More than 60 Vietnamese ethnic minority Montagnards have crossed the border to Cambodia to seek asylum through the UN refugee agency.
The human rights group, Adhoc, says 40 Vietnamese Montagnards entered Cambodia earlier this week, and another group of 22 crossed the border three weeks ago.
Pen Bunna of the human rights group, Adhoc, says the refugees are hiding in dense forest in northeastern Ratanakiri province.
He says the UNHCR office in Phnom Penh has been informed of their whereabouts.

Around 2,000 Montagnards - a group whose members backed US forces during the Vietnam war - fled to Cambodia in 2001 and 2004 after security forces crushed protests against land confiscations and religious persecution.

It is so sad to see all these Montagnard people fleeing from the Vietcong oppression and AH HUN SEN Vietcong puppet government kept sending back to the hand of the Vietcong oppressors!
The noblest thing that a human can do to another human being is to offer help and to show compassion! And AH HUN SEN Vietcong puppet government has none of these qualities!
Fucken killer will always be a fucken killer and one day AH HUN SEN will find himself in the same position and God will condemn him!
And those Montagnard are Khmer Leur! May ah Hun Xen go to Hell with his stupid nepheuws soon!
They are Khmer Leur indeed. Cambodia should welcome them with open arms.
