The data received from some licensees may not up to the required level of accuracy and hence the information provided in this report may be taken as indicative. This report is for dissemination to the Royal Government, institutions, investors and public desirous to know about the situation of the power sector of the Kingdom of Cambodia during the year 2012. With addition of more HV transmission system and MV sub-transmission system, more and more licensees are getting connected to the grid supply. This has resulted in improvement in the quality of supply to more consumers. By end of 2012, more than 91% of the consumers are connected to the grid system. More licensees are now supplying electricity for 24 hours a day. The grid supply has reduced the cost of supply and consequently the tariff for supply to consumers. Due to lower cost and other measures taken by Royal Government of Cambodia, in 2012 there has been a substantial increase in the number of consumers availing electricity supply.

  • Making Space and Access in Fisheries Resource Management for Local Communities in Stung Treng Province, Cambodia
    Making Space and Access in Fisheries Resource Management for Local Communities in Stung Treng Province, Cambodia. RCSD’s International Conference on the Politics of the Commons July 11-14, 2003, Chiang Mai By: Try Thuon, Graduate student The Regional Center for Social Science and Sustainable Development RCSD, Faculty of Social Sciences Chiang Mai University Email: [email protected] Abstract Over the last decades, Cambodia has moved from command and control economy to market economy. Meanwhile, access to common property resource such as fisheries sector has spawned conflict inside the sectors between the different actors seeking access to these resources. Moreover, there are serious pressures and externalities from other economic sectors that impinge on the resource base or its flow of products. The use of illegal fishing gears and other stock damaging practices, the struggle over assignment rights and resource entitlements, and the absence of efficient law enforcement and the consequences use of privatized enforcement and violence characterize the internal tensions of fisheries. However, beside this limitation, there are other external factors that shaped the Cambodia’s fisheries management system, such as mega projects of other states in the Mekong Region and growth-oriented development as prescribed by international development agencies. This economic oriented developmental philosophy has considered natural resources such as water, fisheries, forests, mineral and biodiversity as factors of productions in many large-scale development strategies, putting pressure on these resources for profit maximization by transforming natural resource into money, especially for the country in uncertain transition from a socialist state to market economy. As a result, the quantity of fishery resource has declined from year to year, which produce negative impacts on livelihood of local people who are powerless and marginalized in the society.
