Sok Kong's Sokimex in line for big rewards from Hun Sen regime Sok Kong(a Vietnamese ), the owner of Sokimex, a crony of Hun Sen Sokimex gas station in Cambodia (Photo: The Phnom Penh Post) SOK KONG SAYS HE IS A VIETNAMESE , CAN A VIETNAMESE OWN ALL THIS IN CAMBODIA ? People in Phnom Penh say it's not what Hun Sen said but what this guy did to Cambodia. Hun Sen is the prime minister to the outside but inside government houses, he is seen so incapable to even giving marching orders to others without approval from this guy. Who's this guy? His name is Sok An, a Viet descent, the current deputy prime minister for Cambodia and chairman of the Cambodian National Petroleum Authority (CNPA). He has more authorities and unquestionable power than all ministries combined. To most Cambodian government senior officials he is the storm and thunder maker. Like many of his peers in the in the Cambodian Peoples' Party (CPP), under Hanoi given alias, Sok An, began his career as a bureaucrat during Vietnam's occupation in the early 1980s and rose to prominence alongside Prime Minister Hun Sen. An astute political operator, he remained by Hun Sen's side throughout the CPP's ruthless consolidation of power and is now one of the prime minister's closest allies. Their relationship was recently strengthened through the arranged marriage of Sok An's son Sok Puthyvuth to Hun Sen's daughter Hun Mali. Global Witness has written about Sok An previously in his capacity as co-signatory on many of the original agreements for logging concessionaires in Cambodia.These concession agreements formed the basis of the disastrous destruction of forests which followed, at great cost to Cambodia's environment and little benefit to Cambodia's economy. As the regime's second-in-command, Sok An holds a number of other important governmental positions, so many in fact that he has been likened to a many-armed Hindu god, due to his tendency to have a hand in everything. It came as little surprise that, when the CNPA was established in 1998, Sok An was elected as its chairman. Since then he has presided over all contracts awarded to oil companies, acting as the point person for potential investors. One cartoonist's view of the many-armed Sok An holding many key positions: -Permanent Vice Chairman of the Supreme Council for State Reform, -Chairman of the Council for Administrative Reform, -Chairman of the National Tourism Authority, -Vice Chairman of the Centralist Democratic Institute (CDI), -Vice Chairman the Asia Pacific Institute; -Chief of the Apasara Authority, -Chief of the National Land Dispute Authority, -Chief of the Cambodia Training Board, -Chief of the Royal Academy, -Chief of the Khmer Rouge Tribunal, -Member of the Council of Royal Administration and Chief of the State Investment Board on Rubber Enterprise. In his spare time he also finds time to chair the Cambodian National Scout Association and run his private cock fighting sport arenas and money bidding operation.This is the root of corruption that is up close and too personal to Hun Sen. Although with the laws passed and implemented, as long as Sok An remains with too much power in hands, Hun Sen will have a hard time to wrestle him down. Also people have already lost patience with Hun Sen. So only time will tell who will be the next person to bump Hun Sen off the prime minister seat. The Karma wheel turns in the same mannor and direction as Hun Sen has done to his friends and predecessors.

WHAT RIGHTS DO THESE VIETNAMESE INVADERS HAVE TO CONTINUE TO REMAIN IN THE COUNTRY AS MASTERS OF THE LAND? Bury From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Supporting Cambodia Date: Tue, 19 May 2009 05:05:14 -0500 Thanx Don for your experience. The NGO's I was referring to were the one's talked about by Dr. Beat Richner who deals a weekly scathing tounge lashing on the "western experts and the institutions they represent" UNICEF etc. I've attended the weekly Saturday evening events at his Bopha childrens hospital in Siem Reap on several occasions. Richner gets upset that the very same people who tell him that a proper diagnosis system is too expensive for Cambodian children just happen to stay next door at the $300.00/night Novotel golf and country estate. Granted these are the bigshots of their respective organizations but they are funded by people like me. I like your idea of going further out into the coutryside. Anymore info would be greatly appreciated.
