Prime Minister Hun Sen spoke for full 5
hours while opposition leaders can say it all in less than 1 minute:
our mission is to protect Cambodia's soil. Ask the villagers whose land
is stolen from then by force, cut into pieces for land concessions to
cronies of the government. As Cambodians, we all have a mission and duty
to want to know, want to defend and want to settle territorial matters
as a nation. To force civilians to watch the prime minister's speech is
just undemocratic. It is a true reminder of the hall meetings of the
Khmer Rouge. We move forward by offering our people freedom and rights.
The Parliament is space created by the people for their representatives
to keep checks and balance and space for the head of government as well
as MPs to be accountable to the people.
