Kep Chuktema's development zone selection dicrimination: Vietnamese communities not touched ... Cambodian communities smashed to the ground
«...នេះបានចំជាចៃ បរទេស មែន! ស្រុកខ្មែរ ងើបមិនរួច ពីខ្ញុំគេ មកពីមានចៃធើធំបែបនេះច្រើនណាស់ តោងរោមជើងបរទេស!»
"... What a lice! Cambodia could not get up because of these slaves who are greedy for power by clinging foreigners' hair like a lice!"

A primary school teacher in Pursat province has filed a complaint against district officials, who he alleges discriminated against him after his wife registered as an opposition candidate for the upcoming commune elections.
Chhang Pao, 48, who has been teaching in Phnom Kravanh district’s Thlok Dankor primary school since 1987, told the Post yesterday that on March 13, the chief of the district education department had issued a letter ordering him to move to the district office.
It came a few days after his wife became a candidate with the Sam Rainsy Party.
“They [district officials] could not find any reason to punish me, and they said to me that all teachers in the district are members of the Cambodian People’s Party, so what they did to me is political discrimination,” Chhang Pao said.

“Ultimately, the commune chiefs have to give in to the party.”
As Cambodians consider candidates for local elections later this year, they are used to public service as a low priority. Instead, many local commune councilors use their positions to serve the ruling party, Ou Virak, head of the Cambodian Center for Human Rights, told “Hello VOA” Monday.
“There is still political discrimination at the local administration,” he said, but the severity is less at the local level than in national politics.
Cambodia will hold commune council elections June 3, with national elections slated for July 2013. The commune election process is meant to decentralize power from the central government.

A commune councillor for the opposition Sam Rainsy Party in Banteay Meanchey province’s Mongkol Borei district has claimed commune officials yesterday attempted to confiscate a video CD of an SRP senate election campaign spot he had been watching in his home.
However, officials said they had received complaints from local residents that the councillor was playing the sound from the video on a loudspeaker in the village.
SRP commune councilor in Rahat Teuk commune, 50-year-old Chan Chhean, said that two commune police officials told him yesterday morning that the commune chief and district governor ordered them to confiscate the VCD.
“I did not agree to give it to them, but they forced me to put my thumbprint [on a document] to stop playing this VCD, otherwise, they will arrest me,” he said.
Chan Chhean said that he had watched the video with his family on January 26 and again yesterday, and did not believe it was illegal.
“It is political discrimination,” he said.

Sacrava's Political Cartoon: Pig Painter

Phnom Penh Wednesday, 19 May 2010
“This classification of people is an internal rule of the ruling party.”The Cambodian People’s Party has begun to identify supporters and dissenters of the party nationwide, categorizing them by the amount of support they give in apparent preparation for the next national elections, according to documents and officials.
The CPP has ordered government officials to identify constituents by three levels of support: white, grey and black. Those who are most supportive of the party in different communes are labeled “white;” the least are labeled “black.”
According to a CPP Phnom Penh committee order dated Sept. 14, 2009, party members are asked to list “CPP families,” “other party families,” and “activists of other parties.” Members are also asked to count the number of people in villages and mark them as white, grey or black.
The document orders party members to “do whatever we can do” to change black to grey and grey to white. It orders the deputy and chief of commune councils to strengthen their teams and organize a clear plan to carry out the order.
The order was signed by Krouch Phan, former governor of Phnom Penh’s Dangkao district.
“This classification of people is an internal rule of the ruling party,” Krouch Phan told VOA Khmer on Wednesday, declining to give more detail.
Government spokesman Khieu Kanharith said Wednesday the classification was not for individuals but was for different areas to help campaigning for the upcoming national elections in 2013.
He said the Phnom Penh committee order could have been the work of a lower-ranking member who did not understand the upper directive.
Meanwhile, the CPP is also preparing a youth “quick action” group to counter what it says is negative propaganda in Kampong Thom province.
“We’ve selected the youth reaction group in order to educate the youth to know about morality and to know about the policies of the ruling party,” said Nam Tum, former governor of the province and the current head of the provincial committee for the party. “They will help the ruling party in the national election in 2013.”

Partisan politics continues to clog commune councils

PLAYING POLITICSCommune officials have expressed renewed concern that widespread political discrimination is corroding local politics
Mann Choeun, deputy governor of Phnom Penh, urged commune councilors to abandon partisan politics in the name of development. "If you want to improve your people and your commune, you must stop thinking in a partisan way," he said.
RAMPANT political discrimination within the Kingdom's commune councils is derailing development and causing corruption, commune officials say.
"The commune chief told me there were not enough seats in the office for me to attend important meetings," said Heng Sochhada, second deputy commune chief of Prek Pra commune in Phnom Penh's Meanchey district, describing how she was excluded from key decision-making meetings due to her being a Sam Rainsy Party member.
According to Heng Sochhada, since she was elected during the first commune elections in 2002, the commune chief, who has been in the position since 2002 and is a member of the ruling Cambodian People's Party, has consistently refused to cooperate with her for no reason she can discern other than partisan politics.
"I was not allowed to attend meetings on the commune development plan, on budgeting for development projects, and if I attended they would cut the meetings off early," she said.
"It is unfair, as I was elected so that I could serve and improve the lives of people living in Prek Pra commune," she said.
Airing grievances
At a conference Wednesday at City Hall to assess the achievements over 2008 of all commune councils within the Phnom Penh municipality, some 700 councilors from 76 communes aired their grievances over the operation of commune councils.
According to Sem Chan, a member of the Boeung Trabek commune council in Phnom Penh's Chamkarmon district, political discrimination is eroding responsibility for local development.
He cited the example of the renovation of Road 123 in his area, when he and his constituents asked the commune chief if they could have an open meeting with the contractor before renovation began.
As the road was to be paid for with 70 percent government funds and with 30 percent provided by residents, locals felt they should be involved in the process, he said. But the commune chief refused to have a public meeting.
"Now, this road that cost more than US$300,000 for 160 metres is completely damaged after the people used it for just four-and-a-half years," said Sem Chan, adding that the lack of oversight caused by partisan politics had allowed corruption into the road renovation process.
Another disgruntled commune council member from Phnom Penh's Stung Meanchey commune said that political discrimination had prevented over 200 known opposition supporters in his commune from having proper identification documents - which then prevented them from voting in the July National Assembly elections.
"The people in my commune told me that the police and commune assistants conspired to demand about $20 from each non-CPP-voting person and if they did not pay they would not get identification documents," said Deouk Chhang.

Discrimination against monks in Koh Kong?

A monk living in Sovann Boripoath pagoda, located in Koh Kapik commune, Koh Kong district, Koh Kong province, suffered discrimination and lack of support from the pagoda committee because he is accused of leaning towards the Sam Rainsy Party.
Monk Bou Uy said that, recently, he was ill and a private doctor in the commune took care of him in the pagoda. The cost of the care amounted to 500 Thai Bath (~$14.50).
Because he did not have the money, he asked the pagoda committee to help him pay for the care cost. However, the pagoda committee, whom Monk Bou Uy declined to name, accused him and the deputy abbot of the pagoda of supporting the Sam Rainsy Party because he was seen going too often to recite prayers and give Buddhist sermons at the home of the second commune councilor who happens to be a SRP member.
Monk Bou Uy said: “Because the pagoda committee is party-centric also, they disapprove the monks, they said that I am pro-SRP and they refused to help pay (for the healthcare cost), and they also said that the abbot is also pro-SRP. Monks are neutral, we do not back any political party.”
The deputy-abbot of the Sovann Boripoath pagoda said that he is neutral, and that monks should not be discriminated against or subjected to such accusations.
As a monk, he usually receives alms, or is invited by people, and he said that monks never think about the hosts who invited them as belonging to this or that political party. “He is the chairman of the pagoda committee for several years already … and he pressures me and accuses me and another monk, but when he is in front of me, he never dares say anything.”
Regarding the problem faced by monks in the Sovann Boripoath pagoda, Yun Thorn, the Koh Kapik commune chief, denied that there was any political discrimination at the pagoda. “No one is party-centric, nor do they discriminate against any political party, there’s no such thing.”
Monk Yous Hut Khemacharo, President of the Cambodian Buddhist Foundation and an advisor to the Cambodian Dharma Diplomacy Association, said that the understanding of Buddhist Dharma [in some part of Cambodia] is still too low, this lack of understanding pushes monks and laymen alike to practice the 4 unfairness as stated in Buddhism: “This is related to the education and the practice of Buddhism, they must be pushed to a higher degree (of knowledge), when that happens, all the discrimination, division, bias, which are part of the 4 dharma of unfairness – bias because of love due to self-serving interest; bias because of hate due to anger; bias because of ignorance due to confusion and lack of intelligence; bias because of fear due to fright – will disappear.”
Dr Pung Chiv Kek, Licadho President, said that Monk Bou Uy was sick, therefore the pagoda committee should look at the humanitarian aspect, and it should not discriminate against monks as to whether they are neutral or not, simply because monks cannot refuse any invitation from laymen because monks do not know which political party a host belongs to. Those who accused monks of supporting any political party are wrong, and even if the monks go to vote, it is their individual rights, as stipulated by the constitution.
