THAILAND'S PREMIER FACES THE MUSIC (2006-Mar-10)          Asia Security Monitor : A military coup may be unavoidable if Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra "clings" to his official post, according to a top Thai military official. General Panlop Pinmanee, Thailand's deputy Internal Security Operations Command (ISOC) chief, has publicly urged the Thai premier to stand down, or risk "uncontrollable tension" that could necessitate a military revolt to "restore national calm," the Bangkok Post reports. Panlop's comments come as tens of thousands of protesters calling for the Prime Minister's resignation have put Thai security forces on high alert.

Honey traps (2006-Mar-01)
         Asia Security Monitor : A Japanese consular official who committed suicide in Shanghai in 2004 was blackmailed by Chinese intelligence agents in an attempt to obtain classified information, the Associated Press reports. According to Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Aso, Chinese operatives arranged an illicit liaison for the diplomat, and then blackmailed him in an effort to obtain secret codes for classified information. The incident prompted Tokyo last month to accuse China of violating the Vienna convention on diplomatic relations that guarantees the inviolability of diplomats. Japan is also planning to take a "decisive action against China" over its clandestine services use of so-called "honey traps," Aso said in comments carried by the Kyodo news agency.

           N.P. : Il y a quelques années à Phnom Penh, le mari de l'ambassadrice d'Australie au Cambodge, un homme d'origine thaïlandaise, a été trouvé mort dans sa résidence diplomatique. On a conclu au suicide. Mais les causes n'ont pas été divulguées.

Drôles de policiers (2006-Fév-16) Enquête sur le meurtre de M. Ieu Koeuss en 1950 Extrait et traduit du livre de M. Samson Fernandez, avocat : Je ne comprends pas pourquoi, alors qu'ordinairement de nombreux agents de la police nationale et ceux de la police municipale étaient en poste devant le siège du Parti démocrate, il n'y en avait aucun au jour de cette réunion. Des bruits disaient que depuis le retour de France de S.E. Ieu Koeuss, le service secret de la police nationale ne l'avait pas lâché d'une semelle. (...) M. Ngèt Hean prenait un cyclopousse pour se rendre de lui-même à l'hôpital Preah Kétomealea.

         S.E. Ieu Koeuss, grièvement blessé, avait été transporté [dehors] et posé à terre même, face au ciel, sur le trottoir devant le siège du Parti démocrate. M. Seng Tip, commissaire du 2e [arrondissement], arrivait alors avec des policiers. Voici sa façon d'examiner les blessures : M. Seng Tip n'entrait pas dans le siège, se tenait debout, les mains sur la hanche, regardait S.E. Ieu Koeuss étendu sans connaissance et disait : "Qu'est-ce que c'est ?" comme s'il ne connaissait pas la victime.

Quelqu'un répondit : "Comme vous l'avez constaté!" Un autre individu demanda à M. Seng Tip de transporter dans son automobile S.E. Ieu Koeuss à l'hôpital. M. Seng Tip refusa, disant : "Non! Je ne veux pas de taches [de sang] dans ma voiture!" Bon Dieu ! Le commissaire de police était ancien élève de l'école supérieure d'éducation physique de Phan Thiet, et refusait de porter secours à un blessé aussi grave ! Qu'il me soit permis d'exprimer ici, publiquement, au nom de la famille de S.E. Ieu Koeuss, le suivant : Merci infiniment à M. Méchard et au capitaine Lesage d'avoir transporté, sans qu'on leur ait supplié, S.E. Ieu Koeuss gravement blessé dans leur Jeep à l'hôpital.

Vietnam Keeps Searching for Remains of Soldiers Killed in Cambodia (2006-Feb-08)
        Khmer Blood : Phnom Penh , Samleng Yuveakchon Khmer in Cambodian , 19 Jan 06 pp 1, 2

        [Report by Li Koy: "Why Are There So Many Vietnamese Bones in Cambodia?"]
         The digging for remains by a group of plainclothed Vietnamese troops all over Cambodia has triggered the suspicion of local and international opinion. During the 1998 elections, armed uniformed Vietnamese troops were seen sailing from Vietnam through the Kaoh Thom pass into Kaoh Thom and Sa'ang districts of Kandal province and from there, they traveled through streams and lakes all over Cambodia, provoking much alarm and anxiety among Cambodians. However, after this became public news, the Cambodian authorities explained that the Vietnamese uniformed and armed troops came to Cambodia to search for the remains of Vietnamese soldiers killed during the war in the 1970s and 1980s. The people of Kaoh Thom and Sa'ang districts were puzzled. They wondered that since 1979 there had been no fighting in these two districts, then why there were bone-digging activities in these districts. However, the Vietnamese immediately explained that these Vietnamese died in the two districts in the war against the US imperialists during the 1970s.
         An Interior Ministry official said that after the people were alarmed by the presence of armed uniformed Vietnamese troops, the Vietnamese immediately changed their tactics by ordering their troops to wear civilian clothes and to leave the army uniforms behind. Security observers said that even if the Hanoi authorities needed to seek the remains of their soldiers, they should never let their troops wear military uniforms and carry arms into Cambodia, for Cambodia is a sovereign country, not a colony of Vietnam. However, if Hanoi was worried about security and safety of the bone-diggers, it should ask for co-operation from the Cambodian government to provide security for these diggers. Maybe Hanoi thought that the ruling Cambodian People's Party was its puppet. Maybe that was the reason why Hanoi violated such an elementary international law.
         The most alarming thing now is that the Vietnamese troops have gone to Kampong Thom to dig for the remains of their comrades, but those who go to Kampong Thom are garbed in civilian clothes. So far, Vietnam has repatriated 347 sets of remains. Hanoi claimed that these bones belonged to Vietnamese soldiers killed during the 1970s and 1980s. Now Hanoi has unearthed another 146 sets of its soldiers' remains in Kampong Thom. Although it has found another 146 sets of remains, Vietnam has still claimed that many more Vietnamese troops had died in Cambodia. At the same time, Chey Saphon, head of the commission for the search of the Vietnamese soldiers' remains, said that he did not know exactly how many Vietnamese had died in Cambodia.
         Diplomats and observers said that this was beyond doubt that Vietnam had committed aggression against Cambodia. Just the search for the Vietnamese soldiers' remains in Cambodia already shows that it was because the Vietnamese had invaded Cambodia that so many Vietnamese soldiers had died in this country.

           N.P. : Vietnameses occupied Cambodia for more than 10 years. They had the time to take their killed back. But they willingly left the bones there and come in to search the remains each time they feel it necessary to recall us they have toppled Pol Pot. On the other hand they caused every difficulty to the Americans searching for their MIAs the Americans call them "les marchands de cadavres"!
           By the way how many Khmer Rouge soldiers have been killed by the Vietnamese? Do their surviving chiefs now in the Cambodian government (Hun Sen included) know their number (and names) and think of looking for their bones?

Tycoons Prepare for New Line of Work in Senate (2006-Feb-01)
         BY YUN SAMEAN , THE CAMBODIA DAILY - Their interests range from casinos to the tobacco trade, and on Jan 22 they broadened their interests once again, when they were elected to the country's highest legislative body, the Senate. Kok An, who imports and distributes 555 brand cigarettes, joined his tycoon peers Ly Yong Phat of Hero King Co Ltd, Mong Reththy of the Mong Reththy Group and Kong Triv of KT Pacific Group Ltd, when he was elected to a Senate seat. Lav Meng Khin, a chairman of land concession giant Pheapimex also landed a Senate seat, as did Men Sarun, the commodity mogul who chairs Men Sarun Import Export Co. On Monday, Kok An said he would not use his new post to promote his business interests. "I will not use my position to protect my property," he said, adding that he plans to use his experience to help bring in more effective laws. "If there is an inappropriate law, I will oppose it but I will oppose it in a suitable way--not too extremely," he said. "I am committed to help the country and the people."

         Government spokesman and Information Minister Khieu Kanharith said having businessmen in the Senate win help introduce better laws to protect business. "All businessmen are not always bad," he said, adding that the tycoons can explain business to other senators. Prince Norodom Chakrapong and former Funcinpec prime minister Ung Huot also assumed seats in the Senate. Ung Huot, who is in his first government position in eight years, said he was committed to decentralization, and to helping empower commune councilors. "We have a real partner, the commune councilors," he said, adding that the Senate can also examine inappropriate laws that have been passed by the National Assembly.
         Kong Korm, acting president of the Sam Rainsy Party and a newly elected senator, said the Senate was of little importance. "Having the Senate or not having it, it's the same." Kong Kom said. "I think they [new senators] don't use the power for the benefit of the people but to protect their own benefits," he said.

A QUAND LE TOUR DE NORODOM SIHANOUK ? (2006-Jan-18)
         Après Ceaucescu, Pinochet, Milosevich, Hissent Habre, à quand le tour de Norodom Sihanouk ? Tôt ou tard les tyrans passent en jugement ! Pourquoi devrons-nous faire traduire Norodom Sihanouk devant un Tribunal pour tous les crimes contre l'humanité ? Pour l'Histoire du Cambodge - Nous, en tant que Khmers, ne pouvons pas oublier la responsabilité et la culpabilité de Sihanouk dans les crimes contre l'humanité qui ont eu lieu dans notre pays, à savoir :

I ) - Sous le régime totalitaire du Sangkum Reastr Niyum, parti unique de Sihanouk :          -   Le massacre des soi-disant Khmers Rouges de Samlaut - cf. discours de Sihanouk dans la province de Kampong Thom en date du 19 Août 1968 : "J'ai déjà fait tuer plus d'un millier de Khmers Rouges et cela ne m'a pas empêché de dormir..."          -  Les exécutions des Khmers Serei ou Khmers Libres : Preap Inn, Chau Bory, Sao Ngoy, Khay Mathura, etc. Sous prétexte de pourparlers, Sihanouk les avait trompés et "on" les avait fait exécuter pour "trahison". Cette "trahison" n'était, en fait, qu'une opposition politique au régime en place (de Sihanouk).          -  Pour se venger de M. Sam Sary, son jeune frère Sam Doul Neth a été exécuté à sa place - cf. "Mémoires d'un Coup d'Etat" de M. Nouth Chhoeurm (p.98).          -  Sans parler des autres crimes dont Kou Roun, homme de mains et de confiance de Sihanouk et Ministre de la Sécurité Nationale, a emporté le secret dans sa tombe...

         Du temps de Sangkum Reastr Niyum de Sihanouk, personne n'avait le droit de penser autrement que Sihanouk sous peine d'être un "traître..."

         II ) - En tant que Chef de l'Etat du Kampuchea Démocratique (Avril 1975-Avril 1976) et ALLIÉ des Khmers Rouges - Co-responsable du génocide qui a causé la mort de plus de 2 millions de Cambodgiens.

RAPPEL DES FAITS :  Après sa "destitution légale" votée par le Parlement Khmer (Assemblée Nationale et Conseil du Royaume), Norodom Sihanouk, par obsession de vengeance, est allé s'allier avec les Khmers Rouges, les Vietcongs et les Nord-Vietnamiens communistes pour venir combattre la République Khmère et son propre peuple.          - cf. Les propos tenus par Sihanouk le 2 Avril 1976 : "La victoire des Khmers Rouges l'avait comblé au-delà de toute imagination... Vive le Kampuchea Démocratique moha aschar..." ("Cambodge Année Zéro" du Père Ponchaud). N'oublions pas que cette "victoire" de Sihanouk a coûté la vie à plus de 2 millions de personnes...!          - cf. Interview accordé à M. Alain Peyrefitte à Pékin (5 Mai 1975) publié dans Paris-Match, Sihanouk disait : "La Reine-Mère (sa propre mère) m'avait "trahi", je l'humilierai... Les bourgeois de P.Penh m'ont "trahi" ainsi que leur pays, je les ferai chasser par la troupe (Khmers rouges) (donc la déportation massive de la population était déjà programmée et minutieusement préparée par Sihanouk)... Quant à Lon Nol, comme il est Khmer et que tous les Khmers sont mes enfants, je le fusillerai avec tendresse..."

         Remarques abominables qui montrent bien le caractère foncièrement cruel, mauvais et vindicatif de Norodom Sihanouk - même sa propre mère n'est pas épargnée !
         DES CRIMES AUSSI GRAVES ET IGNOBLES PEUVENT-ILS ETRE LAISSES SANS JUGEMENT ?
