Samdech Akka Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Cambodia, calls on sports fans Khmer boxing stops criticizing and attacking each other regarding the match between Cambodian boxer Chhoeung Lvei and Thai boxer Sammy Ben Chamek on the 15th April in Siem Reap.

Through the live broadcast on the official page, Samdech Techo Hun Sen raised three important points to mediate and end the criticism as follows:

First. Samdech Techo Agreed with Tycoon Srey Chanthorn regarding Athletes Not to Allow Athletes to Compete Again The Cambodian national team is preparing for the upcoming SEA Games.

Samdech Techo said: “If something happened like the case of Chhoeung Lvei, how could his leg be healed? Before the SEA Games? This is a point that I agree with the views of Tycoon Srey Chanthorn.

Let the Boxing Federation take care not to have any controversy regarding the players who will compete in the SEA Games In the future.

Second. Samdech Techo mentioned his opponents on April 15, some of them competed in 3 rounds, but Chhoeung Lvei and Thai Samy competed. 5 water.

Samdech Techo said: “This problem, according to my own interpretation and opinion, maybe this couple is a friendly couple. Normally it would not have been possible without a pre-match settlement.

Even if you only play 3 rounds, then you are forced to play 5 rounds, I think it is not possible. "So only the organizers can give an answer to this problem."

Third. Samdech Techo focused on the case of criticizing and accusing the referee who counted the Thai players, Samdech Techo agreed According to the referee's interpretation.

Samdech Techo said: “We can not win just want to win and can kill opponents. This is a virtue and it is wrong with the rules of the sport as well.

When there is a loss of response and he has an extra stroke, it can lead to death. Yes. If this happened in Cambodia, it would be worse than what is being debated. That the referee was taking bribes from Thais.

I do not understand that. I agree with the referee's interpretation that comes out of the professional framework. When a response is lost, rescue is essential. When the other partner loses the response, if they continue to let go until the other side dies, only the winner wins It is not possible to do that.

It is a virtue. I ask for understanding. We have already given the referee the right to lead the match. He has the right to do this work.
If this match he grabbed Chhoeung Lvei and let Thailand be the wrestler, he was wrong, but now Chhoeung Lvei is wrestling "For a Thai player who is already losing his position, it can be difficult to save his life."
