Cambodian authority prepares to move Vietnamese floating villagers over to land areas

Kampong Chhnang provincial authority is planning to resettle the Vietnamese settlers living in "floating villages" along the Tonle Sap River on to land areas away from their present floating villages, reports Cambodian Express News.

Currently, there approximately 1,982 Vietnamese immigrant families living on floating boathouses in a community called Teuk Phoss (Spring Water) in Kampong Chhnang province. Kampong Khleang maritime communities are in Kampong Chhnang province. There are many Vietnamese floating villages along the Tonle Sap River like Teu Phoss and Krakor, but Kompong Khleang is one of the largest communities on the Tonle Sap Lake. The town of Kompong Khleang (Harbour of the Storehouses) is untouched by tourism with no tourist facilities whatever. The town has well over 20,000 people living in spectacular stilt houses, which are up to 10 metres above the river.

Mr. Sou Phirin, Governor of Kampong Chhnang province, said he had plans to settle these Vietnamese and Khmer floating villagers on to land areas in the past, but his plans were unsuccessful.

Mr. Hok My, Vice-President of the Vietnamese Association in Kampong Chhnang, said his association plans to request for 900 hectares in land concessions from the Cambodian government to resettle between 1,000-1,200 Vietnamese floating villagers on to land areas. He said his association plans to also use the lands to build schools for the Vietnamese children, hospitals, markets, temples and vegetable gardens.

Mr. Pan Lai Kheang, Deputy Director of Immigration Office in Kampong Chhnang, said there are 1,982 Vietnamese families living in floating boathouses in Boribor district in Kampong Chhnang province. Beside this large community, there are a few more large floating Vietnamese settlements in Kampong Trolach, Kampong Leng and in Cholakiri districts of Kampong Chhnang province which the authority did not know the exact number of population yet.

The authority said that the presence of the Vietnamese settlements and the settlers on the Tonle Sap River have polluted the water and disturbed wildlife and cause damages to the environment and social disorders. They said the measures are necessary for the protection of the environment, the river and maintain social orders in the areas.

This is under hun sen new development plans. All youn live illegally on floating water and catch all khmer's fish. hun sen plans to move them a good and safe place. But a few khmer krom refugee just ask them for legal document to live in Cambodia, they all denied. even-though the khmer constitution said so.
Is this a real khmer government independent or the government of youn's puppet?

If someone want to live in our country, they have to respect our legal, our way of life and our Khmer culture. Otherwise they can move out or go to to live in another Western country.
For your future life, you have to learn from the Chinese Khmer. They live side by side with us and not on a floating village. It also destroy our environmental development and the value of water.
The Chinese Khmer have done a lot for our country. They support our Khmer culture, Khmer society and Khmer Community.

It is ridiculous that the Cambodian govt is considering giving these Viet illegal settlers 900 hectares of lands while if it has been busy confiscating a lot of lands from Khmer poor farmers to give to rich Khmer and foreign investors. If the 900 hectares are given to these Viet settlers, they will build a big colony inside Cambodia that will threaten our security in the long run. The Cambodian government should check their ID, immigration documents and status to determine if they have legal rights to live in Cambodia. if they cannot produce legal documents about their immigration status, they must be sent back to Vietnam the same as what Vietnam and Thailand did to Khmer refugees and those who fled persecutions.

I agree with relocation of these boat people Viet or Khmer. They are poluting the lake and the water with shit and urine. We should ask Hanoi to help finacially in this relocation cost. May they all should move back to Vietnam if they like the relocation to land area.

Dear Compatriots

Let give up all prejúdices. I understand your opinion about the Vietnameses.But open your mind. Before 1975 there were also Vietnamese in Cambodia and on the Tonle Sap lake.

How to do with them? You cannot deport them to Vietnam. Neither you can let them live on the Lake and pollute water!

The best thing is to remove them (Yuon and Khmer, I call Yuon not a derogatory word)humainly from the lake and let them settle on the land.

You have no other way. Racism and prejúdice are not helpful. I don´t like Hun Sen and the CPP, but as a human being we must act along the international law towards forigh settlers.

Relocate them, OK. But give them free land like what they asked for 900 hectares is a no, no. They came to Cambodia illegally in the first place. while Hun Sen evicted and confiscated thousands of hectares from poor Cambodian farmers to give to the rich investors, he cannot give free land to these illegal Viet settlers. if Hun sen is going to give these Viet settlers free lands, he must give free lands to poor Khmer farmers first.

Anonymous said...

Mr 3:15 . Give them the land in exchange of ther " water area " in the Tonle Sap lake is better than letting them pollute the water.
Who are at fault? It was the Vietnamese-backed Hun Sen government who allowed them to come back and resettle there.

Just 900 hectares to resettle them, it´s not too much, comparing of Million of hectares allocated to the Companies.

The main issue or problem is to integrate them in the Cambodian society. Their children must study in Khmer Schools, I mean they must have access to Khmer Schools without discrimination. It´s better for them to be Cambodians in the future instead of being Vietnameses for ever in Cambodia. Open your mind and have a long vision about this matter.

Have your children marry the Vietnamese girls is better than with the girls of the Khmer goverhment corrupt officials who are rich and powerful, but stupid and rotten. You will get intelligent off-springs for the Country.

I am very happy to see our gov't heping people to have a better place to live. We have planty of land yet to be sub-divided into city and town for people who are in need. Once this is done, we can see that our nation is moving toward the 21st century and that means we are doing the right thing. Therefore may God continue to guide us into the right direction and may we all live in peace in the name of human right and dignity for all. Life is all about love, compassion, understanding and respect, like "loved others just like i have loved you or treat others just like you want to be treated", this is the answer for all, if you want to live in peace. Again, do the right thing for the righteous will live forever and the wicked will be terminated and that at the end we will belong to the earth and the earth does not belong to us. Jesus once said "some have eyes but can not see and some have ears but can not hear, so we know all the answer already and we must try to appreciate everything that we have got today before we lose it again. Finally materia things belong to the earth as you came out into this world with nothing and you will go back with nothing but those who gain the wisdom of life will live forever and ever. Aust

This is very grave issue. What about Khmer Krom that living in Cambodia? They don't have the right to do anything without the docs.

How come Hun Sen allows this??

Anonymous said...

Why does Hun Sen government want to resettle these illegal Vietnamese people in Khmer land and provide them with land and housing?

How're about Khmer people who have no house to live and need help?

These are stupid Khmer leaders who try to help others, but not their own people. I agreed to take those people out of Tonle Sap for a long time, but just send them back to their own country. Their government did not help or let Khmer Krom have freedom, but our government did the opposite way.

To Mr/Mrs. PPenh resident,

You are obviously an open-minded person to some extent. But your perspective of open-mindedness towards other inflicts a prejudice against your own people.

You say that allowing Khmer to marry the Vietnamese girl would produce intelligent offspring in the future reflects a racist undertone against your own people. What you are saying is that Khmer race is stupid, and could only produce necessary intelligence when bred with the Vietnamese race.

Intelligence is a human trait, it does not discriminate. It is facilitated by good policy of education and a nurturing environment. Something that the Hun Sen government had been unable to grasp for the last 30 years for Cambodia.

As long as Cambodia is under day light of the Hun Sen and his old communist peasants of honorary degrees, Cambodia will continue to remain intellectually stunt as a race.


In regard to the Vietnamese problem. I do agree that relocation onto land is positive change. Firstly, environmentally, they are depleting the fish and aquatic population by overfishing and pollution.

However, I do resent the double standard granted to Vietnamese residents in Cambodia here. You can call me a narrow-minded person, but I believe in laws and consistent policy.

There is no consistency here, Cambodia is dealing with foreign settlers, and most illegals. It should have a proper immigrant law that examines the problem by their cases.

In 2000s, we saw a whole lot of Vietnamese ethnic immigrant who fled Vietnam, then, we had no reserves about rounding them up and sending them back to Vietnam.

The Highland of Vietnam were unfortunate in that regard. In today still, we have the Vietnamese ethnic minority from the Mekong Delta who shares the same blood as ourselve, and yet our open-mindedness fail to work in these cases. We deny them land concession even if by just a few hectare to build a house or reside and find work.

Yet here we are, confronted with thousands of illegal aliens who came not for refuge but to freeload off our resources. Rather than dealing with them on a nation to nation level like we dealt with the the refugees (harshly) we, "open-mindedly" or should I say, blindedly, allow these people land and documents to reward them for their depletion of resources.


I say, with open-minded still--but for the law- that we should fine each family, not an excess amount, but some amount for the years of illegal pollution, and to make up for the cost and strain of their relocation process.

We require each family to identify their documents, and charge also for new registration process if they do not have one already. In some case, if possible, we should deport the ones who have not resided in Cambodia for a very long time.

At the same time, 900 hectare of land, should be paid for by the Vietnamese government since most of these people are illegals. Or it should be a community loan system, where they pay taxes or some sort of payment to the government for their relocation lot.


All in all, I am for integrating these immigrants to the Khmer society. But stance is only that the government must do so in a lawful and consistent manner and provide the same sense of urgency and sensitive to these people as they should to the other immigrant and refugee communities -- more so to the refugee communities like the Khmer Krom and Highlanders because it is our obligation to protect people who seek refuge in our nation. Not reward those who came to ravish our resources. It sets a back example and destructive policy for the nation.
