CPP Lawmaker Says Election Monitor Could Face Legal Action


[ No one likes me...Hmmmm..... ]
By Mech Dara and Colin Meyn - November 7, 2013 The Cambodia Daily

CPP lawmaker Chheang Vun said Wednesday that the National Assembly will take legal action against the Committee for Free and Fair Elections in Cambodia (Comfrel) for causing “chaos” in society by reporting the day before the national election that the indelible voter ink could be easily washed off.

“On [July] 26, the campaign ended and the 27th was a day of calm, but on the 27th, Comfrel committed an act that is not acceptable according to the election law. They made chaos using black ink,” Mr. Vun told reporters at the National Assembly following a ceremony during which Vietnamese Ambassador Ngo Anh Dzung donated 1,000 tons of rice to flood victims in Cambodia.

We will take action according to the law for disseminating untrue information and making chaos in society as this is a serious problem with a huge impact and we need to discuss it with them,” he said, adding that Comfrel would be asked to answer questions before the National Assembly regarding its reports on indelible ink. He did not say when an official compliant would be filed.

In a video released on YouTube on July 27, a Comfrel staff member with an ink-stained finger is shown cleaning his finger using a mystery solution, which Comfrel later revealed was hair straightening liquid.

Comfrel also held a press conference, which was covered widely in both the English- and Khmer- language press, to announce that the ink being used by the National Election Committee (NEC) could be easily washed off, raising concerns over potential double voting.

Mr. Vun also said that both Comfrel and Washington-based National Democratic Institute would be asked to answer questions before the National Assembly about surveys they conducted that predicted that more than a million voters would be disenfranchised due to flaws in official voter rolls, a number that Mr. Vun claimed was heavily inflated.

Koul Panha, executive director of Comfrel, said Wednesday that his NGO had no obligation to answer to the National Assembly, adding that the ruling party seemed to be trying to bully its way toward election credibility.



We suggest they ask the NEC to answer the questions. However, if they need some information—some testimony regarding the NEC’s answers—we are ready to do that,” Mr. Panha said, adding that he encourages any move by the government to review the accuracy of Comfrel’s voter audits.

Maybe our audit has an error, maybe, I don’t know. But verification is the best way to see. The member of parliament working with the CPP should work with NEC to disclose the voter lists used on 28 of July on voting day,” he said.

“There were many errors and irregularities in the management of the election,” he added.

So stupid, all people around the world know the government cheat the election. Why you are scared to open the box and let the independent to count again if you are the real winner. Shame on you...no new strategy at all, just to abuse the people and the law.

The CNRP and the Khmer people must act quickly to overcome the CPP. The Communist CPP is trying to attack any body in every way it can to grab power.

let it be a wake up call! sometimes, good thing or improvement comes out of problematic situation. it is good to go directly to the source of the problem in the first place. part of the so-called reforms in election system is to make improvement in the way people vote and the material used in the voting system. the proper authority should look for ways to make it hard to cheat in national election like this. that is, if they want to improve it and make it better next time. i think the reforms committee should focus on ways to make it better next time. let the law people look for the crooks and punish them in according to the existing law. everyone has specific jobs to do, so let them do their jobs. cambodian politician shouldn't try to be superman and to everything themselves. let the tradesmen and women do their specific jobs they are trained to do. that's the start for changes. people have to demand changes for it to work. goes starts with the constituents to the top leadership, etc... people got to want it for it to work! look at it as business!

i think it is a good move. at least, they all are looking at the problem and try to do something about it to mix it once and for all. i applaud that move.

the last i read, the so-called indelible ink for the election was donated from india. cambodia, be careful with what we accept as donation from other countries! inspect first and test it first, next time! sometimes, the donation is just junks from them and they wanted to give it to cambodia because we lack such material stuff. so be careful and inspect and test first, always! be smart and wise!

even election monitor should sworn in by the organization's ethical code of conduct such as rule and regulation of the entity. people are biased in nature, so use the ethics code of conduct to live and and work by!

“National Assembly will take legal action against the Committee for Free and Fair Elections in Cambodia (Comfrel) for causing “chaos” in society by reporting the day before the national election that the indelible voter ink could be easily washed off.”

Really? So the rational is whoever causing chaos in society should face legal action?

That is an interesting approach. The interesting question is why among all the problems and issues and chaos Cambodia is confronting, Comfrel is the highest priority? That also begs the question why the National Assembly has so much time to deal with peripheral issues such as Comfrel’s statement while CPP already accepted the NEC final verdict and while the nation faces with natural disaster, corruption issues, land crabbing issues, environmental issues, deforestation issues – just to name a few.

CPP should be magnanimous after this messy election. Using the National Assembly to intimidate an NGO could not be more childish and repugnant. CPP lawmaker Chheang Vun should be a shame of this coward action.

sounded like some people forget the point of requesting irregularities investigation? it's not about winning or losing, it's more about justice and stopping corruption and cheating and scandal and bribery, etc... that's what needs investigating. cnrps, give up already, you guys did not win this election, the cpp does. maybe next election and future elections, you guys have more opportunity and chances people change overwhelmingly vote for your cnrp party, especially when they noted that your party is capable, honest, work hard, wise, educated, modernized, effective and competent! the mean time, give it up, you can't win all this election. take your 55 seats and join gov't for the sake of cambodia's prosperity, growth and development, etc. do take this opportunity to show cambodian people from all walks of life that your cnrp party is ready to take over and lead cambodia into the next millenium. wised up and enough already! get to work in cambodia! cambodia need everybody to contribute to its well-being as a nation!

Hun, NEC and CPP are VC using khmers to kill khmers like always. To, this Bayon tv news, I want you to know that, you are a liar. Just look at peoples' face and body language, whenever they hear his speech, they look so sad and grumpy, but when they see Sam, they smile as if they saw god.

Hun Sen you have never been voted by people, you are being installed by VC and so you are a VC infiltrated. Hun Sen, it is time for you to go. This meeting means nothing, because Sam and his team were held as your CPP hostages. So, Sam was in a possition as having no choose. So, in the future, more sure no meeting is behind closed door or else, they will be framed by this crooked regime of the Hun and dynasty.

Hun Sen, you are nothing but a shithead, so piss off. You are no longer our PM, 30 and still want more??????? Hun Sen please try to listen to your own voice, it sounds so terrible. You are lying to yourself, family and to our khmer nation. Please just take your VC wife back to where you came from. We don't need you and your mafia family near our people or our land anymore.

You have never won't the election, you have cheated your way through everytime. Now. it is time for you to go, ok?! Shame on you if you are not, so, fk off now, will you? ARGGGGG

The Cambodian army want to know where is Mr Cheang Von address in Phnom Penh, and what is his car plate number, can any one let him know please ?

Ah Chheang Von. as MPs is delussional. The causes of the porblems is NEC, Comfrel is an observer of the process and when Comfrel caught the criminals CPP & NEC on the act they said and do nothing for months of the complaints formally lodge.

What they could have done was to record and reported it then and there so these guys Ah Chheang Von who can't tell what is black from white is trying hard to divert the public from looking into vote rigging by the CPP through the NEC.

CPP and Chheang Von the"caught" criminal of election rigging is blaming everything and everyone else but not themself. He think CPP is perfect he think what he say the "untruth" is the "truth".

Piss-off recount the votes and make the negotiation and review prob transparent to the public so we can confirm how much of a liar is CPP MPs or NEC is.
