The Cambodian Independent Teachers’ Association (CITA) issued an open letter calling for the International community which provides aid to Cambodia to apply pressure on the government to respect the promises it made, in order to lead the country towards development.
The letter was issued on Friday 15 June by CITA – which claims to represent several hundreds of thousands of civil servants – just ahead of the Consultative Group (CG) meeting to be held in Phnom Penh city.
Leng Bun Hong, a CITA representative said: “CITA calls on donor countries to please pay attention and apply pressure on the government leader so that the anti-corruption law is adopted. This government promised to ratify the anti-corruption law since the CG meeting in 2004. Then, the government promised to have the law ready by the end of 2005. Now, we can see that corruption is growing in all (government) institutions.”
There was no immediate reaction from government officials on this issue.
