The Interior Ministry on Friday warned police across the kingdom not to sell any state property under their control.
“Only the Ministry of Interior and especially Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Sar Kheng has the right to decide what state property can be sold, transferred or rented,” Dul Koeun, director general for the General Directorate Department of Finance and Logistics of the Interior Ministry, said at the ceremony to promote public financial reform.
“Even your cars that interior ministry have provided for your units to be used for implementing your work, you do not have rights to sell them,” he said. “Even if they are old, you need to inform about those cars. Every thing will be transparent and we are all clear together.”
In the past years, some issues involving with the state property in the police forces units made the Interior Minister angry because the ministry was unaware of the sale of property including buildings. The deals were sometimes already done before they were reported to the top levels. Some police officials have been demoted or fired from their positions, Sar Kheng said. “Now we have to terminate those things,” he added. “All property in your office, including the land plot of your office, belongs to the state, and you have to register in the inventory book of the government,” he told police. “Other state property, including real estate at your offices, needs to be registered in the inventory list to facilitate the management of all state property, even cars that were provided by charitable people to police units. You do not have the right to decide to sell or transfer those cars,” he stressed.
“You will be confronted with questions from the Interior Ministry and if you will not follow the rules from and guidelines from the Interior Ministry, we will demote or fire you,” he warned.
The Financial Reform Law “will bring the prosperity for our police units and also will bring benefits for all of us. Our salaries for police forces will be increased step by step,” he added.
The lowest rank of police officer officially earns about US$80 per month, with salaries rising according to rank. A police general receives about US$200 per month.
