Recently, I had a heated friendly discussion with a new friend saying
that tying the visa suspension to deportee issue is still weak:
YES on visa suspension (and
I gave a concrete example of former MP who's more Hun Sen than Hun Sen
who to this day replays the day his visa was rejected and bemoans the
fact he can't visit the US anymore); the visa suspension should be
directly tied to the deterioration of democracy, as this is already
understood -- rightly or wrongly -- to be the case, so why not make the
direct link as that would be a stronger statement.
Plus, many people, in particularly most Cambodians are very against the
unjust deportation of these individuals more American than Cambodian.
Me very much included, having been very actively, vocally, publicly
against the deportation agreement since 2002 while living in Wash. DC.

Cambodia suspends cooperation with U.S. in finding war remains

Cambodia’s Foreign Affairs Ministry said it would accept deportees from the United States.
PHNOM PENH (Reuters) - Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said on Thursday he was suspending cooperation with the United States to find the remains of Americans killed in the Vietnam War in the latest ratcheting up of tensions between the two countries.
Hun Sen has accused the United States of plotting treason with opposition leader Kem Sokha, an accusation rejected by the U.S. embassy, which has called for the release of the prime minister’s main rival.
“The search cooperation is postponed until a number of issues are resolved between Cambodia and the United States,” Hun Sen said according to pro-government website Fresh News.
Hun Sen said that a total of 80 American soldiers had gone missing in Cambodia during the war in neighboring Vietnam and that half of them had been found.
Hun Sen said the suspension will be lifted after Cambodia-U.S. ties are restored. Washington announced on Wednesday that it would stop issuing some visas after Cambodia refused to accept Cambodian citizens deported from the United States after being convicted of crimes there.
Hun Sen said the policy of deporting them back to Cambodia “break them up as families, as parents and children, and it’s an inhumane (situation) in which some have committed suicide”.
The Vietnam War that ended in 1975 remains an emotive issue in Cambodia.
Hun Sen says the United States has never apologized for its role in bombing his country to try to kill Vietnamese communist guerrillas and should forgive debts built up by a pro-U.S. junta that ruled until it was ousted by the genocidal Khmer Rouge.
On a separate issue, Cambodia’s Foreign Affairs Ministry said it would accept deportees from the United States.
The U.S. Embassy in Phnom Penh declined to comment.

ReplyDeleteDon't let this angry Vietnamese puppet Hun Sen do whatever he wants. Hun Sen is not a Prime Minister of Cambodian, but he is a Vietnamese puppet, a killer (a ghost Ho Chi Minh follower, a friend of Le Duc Tho). Let Duc Tho is a Vietnamese military commander from Hanoi, a real father of Hun Maneth and a former husband of Hun Sun's wife Bun Rany (former named Bunheang).
Hun Sen is a very suspicious Khmer Rouges killer who escaped into Vietnam when he was shot into his one eye during the Killing Fields (1975-1979).
Hun Sen is was installed as a Foreign Minister by the Vietnamese military while Mr. Pen Sovan was a Prime Minister.
Mr. Pen Sovan was arrested and jailed in Hanoi for 10 years because Mr. Sovan refused to take order from the Vietnamese military commanders and leaders from Hanoi to allow the illegal Vietnamese/Yuon immigrants flood into Cambodia and refused to execute Hanoi's 5K plan to kill more than half million of innocent and well-educated Cambodian/Khmer people by pushing them walking the land mines and chop the trees at the border of Cambodia and Thailand.
Hun Sen is a traitor and committed treason because he accepted the order from the Vietnamese military commanders and leaders from Hanoi to execute 5K plans and allowed the illegal Vietnamese immigrants to flood into Cambodia. Also Hun Sen was illegally installed as a Prime Minister of Cambodia which was not recognized by the UN, the West and International Community.
Hun Sen is a traitor and committed treason because he pleased his Vietnamese masters by hurting more Cambodia people until today.
Hun Sen has committed crimes against Humanity and a criminal of all circumstances from the Killing Fields 1975 until today.
Hun Sen must be claimed a criminal by the UN, the West, the innocent of Cambodian people and victims of all kinds of crimes in Cambodia.
Again, please don't let this angry idiot Hun Sen do whatever he wants against the UN, the U.S., Europeans, International donors, well-educated Cambodian people and heroes or patriots.
We need to execute this criminal Hun Sen as soon as possible.
We demand China and Vietnam to stop support this criminal Hun Sen as the second Pol Pot number 2 to create the second Killing Fields in the near future.
We need to be aware of what Hun Sen has been doing in Cambodia to continue to stay power and get away from the serious crimes he has committed in Cambodia and on the world stage.
The UN, European unions leaders, the U.S. officials, International Community, all Cambodian opposition leaders, and all Cambodian people should criticize the China and Vietnam who are the ones who involved the killing of millions of Cambodian people and tried to support the criminal Hun Sen in order to steal the natural resources from Cambodia and do illegal businesses with this criminal Hun Sen and his corrupted CPP officials (lazy clowns).
