Battambang – There’s only three days left for Cambodia to celebrate the 31st anniversary of the escape from the genocidal Democratic Kampuchea (Khmer Rouge) regime which took place on 07 January 1979. In the morning of 04 January 2010, prime minister Hun Xen issued a warning against a group of people who refused to recognize 07 January as the date of the release from Pol Pot’s hands.
During the inauguration of the International Children village building by the SOS organization in Battambang city, Hun Xen indicated that, if there was no 07 January, there would be no 23 October [date of the anniversary of the Paris Peace Agreements on Cambodia] either.
This is not the first time that Hun Xen issued his warning to opposition officials and civil society organizations that are leaning toward the opposition party. In fact Hun Xen and officials from his regime always raised the issue against the criticisms raised by opposition officials in their refusal to recognize 07 January.
Kem Sokha, HRP President, said that 07 January was a victory day, but it was also a day the Yuons invaded Cambodia.
