Sam Rainsy Speaks in Lowell

Sam Rainsy, a Cambodian opposition leader, his wife Tioulong Saumura, and SRP legislators Tok Vanchan speak about an ongoing human-rights abuses in Cambodia.

Rainsy, formerly a member of the Cambodian National Assembly, has most recently been living in self-imposed exile in France. In March, the Cambodian Supreme Court upheld Rainsy's conviction on charges of inciting racial discrimination and uprooting border markings with neighboring Vietnam.

Shortly after the court's ruling, the National Assembly released a statement revoking Rainsy's "rights, privileges and membership as member of parliament."

The conviction upheld by the Supreme Court carries with it a two-year prison sentence and, when combined with an unrelated 10-year sentence for publishing a false map of the border with Vietnam.

Since 2009, Rainsy has maintained he was leading demonstrations on the Cambodian-Vietnamese border to protest what he believes is Vietnamese encroachment on Cambodian land.

Hun sen is not in charge,the Cambodian people are ! the citizens are the boss.It is we who decide wether a leader live or die,wether he become king or a pauper.Cambodia is ruled by the people !! we will have it no other way,fair vote,faire election and fair play for all !!

@KnightxxArrow I think Sam Rainsy is a great kid.He deserve a chance and the kid is highly qualified also.I say Sam Rainsy for president come the next election and i hope you see things my way.The Cambodian people are EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYERS ( EOE ).

[SithSereyPheap1]

@KnightxxArrow Sam Rainsy work for us,he's our servant.All he ever wanted to do is a chance to serve his homeland and compatriots.So why not give the kid a shot at it right ? he seemed easy enough to work with,the world loved him.He get along great with foreigne countries as well as his own native land and people.It's been thirty years since hun sen robbed ranaridh of his first prime minister position.Give Sam Rainsy a few years if not thirty years,let see how well he perform.
