OMG!!!

Upon learning that Hun Xen would give out an award of $50,000 to anybody who would provide information leading the revelation of those behind alleged fake letters issued by high-ranking CPP officials, a reader wrote:

History reminder for a forgetful reader

មានខ្មែរមួយចំនួន មិនដែលគិតអំពីពួកអាសៀម វាចង់យកដីខ្មែរនោះទេ គឺគិតតែអំពីយួនទៅវិញ។ យួនវាបានជួយក្បាលម៉ែឪវា ពួកវាមិនដែលគិតទេ។ ចុះអាសៀមវាយកដីខ្មែរតាំងពី ឆ្នាំ ១៣៥០មកម្តេចក៏ អាពួកវង្វេងប្រវត្តិសាស្ត្រ វាមិនយកមកនិយាយផង? អាពួកទាំងនេះបើ បានកាន់កាប់ ស្រុកខ្មែរច្បាស់ ជាដូចអាឌុចទៀតហើយ។
A number of Khmer people never thought about Ah Siem wanting Khmer lands at all, they only think about the Yuons taking Khmer lands instead. The Yuons came to save their parent’ heads, they never think about it. How about Ah Siem taking Khmer lands since 1350, why these history-confused people do not talk about them? These people if they govern Cambodia, it will surely be like Ah Duch all over again.

The irate and forgetful reader probably did not follow the news closely enough to notice that:

• In November 2009, Mr. Rong Chhun, President of the Cambodian Independent Teachers’ Association (CITA) organized a protest against the Thai troops presence in Cambodia. His group was prohibited from holding such public protest by the very same puppet regime that was installed by the Yuon invading troops in 1979.

• On July 15, 2010, CITA again organized a day of anger against the Siamese troop invasion of Cambodia in Preah Vihear, again CITA was prevented by cops of Hun Xen’s regime from holding such public protest against the Siamese.

• Now, who is protecting the Siamese interest? The Cambodian people protesting against the Siamese or the puppet regime installed by Hanoi whose leader is a good friend of Thaksin?

Rebuke to KI-Media postings by an anonymous angry reader

You people at KI-Media think you're doing Khmer people a good service by "publishing sensitive information about Cambodia," but I never see you post anything about human rights violations committed by white men who come to sexually exploit Khmer women and children. I'm not talking about the occasional rape and child molestation cases that hit the newswire once in a while. I'm talking an everyday affair where Western men live and work in Cambodia to exploit our women. Just drive around and you'll see them everywhere. Human rights violations can happen in many different ways. The activities of Westerners in Cambodia are some of the most serious abuses. You're only good at pitting Khmers against Khmers. This is what the Westerners are good at, divide and conquer. In fact, I'm sure many in the staff of the white-owned Phnom Penh Post love to exploit our women too. You don't care about Khmer culture being disgraced by Westerners, so don't pretend that you love Cambodia, because you obviously don't through your actions. You don't even live here in Cambodia like the rest of us.

Dear Angry Reader,

We would be more than happy to post actual case of "Western men live and work in Cambodia to exploit our women" as you reported above. We would appreciate it if you would send us your report(s) to kiletters@gmail.com along with journalistic-level backup information. We do not deny that such cases exist, however, as far as we can tell, we have not heard any of them from the so-called "white-owned" press media, nor the pro-government and anti-government "Khmer-owned" media. Nevertheless, we stand to be corrected by you on this issue.

As for KI-Media team members not living in Cambodia - "like the rest of us" as you mentioned it - you may be in for a surprise there. Some of us may be even your next door neighbor, and some are even in the printed news. So please keep looking more closely next time.

Respectfully yours,

KI-Media team

PS: Thank you Reader 4:12AM for the English correction, we still have a lot to learn yet.
