Planning and Leadership Now Needed at Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia
This
paper looks at the challenges facing the Extraordinary Chambers in the
Courts of Cambodia (ECCC), as the first trial of two former senior Khmer
Rouge leaders, Nuon Chea and Khieu Samphan, moves towards its
conclusion. The Open Society Justice Initiative is calling on all
involved with the court to display honest leadership and to respond
appropriately to the evident constraints on time, funding and political
support that it now faces.

As a KR victim, I had stop following the ECCC procedings due to an apparent travesty of justice. The UN should pull out as it can no longer fool the victims. It serves no justice but it will only further aggreavate the suffering and the anger. National reconcilliation does not happen until the victims agree! Some days the remaining KR members may be tried if the Cambodian regime changes. As some Khmer Rouge members had settled in oversea countries, I wonder if the victims may bring any letigation upon these individuals. We shall not relent to persue KR members!
