Phnom Penh (FN), Jun. 1 – Cambodian premier Hun Sen's lawyer Ky Tech submitted a request to Phnom Penh Municipal Court to change the date of birth of premier Hun Sen to the actual date, which is 5 August 1952, according to the letter seen by Fresh News on Friday.

"In the past, the date of birth of Samdech in the civil status and identification documents, including birth certificate, family book, Khmer identity card, passport and other documents put the date of birth of Samdech on 4 April 1951. However, the actual date of the premier is 5 August 1952."

“The above issue has led to the confusion of national and international dignitaries, citizens and the general public who send congratulatory messages to Samdech twice a year. Therefore, the lawyer requested the court to issue an order to adjust the date of birth of the premier to the actual date.”
