Days after the National Assembly’s bipartisan Human Rights Commission visited the site of a land dispute between families in Kompong Chhnang province and a private development firm, the Phnom Penh Municipal Court on Wednesday questioned two villagers over complaints they filed against the company.

“Yesterday, we questioned both parties as part of the prepared procedure for the oral argument, but the attempt at reconciliation was not fruitful,” said investigating Judge Chuon Soreasey.

Judge Soreasey said the municipal court received 21 case files from the Kompong Chhnang Provincial Court over the civil complaints filed against KDC International by the villagers, Keo Sokha and Soum Thon, but that 11 of the files were withdrawn after some of the families accepted compensation from the company in March.

The dispute currently surrounds the price of the farmland the villagers say KDC stole from them. Residents value it between $8,000 and $10,000 per hectare while the firm’s lawyer says the market price is $2,000 to $2,500 per hectare.

Chinese developer wants to build expressway, airport in Cambodia

2014-10-01 XinhuaWeb Editor: Wang Fan

A Chinese developer has sought support from Cambodia to develop an expressway from Phnom Penh City to the airport, according to a statement released by Cambodian side on Tuesday.

"In a meeting with Cambodian deputy Prime Minister Keat Chhon on Monday, Chang Xingwen, chairman of the China's Henan Provincial Communications Planning Survey and Design Institute, raised a proposal to build an expressway from Phnom Penh City to the Phnom Penh International Airport in the form of Build-Operate- Transfer (BOT)," the statement said.

The company wanted to develop the expressway from the Camko City roundabout to the airport in the estimated length of 12 km.

For his part, Keat Chhon voiced his full support for the construction of the project, saying that it will contribute to reducing traffic jams in the city.

It is unknown when the project will start and how much it will cost.

Cambodian Garment Factory Workers Suffer From Lack of Nutrition

Cambodian workers call for higher wages at a garment factory industrial park in Phnom Penh, Sept. 17, 2014.

AFP

The health and productivity of Cambodian garment workers have declined due to malnutrition, the International Labor Organization (ILO) said in a joint study this week, adding concerns to the plight of the workers campaigning for an increase in salaries which they say can’t met their basic needs.

Factory owners did not dispute the study but have ask ILO to share with them all the findings for appropriate action.

The study, a joint effort by the ILO’s Better Factories Cambodia project, the French Development Agency and local analysis firm Angkor Research and Consulting Ltd, found that 43.2 percent of garment workers suffer from anemia, and 15.7 percent are underweight.

It also found that garment workers, whose current monthly minimum wage is U.S. $100, spend about U.S. $9 a week on food, or U.S. $1.30 a day.

The results from the baseline survey also determined that garment workers experience high levels of anxiety and uncertainty about food supplies.

About two-thirds of those who participated in the study were “food insecure,” meaning they didn’t always have access to safe, nutritious food. About 8 percent were said to be “severely food insecure.”

“Anemia and food insecurity can contribute to wide-ranging health problems for workers,” said Jill Tucker, program manager of Better Factories Cambodia, in a news release. “Anemia often leads to chronic fatigue, difficulty concentrating and low productivity.”

Immigration Minister Scott Morrison and Cambodian Interior Minister Sar Kheng sign an agreement to resettle refugees from Australia to Cambodia Photo: Getty Images

Bangkok: The United Nations has no plans to boost its presence in Cambodia despite the Abbott government's claim it is working "closely" with the agency in a controversial plan to resettle refugees there.

"There are no plans to expand our two-person office in Phnom Penh at this point," said Vivian Tan, a spokeswoman for the agency in Bangkok.

The UN's refusal to react immediately to the plan, which it has described as a deeply concerning precedent, comes as Cambodian officials play down the possibility of any refugees being sent by Australia within months, possibly years, despite Australia having already committed $40 million in additional aid to the country.

United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres says the Cambodia deal is a worrying development. Photo: Reuters

Cambodia's Interior Ministry spokesman Khieu Sopheak said his country wants to take far fewer refugees than expected after an initial pilot program that could involve only a handful of people.

"It would be 20 or 10 or 50 or 100 or something like this. Not 1000 as people have said," Mr Khieu Sopheak told the Phnom Penh Post.

After Australia's Immigration Minister Scott Morrison sipped champagne to celebrate the agreement in Phnom Penh last weekend, Cambodian officials have detailed a long process before any refugees are resettled in villages and communes outside the capital Phnom Penh.

Foreign Minister [Hor Namhong] Defends Cambodia’s Rights Record

Sok Khemara, VOA Khmer 01 October 2014

WASHINGTON DC—Shortly after a speech in New York by US President Barack Obama, in which he applauded the efforts of human rights defenders, Cambodian Foreign Minister Hor Namhong says his country is making progress.

Obama acknowledged the work of two Cambodian rights activist during a speech at the Clinton Global Initiative’s annual meeting last week, including mention of the slain forestry activist Chut Wutty.

Chut Wutty was shot dead in the forest of Koh Kong in 2012 by police, following an altercation at a checkpoint. He was escorting two journalists through an area infamous for illegal logging. The details of his death remain unclear, and his supporters say the true killer has never been brought to justice.

In an interview with VOA Khmer in New York Saturday, Hor Namhong said the government does investigate such crimes and that it is not uncommon, anywhere, for some crimes to go unsolved.

“In the US, it’s the same,” he said. “Countries around the world are the same. There are a lot of crimes that happen, and they are not solved. It’s not only Cambodia at all.”

Nauru protest stitched lips — A number of asylum seekers on Nauru have stitched their lips shut. Photograph: Supplied

Asylum seekers on Nauru, including children, have stitched their lips shut in protest at being held in detention for more than a year and at plans to move them to CAMBODIA

In a video seen by Guardian Australia, six boys and men appear seated in a tent in a Nauru detention centre, with their lips crudely sewn shut.

A man off-camera says: “These people are some of the migrants who arrived on Australian territory after the 19th of July. At the moment they reside offshore on Nauru in family camp. They have sewed their lips in protest at the new laws that Australia has imposed.”

The Guardian has chosen not to show the video in order to protect the men’s identities.

“Some of them are under 18. There are 10 more people who have done this, but they did not want to be filmed,” the man says in the video.

Guardian Australia has been told that at least one of the men has been taken to hospital after refusing all food and water for more than 48 hours.

Protests are continuing daily in Nauru over what asylum seekers say is discriminatory and cruel TREATMENT

PHNOM PENH—Lawmakers at the Cambodian National Assembly have voted to amend the constitution to make the National Election Committee (NEC) a mandated “independent body.”

The amendment, passed Wednesday, says the NEC’s Steering Committee must work to ensure the independence of the election body. Its nine members will have a five-year mandate and cannot be politically AFFILIATED

or be leaders of other organizations or unions.

The amendment is a step toward election reforms that were demanded by the opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party following polls in 2013 it says were marred by fraud.

The measure calls for an NEC that is independent and neutral and tasked with implementing free elections “in accordance with the principle prerequisites of democracy, freedom and pluralism.”

Rescue Party President Sam Rainsy told reporters after the session that the NEC amendment was a step toward full electoral reform.

“This depends on the law that we will make later after the amendment. Next step is that we will make a law on the formation of the National Election Committee, and then some parts of the law related to voter REGISTRATION

,” said Rainsy.

Hun Sen meets Sam Rainsy at the sideline of parliamentary session

PHNOM PENH (The Cambodia Herald) -- Prime Minister Hun Sen was seen getting out of the National Assembly session Wednesday to meet with Sam Rainsy.

Talk of the two leaders was not known.

120 lawmakers attended the session led by National Assembly president Heng Samrin to discuss and adopt draft law on Constitution amendment relating to National Election Committee.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At a press conference after this morning's National Assembly meeting and after a discussion I [Sam Rainsy] had with Prime Minister Hun Sen, I can assure the public that there will be no government decision in the near future to implement the Areng hydroelectricity power plant project in Koh Kong province. This project will possibly be "left to the future generations" who will decide whether to implement it or not.

Arrested monks were set up, supporters say

Wed, 1 October 2014 Taing Vida

More than 20 monks from Siem Reap protested in the capital yesterday morning in support of two fellow monks who have been defrocked and jailed after accusations that they were using drugs, drinking alcohol and having sex with women.

The former monks, Pich David, 35, and Chan Sambo, 20, have been charged by the Siem Reap Provincial Court with possession of drugs and using violence against the police during an alleged night of debauchery earlier this month. But the protesters claim the persecuted duo are victims of plot to remove them from the Po Lanka Pagoda in the province.

“David is the director of an NGO that helps a lot of children, he is very famous, and Keo Khoy [the chief monk] has been unhappy with him for a long time,” said monk Sok Sokhom.

Khoy, however, said the scandal has nothing to do with him.

In a press conference yesterday, monk Ngim Savsamkhan, a friend of the accused, also maintained that the allegations had been fabricated.

On September 18, police followed a tip to the pagoda where they allegedly found David and Sambo in Savsamkhan’s room at midnight along with two pagoda boys, two girls and some booze.

Cambodian king appoints new chief for customs and excise department

PHNOM PENH, Sept. 30 (Xinhua) -- The Finance Ministry's general department of customs and excise is getting a new boss after the long-serving general department chief Pen Siman retires, according to a royal decree released to the media Tuesday.

In the royal decree dated Monday, King Norodom Sihamoni appointed Kun Nhim, deputy director-general of the general department of customs and excise, as the new director-general, replacing Pen Siman who got retired.

The royal decree instructed Prime Minister Hun Sen to implement the order.

"Prime Minister Hun Sen of Cambodia must take responsibility to implement this royal decree from the day of signature," the royal decree said.

Cambodia's civil servants usually get retired at the age of 60.

Cambodian parliament makes NEC constitutionally independent [Will the NEC really become independent?]

PHNOM PENH, Oct. 1 (Xinhua) -- The National Assembly of Cambodia on Wednesday amended the Constitution to make the National Election Committee (NEC) a constitutionally mandated and independent body.

About 120 of the 123 lawmakers, who attended the session, unanimously adopted the amendment to the Constitution.

The inclusion of the NEC into the Constitution came after the July 22 agreement between Prime Minister Hun Sen and Sam Rainsy, President of the opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP), who agreed to end the opposition's 10-month boycott of the parliament in exchange for an overhaul of the electoral system and a power sharing within parliament.

"I have strong confidence that this amendment to the Constitution will help NEC to work independently to ensure free and fair elections and it will help prevent political crisis after elections in the future," CNRP lawmaker Eng Chhay Eang, chairman of the assembly's commission on human rights, complaints, and investigation, said at the assembly floor.

Pen Panha, lawmaker from ruling Cambodian People's Party (CPP), also chairman of the assembly's commission on legislation and justice, said the amendment to the Constitution was made in conformity with the principles of democracy and the rule of law.

"It will make the NEC implement its obligations independently and neutrally to ensure free and fair elections," he said.

Soldier shot on border

Wed, 1 October 2014

Cheang Sokha

One Cambodian soldier was shot three times and a Thai soldier was reportedly injured in a brief exchange of gunfire on the Cambodian-Thai border in the vicinity of Preah Vihear temple on Monday, military officials said yesterday.

According to Colonel Meas Yoeun, deputy military commander for Preah Vihear, the soldier in question – who survived the shooting – was fired upon as he was patrolling alone at about 1pm near the An Ses border crossing, east of the 11th-century temple.

The top military commanders in the area, General Chea Tara and General Srey Doek, had gone to visit the area to determine the cause of the incident yesterday morning, but the situation at the border was normal, he added.

Preap Theurt, an information official with the military in Preah Vihear province, said that victim Var Savuth, 35, was shot in both legs and once in the back at about 12:50pm.

“He is currently in a military health centre for treatment,” he said. “He was shot while patrolling alone, as usual, then got fired upon.”

One military official in Preah Vihear province, who asked to be identified only as Chamroeun, said he believed it was unlikely that the incident was an accident.

“Normally, we have regular meetings [with the Thais] and inform each other about patrols, so I think it was prepared in advance,” he said.

However, while commanders Tara and Doek could not be reached for comment yesterday, Tara reportedly attributed the incident to “confusion”.

“A brave Cambodian soldier from Unit 405 of the military in Preah Vihear province and a Thai soldier got injured yesterday as there was some confusion,” he was quoted as saying. “The situation is normal; soldiers always obey their orders from superiors.”

Cambodian, Thai soldier injured in shooting on border

The incident was the first violence at the disputed border territory since Thailand’s military junta overthrew the government of Yingluck Shinawatra in a May coup.

World Bulletin / News Desk

Fighting has briefly broken out between Cambodian and Thai forces on disputed land on their shared border near an ancient Hindu temple, a soldier from each side being injured, the Phnom Penh Post reported Wednesday.

The Cambodian soldier was shot three times Monday and has been hospitalized, though it was unclear which side discharged their weapon first, the paper said.

It was the first outbreak of violence at the disputed border territory since Thailand’s military junta overthrew the government of Yingluck Shinawatra in a coup in May, but Cambodian officials insisted it was just some “confusion” and that things were now back to normal.

The Cambodian soldier, Var Savuth, 35, was “shot while patrolling alone,” Cambodian general Chea Tara told the Post.

“A Thai soldier got injured... as there was some confusion,” he added.

I apologize for not being able to update the posts as regularly as I would like to do as I was too busy and too sick in the last few days.

At the same time that I was too busy and too sick, some readers in this forum didn't make my job any easier either. While the majority of readers have played by the rules, one person stood out among the rest as a serial pest and trouble-maker.

Drgunzet, I tried to be fair to you and give you unfettered access to your freedom of speech and expression in this forum without moderation. However, you have chosen to become a troller and your childish behaviors have not only affected you alone, but affected all other decent readers. From now on, you only have yourself to blame, not others, because your voice and opinions have been shuttered! You said early that you will never submit to my rule of moderation of your comments. Now your wish has been granted and your voice will not be heard for a long, long while.

I apologize to all decent readers, but a moderation is necessary to stop a serial pest and serial troller like Drgunzet from provoking racial hatred and racial slurs against Khmers.

In the meantime, please enjoy Sin Sisamuth's Non-Stop Song About "Battambang".

Vietnam eyes US arms sales, downplays China impact

Vietnamese Foreign Minister and U.S Secretary of State John Kerry.

By Matthew Pennington (Associated Press) | Updated September 25, 2014

NEW YORK — Vietnam said Wednesday it wants to be able to buy weapons from the United States and that regional powerhouse China should not be alarmed.

As relations between the U.S. and Vietnam warm, the U.S. is moving closer to lifting a ban on lethal arms exports applied after the communist victory in the Vietnam War.

Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister Pham Binh Minh said it's been nearly 20 years since Washington and Hanoi normalized relations, and so it's "abnormal" to retain the ban.

"If we do not buy weapons from the United States, we (would) still buy from other countries," Minh said at the Asia Society. "Why should China bother about that?"

In Cambodia, the US unleashed an unprecedented aerial savagery on defenseless people.

Since his early days as a correspondent covering the wars in Southeast Asia in the 1960s and 1970s, documentary filmmaker and journalist John Pilger has been an ardent critic of Western foreign policy. Following in the footsteps of Martha Gellhorn, Pilger set out to cover the Vietnam War from the perspective of those most affected by it: the Vietnamese people and US draftees.

In 1979, he filmed Year Zero: The Silent Death of Cambodia, which depicted the humanitarian catastrophe following the ousting of the Khmer Rouge from Phnom Penh. He would go on to make three more films about Cambodia, and become an outspoken critic of the United States’ intervention in the country and the West’s support of Pol Pot.

Pilger spoke with Daniel Pye, a reporter for The Phnom Penh Post, about covering the aftermath of the Khmer Rouge, Henry Kissinger’s recent comments downplaying the US bombing of Cambodia, and new plans to send Australian refugees to the kingdom.

Daniel Pye: You visited Cambodia in 1979 with filmmaker David Munro and photographer Eric Piper. What drew you to the country and what was it like reporting in the aftermath of the overthrow of the Khmer Rouge?

John Pilger: I had reported, written about and filmed Vietnam since the 1960s. I suppose part of my heart lay in Indochina and its struggle for peace and independence — a struggle in which Vietnam may have lost more than 4 million people and Cambodia certainly lost well over 2 million, if you include the bombing and civil war that paved the way for Pol Pot. So, yes, I had kept a close eye on developments in Cambodia.

Hor Namhong told the Assembly that Cambodia supports joint international efforts to fight terrorists, and he requested that the international community come together to combat the Ebola virus.

WASHINGTON DC—Foreign Affairs Minister Hor Namhong addressed the UN’s General Assembly on Monday, in a speech that focused more on the threat of the Islamic State and international conflicts than it did on Cambodian issues.

Hor Namhong told the Assembly that Cambodia supports joint international efforts to fight terrorists, and he requested that the international community come together to combat the Ebola virus.

“While extremism is threatening the world peace and security, the spread of epidemic infection of Ebola in Africa has also become one of the worst threats to the world today,” he said. “It is of critical importance that international community should make concerted efforts to address this global challenge in an effective and timely manner.”

Cambodia has participated in UN peacekeeping operations, with more than 2,000 personnel, he said.

Meanwhile, Cambodia continues to work to reduce poverty under UN benchmarks, he said.

Cambodia sets its poverty reduction target to 19.5 percent by 2015, but it has already reached that goal, cutting its poverty rate to 19 percent in 2013, he told the Assembly.

Sept. 30, 2014,

IMMIGRATION Minister Scott Morrison signed a deal with Sar Kheng the Interior Minister of the Cambodian government on Friday, September 26 (‘‘Ministers silent on details of $40m Cambodia ‘pay off’’’ Sydney Morning Herald 27/9).

To me, the $40million is little more than a bribe by the Australian government for the Cambodian government to accept the secret deal, since the details have been withheld from the Australian people.

Since one aspect is known, that only those who are deemed to be refugees voluntarily choose to be resettled in Cambodia will go there, what happens if not one of them makes that choice?

What happens to the $40 million? Does Australia get it back?
