The Cambodia Daily reported in today’s edition, that to mark the Chinese New Year celebration “with flair” in Phnom Penh on Monday, two of Samdach Dek Cho Hun Sen’s cronies, Oknha Sok Kong and Oknha Chheung Sopheap (aka Yeay Phu or Grandma Phu) doled out red envelopes stuffed with cash to city cops who gathered at their residences. Sok Kong is the owner of the Sokha Hotel Group and the giant Sokimex company, whereas Yeay Phu is the tycoon owner of the Pheapimex land concession company. However, cops who presented themselves to Yeay Phu’s residence received $25 in their red envelopes, whereas cops who went to Sok Kong’s residence only received a paltry amount of $2.50 (after all, Sok Kong has to be more penny-pinching to own more than Yeay Phu). Touch Naroth, the Phnom Penh police commissioner said that he did not take part in this generous cash dole out and he did not believe his officers would take the generous red envelopes either. Poor chief, little did he know what his officers are doing behind his back … or maybe, he chose to look away, just as the city cops always do.
