Members of parliament from the opposition Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) said they will go ahead with their visit to Khmer-Vietnamese border to examine the location of border post #270 villagers claimed was planted in Cambodian territory despite permission was denied, reports Radio Free Asia.

On 1st June, National Assembly President Heng Samrin denied their request to visit the border area, warning that the the National Assembly will not take any responsibility for their security if they defy the ban.

Mr. Yim Sovan (pictured), spokesman for the SRP, said at least 16 SRP MPs will travel to Anh Chanh village, Chey Chok commune in Borei Cholasa district of Takeo province today, 3rd June, to visit border post#270.

Mr. Leng Peng Long, Secretary of the National Assembly who signed a letter of rejection for the permission, advised the SRP to summon the government to answer questions in the National Assembly rather than taking a confrontational approach.

Mr. Yim Sovan added that the SRP did not need the permission to visit the border area, but it just inform the authority of their planned visit.
