Interior Ministry Says Sokha Trying to Topple Gov’t

Interior Ministry Says Sokha Trying to Topple Gov’t
 
The Cambodia Daily | March 15, 2014
 
The Ministry of Interior on Friday accused CNRP Vice President Kem Sokha of trying to topple Prime Minister Hun Sen’s government, posting on its website excerpts of speeches the opposition leader has given abroad as supposed evidence of his plot.

The website posting, which appears in both Khmer and Eng­lish, provides written samples from speeches Mr. Sokha reportedly gave in Australia last Nov­ember and in the U.S. in December. 

The ministry editorialized in the post that Mr. Sokha had “boasted without shame of the national conscience” that he had received input from professors in the U.S. and Canada, and the U.S. government, “in formulating a strategy in order to change the tyrant leader in Cambodia.”

“Moreover, Mr. Kem Sokha revealed important mysteries about the support from overseas in the cause of toppling the Royal Gov­ernment of Cambodia by asserting that ‘the government of the U.S. invited me to the U.S. before any others,’” the article continues.

“Furthermore, Mr. Kem Sokha finally revealed the money re­ceived from abroad to topple the government” by saying that he gave $50,000 donated by Ameri­can supporters to Beehive Radio owner Mam Sonando “to set up a stronger radio and broadcast my voice everyday,” the post, which is not signed, maintains.
