“Please stop using the military or police forces to protect the company.”Rights groups say they are concerned with a spike in reported land disputes that have gone unresolved under the current law.
The increasing number is because the government is providing economic land concessions while powerful government officials are also seizing land from the people, Chhith Sam Ath, executive director of the NGO Forum, told reporters Tuesday.
Land disputes reported to NGOs under the umbrella organization climbed 27 percent in 2009, from 173 cases in 2008, and another 32 percent in in first five months of 2010, according to the NGO Forum.
Nun Pheany, spokesman for the Ministry of Land Management, denied the reports that land disputes were increasing. The ministry received 5,000 complaints since the beginning of 2009 from 24 provinces and municipalities and has resolved 70 percent of them, he said.
In a joint statement issued Tuesday, the Coalitions of Civil Society Organizations said most land dispute cases were still unresolved.
“Most land dispute cases involve companies including both local and foreign investment companies as well as wealthy and powerful people,” the group said. “They affect large number of families and are mostly disputed with companies who obtained an economic land concession. It’s worth to note that in the past, land dispute cases usually involve dealing with violence and end up unresolved. Only few cases have been settled legally.”
The statement of concern comes ahead of a large donor meeting scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday.
The coalition recommended more participation of poor communities in land decisions, fair resolution and compensation in existing land disputes, a stronger resolution mechanism, a cease to arrests made in land disputes and the empowerment of authorities to solve land dispute cases.
“Please stop using the military or police forces to protect the company,” the group said.

ReplyDelete9:59AM,
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas! But people in Cambodia are fucking coward and pathetic! They rather live crawling on thier bended knees then stand on their feet to fight back. This is why only several people able to owned and controle the whole nation and peoples. This is why they have lost so much territories to thieves, Thai and Youn. And now they can't even protect the little that is left. Khmer are fucking stupid! Khmer are fucking idiot! I am glad I don't live in that fucking stupid country. Khmer are disgraceful! They all deserve to die to extinction. What a waste of living space and breathing air. Coward motherfucker!
I don't understand why they always hold posters of meee rany and ahhh kwak hun xen when they protest. This two are the top perpetraitors. What the fuck are this idiots thinking? Do they really think this bitch rany and ah bastard xen will help them. What a moron. No fucking common sense.
ReplyDeleteAll Khmers,
ReplyDeleteYou don't have other choice, but to organise an Armed Uprising against these Hanoi's Puppet Hun Sen's families and cronies.
All of you are in a loose-loose situation by Legal Means.
Freedom will never come from the Sky. You have to fight to get that.
Hun Sen and Hanoi will continue to oppress you and confiscate your lands for their own interessts.
And how many Vietnamese illegal immigrants in Cambodia now ??? 5-6 million and continues to add on.
The Hanoi's Vietnamisation is step by step and almost finished to their goal The "Indochina Federation".
All of you will be Hanoi's slaves on your ancestors Lands very soon.
They cannot kill all of you in all Sroks and all Provinces, otherwise the whole world will step in.
If you don't dare to die you won't survive, rise up with Axes,Swords, Sticks, Knives, and possible hand Guns, shot guns to riot and kill them for your Freedom and liberate your country from the vietnamese yoke.
1:13pm,
ReplyDeleteCambodians won't dare. They are fucking coward. They have lost so much territories to Thai and Youn for centuries. Until now they don't even dare and have the guts to fight back to protect the little of what's left. Those Cambodians are fucking idiot! Pathetic! Disgraceful! Coward motherfuckers!!! They so weak that it is impossible for others to help. Them motherfucker don't even dare and take the chance to stand on their feet. They rather crawl on their knees. They have hit the rock bottom. No one have any more feeling to help them. They are beyond helpable. I bet they continues to live crawling on their bend knees until death to extinction.
