No Meetings with Workers/Employees during Elections Campaigns
I will travel throughout the country to meet workers/employees, where there are factories and workers/employees. In the means time, there are a few more meetings left before the elections take place. I wish to affirm that in the course of electoral campaigns, I will not have meetings with workers. We will cancel it for a while because every time I am going to this kind of meeting I will hand out something, big or small, especially to those pregnant women. In the electoral campaigns period, giving out stuff like that is not allowed and punishable by law […]
After the elections, I will continue to go around to meet workers. So far I have met not even 600,000 of our workers – registered and non-registered, that I have to see. It is my determination. I will take it seriously to observe progress in industry and handicraft, in line with our industrial development plan for 2015-25, to identify challenges, and to seek for solution […] for instance, electric prices, we are conducting active study on it. It is a major issue that we are working to find a solution in the time to come. I will come out and announce our exact position to ensure electricity and its prices responsive to our people’s demands, but also conducive to development of our industry. Lowering price of electricity to a certain level in industry would contribute to increasing salary of workers/employees […]
War Easy To Make, Hard To Stop
Seeking peace for the country is not an easy job. War, when it is created by a small group of people, will indeed be difficult to stop. To end a war, to liberate the country, and to save the country from the regime of Pol Pot’s genocide, there needs to be sacrifices, life included. Were there no peace, there would not be factories in this area. You young people would have to answer to military conscription, which every country in the world would oblige their people to take. However, at present, you people of the younger generation are lucky. You are free from military conscription and you have time to study. Our workers, female workers/employees included, are benefiting from jobs you are doing. There are now millions of registered and non-registered workers benefiting from increasing higher incomes […]
Voting CPP to Keep Peace, Development, Jobs, and Incomes
Where there is no peace there will be no development. There will be only destructions. You may ask your grandparents and/or parents, if they are still alive, about how each family went through in times of war and the regime of Pol Pot’s genocide. Each and every family could have someone die of war. I hope that you will continue this journey with me to keep peace and development. As I said earlier, it is you who will decide. Whether I can and cannot go on doing this jobs for you and for the country will be up to you. Our country is one of democracy, liberal pluralism, and one that conducts general elections regularly. The best way to keep peace and development, to ensure jobs and incomes, is to vote for the Cambodian People’s Party so that I will become Prime Minister and make sure these will really happen […]
41st Anniversary of Struggle Movement to Overthrow Pol Pot’s Genocide
Over the past nearly 40 years, you could have seen it with your own eyes. If we backtrack to the day that I decided to trade my life to liberate the country, we will reach the 41st anniversary of the day when I led the struggle movement to overthrow the Pol Pot’s genocidal regime. I made this journey with your grandparents and parents to bring about what has happened to you today – to have jobs, to earn incomes, and even to carry out agricultural activities. This year, only at early June, from a bird’s eyes view, there are water everywhere in rice fields. Cultivation season (of rice) has come early since rain has continued to fall since after the Khmer New Year […]
Workers’ Incomes Complement Families’ Agricultural Activities
… Those of you who worked in factories in this area have a better chance to be close to your houses and families. Most of you have had chances to go to sleep at homes and be with your families. Some may also help with other housing keepings and stuff. Your incomes would go one part to helping your parents to use agricultural machines in their cultivations. As of now, only 10% of land preparation is done by animals. In the rainy season, some 98% of land preparation are carried out by machines, only 2% by animals. How could that have happened? One major part of it was because of your incomes and you contributes it to your parents’ pursuits in agricultural activities […]
HM the King Calls Upon His Subjects to Go to Vote
The general elections is drawing near. Yesterday our revered HM the King issued a message to call upon his subjects to go to vote. All 20 political parties calls on their supporters to go to vote. I am waiting to see the strategy of “wining only by staying home” […] they mean to call on people not to go to vote […] that they are against the Royal Government of Hun Sen is one thing. That they are opposing to other political parties […] is one thing. We will see if they are to go against the message of HM the King. If they do, it will be a lèse-majesté. More importantly, if they will do that, it is certain that one day they would not hesitate to take down the Constitutional monarchy, or the throne. Our people may have to think about this […]
We shall keep our eyes on this. If they go against HM the King, what in the world would they not dare to do? They dare to hatch war. So, they dare to take down the throne. We must set our eyes on this and remember that if victory go to them, war creation will be a reality. Now, a threat of war has gone far away because the warmongers are now behind bars for the courts to ensure justice […] we need not only peace but development, process of democracy, and liberal pluralism, which we will carry out on coming 29 July 2018 […] in my capacity as Prime Minister, I am calling on our people to exercise their rights in the coming elections. In my capacity as President of the Cambodian People’s Party, I am calling on the CPP members to go to vote. All nineteen other political parties also appeal to people to go to vote. HM the King stays above every political parties and is affiliated to none of them […]./.
