Cambodia has signed an agreement to provide skilled and unskilled workers to Qatar, a country that have suffered a labour shortfalls for many, many years.

The agreement was struck during a visit by Cambodian Minister of Labour and Vocational Training, Mr. Vong Soth, to Qatar on 9th May, 2011. During the meeting, Mr. Vong Soth had signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Qatari Minister of Labour and Employment, Mr. Nasser Bin Abdullah Al-Hamidi. The MoU states that Qatar had agreed to accept workers from Cambodia legally and providing them with medical insurance and protection under Qatari labour laws.

Under the agreement, Cambodian workers will be paid between $300-$3,000 per month depending on the level of their skills.

Qatar had provided Cambodia with some financial aid and during the visit of Qatari prime minister to Cambodia in 2008, many issues, including oil explorations, were high on the agenda of talks.

Cambodia has so far sent hundreds of thousands of its workers to overseas labour markets, namely South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia and some countries in the Middle East.

Brainless Hun Sen,Hanoi's Puppet, does not know how to manage the country resources and to invest in people.

Sending people to work as housemaids and labourers in other countries is that going to give Cambodia a good reputation and dignity?

We are the nation that is blessed with rich natural resources and futile land.How come we can not manage to survive and prosper like our ancestor did for thousand of years?

Under this Hanoi appointed leader, blind man, in eye and vision, Cambodia going to be left with real deep powerty as its policy of selling the country for quick money is still carry on.

See how many Khmer are working in Thailand as slaves for peanuts and got bad teatment ,some had been killed and thrown into the sea;some had been burnt alive; some had been raped and sold as prostitutes?

Where is the nation conscience?Where is our dignity?
Where is our children destiny?
Please tell me!Do they think about these?

Your country is not belong to a bunch or group of people,but to everyone of us.
Government are the nation servants not a group or net work of gangsters that abused her own people and nation interest.Country affairs should be transparent and no citizen is higher or lower than the other in term of civil right and humanity.

If you believe in these free yourself from evil Hun and Hanoi master.Your children's future is in your hands.

Nation suffering is your suffering is our suffering. We are one.
