A coalition of rights groups said Friday human rights remains a major concern in Cambodia, as International Human Rights Day approaches.
While Cambodia has progressed economically, it has not matched that progress with the rule of law, independence of courts or free and fair political processes.
Monday is the 59th International Human Rights Day.
A group of advocates for the Khmer Kampuchea Krom ethnic minority said the anniversary was a chance to look at the withering rights of the marginalized group.
