Kampong Chhnang provincial authority is planning to resettle the Vietnamese settlers living in "floating villages" along the Tonle Sap River on to land areas away from their present floating villages, reports Cambodian Express News.
Currently, there approximately 1,982 Vietnamese immigrant families living on floating boathouses in a community called Teuk Phoss (Spring Water) in Kampong Chhnang province. Kampong Khleang maritime communities are in Kampong Chhnang province. There are many Vietnamese floating villages along the Tonle Sap River like Teu Phoss and Krakor, but Kompong Khleang is one of the largest communities on the Tonle Sap Lake. The town of Kompong Khleang (Harbour of the Storehouses) is untouched by tourism with no tourist facilities whatever. The town has well over 20,000 people living in spectacular stilt houses, which are up to 10 metres above the river.
Mr. Sou Phirin, Governor of Kampong Chhnang province, said he had plans to settle these Vietnamese and Khmer floating villagers on to land areas in the past, but his plans were unsuccessful.
Mr. Hok My, Vice-President of the Vietnamese Association in Kampong Chhnang, said his association plans to request for 900 hectares in land concessions from the Cambodian government to resettle between 1,000-1,200 Vietnamese floating villagers on to land areas. He said his association plans to also use the lands to build schools for the Vietnamese children, hospitals, markets, temples and vegetable gardens.
Mr. Pan Lai Kheang, Deputy Director of Immigration Office in Kampong Chhnang, said there are 1,982 Vietnamese families living in floating boathouses in Boribor district in Kampong Chhnang province. Beside this large community, there are a few more large floating Vietnamese settlements in Kampong Trolach, Kampong Leng and in Cholakiri districts of Kampong Chhnang province which the authority did not know the exact number of population yet.
The authority said that the presence of the Vietnamese settlements and the settlers on the Tonle Sap River have polluted the water and disturbed wildlife and cause damages to the environment and social disorders. They said the measures are necessary for the protection of the environment, the river and maintain social orders in the areas.

Should send them back to Vietname, sice they are illegal . Why do we have to offer them land, where many Khmer indigenous can get any land from government.
The Vietnamese goverment side always send back any Khmer, who had been living in Vietname. We should treat these people in the same way.
Anyway Cambodia is flooded by Vietnamese people, in 20-30 years time Cambodia will be a nother province of Vietnam.
I forget to tell you that in Kapuchea Krom, Khmer Krom indigenous are not allowed to watch Khmer T.V or listen to Khmer radios. Isn't it clear that you can see the True colour of Hanoi, who wanted to abolish Khmer culture and Khmer race completly?
We all should wake up. If we fail to act now. We will be a refugee in your own country, just like Khmer Krom are facing now.
True Khmer

problems at the same time

It is ridiculous that the Cambodian govt is considering giving these Viet illegal settlers 900 hectares of lands while if it has been busy confiscating a lot of lands from Khmer poor farmers to give to rich Khmer and foreign investors. If the 900 hectares are given to these Viet settlers, they will build a big colony inside Cambodia that will threaten our security in the long run. The Cambodian government should check their ID, immigration documents and status to determine if they have legal rights to live in Cambodia. if they cannot produce legal documents about their immigration status, they must be sent back to Vietnam the same as what Vietnam and Thailand did to Khmer refugees and those who fled persecutions.
