PHNOM PENH - Representatives from some 370 families arrived at the Phnom Penh administration building of Prime Minister Hun Sen on Monday, calling on him to intervene in a land dispute in their home province of Preah Vihear.
Leaders of the group said they are being ousted from their homes along National Road 64 to make room for government land for retired soldiers.
Chea Yean, 60, from Sroryong village, near the border with Siem Reap province, said authorities had already begun to bulldoze the land, leveling villagers’ crops.
Hun Sen has designated a youth corps to measure land in some disputes, and Chea Yean said he wanted their help in settling the dispute.

Sous Yara, an undersecretary of state for the Cabinet Ministry, said officials will go to the area to investigate

i think cambodia must develop our preah vihear province. of course, certain fragile ecosystem should be protected as well, but the development of this province of cambodia is necessary, too, so our provinces like preah vihear will not stay isolated and underdeveloped much along, really! be smart and enlightened, cambodia. we have to help developm our nation in all provinces and all areas as well, ok! wake up already, ok! god bless my country cambodia.
cambodia have too much ignorant population of people, how about help to change that into a more educated, better informed population of people in cambodia. that's better, really!
