Heng Reaksmey, VOA Khmer | Phnom Penh
“We have received no pressure from any country.” (sic!)
Reversing an earlier decision, Cambodian officials have put the South China Sea on the official agenda for Wednesday, the final day of an Asean summit in Phnom Penh.
Cambodia had left the contentious issue off the agenda, following a visit by Chinese President Hu Jiantao over the weekend. But Asean members Vietnam and the Philippines raised the issue at a meeting of foreign ministers on Monday.
Several Asean members have overlapping maritime and island claims in the South China Sea with China and Taiwan.
Soeu Rat Chavy, secretary of state for the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, told reporters Tuesday the issue was now on the agenda.
“We have received no pressure from any country,” she said. “The Chinese leader and Asean leaders have agreed to do whatever they can to effectively implement the [code] of conduct in the South China Sea to ensure peace, stability and prosperity in the region.”

Hahaha....Hu Jintao tried to shove millions of $$$ down Hun Sen's mouth to keep him quiet about the South Sea, but after Hu has left, Nguyen Tan Dung came to put a knife to Hun Sen's throat to take the $$$ and to make him speak out about the South Sea.
Ah Hun Shit is Yuon's slave.
These are rats. That's BS that CHINESE can claim the sea area. I don't like the viets, but they do have a point. What if the siam decide to claim all the open sea south toward New Zealand?
And the west just look the other way...Rats these leaders are..
Cambodia and Laos are Vietnam's satellites and will remain so, there is no escape.
China is not gonna win this thing because it involves more than just Vietnam, there's Philippines and some other ASEAN countries, U.S, Japan, Korea, India, Russia, all don't want China to expand to control the South Sea. They are willing to arm VN to fend off China.
Hun Sen can do shit for Cambodia but killed it own people. His whole family and CCP member are slave own by Youn VC and the Chinese.
