-----Original Message----- From: SRP of Pennsylvania <[email protected]> Sent: Tue, Jun 15, 2010 9:17 am Subject: Last day to sign the petition for Mrs. Mu Sochua Last day to sign the petition for Mrs. Mu Sochua Mu Sochua and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (Photo: Huffington Post) 15 June 2010 By S. Botum Free Press Magazine Online Translated from Khmer by Socheata Click here to read the article in Khmer Click here to sign the petition online The call for justice is an achievement that received support from people all over the world. The Internet campaign to seek support for the freedom of expression in Cambodia will be sent to the White House on Tuesday 15 June, Mu Sochua claimed. Last Thursday, Kampot SRP MP Mu Sochua, the deputy Secretary-general of the opposition party, looked for support to oppose the decision handed down by Cambodia’s Supreme Court which dealt a defeat to her in her appeal against the defamation lawsuit brought up by Hun Xen. The court ordered her to pay a fine and compensation amounting to 16.5 million riels (~$4,100), but Mu Sochua firmly announced that she would rather go to jail than paying a dime. Mrs. Mu Sochua announced to reporters yesterday that: “We will send this petition to the White House today through our network.” That decision was made after the petition received about 1,200 supporting signatures (as of now, the petition received 1,400 signatures). To Mu Sochua, the petition is a ringing bell to wake up the world, in particular a call to US President Obama about the severe violation of the freedom of expression of the Cambodian people by the current country rulers. Mrs. Mu Sochua hopes that her call will lessen rights violations in Cambodia. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ -- [email protected] http://www.samrainsyparty.org SAM RAINSY PARTY OF PENNSYLVANIA INTEGRITY-HONESTY-JUSTICE 1800 S. 15th St. Philadelphia, PA 19145 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cambodia Discussion (CAMDISC) - www.cambodia.org" group.
