New York, Oct 24 : Despite progress in the 20 years since the Paris peace agreements ended decades of fighting in Cambodia, much still needs to be done to fulfill the promise of the accords, including instituting an independent judiciary and a fully pluralist democracy, a United Nations expert warned on Sunday.
"Cambodia has undeniably progressed over the past 20 years,with peace and stability bringing enormous dividends in terms of wealth and development," Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Cambodia Surya P. Subedi (pictured) said in a message marking on Sunday's 20th anniversary of the accords that ended the war with the Khmer Rouge, whose 1975-1979 regime is estimated to have killed up to three million people in what is widely recognized as genocide.

I 10000% agree. Let each province govern itself like the US each states have it own states law beside federal law.
Good luck with that idea. Hun Sen would never agree to that idea.
