This pagoda is controlled by Khmer Krom monks and Ven. Yoeung Sen is a Khmer Krom. Maybe the pamphlets were left there by government agents in order to put the blame on the Khmer Krom monks so they can be persecuted, prosecuted and sent back to Vietnam?

or maybe not? It seems you're the kind that have wild imagination that everyone is against you and want to take you out? Do you feel paranoid like that? Insecured? Do you have any friends? I think a person like you has a trust problem and this if not right the way would ruin any relationship you'd have with anyone.
That's Hun Sen. He is so paranoid that he thinks everyone is plotting against him. The time will come when he no longer trust anyone, not even his children and his wife/wives.
These pamphlets, even if they are real, are harmless. They are just expressions of opposition by people who are unhappy with Mr. Hun Sen's leadership. In the West, no one cares about such paphlets, only paranoid dictators like Hun Sen cares.
