Original report from Phnom Penh
02 June 2008
The 200 villagers from Battambang province who last week began a march on the capital have broken up and are now waiting for a resolution to a land dispute from the government.
Only a handful remains in the capital, to meet with officials, and most of the others have returned home, villagers said.
Investigators for the rights group Adhoc said Monday the villagers are prepared to renew their march if no resolution is found.
Last week, nearly 200 people marched from Battambang as far as Pursat province before a government invitation for talks halted them.

Communist is communist.
Always make false promise so many times.
And next time, ask more people to join. Real power of people.
Good luck to our poor cambodians.
