Migrant workers wait at the Poipet border checkpoint in 2014 before crossing into Thailand. Hong Menea

Fri, 30 September 2016

Moeun Tola, director of labour rights group Central, said yesterday his organisation planned to request the establishment of registration and voting stations in Thailand after meeting with migrant workers earlier this week.

He returned from a trip to Thailand on Wednesday saying he would petition the National Election Committee (NEC) on behalf of migrant workers.

Members from Central met with 1,000 workers during discussions on Sunday and Monday, said Tola, adding that the overwhelming majority had expressed a desire to vote. Despite this, he added, only 3 to 5 percent of the hundreds of thousands of workers in Thailand would likely be able to register.

Voters find it difficult to return to Cambodia to register, he explained, both because their employers in Thailand don’t want them to leave, and because they cannot afford the trip. “Seven hundred thousand workers leaving at once would make the Thai economy collapse,” Tola said.

NEC spokesman Hang Puthea, however, poured water on the idea. “Voter registration must be organised in the commune,” Puthea said. “A Cambodian commune cannot be in Thailand.”

The opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party made a similar request in July, but it was denied on the grounds that voters must register in their home commune. As of August, however, that rule no longer stands.

Tola said he was concerned that the government had not expressed real commitment to the issue, pointing out that Myanmar’s government had set up registration and voter stations in Thailand.

“It depends on political will,” he said. “This is the best option if the government is really committed to not letting individuals lose their right to vote.”

Three children drown in Kampot and Kandal


Fri, 30 September 2016

In what is the latest in a litany of drowning cases across the Kingdom in the past two months, two siblings and a boy drowned in two separate cases on Wednesday.

Kampot district police chief Ngem Vet said 11-year-old Suon Sreyleap and her 7-year-old brother Suon Chamrong drowned while they were swimming unsupervised in the canal next to the cottage where they lived in Kampot province.

“Their mother is a KTV hostess and she stayed up the whole night. She took a nap in the morning and her children went swimming [on their own] and ended up drowning,” Vet said, adding that their bodies were discovered when their mother awoke and jumped into the canal after not being able to locate them.

Separately, in Kandal province’s Khsach Kandal district, 7-year-old Keh Kimlong drowned in the Mekong on the same day.

Khsach Kandal deputy police chief Un Yung said Kimlong had accompanied his father to the river to wash their cows, and then swam on his own while his parent was preoccupied.

“When [the father] tried to look for him, he could not see him. Then he screamed for help from the villagers,” Yung said. “After searching for 30 minutes, they found the boy, but he was already dead.”

The Senate issued a statement yesterday distancing the body’s president, Say Chhum, from its purchase of 63 tonnes of rice from ABC Radio, whose owner Seng Bunveng recently came under fire for calling journalists “thieves”.

The statement was released in response to citizens’ comments on Facebook, and clarified that the rice purchase was made by the Senate’s secretariat and not by Chhum.

Bunveng, who goes by the nickname Aja A, courted controversy when his radio station branded journalists as thieves and extortionists, resulting in a petition being delivered to the Ministry of Interior by angry journalists.

“ABC Company is the supplier of the rice,” the statement reads. “If the owner has a conflict with anybody, it is his matter and not related to the buyer [the Senate].”

The statement also said the buying of the rice was not an endorsement for Aja A’s views, and that the body always remained impartial.

On September 27, ABC Radio’s Facebook page posted a message claiming that Say Chhum, the Senate’s secretariat and staff had purchased the rice from ABC

Security preparations are underway for a visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping, who is scheduled to arrive in Cambodia next month.

A Chinese delegation, including China’s deputy minister of public security, Wang Xiaohong, visited Phnom Penh earlier this week. The group met with high-ranking members of the government and the security services, including Interior Minister Sar Kheng, National Police Commissioner Neth Savoeun, and the capital’s police chief Chuon Sovann.

According to Savoeun’s Facebook page, the parties discussed the upcoming visit, with the Chinese assured that all institutions were ready to cooperate. Savoeun also thanked Deputy Minister Wang for equipment and training, which his ministry had provided in the past.

Cambodia’s state press agency noted that next month’s visit, the date of which has not been released, would be Jinping’s second, following a trip in 2009 when he was vice-president.

Cambodia is increasingly seen as one of Beijing’s closest regional allies. It has received billions of dollars in Chinese aid and loans, while also openly supporting China’s position on the South China Sea dispute – to the annoyance of members of the regional ASEAN bloc.

Kung Phoak, co-founder and president of the Cambodia Institute for Strategic Studies, said the visit would further solidify the countries’ close ties. “Of course this is important because President Xi is the leader of the second-biggest economy in the world, [and] his visit to Cambodia signifies the importance of the relationship between the two countries,” Phoak said.

“The two countries have a lot of cooperation, especially in economics, and also politics and security. In recent years they are also expanding in the areas of cultural exchange and people-to-people relations. I think there’s a lot on the table.”
