[…] I have already stated why it is necessary to get you out of there (the Angkor Wat area). (The fact that you had) lived in the area (where there are temples), should we blame Hun Sen for it or should we blame the previous kings who built the temple of Angkor? We cannot blame our ancestors or the former kings and queens who built the temples, including Angkor Wat, which has been listed as a World Heritage Site since 1992, and for which, this year we mark the 30th anniversary of its listing as a World Heritage Site. This inclusion requires compliance with the conditions set by UNECO. We cannot violate those principles. We have to work hard to keep them […]
You, the people who have decided to relocate to (1) the Run Ta Ek new settlement, could see and decide between living in a place that you can develop ownership and living in a place that you cannot develop and attain ownership. This is the choice you have to make. Those who have been willing to leave the Angkor resort and already drawn the residential land lottery can be considered as making a smart choice. In case of need for people to move their settlement out here, the Royal Government has provided the infrastructure and other necessary supports, including the social protection policy, which I will emphasize shortly […]
I will continue (my journey) to Banteay Meanchey province. I have to go visit and provide to rice seeds and food for people whose livelihood have been affected by flood in Battambang, Pursat and Kampong Chhnang. I also want to know if my strength can be up to the task. I am convinced that I could […] (2) it has been said for like six or seven months ago that I was dead. What I am now, according to them, is a fake. Now this fake person is still who he is. Who can be a fake for more than a year? […] those who say that does cause loss of faith (in himself) […] people no longer believe what the person says […] who can imitate the way Hun Sen speaks or the way he solves problems, and more so who would be willing to let a fake prime minister to lead the country for more than a year since when he was considered dead. It never exists. On the other hand, as I went to deliver an intervention speech at the United Nations, would the United Nations have let the ghost speak? […]
(As for this settlement of Run Ta Ek), (3) there are about 200 residential lots left. I would reserve the 200 lots a little while because the families who will come to resettle here will definitely have their children married sooner or later. When it comes to marrying children, they will have to divide the family. When those families have met with required conditions, the newly divided families can allow that reserved land […] I thank the people who fathom and have given their understanding to the issues related to the Angkor Site, which is in the property of humanity and we have to meet the conditions for the management of these areas. We have been doing the same to other temple sites, such as Sambo Prei Kuk, Preah Vihear […] or otherwise we would lose the qualifications to have the support of development partners who contribute to the preservation of ancient temples left by our ancestors for hundreds or thousands of years. This is a necessary situation. We do not need to evacuate people if there are no temples here. And, because of the fact that there are temples here, we beg you to come and live in this new settlement area. We are not moving you to the new areas (without taking care of you). I will prove to you what conditions I have been preparing for your relocation […]
… I would like to clarify the measures that need to be addressed and make it clear to you. Point 1 – transporting you (from your former residences to) here is the responsibility of the 4th Army Division and the 2nd Division, and the preparation of land for housing is the responsibility of the Siem Reap Techo Engineering Corps […]; Secondly, the support to be provided is the same […] I wrote in my e-book – “volunteers coming to live in the Run Ta Ek settlement area and Pak Snaeng will (1) receive Poverty I card and (2) the card will be rated the as those living in the town areas […] I signed the instruction on October 8, 2022 […] I worded it a ten-year valid card, and in the period of 10 years, even though you are out of poverty, the government still continue (to implement this obligation) […] the promise of the previous government, the next government must fulfil. Whether I will continue to be Prime Minister or there will be someone else, we must continue to fulfil the obligation, or if you do not, the people in the area will oppose you […]
Thirdly, concerned institutions must issue a title deed at once. People may need to use it as a collateral in the bank to borrow money. If the title is just a social land concession, they cannot borrow money from the bank […] I confirm that today […] but for the issuance of title deeds, you to move in first so that systematic land registration can proceed […] Fourthly, we must have land ready for those who are going to start new families. I would prove on this matter for the village of Preah Dak – which is an old village, that people living in the area cannot build new roofs […]. Fifthly, I have already confirmed the infrastructural development and they are under construction already […]
Sixthly, I continue my appeal to microfinance as well as banks to provide understanding for people here who may need to ask for loans […]. Seventhly, we do not allow the demolition of pagodas which have already been in the area, but we prohibit the construction of additional temples, churches or shrines that are not necessary and/or unauthorized […] Point 8 – we confirm to the people living in Preah Dak commune, the Royal Government does not move them, […] we do not remove it from the existing administration, but there are two points to follow. The first point – the construction of new buildings must comply with the procedures of the APSARA Authority. The second point related to the problem of the restoration of the Baray reservoir, the Orienting Committee of the Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts, APSARA Authority, and especially the Siem Reap provincial authority, coordinate with the people so that we can let some water in since the area is not home but people’s cultivative land […]
The ninth point is to confirm that the Banteay Srei district hall, which is in an area, must be moved to Run Ta Ek […] and the Angkor Thom district hall must also move to Pak Snaeng […] because we have to deal with what is in the Zone I […] and the ICC will meet in December […]
For this evening meeting, we have invited those from Division 2, Division 3, Military Zone 4 and communes/sangkat councilors, but only those in the CPP. No one from other parties invited because if they are things would not be smooth. Let you wait in that case when I would come to meet at the commune hall. Now for the meeting at my place, I had to call both the army chiefs, and most of the CPP officials […] we have a hard time talking with the opposition […] (4) we are determined to eradicate the extremist ideology of three generations of traitors […] as long as they do not declare abandoning the politics of “where there is you, there will never be me,” to the people, and stopping the policy of overthrowing the government, we have no choice but to get rid of it. The way we do it is easy. We are calling for people to break away from the person, including those close with the boss […]
We already have the law on our side […] and I already said, we are ready to nail them down. (5) Why (do we have to do that)? It was for the happiness of all of us. Should we let one person destroy the peace we have so hard to find? how did we live in the past until we have scored this peace? it was difficult before we scored peace […] why would we let such person destroy it. My goal has never been anything but the happiness and life of the people. I have worked hard all my life, and more than half of my life now, […] now that I am at the age of 70 means I have spent 45 years for the survival and well-being of the people. Our people have lost too much. Do not let go of the hard-won peace […] he is bad to the point that as we are in the democratizing process of registering to vote, leading to next year’s election, he is calling instead for the overthrow of the government through the use of force […]
It would be bizarre if we do not get rid of this obstacle. I only get rid of that one man. I don’t mean getting rid of anyone else. As others split away from the person, I may review them a pardon. (6) They have to break away from that person first. I have the power to sign requesting HM the King’s pardon, but only on the condition that you separate from that person […] whichever political party is involved with it, we will definitely file a lawsuit to dissolve them […] why else the person signed a territorial agreement that it gives rights to indigenous peoples, where behind their signing ceremony postures, there was the flag of Degar. This group is called the Montagnards in Vietnam. A minority wishes to creates a separate state. What the goal would be of giving Khmer land in four provinces for this group. Our country should not be unfortunate anymore. I am declaring that those involved with that person must secede from him […] let him sleep in France. If you do not declare secession, you too stay outside together […]./.
