PHNOM PENH - UN and Cambodian officials say they are committed to finding enough funding for the Khmer Rouge tribunal to continue its work.
This follows talks from former US ambassador-at-large for war crimes, David Scheffer, who is the UN’s special expert for the tribunal, and Cabinet Minister Sok An on Wednesday.
The hybrid court needs about $35 million to operate in 2013, with $9.4 million for the Cambodian side, according to a joint statement.
So far, only $2.5 million has been funded for this year, tribunal spokesman Neth Pheaktra said. The international side of the court has enough money to continue through June, but the Cambodian side already needs $7 million, some of it for salaries for 270 staff members, he said.
Sok An and Scheffer said in the statement their objective was to find a solution to the “funding matters that can enable the [court] to complete its mission of achieving justice for crimes committed during the Khmer Rouge regime.”

Funding has NOT work in the past why will it work in the future?
At the same time there is NO PROSECUTION done in the past why will there be any proper justice in the future?
NO MORE FUNDING!!
UN are usless. Enough of wasting peoples times. Its been over 10 years and billions of dollars spent, yet the Khmer Rouge leaders are still in power.
Send Hun Nal, Chea Sim and Heng Samrin to the real court of justice in ICC.
ខ្មែរក្រប់មជ្ឈដ្ឋានរង់ចាំមើលជានិច្ច តើ David Scheffer នឹងមានវិធីសាស្រ្តយ៉ាងណា ដើម្បី
ពន្លឿន ការកាត់ទោសមេខ្មែរក្រហមលោកនួនជា
និងខៀវសំផន ដែលទទួលឥទ្ធិពលពីចិន និង
ក្រោយពីមរណភាពមេខ្មែរក្រហមអៀងសារីដែល
ជាចារកិច្ចរបស់យួនតាំងពីដំបូងមក។
រឿងនេះ ប្រសិនបើ រឿងសាលាក្ដីត្រូវបរាជ័យ លោកដំណាងអង្គការសហប្រជាជាតិនឹងទទួល
ភាពអាមាសដ៏ជូរចត់ ព្រោះលោកបណ្ដោយឱ្យ
មេដឹកនាំយួន អូសទាញតាមចិត្ត ដូចជារបប
ផ្ដាច់ការភ្នំពេញ ររាំងដំណើរការកាត់ក្ដីដោយ
បញ្ជាឱ្យគេបណ្ដេញមេធាវីផ្នែកស៊ើបអង្កេត
បរទេស ខ្វះថវិកាសម្រាប់បុគ្គលិក ។ល។ និង
។ល។
មិនត្រឹមតែបរាជ័យទេ គឺ លោកជាអ្នកទទួល
ខុសត្រូវទាំងស្រុង ព្រោះជនរងគ្រោះខ្មែរជិត
២លាននាក់ត្រូវបានឆ្លៀតខ្ចីដៃប៉ុលពតសម្លាប់
នៅតែគ្មានយុត្តិធមដដែល......៕
