Will the US allow an Obama-viction?

Paving the way for an OBAMA-VICTION?
4 September 2012

The Cambodia Daily reported in today’s edition that more than 180 families living next to the Phnom Penh International Airport are told to move out of their homes to make way for a new road for US President Obama’s visit to Cambodia in November. The road is to provide safety for the US president. “We were told that Phnom Penh plans to extend the airport to provide a safety road for Obama,” The Cambodia Daily quoted Chray Nin, the representative of the 182 families facing the alleged Obama-viction, as saying.

The families are now complaining this case to the Phnom Penh city hall to demand for compensation for the eviction which is also confirmed by Var Sarang, the deputy chief of Chom Chao commune.


Sean McIntosh, the US embassy spokesman, did not comment on the planned eviction. However, he noted that Obama’s attendance in Phnom Penh was not yet confirmed.

In July, the residents of Thmat Kaul village received notices of eviction once already, but they were able to stave off their evictions by complaining to the city hall. Subsequently, the city hall reduced the expansion plan of the airport from 30,000 square meters to 15,000 square meters and at least 80 families were able to save their homes.
