Sam Rainsy Party says it supports revoking all land concessions to private companies


Published: 14-Feb-12

PHNOM PENH (Cambodia Herald) – The opposition Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) supports revoking all land concessions granted to private companies, spokesman Yim Sovann (pictured) said Tuesday.

“We have to solve these problems and stop evictions,” he told the Cambodia Herald. “The current government has given seven million hectares of land concessions, one third of Cambodian territory, to private companies for only $10 million a year,” he said, asserting that the concessions affected the environment and violated human rights.

Yim Sovan also claimed that “250,000 families have been evicted because of land issues”

Koul Panha, executive director of the Committee for Free and Fair Elections in Cambodia (Comfrel), said some political parties will use whatever means to gain popularity.

The opposition Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) supports revoking all land concessions granted to private companies!
I don't think that they can get any closer to Kampuchea Democratic era when all land belongs to the state. Anyway, it is a good try.
