An Anti-government Group Is Calling for an Unrest to Overthrow the Government
AKP Phnom Penh, May 17, 2011 –A certain “pro-democracy” group increasingly has called for a popular unrest in Cambodia to overthrow the Cambodian government and change the political regime of Cambodia, affirmed a senior government official.
“The group has become increasingly virulent these past few weeks, has gone as far as publicly calling for the popular unrest against the royal government, in the path advocated by those few known under title of a local newspapers Khmer Post. But, in fact, the title Khmer Post conceals an anti-government recruitment campaign, called for ខ្មែរផុស (Khmer uprising), with the goal of urging the Cambodian population to: ផុសឡើង, ក្រោកឡើង (uprise, stand up) against the government, the same way did the people in Egypt,” said Mr. Chhang Song, an Adviser to the Royal Government of Cambodia in his email to Information Minister H.E. Khieu Kanharith.
“This group was initially led by MEACH SOVANNARA of Long Beach, who alleges that you and I (Khieu Kanharith and Chhang Song – Note of the Redaction) were his supporters. Sovannara calls himself journalist and, on his radio, gives himself the title of: BANÐIT សាស្ត្រាចារ្យ (Professeur Agrégé – Associate professor – Note of the Redaction),” he said.
Khmer Post has given way to a more violent group, led by a certain SUON SEREY RATHA, a semi-illiterate Cambodian. In reality, this is a group of Suon Serey Ratha by Suon Serey Ratha to support Suon Serey Ratha. On his radio show and in addition to calling for a general unrest against the government, he is calling for a direct attack by the Thais against the Cambodian troops in Preah Vihear. He goes on and legitimizes Thai troops in that area as “Khmer from Surin and Khmer fleeing the repressive Hun Sen regime, all willing to liberate Cambodia from the Vietnamese and change the political regime there.” He praises constantly the merits of Thailand in helping Cambodia.
According to Mr. Chhang Song, a former Information Minister, these groups working against the government share some of the following background:
- All of them are from the US and have no known family links in Cambodia
- All are under-educated and speak & write from bad to mediocre English; yet
- Claim to be journalists, professors and lawyers in US
- Have basic knowledge in computer and photography; and
- Use the media (written newspaper, radio) as their primary means of attack, fund raising and recruitment
- Used to work in construction, restaurant, factory and other manual jobs, and
- Have been bankrupted in their businesses; and usually have lots of debts to other Cambodians in US.
