The Phnom Penh Post | 11 October 2013
Commentary by Ms. Theary C. Seng
The law is a servant of justice, and thus must serve the will and intent of “we, the Cambodian
people”, the heart of the Constitution, National Assembly, and
government in a “liberal, multi-party
democracy”.
It
is true that no one or few elected representatives can hijack the establishment
process by failing without cause to show up at the inaugural oath-swearing first
session.
But
here, in light of the totality of circumstances of the election
season of widespread fraud, the CPP’s repeatedly refusal to an independent
joint commission and its rush unilaterally to expedite the process of
establishing the National Assembly and government:
Can
we say that 55 CNRP members of a 120-mandated National Assembly not have cause?
That
the CNRP who also claimed victory not represent “We, the People of Cambodia”?
That,
because the CPP rushed the process of “officialdom” via its controlled National
Election Committee, it’s fait accompli, without review or contest, thus
“constitutional”?
The National Assembly is prima
facie unconstitutional; the government is prima facie unconstitutional.

Theary Seng, you keep reposting the same piece of poor analysis, only in order to get rid of critical comments.
You are a dictator.
I agree that the CIVICUS sign is getting boring now. You don't overload people with the same information. Enough is Enough. Get new news. Miss Theary Seng, I believe you are stubborn. Try to listen to people, not force people to listen to you like a dictator.
LOOK LIKE IT A THORN OR SAD CONGRESS THERE ARE SO SMALL NUMBER OF CPP CRONIES SENATOR AND ISOLATE FROM THE WORLD. THEY ARE SO SAD BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT RECOGNIZE BY IT'S PEOPLE AND INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY. THAT'S WHY AH CHIM YEAP IS FRUSTRATE WITH SAM RAINSY. WHAT A PATHETIC CONGRESS. THIS IS WHAT I CALL BANDIT CONGRESS.
Theary you are a U.S trained lawyer, so what do you know about Cambodian constitution? Can you even read Cambodian? The U.S house of representatives and the Senate never have everyone attend the first meeting, and yet it's still legal. You don't need every single person to attend both houses to legitimize them. Theary, I assume you're a democrat. How soon you did forget how Al Gore lost to George Bush? He lost because of Florida right? Who was the governor of Florida that time? Jeb Bush, the brother of George Bush. Now come to U.S and do something about that election fraud in U.S.
No the rice isn't cook yet,but the law /constitution books has been cooked every time as usual by Cpp and its so called "law makers or shall i say law breakers " You make the law and you
break the law,what is the point to make the law while you don't obey the law? Theary my dear,Cpp ate a spoils uncook rice,they all will be getting sick by spoils uncook rice.We are the people of Cambodia won't recognize their hijack Gov't by thugism Cpp Hanoi's gooks!

Theary don.t know what she doing..just trying to get her ten second of fame..an jendha..
To International donor that provided aid to Cambodia: Please do not renew any aid programs until Cambodia government (CPP) agrees to join with opposition party (CNRP) to form Independent Investigation election fraud.
Over one million names had been removed from the voter lists and about 200,000 names duplication votes.
Around seventy five percent of Cambodian people are believed the election held on July 28, 2013 was not free and fair.
We are talking about the Unconstitutional but not about the Rice.
Rice is a type of food.
We are talking about Supreme Law of Land.
