Sonando: Government Responsibility to the Public and Lack Of

Listen to Mr. Sonando's speech on Cambodian government
Human Rights forum, Mr. Mom Sonando, Beehive Radio Director points out to government corruption of a party-based leadership within the executive department rather then an elective official of people's wish.

He also addresses issues of land ownership, government responsibilities towards citizens.

Here are key points of his speech:
1. Government is a body elected to represent the people, must stay neutral in the obligation of its duty to the nation, not distinguishing who to help based on party loyalty

2. Government duties should not been seen as acts of generosity of certain individuals, citizens must not see it as invitation to pledge loyalty. Government should not use state resource to sponsor political propaganda and reward relief and assistance based on allegiance. It should represent and help all citizen.

3. Government should be responsible for ushering in proper and genuinely helpful development for the citizens rather then to steal their land and accuse them of not being useful with them. Governments should have development based programs and education for poor citizens.

4. The government's land, national asset, does not "belong" to the government.. They are a national asset of the entire citizens and must be shared by all citizens for enhancement of their living.
