Rainsy claims ‘big victory’ on demarcation

The Phnom Penh Post


OPPOSITION leader Sam Rainsy has proclaimed a “big victory” for Cambodia, citing court documents he says show the government shares his view that demarcation efforts along the Vietnamese border have been carried out illegally.

In a statement issued Wednesday, the Sam Rainsy Party president repeated his claim that six wooden demarcation posts in Svay Rieng province that he uprooted with local villagers in October – a move that landed him a two-year jail term – were placed inside Cambodian territory.

He added that despite official denials, government documents filed to Phnom Penh Municipal Court as part of its latest case against him acknowledged that the markers were actually “approximately” 516 meters from the legal border.

“The government and I have now reached the same conclusion regarding border delineation in Samrong commune in Svay Rieng province’s Chantrea district,” Sam Rainsy wrote.

The politician, who is currently in self-imposed exile in France, also called for the release of two Cambodian farmers who were jailed for a year
after October’s border incident.

Sam Rainsy is scheduled to appear in court on April 20 to answer to charges that he falsified public documents and spread misinformation in his bid to expose encroachments.

Tith Sothea, a member of the Council of Ministers’ Press Quick Reaction Unit, said Sam Rainsy’s claims lack substance, and that the government will not drop the charges facing him.

“I think the destruction of the border-demarcation markers was illegal and interrupted the speeding of the government’s work,” he said. “If he is a real democratic politician he has to appear in court to confront the government.”

Chuong Choungy, Sam Rainsy’s lawyer, said he would appear in court on his client’s behalf.

“I will request that the court set up the investigative committee comprised of border experts from the government and the SRP, as well as investigative judges that will be able to bring justice for my client,” he said.

    SRP ideaology and its members are all about Cambodia and her people.

    How about CPP? From what we know so far, CPP are working for Yuon's interest. If you're doing anything against Yuon, CPP will crack you down, makes an arrest and books you into jail.

    May the year of Tiger bring DEATH to Ah HUN SEN himself and his entire CPP.


    Long life SRP and Happy New Year to you and our innocent people!

    SRP supporter!

    Ah Tith Sothea, ah plee pler niss veuy. Mr. Sam Rainsy caught the YUONs red handed crossing over to the Cambodia's legal territory, and now you don't even acknowledge it. Ah pler niss veuy. The point of the entire incident is simple, ah pler Tith Sothea. Did ah Yuons plan their border stakes legally or illegally within the Cambodian terrtority? Mr. Sam Rainsy has proven to your face already that yes the YUONS had in fact planted their border stakes within the Cambodian territory. That is the whole point. If the stakes are illegal objects, then they must be removed. What government work are you talking about, ah pler. Without Mr. Sam Rainsy's intervention, you think this border matter will come to light at all???? NO, you and your boss Hun Sen are already slaves to ah YUONs because of your "win-win policy" crap. Mr. Sam Rainsy is never like any of you losers. It is in his blood to defend the territory of Cambodia and to improve the livelihood of the Cambodia's mass. Thank you, Mr. Sam Rainsy's for your continued fighting to protect the remaining areas of the present-day Cambodia. Thank you. We are very blessed and lucky to have you among us Khmer folks.

    Political game or not, Tith Sothea is stupid to fight against a Khmer to defend the thief Yuon when the thief is caught red handed. What a stupid dog.

    Tith Sothea is remembered and there will be a time he will be sought and arrested for his crime against his own race. He can and will be hung in public. Next life he will be born a dog in Hanoi.

    It sounds like Sam Ransy wins to loose. More and more of his members is defecting to CPP:

    Defections: Opposition members join CPP
    Tuesday, 06 April 2010 15:02 Mom Kunthear

    Defections
    More than 200 members of the opposition Sam Rainsy Party, Human Rights Party and Nationalist Party defected to the Cambodian People’s Party in Kratie province over the weekend, Kratie town Governor Che Samat said Monday. He said 227 SRP members and 17 others from the HRP and Nationalist Party – formerly the Norodom Ranariddh Party – voluntarily joined the CPP. “We did not force them or threaten them or give them money in order to make them join with us,” he said. Long Ry, an SRP lawmaker for Kratie province, said, however, that the officials were expelled for misconduct during last year’s provincial council elections. “We found that they received bribes and did not vote for the SRP, so we kicked them out,” he said.

    Dear compatriots,

    Once again,can you refrain yourself from being drifted by your emotion.

    Abusive language is not effective and it will not also benefit cambodians.

    Political colors are only more like your clothes, however the essence of that will count.

    To be civilised and for cambodians interests, please focus on national interests rather than your own.

    Meanwhile, we can improve our ideas and thoughts as if we would rather be cool and collective.

    Thank you for your cooperation, once again.

    Khmer love Khmer is the answer for all reasons. We all need to learn to work together as a "team" regardless of different opinions and concerns which is also based on "brainstorming", it then needs to go through the process of voting. In addition, there is no right or wrong answer as it is all based on "how to improve our quality of lives". There is no need to condemn our own citizens for others to enjoy the benefit of it wrong doing but more toward the decision making into a positive way or outcome . In other words give zero tolerant to bullying for colleague or co-worker by doing this is to avoid losing our professional figures and that it could cost gov't billions of dollars for training them which include time, energy, monies plus human valuable resources in term of knowledge wise. Fro here we need to create a common law to protect "everyone equally" and be focusing on common interest and common goal e.g what do you want to achieve 20-50 years from now. Aust

TRY TO GET A FEW MILLIONS KHMER TO RISE UP AND GO TO HIS HOUSE DEMANDING HIM TO STEP DOWN. DON'T YOU SEE WHAT THE PEOPLE OF THAILAND DID RIGHT NOW. OPEN YOUR EYES. IF YOU WANT A GOOD FUTURE AND A GOOD LEADERSHIP IN CAMBODIA YOU MUST CALL MILLIONS OF CAMBODIAN TO STAND UP RIGHT NOW. WAKE UP KHMERS INSIDE.
