Re: Enemies of the People

As someone who has expressed an interest in the film ‘Enemies of the People’, I am writing to you to ask if you might willing to help me spread the word about the release of this important Cambodian film.

The film is the product of more than 10 years hard work by inspirational Cambodian journalist Thet Sambath. Sambath has been on a personal quest, because he lost his own family in Cambodia's Killing Fields. The film is his journey to discover not how but why they died. In doing so, he hears and understands for the first time the real story of his country’s tragedy. After years of visits and trust-building, Sambath finally persuades Brother Number Two, Nuon Chea, to admit in detail how he and Pol Pot decided to kill party members whom they considered ‘Enemies of the People’.

I hope you'll agree with the Wall Street Journal, which called the film 'One of the most important films about Cambodia ever made'. I have attached a flyer announcing the DVD release to this email, I would be very grateful if you would circulate the flyer to your network. If you are willing to help hand out flyers or put them on display somewhere prominent for people to pick up I am more than willing to post you printed flyers.


Enemies of the People will be released on the 15th November 2011 as a 2-Disc Special Edition DVD, featuring over 6 hours of extra features and a lavishing illustrated 28-page booklet.

Your help in spreading the word about this important film about Cambodia is much appreciated.

Many thanks and best wishes,

Matthew

Decho Hun Sen, Mr Sam Rainsy asked you to sue him at a French court about your murders of the Khmer people. Why don't you dare to do it as you have done at the Cambodian court?

Being a strong man as well as a Prime Minister of one country, you should not be coward to face the real justice at a French court or International court. Unless, you are the real murderer in Cambodia that is the reason why you fear Mr Sam Rainsy at a real and fair justice court.

Decho Hun Sen, you rubbed the Cambodian people's well being, health care, dignity and sell Cambodia out to Vietnam in a cheap price as long as you can stay in power. Isn't that true, Samdach Decho Hun Sen?

How many Cambodian people's lives have you killed in your lifetime so far? Can you be honest to tell the truth?

As one Prime Minister of one country, you job is to bully your own people for just talking about Paris Peace agreement 1991 and about Vietnam's encroachments into Cambodia's territory. Why?

Samdach Decho Hun Sen, Why are you so scared of the truth? Why are you so scared of Mr Sam Rainsy when he asked you to sue him at a French court? You are a strong man as you claimed on the TV screen?

Samdach Decho Hun Sen, you shouldn't be scared of Mr Sam Rainsy because Mr Sam Rainsy has no weapon of mass destruction as you do. You are the murderer; you must be strong to face Mr Sam Rainsy at a French court as Mr Sam Rainsy has invited you to do so.

Samdach Decho billion dollars Hun Sen, Please face Mr Sam Rainsy as Mr Sam Rainsy has invited you through the world media. You used to win on Mr Sam Rainsy many times in a Cambodian court of justice. There is no reason why you should be worred about...if you have never killed anyone in Cambodia. Isn’t it true, Decho Sen?

The Cambodian people hope to see Samdach Decho Hun Sen has the gut as a leader or a man to sue Mr Sam Rainsy at a French court as Mr Sam Rainsy has invited Samdach Decho many times through Radio and world media.

Be a man Decho Sen! One in your life be a man Decho Sen! Be a man to face Mr Sam Rainsy at France court and international court.

We are personal bodyguards of Samdach Decho would like to see Decho Hun Sen be a man with Mr Sam Rainsy at a French Court. Otherwise, Samdach Decho is not worthy to protect because why do we have to die for protecting a traitor, a murderer, a blood sucker. Isn’t it true, Samdach Decho Hun Sen? Do you agree with that?
