Opposition leader Sam Rainsy announced that the 26 SRP MPs will boycott the NatAss (National Assembly) meeting until the government guarantees that it will end forced evictions of people from their lands and houses, and that it will reform the members of the National Election Committee (NEC).
Sam Rainsy claimed that if there is no quorum of 120 MPs at its meetings, the NatAss cannot approve the 2012 national budget draft law.
The SRP’s statement which was issued on 14 November indicated that Mr. Sam Rainsy stated that the opposition does not want to see the Cambodian government borrowing large amount of funds from overseas because of its potential economic danger, and that these funds serve as a good opportunity for the ruling CPP party to preserve and expand its powerbase instead.
Sam Rainsy accused the CPP of using the foreign loans for their own corrupt gains and for buying votes.

a coup against democracy?

What Sam Rainsy proposes is a coup against the constitution and parliamentary democracy. It is a political act completely
irresponsible, unnecessary and inefficient.
it is a sabotage of his own political party.

Any MP has the right to boycott the parliament if they don't agree with the government. Anyone who say this act is a coup is wrong. This is their right under the constitution.

Don't just blame SRP for boycott; ask the government the repayment plan and how they will generate revenue to repay those loans. It is irresponsible for the government to borrow without plan how to repay them back. If the government has a plan to repay the loan then I think it is ok to borrow it.

Ah SRP, do u r known that even U.S.A borrow China money? If Hun xen' gov. can't repay, no one will let them borrow. U should spend time helping the flood victims and rebuild the country.
