I am very much in agreement of what people said about Boeungkok lake being a haven for criminals, thugs, and backpackers who frequent different places for drugs and other criminal elements.

In all fairness, it is the responsibility of the authorities whether they be the district police and other authorities who have jurisdictions in and around Beoungkok lake to clean up and provide the necessary security to its citizens living near and the surrounding areas.

My opinion on preserving the lake is merely based on the fact that Phnom Penh dwellers will find its useful in terms of its use as recreational park, place where children can go fishing, biking, running and do all sort of things...Imagine, preserving and beautifying it so that it becomes a place of gathering for families on weekdays as well as weekends?

It adds value to our livelihood...How much value can a couple of hundred of millions of dollars add to our society? In the short run, it is good only to those who get direct benefits from the deals that were made.

The suffering and development compromise are our future generations and the impacts are immeasurable. The lake will be long gone after a year or two from now...It is essentially wipe off from our future map...and to me that is an irony in our contemporary history. To these ends, I plead that decisions that were made be reversed for the sake of our children
