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.

  • Cambodia: Comfrel's Report on Irregularities in Voter List Revision
    Cambodia: Comfrel’s Report on Irregularities in Voter List Revision and Voter Registration During the process of voter list revision and voter registration for 2007, lasting from September 15 to October 20, 2007, COMFREL has deployed around 200 observers to observe in 400 communes/sangkats across 24 provinces/cities.1 In general, COMFREL observes that both the political and security environment have been improved, although some voters used to or have felt concerns about insecurity, as in previous pre-national election periods. COMFREL highly appreciates the efforts of the National Election Committee (NEC) and officials at all levels, especially village and commune authorities, who have been carrying out voter list revision and voter registration. In some communes, clerks and councils have worked together to create mobile registration working groups to register voters in villages. However, COMFREL observes that the speed of voter registration this year is slower than that of last year. According to NEC temporary results, dated September 28, 2007, by September 26, 2007, in 1,608 communes/sangkats across 24 provinces/cities, the number of newly registered voters was 233,776, which represents 34% of the NEC estimate of 682,459. For the same period in 2006, the rate of voter registration was 47% (273,477 of an estimated 577,205 new voters to be registered). Meanwhile, COMFREL has doubts about the NEC’s unclear estimation on the number of voters to be registered, as the NEC made a wrong estimation number of new voters to be registered in 2006 (estimating around 570,000 new voters while in reality the number had increased to 1.2 million).

New Chances for Local Farmers and Artisans? Efforts and Strategies to Change the Existing Structures of Tourism Supply in Siem Reap Brigitta Hauser-Schäublin Introduction: World Heritage and “The Lucrative Global Tourism Pie” Studies on the implementation and the effects of monuments listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites (WHSs) reveal that – with only few exceptions – the tourism industry rapidly develops (Hitchcock, King and Parnwell 2010). Tourism is located at the interface between economic development (boosting tourism) and conservation of cultural artefacts (keeping them intact and unaffected by visitors). This convergence is, in many cases, conflicting and paradoxical, and includes Angkor (see Miura 2004 and the chapters by Miura in this volume). Or, as Winter puts it: “Tourism looks in both directions: It restores and promotes the past while promising future prosperity” (2007:2).

    Biography of Ms. Horm Soeum Forest Activist Ms. Horm Soeum, 62, was born in Trapeang Tras village, Anlong Samnar commune, Chi Kraeng district, Siem Reap province. She now lives in Sralao Sroang village, Lumtong commune, Anlung Veng district, Oddar Meanchey province with her son, and is a widow. She studied until Grade 3 at the primary school in her hometown. During the Khmer Rouge regime, Ms. Horm Soeum was assigned as a youth mobile team member and moved from place to place. Each youth team member had to transport 25 cubic meters of soil per day. In 1975, the Khmer Rouge arranged for Ms. Horm Soeum to get married to a person from Kampong Cham province that she did not know. The ceremony was conducted with 51 other couples. When the Khmer Rouge regime ended, Ms. Horm Soeum and her husband went back to her hometown village in Chi Kraeng district, Siem Reap province. Due to unfavorable living conditions there, in 1998 Ms. Horm Soeum and her family moved to Varin district, Siem Reap province and continued to Anlong Veng district, Oddar Meanchey province in 2000, where she is living and farming today. Her family, along with the others in the district, were granted resident land on arrival. Furthermore, the local authority gave each family 15 hectares for agricultural use. However, after enjoying the land for six years, it was seized by the Oddar Meanchey provincial governor for a company to plant a rubber plantation, without any compensation to the families. As a result, the “O’Sophy Kiri Prey Srong” community was established in 2004.
