To All Cambodians both inside and outside of the country
Subject: Calling all Cambodians both inside and outside the country to write a petition asking the UN to help resolve through the agreements of Paris Peace Accords the violation of Cambodia sovereignty.
Based on the subject above, KPCF believes that Cambodia led by Mr. Hun Sen is seriously violating the 23 October 1991 Paris Peace Accords.
1- The unilateral non-recognition of the Paris Peace Accords by Mr. Hun Sen, whereas the accords were signed by 4 parties to provide peace and freedom rights to Cambodia, under the supervision of 19 signatory counties and under the co-presidency of Indonesia and France. Among the signatory countries were Thailand and Vietnam.
2- The violation of Cambodia sovereignty by neighboring countries who were signatories of the Paris Peace Accords. These counties included Thailand – the fomenter of the dispute in the Preah Vihear area – and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam – which sent in 50,000 troops to Cambodia prior and following the 15 October 2008 incident, troops that are hidden by the Cambodian People Party (CPP) and that are denied by Mr. Hun Sen.
KPCF believes that the unilateral non-recognition of the Paris Peace Accords by Mr. Hun Sen led to the loss of Cambodia sovereignty.
KPCF hopes that all Cambodians who were born in Cambodia and who are of Cambodian origin, will ensure that this endeavor is pushed forward, as this is their duty as Khmer.
Please accept my highest respect.
