“Reliable and multiple eyewitness sources in Thailand have reported that
Thai military officials, at the apparent direct order of Prime Minister
Samak Sundaravej, in preparation for his upcoming trip to Laos, used
teams of military attack dogs led by armed soldiers to intimidate and
maul some 12-13 Lao-Hmong refugees at Ban Huay Nam Khao detention center
as brutal preparation before forcing them back to the Communist regime,”
stated Philip Smith, Executive Director, of the Center for Public Policy
Analysis, in Washington, D.C.

where are the world communities eyes and ears to keep all to account!
especially Thailand, being so close to the US congress hearing where
is the US teeth? the EU champion of human rights. Xieng is not denying
that repatriation is unavoidable but there must be check and
verification, on Laos side they keep saying they have nothing to hide
but their actions do not inspire trust that is the issue.

Dear friends,
You like it or not, the wheel is moving and both countries will
proceed with rapatriation of illegal migrants by sending back to their
country of origin. This issue of illigal migrants lasted too long and
it seems like the final stage is approaching and both countries agreed
to settlement this issue in a better terms and conditions without any
interference from third party.

I just came out from the talks between the officials delegations of
Lao PDR and the kingdom of Thailand led by the two Prime Ministers
respectively.

Both countries agreed that to settle the problem of Hmong illegal
migrants, root cause has to be eradicated. And if there is no more
opportunity to go to third countries, the root cause will just
desapeared.

Sok dee

After all said and done, we will see that the Lao mongn in Thailand
will fall into three groups - some will be settle in Thailand, one
group will be resttled in thrid countries and the larger group will
have to return to Laos. So, it is inevitable that the bulk will have
to return to Loas.

And it is good to know that the Lao goverement have come accept that
these people in Heuy Nal Kha are indee Lao citizen and Laos gas agree
to accepth them back - thisis a positive step on the part of Loas as
being responsible to take care of her people.

It is trully saddened to have seen such big news article as stated
above be published. It does cause great damage to the Hmong's
credibility. I trully feel sorry for the people that provide such
false information to Phillip Smith to make such big news in the US. As
one of the closest monitoring organization of Hmong Huay Nam Khao, I
am very ambarrassing to be part of this dirty game. The victims are
continuing to be victimized to the political propaganda.

Yeah, Mr. Smith should have done some homeworks before making himself a
fool in front of the United States Congress.

Mr. Smith & Thanouxay/Y all are doing their job the public have to
read between the lines and what have reported even Bagdad Ali can
become populus lets hope th UN and US congress are no fools.
