MANILA, Philippines – The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) on Tuesday said that it would be persistent in summoning the Cambodian envoy and demand an explanation for what it described as “strong accusations” against the Philippines and Vietnam.

“We are going to summon the Cambodian ambassador to ask him to explain what he meant when he stated that the ‘inflexible and non-negotiable position of two countries of ASEAN is dirty politics,’” Raul Hernandez, DFA spokesperson, said in an interview with reporters.

“We are trying to find out the real meanings of these statements because these are rather strong accusations that we are playing dirty politics,” he added.

Hernandez said that about 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, a note verbale was handed to Tan Chanadaravuth, Second Secretary and Consul of the Cambodian Embassy in the Philippines, asking the Cambodian ambassador to explain the details he divulged. He said the meeting lasted for about 30 minutes.

He said that the Cambodian ambassador was summoned Monday and Tuesday but that he was “indisposed” to come.

“We hope to receive a reply but for now he is indisposed but we will keep on summoning him until he is able to come to the Department of Foreign Affairs to explain these accusations,” Hernandez said.

Hernandez was reacting to an article published in the letter to the editor of a local broadsheet (The Philippine Star) authored by Hos Sereythonh, Cambodian ambassador to the Philippines. In his letter entitled Communiqué only through full consensus, Hos accused the Philippines and Vietnam of playing dirty politics in trying to blame the Cambodian Chair “for what essentially was the inflexible and non-negotiable position of the two countries of ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations).”

AFP - The Philippines said Tuesday it had summoned Cambodia's ambassador to explain comments he made accusing it and Vietnam of playing "dirty politics" in trying to solve a maritime row with China.

The move appeared to further deepen divisions within the 10-nation Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), more than two weeks after a ministerial meeting hosted by Cambodia ended in disarray over the sea dispute.

Foreign Department spokesman Raul Hernandez said Cambodian ambassador Hos Sereythonh was asked Tuesday to personally explain his comments, but he failed to turn up claiming he was sick.

"We will continue to summon him until he is able to come," Hernandez said in a statement.

"We want him to explain what he meant when he stated that the 'inflexible and non-negotiable position of two countries of ASEAN is dirty politics'."

The comments were in a letter Hos sent to the editor of the Philippine Star, one of the country's leading newspapers, on Monday.

In the letter, Hos accused the Philippines and Vietnam of working to "sabotage and hijack the joint communique" during the ASEAN meeting.

Vietnam-Cambodia trade reaches $3 bln

PHNOM PENH, 31 July 2012 (Cambodia Herald) - Vietnamese Ambassador Ngo Anh Dzung said Tuesday that two-way trade between Vietnam and Cambodia had reached $3 billion a year.

Dzung also said that Vietnam was now the sixth-biggest investor in Cambodia with cumulative investment of $1.2 billion.

While Cambodian exports to Vietnam have been increasing, he said the trade balance was still in Vietnam's favor.

The ambassador meanwhile appealed to 10 different journalist associations to avoid inaccurate reporting that could adversely affect ties between Cambodia and Vietnam. The appeal followed recent reports about border issues.

On a Skype connection beamed into the Phnom Penh courtyard of the Human Rights Party from France, self-exiled opposition leader Sam Rainsy claimed yesterday that he will return to Cambodia and campaign in the 2013 national elections.

His remarks brought waves of applause from more than 400 people assembled under an open-air tent, though it’s hardly the first time he has made such a pledge.

Leaders and members of the Human Rights and Sam Rainsy parties had come to Phnom Penh to talk about the newly formed union of their two groups, the Democratic Movement for National Rescue.

Rainsy, president of the DMNR, said the US will help pave the way for his return to lead the new party.

Along with opposition lawmaker Mu Sochua and Human Rights Party head Khem Sokha, he is traveling to the US on August 7 to meet with officials and talk about upcoming elections.

[Cambodian] Government fires back on South China Sea

Cambodia has again weighed into the diplomatic clash that ignited after last month’s ASEAN summit, laying blame for a breakdown of talks squarely at the feet of the Philippines and Vietnam in three stinging rebukes of newspaper articles yesterday.

The foreign ministry has grown increasingly sensitive to the barrage of criticism launched its way after ASEAN failed to issue a joint communiqué during the summit in Phnom Penh for the first time in the 10-member bloc’s 45-year history due to disagreements over the South China Sea.

All three responses published on the website of state news service Agence Kampuchea Presse accuse the Philippines and Vietnam of “hijacking” the talks by demanding their bilateral disputes with China over the waters be specifically included in the communiqué.

Cambodia now holds ASEAN’s rotating chairmanship, and ambassador to Thailand You Ay slammed the assertion that China had become “an open patron state of Phnom Penh” in a July 27 editorial published in the Bangkok Post.

“…the allegation that Cambodia ‘shared the draft version of the joint statement with the Chinese, who then vetoed it’ is extremely disparaging and slanderous,” she wrote.

Cambodia’s ambassador in Manila, Hos Sereythonh, accused Erlinda Basilio, an undersecretary at the Philippine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, of “dirty politics”, “story telling” and “inventing reality” in her opinion piece to the The Philippine Star on July 9.

Cambodian villagers speak out against corruption

In Lum Phat district’s Seda commune, the message from villagers attending yesterday’s Cambodian Center for Human Rights’ land forum was clear: We’ve been duped.

The mixed Khmer and ethnic minority villagers said they were coerced into accepting the phenomenally low price of US$150 per hectare of land from the DM Group and other private plantation companies and were forced to thumb-print documents leaving them with effectively no legal recourse – and no land – plunging the semi-nomadic community into even greater poverty and uncertainty.

Kuch Moly, a Funcinpec lawmaker who sat on the three-person panel at the forum alongside Seda commune chief Thom Phain, rebuked villagers for filing complaints when they have already accepted compensation.

Police from the anti-human-trafficking department swooped down on the headquarters of a Korean migrant protection agency in the capital yesterday, detaining nine women they suspected of being involved in human trafficking.

The presence of about 50 young women at the Association for People Protection in Tuol Kork district’s Boeung Kak II commune had police believing young women were being lured from the provinces against their will.

As of last night, however, no charges had been laid.

Investigations would continue, Keo Thea, director of the Phnom Penh municipal anti-human trafficking police said, but it was more likely that many of the women at the agency were willingly having their “faces checked” by two men in their 40s from South Korea – prospective husbands.

Petitions for Mam Sonando release hit embassies

The Association of Democrats claims to have secured more than 45,000 thumbprints for petitions submitted to foreign embassies yesterday demanding the release of their arrested president, Mam Sonando.

Sonando, an outspoken government critic who disseminated his views on-air as director of the Beehive radio station, was arrested on July 15 in connection with a so-called secessionist plot months earlier.

The deputy general director of the Association of Democrats, Khoun Phannavy, said yesterday 46,000 thumbprints had been collected for petitions submitted to embassies including those for the US, France, Japan, Singapore, Germany, Thailand and Australia.

“The reason why we do this is that we found that the president did not do anything wrong. He was not involved in the accusation of being behind an autonomous area,” she said.

Time for Asean to stand together

Tuesday July 31, 2012

Ceritalah by KARIM RASLAN
newsdesk@thestar.com.my

China is claiming more of the South China Sea as its own. Unfortunately, China’s territorial pretensions clash with separate claims by Vietnam, Brunei, Malaysia and the Philippines.

SANSHA City is China’s newest municipality. Extending over two square kilometres and with 613 residents, Sansha City has its own mayor, sea and airport, supermarket, as well as a People’s Liberation Army (PLA) garrison.
Established on the Yongxing or “Woody” Island in the Paracel Islands of the South China Sea, the municipality represents a bold assertion of Chinese control.
Sadly in the face of such brute determination, Asean has merely whimpered.
Indeed, earlier this month at the normally-staid Asean Foreign Ministers’ Meeting in Phnom Penh, the grouping revealed its ineffectiveness and lack of unity in the face of high-level lobbying from Chinese and American officials when the association failed to produce a joint communique at the conclusion of the meeting.

International organisations request the Cambodian government to release Mam Sonando

Three organisations, Article 19, FORUM-ASIA and SEAPA, have written to PM Hun Sen to protest against the arrest of Mam Sonando and request for the his immediate release.

Update of news of Vietnamese authority defrocking an abbot of Khmer Krom pagoda

The Vietnamese ultimatum ended on 31 July for Ven. Thach Thoeun, the abbot of Wat Doeum Ampil pagoda, to voluntarily leave the monkhood or will be forcibly defrocked. At this moment, there is no sign that the Vietnamese authority had implemented their threat yet. However, a source said he has been informed that about 100 Vietnamese police had been sent to Wat Serey Ta Sek pagoda, but he said he only saw abot 2-3 policemen entering the pagoda.

The same source said that the Vietnamese authority has extended its ultimatum to tomorrow for Abbot Thach Thoeun to voluntarily leave the monkhood. If he failed to leave the monkhood, the authority will forcibly defrock him.

The Greatness of ancient Khmer Kings Inspired the Heroism of Present Khmer Generation

Re: A culture of impunity: Hun Sen's relatives are above the laws

By True Khmer

Most visitors described Angkor Wat, as a majestic and an astounding temple. Visitors could feel the senses of greatness and sacredness, when they visit it on the actual site.

It’s a mind blowing complex. If you could imagine yourself as King Jayavarman VII, who responsible for all of Angkor project [Editor's note: Angkor Wat was built by King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century]. Imagine to the time, a few months before Angkor Wat was built, imagine to the moment he was standing there on his very first day on the actual site, where he decided to build Angkor Wat . That site must have been filled with tall trees and grasses everywhere, and there was not a single stone that could be dug out or cut to shapes or to be carved nearby. All of the stones that were used to build Angkor Wat were mostly cut out from hundreds of kilometers away deep inside Thailand, in 12th century it used to be a part of our Khmer kingdom, and transported them by roads [In the 12th century, Thailand did not exist yet. Thailand or Siam only came into being in 1296]. What was it behind our king’s mind to set out to achieve something that human race had never done to such a scale before? Mind you, there were no aid from China, America or Vietnam. They did it all by themselves and they made us proud to be Khmer nation. Even India, a country that got a huge population, thousand times than us and whose architectures we copied, has wondered about our achievements as a Khmer nation.

DFA to summon Cambodian envoy [Another Cambodian undiplomatic diplomat summoned by the Philippines' Department of Foreign Affairs]

By Pia Lee-Brago

The Philippine Star,

Updated July 31, 2012

MANILA, Philippines - The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) will summon Cambodia’s top diplomat in the Philippines and ask him to explain his accusation that “dirty politics” was behind the “inflexible and non-negotiable” position of the Philippines and Vietnam on the inclusion of the West Philippine Sea dispute with China in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) agenda in its 45th ministerial meeting recently.

Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario said yesterday DFA Undersecretary for Policy Erlinda Basilio is set to hand a note verbale today to Ambassador Hos Sereythonh to protest the allegations he made in his letter-to-the-editor published in The STAR. The Philippines and Vietnam had vigorously pushed for a common ASEAN stand on China’s incursions in the West Philippine Sea.

“He is being summoned this afternoon and be presented a note verbale,” Del Rosario said.

Basilio said the ambassador was originally summoned to appear yesterday but begged off for health reasons.

The DFA defended Basilio from Hos’ accusation that she had tried to manipulate, distort and exaggerate developments in the West Philippine Sea involving China in order to make her case.

Hos had also claimed that Basilio’s article “What happened in Phnom Penh?” represented the country’s official position.

DFA spokesman Raul Hernandez said Basilio is “a professional diplomat with an unblemished record of nearly 50 years of service to the country.”

“Her statements were objective, factual and true. More importantly, Undersecretary Basilio was present in all the meetings in Phnom Penh. The Cambodian ambassador was not,” Hernandez told The STAR.

Ambassador, Kingdom of Cambodia to the Republic of the Philippines

The Philippine Star

Updated July 30, 2012

I wish to respond to an article written by Erlinda Basilio, Undersecretary, Department of Foreign Affairs of the Philippines, published in your newspaper, on 19 July 2012, under the title: “What happened in Phnom Penh?” as follows:

The description and explanation of “What happened in Phnom Penh?” by Erlinda Basilio clearly represented the official position of the Philippines, and therefore just one view among the ASEAN Member-States. The format of this description and explanation is between fiction and fact, which Erlinda Basilio has tried to manipulate, distort and exaggerate in order to make her case. After having carefully reviewed what she has termed “fictions” and “facts” all readers may be convinced of her story telling. Below is what I would like to clarify between fictions and facts in order to ensure that all of your readers have a better understanding of what actually transpired in Phnom Penh during the 45th ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting (AMM) and other ASEAN-related meetings.

Mark Harmon (R), a then-prosecutor at the International War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague in 2000. Cambodia's UN-backed war crimes court on Monday said it had appointed Harmon to probe two new Khmer Rouge cases strongly opposed by the government, after two predecessors resigned in protest

Phnom Penh (AFP) - Cambodia's UN-backed war crimes court on Monday said it had appointed a US judge to probe two new Khmer Rouge cases strongly opposed by the government, after two predecessors resigned in protest.

Cambodia has approved the UN decision to hire Mark Harmon, the court said in a statement, in stark contrast to the previous judge who held the role but was never recognised by Phnom Penh.

Harmon is a former US federal prosecutor and also served as a senior prosecutor at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague for 17 years.

He will be the third foreign judge in less than a year to attempt to investigate two politically sensitive new cases linked to the brutal 1975-1979 regime, when up to two million people died.

Mam Sonando, the imprisoned Beehive Radio director and president of the Association of Democrats, made an appeal on Friday for international intervention in securing his release from Prey Sar prison, an NGO official said.

Cambodian Center for Human Rights President Ou Virak, who visited Sonando at Prey Sar, said that Sonando had asked him to seek international advocates, saying that the radio broadcast he suspects landed him in jail was simply an act of independent journalism.

“He still maintained that he was not guilty of the government’s allegations,” Virak said. “He told me not to turn this into a political thing, because it’s just a case of him being a news reporter.”

Virak added that Sonando suspects his imprisonment was related to his coverage of a June 22 complaint filed with the International Criminal Court by the Khmer People Power Movement accusing the Cambodian government of crimes against humanity.

The reasons Khmer Krom Federation wanted to become a member of the UN Economic and Social Council

1. Khmer Kampuchea Krom Federation wanted to become a member of the UN Economic and Social Council because this council is responsible for the distribution of UN economic, social, humanitarian and cultural aid to member nation.

2. KKF failed in its bid to become a member because 27 nations voted against it because of Vietnam's objections. 14 members supported the KKF's bid and 10 members abstained.

3. American and Irish delegates slammed those who supported Vietnam's opposition to KKF's bid.

4. Vo Van Ai, chairman of Vietnam Committee on Human Rights=VCHR, also slammed those countries that supported Vietnam's lobby.

5. Thach Ngoc Thach, president of KKF, said the reason KKF failed in its bid was because Vietnam lobbied those countries that KKF is a racist organisation that used the term "Yuon" to refer to the Vietnamese people. Please read the definition of the word "Yuon" here.

PHNOM PENH, 30 July 2012 (Cambodia Herald) - Exiled opposition leader Sam Rainsy said he and Human Rights Party leader Kim Sokha would leave for the United States, Europe and Japan on Tuesday.

He said the two parties, which have announced plans to merge ahead of next year's general elections, would seek foreign support for restructuring the National Election Committee.

During a video conference at the Human Rights Party headquarters Monday, Sam Rainsy said Kim Sokha would be accompanied by Sam Rainsy Party lawmaker Mu Sochua.

The opposition leaders will first visit the United States followed by several European countries and Japan, he said.

Cabinet Minister Sok An is speaking to reporters after meeting with Thai Senate delegations

PHNOM PENH, 30 July 2012 (Cambodia Herald) - Cabinet Minister Sok An met Friday with a Thai delegation led by Suradet Jiratiticharoen, chairman of the Energy Committee of the Thai Senate, to discuss overlapping maritime claims.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Sok An said he advised the delegation of Cambodia’s position in finding a formula acceptable to both sides to start joint exploitation of oil and gas.

"We want justice for a rapid solution," he said. "An American company is exploring for petroleum in our sea, so we will get petroleum soon."

Members of the newest political party in town are attending a meet-and-greet session in Phnom Penh today.

The Democratic Movement for National Rescue, a hybrid of the Sam Rainsy and Human Rights parties, has invited its provincial leaders for a gathering at HRP headquarters.

The purpose is to “be aquainted with each other and strengthen cooperation”.

SRP spokesman Yim Sovann and HRP spokesman Pol Ham told the Post yesterday that the event will foster dialogue between commune chiefs from both parties now under the same tent.

Olympic glory for martial arts star

Monday, 30 July 2012

By Dan Riley

Phnom Penh Post

The Cambodian delegation proudly played their part in the Opening Ceremony of the London Olympic Games on Friday, none more so than the Kingdom’s first female flag-bearer, Sorn Davin.

The 20-year-old taekwondo star calmly and confidently carried her country’s flag around the track during the parade of nations, a memory she will cherish for life.

“I feel so happy to be at the Olympics and carry the flag,” Davin told the Post yesterday. “I think it is great that Cambodian athletes have the chance to compete in these Games.”

Despite a few nerves, the martial artist seemed to revel in her position at the head of the contingent, ending Cambodia’s chain of male flag-bearers from all seven of their previous Games.

Davin noted her favourite moment of the ceremony was the spectacular and ingenious lighting of the Olympic Cauldron by seven young athletes chosen by British Olympic legends. The 204 metal petals, representing each of the 204 National Olympic Committees, that rose together to form one massive flame was one of the best kept secrets from the public. ]

“It was a really smart idea,” added Davin.

The Court of Appeal will decide this week whether to restore Sam Rainsy Party lawmaker Mu Sochua’s parliamentary immunity, which she was stripped of amid a defamation row with Prime Minister Hun Sen in 2009.

Sochua told the Post yesterday she hopes the case, due to be heard on Friday, will clear her name as she focuses on next year’s national election with the newly formed Cambodian Democratic Movement for National Rescue party.

“It’s my full right as a member of parliament to have that immunity,” she said.

Sochua tried – unsuccessfully – to sue Hun Sen in 2009, alleging he made insulting references to her during a speech in Kampot province.

The total number of victims of mines and unexploded ordnance in the first half of the year decreased by nine compared with the same period in 2011, a new report from the Cambodia Mine Victims Information System shows.

According to CMVIS’s July 2012 report, that there have been 104 cases of death or injury caused by mines and UXO in the year’s first six months, with 22 dead and 83 injured.

“In the same period in 2011, there were 113 victims, so comparing the first six months of 2011 and 2012, the number of victims decreased by about 8 per cent,” CMVIS project manager Chhiv Lim said yesterday.

He added that in all of 2011, 211 people were injured by mines and UXO, with 43 killed and 169 wounded.

No plan to end Royal Palace road block [The road was closed because the noise disturbed the king]

No one batted an eye when the barriers went up ahead of the recent ASEAN Foreign Ministers Meeting, but weeks later, residents are scratching their heads as to why they’re still being forced to detour around a nearly kilometer-long stretch of Sothearos Boulevard that runs in front of the Royal Palace.

The answer, it turns out, is simple: the king is not a fan of the noise.

Heng Chantheary, director of Phnom Penh’s municipal traffic office, told the Post yesterday that the closure of the road was made following a proposal paper from deputy prime minister and Royal Palace minister Kong Sam Ol.

“In the proposal, Kong Sam Ol gave the explanation about the closure of road, that the noise pollution from the vehicles at day and night causes disturbance for the king,” he said.

A new boutique hotel created by a Belgian antique dealer and named The Governor’s House opened earlier this month on Mao Tse Tung Boulevard next to the passport office at the corner of Norodom Boulevard.

Founder and CEO Alain Garnier shipped in two containers full of European antiques to lend old world resonance to the 10-room boutique hotel. His family, of Brugge, Belgium, has been in the antique business for seven generations since 1874.

Garnier has been a primary supplier of antiques to lend to the décor of Ralph Lauren outlets worldwide, to create the right atmosphere at the high-end shops in places like New York, Chicago, London and Paris.

Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister Sok An has reiterated the country's willingness to discuss an overlapping claims dispute with Thailand on a potentially oil-rich area in the Gulf of Thailand.

After meeting with a Thai delegation on Friday, Sok An told reporters at the Council of Ministers that the Cambodia was committed to speeding up talks on joint exploration of the field.

“We are discussing today with our Thai counterparts [and] informing them that what we have been negotiating for more than 10 years for a formula which is acceptable to both for oil and gas in the overlapping site,” he said, after meeting with Thai senator and PTT representative Suradet Jiratiticharoen.

City&Country: Potential in Cambodia’s real estate market

By Lam Jian Wyn

The Edge Malaysia

Among the countries in Asean, Cambodia could be seen as a laggard. In recent times, even Myanmar has garnered more headlines with its slew of reforms and Aung San Suu Kyi’s formal entry into the country’s politics. However, things are changing and Cambodia — which only three decades ago was ravaged by the tragedy of the Killing Fields — is now seen as part of the nascent emergence of the Indochina economies.

Malaysian banks like Public Bank Bhd, Malayan Banking Bhd (Maybank) and CIMB Bank have been making inroads into Cambodia. However, the same cannot be said of our property developers, who are conspicuous in their absence from the country’s property hotspots. The only Malaysian developer with a significant presence there is Sunway Bhd, which tied up with Cambodia’s Canadia Bank to develop Sunway Toul Kork City in Phnom Penh, a gated and guarded development with 142 two-storey villas.

Thitinan vs Cambodian Ambassador [So Ambassador You Ay went to Kasit School of Diplomacy rather than Geneva School of Diplomacy?]

By Bangkok Pundit

Jul 30, 2012

Thitinan had an op-ed on Friday in the Bangkok Post entitled “China, US widen Asean rifts”. The Cambodian Ambassador responds in a letter to the editor in the Bangkok Post. BP has excerpted some of the choice insults:

I wish to clear up some points of misperception written by Thitinan Pongsudhirak in the opinion section of the Bangkok Post on July 27 entitled “Asean rifts widen as China, US rivalry grows”.
First, those who said the Peace Palace was ”funded and adorned by Chinese arts” are simply ignorant people.
…
Second, the assertion that China has become an ”open patron state of Phnom Penh” with more than US$10 billion (310 billion baht) in aid and investment is purely insulting.…
Third, the allegation that Cambodia ”shared the draft version of the joint statement with the Chinese, who then vetoed it” is extremely disparaging and slanderous. Those who make such scathing remarks against Cambodia have no other intention than to defame Cambodia’s credibility.

CAMBODIA: Continued disruption of community empowerment activities organized by human rights groups

Phnom Penh, 27 July 2012 -- The Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association (ADHOC) and the Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) condemn the disruption of a training session on land rights jointly organized in Rattanakiri province this morning. ADHOC and CCHR call on all public authorities to put an end to intimidation of human rights workers and to comply with Cambodia’s obligations by upholding citizens’ rights to free expression and assembly.

At 8:30am on 27 July, as villagers gathered in a house in Patang village, Patang commune, Lumphat district, three commune police officers, one provincial police officer, the Village Chief, the Commune Chief and the Deputy Commune Chief knocked on the door and demanded that the meeting be discontinued. They argued that they received orders from provincial authorities and that the meeting organizers failed to satisfy notification requirements.

Who is Responsible for Cambodia’s Killing Fields?

By Nick Gier,

New West Unfiltered

23rd April, 2010

With the 35th anniversary of the fall of Saigon coming up on April 30, most of us forget that the Cambodian capital fell to the Communists the same year on April 17. Led by Pol Pot and his henchmen, the Khmer Rouge launched an insane campaign of retribution that led to the death of about 2 million people.

In 1968 the Khmer Rouge numbered only a few hundred comrades, so what made it possible for the most extreme element of the Cambodia left to come to power?

Norodom Sihanouk, now the beloved “King-Father of Cambodia,” right-wing leader Lon Nol, the North Vietnamese, Communist China, and Richard Nixon must all share in the blame.

In March 1945 Sihanouk declared Cambodia’s independence, but the French, with U.S. support, reclaimed its colonial possessions in Indochina. While Ho Chi Minh went to war with the French, Sihanouk remained staunchly anti-Communist and the French allowed him retain his throne.

THAILAND - Former premier Somchai Wongsawat's family plans to hold an extravagant wedding party for daughter Chayapa, who will tie the knot with a son of Cambodian MP Sieng Nam, who is a close friend of Cambodian premier Hun Sen.

Chayapa's mother Yaowapa is a younger sister of fugitive ex-premier Thaksin Shinawatra, who may also attend the wedding ceremony, which will take place some time next year, according to people close to the Wongsawat family. Chayapa has reportedly known the son of Sieng Nam for some time. The Cambodian MP is also an acquaintance of Thaksin.
