Rong Chhun, President of the Cambodia Independent Teachers’ Association (CITA) and Representative of the Cambodia Watchdog Council (CWC), said that he is preparing a report to be sent to Hun Xen detailing the results of his visit to the border posts between Cambodia and Vietnam in Kampong Cham. The report is aimed at asking Hun Xen to review and suspend the planting of border posts between Cambodia and Vietnam. Rong Chhun told The Rasmei Kampuchea on 06 December that his request to suspend the border posts with Vietnam is due to irregularities, especially at border post no. 109 in Da commune, Memot district, Kampong Cham province, where he observed that this border post is installed smack inside a cashew orchard belonging to a Cambodian farmer, 200-m inside Cambodian territories.
