Translated by a member of KKFYC The Buddhist Patriarch Tep Vong and Nuon Nget colluding with Communist Country of Vietnam in creating new crimes to allege Khmer Krom Buddhist monks and taking advantage of their power to abusing the Buddhist laws as well as a country’s laws and the laws of human rights show us that Cambodia is a Country under Communist hegemony and is ruled directly by Vietnam. This is made clear by the untoward events against Cambodian Venerable Tum Sokhoun; Events that occurred in Preah Trapeang province on February 8, 2007; at a Pali School in Khleang province, as well as Chau Dauc province in Kampuchea-Krom that has the authorities harassed, disrobed and jailed Khmer-Krom monks while threatening the indigenous Khmer-Krom citizens all over Kampuchea-Krom are arbitrarily design to break the Khmer-Krom determinations and spirits. This communist regime continues to oppress Khmer Krom citizens in all sectors of life and in all kind of shape and form; making Khmer Krom poorer, making sure Khmer Krom stays ignorant and destroying Khmer culture and eliminating Khmer religion etc… Despite the numerous intervention and appeals by national organizations and even United Nation organizations to stop these inhuman acts against Khmer Krom; The Vietnamese communist regime with the help of monk Patriarch Tep Vong and Ngon Nget continue to expands their works on silenting Khmer-Krom in Cambodia from telling the truth about what Vietnamese communist have done to eliminate Khmer Krom people and identity out of Vietnam. Tep Vong and Ngon Nget is responsible for the defrocking, imprisonment; the pressure and crimes toward Khmer Krom monks in Cambodia. They are also a menace toward Khmer Buddhist scriptures. For reasons describe above, we would like to appeal to all Khmer and Khmer Krom around the world, to be participate in a global protest in order for Cambodia government to stop their activities on working and helping Vietnamese communist government and revoke Tep Vong and Nuon Nget from their power who doesn’t understand the basic concept of Buddhism.
