Khmer Rouge tribunal officials met with local rights organizations Friday in a bid to strengthen cooperation between the court and civil society and to improve outreach to victims of the regime.
Outreach activities for the tribunal are currently conducted separately among non-governmental organizations and the court’s Victims Unit.
“The aim is to avoid repetitive outreach activities, which cause a waste of resources and a waste of time and make trouble,” said Kassie Nou, coordinator for outreach activities of the Victims Unit.
The groups met Friday to discuss ways they might work together to inform the public about the proceedings and encourage them to file testimony or complaints as civil parties in upcoming trials.
The tribunal is currently undertaking its first trial, for Khmer Rouge prison chief Duch, who faces atrocity crimes charges.

To all belove Khmer,
You are not deserve to be Khmer, Khmer Australian, or Khmer American...etc if you are not support or donate money to SRP and dares to support the CPP. Despite, we have hidden this policy because Hun Sen and CPP can mocking on us but SRP and our supporters will carry this policy until we win the election. In addition, whoever dares to post any topic in this forum which doesn't support SRP, we will use very bad languages to hunt you down. We are the best in using bad languages against Hun Sen and the CPP.
The opposition (SRP) has no policy to force any Khmer to support us, but if any Khmer dares to support the CPP, SRP and our supporters will brand you as Youn.

It is great to know a secret policy of Sam Rainsy Party in insulting whoever support Hun Sen's regime and the CPP.
Please keep fighting and insulting whoever doesn't support SRP.

We like democracy and always respect the freedom of speech, but we really hate whoever support Hun Sen's regime and the CPP.
I do agree the idea that whoever supports the CPP must not call him/herself as Khmer. Khmer have to support SRP and donate money as much as you can to help our party in fighting with CPP.
