A dozen of councillors from the opposition Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) has accused
Phnom Penh Deputy Governor Mann Chhoeun of showing partisanship in his
leadership of the Phnom Penh City Hall when he used workshop seminar to attack
the opposition party, reports Radio Free Asia.
The 8 councillors stormed out of the workshop on 31st March when Mr. Mann
Chhoeun, the Cambodian People's Party-appointed Deputy Governor, said that he
wanted to "knock out their teeth" for accusing the Cambodian People's Party
(CPP) officials of forcibly evicting slum-dwellers from the city in the past.
Mr. Lam Soeun, one of the SRP's councillors who stormed out of the workshop,
has called for Mr. Mann Chhoeun's removal at a press conference after the
workshop. "My group is a working group representing the SRP and it is
unacceptable to us when he used an offensive language like this, because if the
leadership cannot show neutrality he cannot become a leader also. This is the
reason why we didn't participate in the seminar", he said.
Mr. Ho Vann, SRP MP for Phnom Penh, said Mr. Mann Chhoeun's partisan comments
caused division within the City Hall along the political line of the SRP and
the CPP. "In the City Hall we must think that those people (SRP councillors)
are councillors working for the government who are the representatives of the
people in our city. This is the right thinking. If at the start of the meeting
he started divide them along the political line, I think that it is very hard
to work with each other", he said.
When contacted, Mr. Mann Chhoeun played down the importance of the controversy.
"I wish to suggest to you all that we should think about the development of our
city. Don't think too much about our bickering", he told a reporter.
A statement released by the 8 SRP councillors said that they will refuse to
participate in any future seminars under the chairmanship of Mr. Mann Chhoeun
unless he changes his attitude because he had always tried to score a political
point at every seminar in the past.
