.

Tan Keo commented that the international community’s post-election response represented “a familiar political pattern of quietly conceding to the ruling party, for many reasons, including the need to maintain peace and stability”.
The Australian and Japanese embassies had not responded to requests for comment by press time.

Some people have raised the question whether the CNRP's demonstration conform to the law.
They should ask this question instead:
Is stealing the people's vote conform to the law ?
It is painful just to hear the word law in this Yuon's slave kingdom, which has been practicing
the Safari's law.
Moreover, the words Hun Sen and CPP have caused people bad health because they are extremely mad when they heard them.

In the name of peace and stability at the cost of justice and democracy is idiotic by by any standard. Winston Churchill tried to appease Hitler and you know what happened. It's never too late to do the right thing. These countries have so much leverage to change the current state. It is morally the right thing to do.

Peter Tan Keo
Mr Peter Tan Keo forgot willingly or unwillingly that US and EU may take action to freeze the garment trade and to the extent the Cambodian regime. Please do not dine and wine too much with CPP spoiling your Harvard degree.
Hun Sen and his CPP don’t want to work with opposition CNRP to create independent investigation on the election fraud because the fact Hun Sen and his CPP had stole the people votes.
So the donors should pressure to Hun Sen and his CPP.

“A familiar political pattern of quietly conceding to the ruling party, for many reasons, including the need to maintain peace and stability”. Peter Tan Keo
I have never known Mr Pater Tan Koe who he is?
Could he answer of my following questions:
1) Before the 28th election, Hun Sen declared that if he lose the election Cambodia will start the civil war. So, Hun Sen will the war like the elction 1993 too ( at the time CPP lost election) because he has armee.
2) Why most Khmer voted for CNRP? Because they are afraid from losing Cambodia into the Indochina confederation under Viet control like the Laos today. But if he is serving for a foreigner or he's Viet descent like Chim Phalvarum (His mother is Viet), then his argument is absolutely correct.
Could KI tell who he is?
12:58 AM CPP INTERNSHIP?
Adding from 12:58 AM,
Obove, someone who told me Mr Peter Tan Keo comes from Harvard University! Okay, I accept the name of this university but not all graduates from this university are the best one, please take care to other universities on the Globe too, please don't blind!. When this person comes from CPP, so they must support for CPP. But the problem in Cambodia is the conflict between Khmer and Viet/Vietpuppet, lots illegale immegrants from Vietnam in Cambodia, record systematic corruption from top to low leaders, miss management in the whole country and social injustice. Please look to PhD Chim Phalvarun (he came from humboldt university in East Germany [communist PhD]) but why he is working now for Viet because his mother is Viet and mr Peter Tan Keo maybe the same or he know nothing about Khmer real history, just only after 17th Januar 1979?
This guy Mr Peter Tan Keo is the virus marketing for CPP, please all Khmers don't take attention on this guy. Anyways he nedd more experience for his career. roger
THE SUSPECT MAN IN KHMER POLITICS WHO HAS HIDDEN THE TRUTH. THERE A LOT A STRENGTH THING HAVE HAPPENED WITH HIM.WORE MONK ROBE WITH TO BE A MONK; ALWAYS LOOKING OPPORTUNITY TO ATTACK SAM RAINSY;RELATION WITH SOURN SEREY RATHA WHO HAS POLITICAL ACTIVITY AGAINST SAM RAINSY, AND SEEMS TO FAVOR HUN SEN IN THE SENSE THAT DO NOT SHOW UP TO PARTICIPATE IN THE ELECTION AGAINST HUN SEN.

PLEASE ANALYSE WHAT HE SAID ABOUT SOURN SEREY RATHA:

maybe the cpp thinks it's not important or waste of resources to look inot the alleged irregularities while the concerned citizens do want this kind of irregularities to stop happening because the election will happen again and again in the future every 5 years. if nobody say or do something about it, the cheater will continue to cheat. so, in a way, i think it is good thing people demand clear answer. but on the other hand, too, the gov't thinks these group of people are just trouble-makers, thus, look at them as unimportant as they always throw tantrum at everybody who tend to disagree with them or those who see it from a different angle or different perspective. so, who is to make the final decision? i say, the judge, the independent judicial branch, that is, if cambodia has one. that's how america solved their last election disagreement, the US supreme court rule over it! that is a real "check and balance" system, if i may say so! the question here is: does cambodia have the check and balance system like that of the USA? maybe not now, but people want that in the future. is that right? what do the people want. remember gov't rules, not the people. but the way it is going now, the people want to rule the gov't which cambodian way, they have hard time understanding it. in other words, perhaps that concept is new to cambodian people and gov't and it's not in their vocabulary. i mean, one has to be inquisitive all the time, especially if they do not understand what is going on.
if the real problem among khmer and khmer is the viet/youn issue, then why don't people be direct about it and say it to the world? if not, why use it as an excuse to fight each other all the time? makes no sense to anyone!
don't forget using racial pretext is getting old and boring. if there is no truth to it, then it is just an outdated habit, a tradition politicians to do so in cambodia. that's why i kept saying there ought to be law in cambodia against racism, social discrimination, etc, etc. especially people in gov't or leaders, they all should know better not to allow this sort of thing. it is so unethical and unprofessional, to say the list. those of you who been to college and have some kind of college degree should know this already! you can't be discriminatory in gov't. in private or personal affairs, that is different, do whatever you want, but at work or in gov't you can't just do that! that's what people need to understand. everytime, people discrimination whether against youn or whatever, they get turned off and become uninterested. it's geting old! do something new, instead of the old way! wake up people!
to me, colleges don't matter, as long as you earn a degree from there. the difference is you pay more for certain colleges and more rigid to get in then others, that's the difference. but the level of education is the same, trust me, i've been to colleges.
Most of Rainsy supporter are so blind with hatered, they only blame othe for the wrong, but not them self, if any body don't agree with them there are the enermy. These people just bunch of coward.

Tan Keo commented that the international community’s post-election response represented “a familiar political pattern of quietly conceding to the ruling party, for many reasons, including the need to maintain peace and stability”.
I feel sorry for him to make such comment with his judgement. He must understand that the importance of success in life is to establish a solid personal and professional merit. And this is a long way for him to go for his future which not necessary means he will be always successful to hold a Howard degree.
As a matter of fact he should be ashamed of holding a Howard degree to make such comment to go against Khmer people as a whole and Cambodia's interest.
Of course he has a right to comment but his baseless comment only reflects his personality and moral value as 12:58 AM and 1:20 AM have pointed out with great responses to challenge it in details above.
His comment reflects the CPP group including Hun Sen and his wife who hold their Phd degree, do these degrees correctly serve their merits?
Tan Keo will soon learn about the complexity and the impermanence when he experiences the ups and downs in his life.
I've already seen many who've made similar mistakes and lose credentials.

"Most of Rainsy supporter are so blind with hatered, they only blame other for the wrong, but not them self,"
3:43 AM,
You can't even write English correctly, how can do you understand anything? The one who's blind is you. Almost the entire country are against your father, Ah Hun Shit, except Vietcong peoples and Vietcong Dogs.
Khmer peoples don't hate anybody, infact they even accomodated those who need help, then revolted against Khmers, just like Siem and Vietnamese took Khmer land since 1400s.
Siem and Vietnamese peoples not only took Khmer land, but did not let Khmer peoples live in peace. Communist Vietcong barbarian is behind this CRIMINAL CPP govt to finish Khmer off, so they can conquer Cambodia.
Now you tell me, do Khmer peoples are racial, when Siem thugs and communist Vietcong barbarian still want more Khmer land? If you say yes, it's mean you need to learn more history about "Khmer Empire" and what happened after.
So the conclusion is, you're the one who's completely blind just like your father, Ah Hun Shit.
Tan Keo is a recent dog of another CPP "All but Dissertation" Dr. Kao Kim Hourn.
Btw, there are many CPP "All but Dissertation" or just pure suspicious PhD or DBA such as Dr. Pa Socheatavong from Southern California that does not exist.
(Southern California does not exist but there is University of Southern California: USC and there is no DBA at USC but PhD)
Gentlemen,
Is he saying that Cambodians do not want to work together?
With intimidation, police exercises in liberty square, is a sign of inducing fear to demonstrators.
Common grounds to work together is response to the needs of Cambodians already have been demonstrated.
To achieve that unless CPP recognise these needs, NOT the CPP demands and pushed to a single party parliament with the trick of King's support.
Not being transparent, independent the king has proved that Cambodians no longer has the real peace that kingdom should offer.
Regardless where academic degree people get it from, when Ethics is not there then the benefits of mankind is NOT served. So please stop playing game with the labels, and in fact this game has used for a long time such his excellency bandit Chan Sarun such and such...
This trick is not worthwhile anymore . Similarly, the trick to poor Cambodians by offering gifts for votes and so on... No longer work.
If he persists on both parties discussion, the areas of common grounds have to established, responding demands of so many thousands of people. You cannot suggest discussion without fair grounds, otherwise he is a blind to lead a handicap .
Without ETHICS , PhDs has no VALUE.

The French said stability in Cambodia is their first priority. So French message is that if any party can take Cambodia into the path of destruction and war, then that party will surely get France endorsement to stay in power, even the party win the election by any mean necessary and any way as long as they did not steal outright.
France made any mistakes for Cambodia in the past, and continue to make mistake in the present.
France should not have been liberated by America from Nazis in WWII because France is the country
Of hypocrisy and coward. France only know how to make wine, sex and kiss.
Democracy and freedom are just a fake promise by France.
Remember that those foreign countries are putting their interests first before others. If Khmers don't help themselves, who will.
"... the key donor governments of Japan, Australia and France to task for congratulating Prime Minister Hun Sen on his official election victory..."
Who would have thought that every election under Hun Sen Vietnamese puppet regime for the past 30 years is more about foreign interest and private business investments? It is so sad that Cambodian democracy is only a slogan used by Hun Sen Vietnamese puppet regime to fool Cambodian people and the world.
Cambodian farmers are made homeless due to the so called economic development such as "the EU’s ‘Everything But Arms’ (EBA) trade scheme in Cambodia." and the Vietnamese rubber plantation...
The only people who benefit are the rich and powerful who are well connected with Hun Sen Vietnamese puppet government. For this reason Cambodia needs democracy so that all Cambodian people can participate and compete for economic prosperity. Hun Sen can no longer keep economic prosperity to himself!
Some of Rainsy supporter are blind with hatred, that why there will be no peace for that Nation called "Cambodia".
Some khmer people only blame other for their own suffering, they cannot see the light at the end of tunnel, because they are so blind with hatered.
To 2:45PM and 2:56PM
If what you said is true then Hun Sen Vietnamese puppet government must agree to independent inquiry into election frauds. Hun Sen Vietnamese puppet government can end all the demonstration right now by agree to independent inquiry! Unless Hun Sen Vietnamese puppet government is a criminal.
In the end to get rid of Hun Sen and the CPP, Cambodians can only depend on themselves!
Pissed Off
I don't where mr Tan Keo comes from but I want let you know Cambodian people are hating dictatorial communism like Hun Sen do today. And who had bring the communists to Cambodia? the man names Sihamouk and the killing fields was caused by Sihanouk too, please all Khmer must understand this. Why? Because of his political surface of Sihanouk and help Ho Chi Mihn and cooperated with China. As King, why he must work with communist?
whatever the cnrp group is doing, cambodia must emphasize the rule of law. the rule of law will reveal in cambodia, like it or not!as human being, we must live by the rule of law. every country on earth needs the rule of law. that's include cambodia! they can disagree, but the rule of law is the code of ethics we all must live by, that's what distinguish human beings from the animals world. rule of law can be fair when we have educated personnel and have the mentality that is necessary and mandatory. this is where the leap of faith comes in. we must give cambodia a chance to shine with the rule of law society. don't doubt that, just let it shines in cambodia. educate the whole country about it! there are ways to get grievances heard and discontent looked at. try the judicial system, if the judicial system is weak, then reform it big time. that's how you find solution. there ought to be a mechanism to put all in the equation for the sake of fairness for all khmer people in all of cambodia. work together and keep seeking the right individuals to help put the formula together so all is fair and sound and just. it is called compromise, cooperation, negotiation, dialogue all within the contesting khmer election. we are talking about cambodia's affair here. just do it. it may take time, but by all means, just do it! that's part of the gov't job and all leadership's job, to look for way to make it happening and fair and sound and just so all in cambodia can enjoy the benefit of improvements! it's a hard job, but someone capable must be willing to do it! cambodia needs tough, effective, competitive individual who are smart, wise, enlightened, experienced, educated and who have vision for a better cambodia. keep looking and searching for those individual and invite them into gov't to help find solution and make it work. for crying out loud, cambodia and its people needs it the most!
in this new era of cambodia, people should stop taking advantage of cambodia and help it to grow and develop instead! the result can be rewarding for all. in the name of god, help make cambodia a better country for all to enjoy.
