A spokesman for the National Land Dispute Authority of the Council of Ministers, Chum Bunrong, admitted Thursday that Cambodia faces land grabbing problems, but said the government was working to solve them.
The government has offices to deal with land disputes at three levels: district, provincial, and national, said Chum Bunrong, as a guest on "Hello VOA."
He urged rights groups to discuss land issues with local officials before speaking out to the press.
"NGO and rights workers in the provinces can express their opinions at the district level, they have that right," Chum Bunrong said. "They shouldn't go straight to various radio stations and create problems. If you discuss it, you may decide that some parcels should be sold, some belong to the government, and so on. It can be solved."
The Land Dispute Authority was formed in 2006 to deal with increasing land disputes.
Since its creation, the authority has taken back more than 225,000 hectares of land from violators across Cambodia, Chum Bunrong said.
Those involved in land disputes can call the Land Dispute Authority for more information and updates on resolution, he said.

ah lop,lop 5:56 ah yakong slave for life. uneducated and idiot, you better read first before you open your mouth!
Look at the Hun Xen police treated our people.
Bullshit, that is KI Media propaganda. They must used the stupid picture hundreds of times already.
You idiot should learn to open your fucking brain a little wider to accept the truth, because from what I have read every comment you have made, it indicated that you are the close-minded, ill-bred rustic, stepping on one side the boat. The picture KI posted is not stupid; it is you that fucking stupid!
Nonetheless it's still the same picture that KI repeated every other days.

You Viet troller/intruder admitted yourself here on KI-Media to being a Viet-born and national.
You Viet troller/intruder have been dumping tons of trashes here on KI-Media over God knows for how long.
You Viet troller/intruder pretend to be Cambodian/Khmer speaking up for Cambodian/Khmer and giving Cambodian/Khmer a bad name.
You Viet troller/intruder trash everybody here on KI-Media calling Cambodian/Khmer all sort of names to boast, to sabotage and to destroy Cambodian/Khmer for the benefit of you Viet intruder/plunderer....
Now, you Viet trash/troller/intruder/parasite call that a debate?
Does history and now a live example of you Viet trash/troller here on KI-Media tell Cambodian/Khmer anything about the Viet's trustworthiness?
Cambodian/Khmer and the whole world see and know the true colors of you Viet troller/intruder/invader/plunderer/parasite too well already.
In plain and simple English, now, and again what part of you "getting the fuck out of KI-Media" don't you understand huh you fucking Viet troller/intruder/pimp/plunderer?
Let's see you Viet pimp/parasite's tail between your legs and run on home out of KI-Media now!

You will hurt the Viet and not hurting us Cambodian/Khmer by hanging around here on KI-Media and having made such comments.
Go home Viet, go home!

Lans-grabbings happened a long time ago. Why they just admit now? Now that they've admitted the problems exist, how are they going to solve the problems? Hun Sen must get tough. Any powerful persons or companies found to be land-grabbers must be punished.
Who else can Hun Xen punish besides the innocent poor?
Can any decent folk help one of the chatters who might have the brain damage or he might have one side of the brain from birth. It makes him cuss in every one of comments. We should help each other find a dog's or a monkey's brain to fill the other half of his brains, so he might be able to cut down some cussing words.
THE CPP regime, is all talk, NO ACTION.
IF U GONNA TALK, WALK THE TALK!
vote and support only democratic party 2008. vote no more hanoi
Then you are blind.
Action speaks louder than words. And lot of actions have carried out by the CPP, that's why 80% of our poor compatriots have been suffering this much.
the truth tastes bitter. only the brave can swallow it!
Yeah, but 80% of your stupid compatriot don't belong in srok Khmer, but srok Yuon. Go back to Vietnam if you don't like it here. No one is twisting you arm.
When you say someone is stupid, you are the one who is more stupid. You son of the devil should read to understand what someone said first, and then you can open your fucking to talk back. Don't just talk back to someone arrogantly because you don't like him. What kind of an ill-bred idiot are. You must be born from a bitch, because if you were born from a Cambodian mother she must have taught you self-respect and displine.
Enough nonsense, Maggot Feeder. Now just get back to you VC shit pit where you belong and allow rational people to debate in peace, alright?
You use the wrong term to define yourself; rational don't fit you. Animal fits you better.
No you Viet pimp/parasite @10:18 AM you head on home to Hanoi first...
