Cambodia on Monday accused foreign governments of interfering in its internal politics after the United States voiced strong concern at the expulsion of opposition lawmakers from parliament before elections next month.
All 28 members of parliament from the only two opposition parties were last week stripped of their salaries and status as lawmakers by a committee made up of ruling party members.
The opposition lawmakers were accused of violating parliament's internal rules by leaving their parties to create a new political force to challenge Prime Minister Hun Sen's nearly three decades in power in July 28 elections.
The United States, in a statement also released by the US embassy in Phnom Penh, said Saturday that it was "deeply concerned" by the move, which "starkly contradicts the spirit of a healthy democratic process".
Foreign Minister Hor Namhong expressed his "disappointment" during a meeting with Australia's ambassador Monday at recent comments by some foreign diplomats about the polls, according to ministry spokesman Koy Kuong.
He said Hor Namhong considered the remarks "acts of interference in Cambodia's internal affairs by foreign embassies".
Officials at the parliament -- which is in recess before the polls -- defended the decision to strip the opposition MPs of their status, saying the move was in accordance with its internal rules.
Lawmaker Chheang Von, chairman of parliament's foreign affairs commission, criticised the US comments as "unacceptable".
"Cambodia is a sovereign country, and the parliament was elected by the people... the US orders the Cambodian parliament to do this or that. It is unacceptable," he said.
Hun Sen has led the country since 1985 and his government is regularly accused of suppressing political freedoms and mistreating activists.
His main opponent Sam Rainsy is barred from running in next month's election due to convictions which he contends are politically motivated.
The opposition accused the ruling party Sunday of orchestrating a mass protest against one of its leaders who allegedly described a notorious Khmer Rouge prison as a Vietnamese invention. The opposition said his remarks were doctored.

A good government need a strong opposition to make it looks good. But when it shuts out the opposition in parliament then you know that there is no democracy.

Has the communist or dictatorial regime two party? NEVER
Ah Hor Mam Lhong,
Foreign interference Kanduoy Mer Eung Ah Kantorb !!
Yes,Yuon orchestrated S-21prison after its invasion killed more khmers and put their bones and skuls there and blamed K.R. to cover up Cpp atrocity committed by Yuon and Hun sen its puppet regime.
Ah Hor 5 Hong borned from a Yuon's sperm. His son Ah Hor 5 Bora is a thieft. He gets his salary from Khmer people and he serves his Yuon people. One day Khmer will drag them using the dog collar to face international court.
The whole congress members of CPP
have violated The Cambodian constitution,the supreme law of the land.Those thugs have to face lifetime in jail.Is the internal biger than the supreme law of the land?.Big time constitutional traitors.
i agree with cambodia more than i would agree with the run away opposition group. i don't buy some foreigner interfering with cambodia internal politics because those foreigners don't even know anything about the rule and regulation of the cambodia national assembly, you know. the opposition always run away and try to get their foreign sympathizer to help them when they always violate cambodia rule and regulation. if you don't know or don't study about cambodia, stop jumping to the conclusion that cambodia gov't is violating human rights or whatever, ok. cambodia is not a colony of body, we are an independence country just like yours, ok; and of course, we do have our own law, rule and regulation as well, really! so before you start taking side, make sure you are fair to cambodia by knowing and do your homework on cambodia law, rule and regulation. even our national assembly have rule and regulation too, you know. is yours have rule and regulation? then stop interfering with cambodia internal matter, would you!
Many said S-21 was orchestrated by
Vietnam, I also say so, Kem Sokha said so, many said so, why demonstration is only against Kem Sokha.

Hor Nam Hong and his whole family must go back to Hanoi. Enough is enough.Khmer people does not need the youn origin to work in khmer government. Because who ever has youn blood , has never served the khmer benefit in our khmer land. Not even his heart and soul not for khmer , his tongue can proves that he is youn original.
no khmer politician is allowed to be racist and discriminate against its own citizen, ok! so there! ordinary citizen when say whatever, but politician is unethical to use racism nor discrimination, ok! that's all!
stop making fun of mr. hor nam hong accent. many khmer living overseas have the same accent like those who live in france, america, australia, britain, china, etc, etc, ok. that doesn't make them less khmer than you and i, you know. for your information, that is called discrimination against cambodia citizen who happened to live overseas, really. you and i know that nowadays, cambodia do not allow any form of discrimination of our own citizens! get educated already, really!

Cambodia does not have anything of importance to the US like Panama.
If she does, Hun Sen would stay in prison a long time ago like Manuel Noriega.
Hun Sen has learned from his master the Viet that the American words don’t mean anything.
It is funny that some Vietcong slaves accused Sam Rainsy as ran away politician! May I ask what about AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave? AH HUN SEN himself ran away to Vietnam and came back with 150,000 to 200,000 Vietcong army to occupy Cambodia and sparked the Cambodian civil war for the next 10 years! What do you have to say about this you fucken Vietcong slave? If AH Pol Pot didn't work for Ho Chi Minh and the Vietcong supported for the Khmer Rouge and none of these bullshit the genocide will never happen in Cambodia!
AH HUN SEN himself ran away to Vietnam in fear of Pol Pot! What do you have to say for this? Sam Rainsy ran away to free democratic countries and he will bring back free democratic ideal, life, and liberty to Cambodian people!
Talking about 'interference of internal affair', well the fking VC and Chinese crooks have been interefering in Cambodia for the last decade and so, what is ah Whore Nam Hong talking about? This dickhead blood is made up of those crooks and is continuing to rule to ruin our country and nation until we are finished. This dickhead must go. He must go back to where he came from or die for good, so piss off bloodsucker!
The CPP-vietcong government was not elected by the people...
