The Ministry of Interior has removed four Oddar Meanchey provincial officials from office, including former deputy governor of Anlong Veng district Nhem En, for failing to show up for work, according to a ministry letter received by Khmer Times yesterday. 
 
According to the letter issued on December 12 last year by the Ministry of Interior and signed by deputy prime minister Sar Kheng, Mr. En, Chhit Chhuk, Sin Mano and Oeun Ratana have been removed from their positions.
 
“The reason the Ministry has decided to remove them is because they abandoned their jobs,” the letter read.
 

The letter also said that a number of government officials, including the general secretary of human resources at the Ministry of Interior, had to follow the announcement as of the day of its signature. 
 
“All other regulations having content opposite to this Prakas are considered null,” the letter added.
 
Sar Thavy, Governor of Oddar Meanchey province, could not be reach for comment yesterday, nor could Mr. En. 
 
Mr. En, a former photographer at the Khmer Rouge’s infamous Tuol Sleng detention center, became deputy governor in Anlong Veng district in 2005, joining the district’s council in 2009; in 2011, he became deputy governor of the district before becoming an official working in the Oddar Meanchey provincial cabinet in 2014. 
 
Despite switching party affiliations multiple times throughout his career, Mr. En was a registered member of the CPP at the time of his dismissal by the Ministry of Interior in December.
