The Southeast Asian Muslims, for example, once re- garded as being peripheral to the world of Islam, are now becoming recognized as model Muslim leaders with exceptional abilities to manage difficult tasks such as their own coun- try‟s economic development, the Islamic financial system, democratization and even aero- nautics.

  • Ethnicity and Forest Resource Use and Management
    Page 1 of 11 ETHNICITY AND FOREST RESOURCE USE AND MANAGEMENT IN CAMBODIA BACKGROUND The Community Forestry Working Group established a typological framework to examine the inter-related issues of ecology, tenure, and ethnicity in relation to forest resource perspectives, use and management by rural communities in Cambodia. The typology will serve as a base of knowledge and documentation and as a conceptual framework for understanding community resource use. This will be useful for defining appropriate objectives, strategies, and methodologies to support community forestry development interventions. Specifically, understanding and describing the three underlying typological topics (tenure, ethnicity, ecology) will be helpful for: Establishing a framework for better identification and understanding of existing community forestry activities in Cambodia; A possible identification of appropriate places or regions where community forestry would be relevant and useful for sustainable forest management and for improvement of people's livelihoods; A useful instrument to design programs in a given region with community involvement. INTRODUCTION The population of Cambodia was estimated to be 11,437,656 in 1998. This population consists of different ethnic groups, including Khmer, Cham, Vietnamese, Chinese and hill tribes. Ethnic groups in Cambodian society possess a number of economic and demographic commonalties. For example, minority ethnic villages are more common among the poorest than among the richest quintile of villages (5.3 percent versus 3.2 percent) ( Ministry of Planning, 1999) . While commonalties exist, ethnic groups in Cambodia also preserve differences in their social and cultural institutions. The major differences among the various ethnic groups lie in historical, social organization, language, custom, habitant, belief and religion.

Its mandate ranges across all the dimensions of international policy debate in Australia – economic, political and strategic – and it is not limited to a particular geographic region. Its two core tasks are to: • produce distinctive research and fresh policy options for Australia’s international policy and to contribute to the wider international debate. • promote discussion of Australia’s role in the world by providing an accessible and high quality forum for discussion of Australian international relations through debates, seminars, lectures, dialogues and conferences. Lowy Institute Perspectives are occasional papers and speeches on international events and policy.

  • Register in Eastern Cham: Phonological, Phonetic and Sociolinguistic Approaches
    REGISTER IN EASTERN CHAM: PHONOLOGICAL, PHONETIC AND SOCIOLINGUISTIC APPROACHES A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Marc Brunelle August 2005 © 2005 Marc Brunelle REGISTER IN EASTERN CHAM: PHONOLOGICAL, PHONETIC AND SOCIOLINGUISTIC APPROACHES Marc Brunelle, Ph.D. Cornell University, 2005 The Chamic language family is often cited as a test case for contact linguistics. Although Chamic languages are Austronesian, they are claimed to have converged with Mon-Khmer languages and adopted features from their closest neighbors. A good example of such a convergence is the realization of phonological register in Cham dialects. In many Southeast Asian languages, the loss of the voicing contrast in onsets has led to the development of two registers, bundles of features that initially included pitch, voice quality, vowel quality and durational differences and that are typically realized on rimes. While Cambodian Cham realizes register mainly through vowel quality, just like Khmer, the registers of the Cham dialect spoken in south- central Vietnam (Eastern Cham) are claimed to have evolved into tone, a property that plays a central role in Vietnamese phonology. This dissertation evaluates the hypothesis that contact with Vietnamese is responsible for the recent evolution of Eastern Cham register by exploring the nature of the sound system of Eastern Cham from phonetic, phonological and sociolinguistic perspectives. Proponents of the view that Eastern Cham has a complex tone system claim that tones arose from the phonemicization of register allophones conditioned by codas after the weakening or deletion of coda stops and laryngeals.

  • A Conviction, Finally P.S. Suryanarayana August 11, 2010
    A conviction, finally P.S. Suryanarayana August 11, 2010 It is an old adage that justice delayed is justice denied. However, delayed justice in a case relating to a horrific crime like genocide cannot be brushed aside on the only basis of such a perspective. More so when the issue concerns a three-decade-old genocide in a developing country like Cambodia, which is still coming to terms with its sense of national loss caused by that period of genocides. On July 26, the Trial Chamber of the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) handed down the first-ever judicial verdict on the genocide committed by the Pol- Pot-led Khmer Rouge in that country during the 1970s – April 1975 to January 1979. An estimated three million people perished when they were subjected to physical, political and social forms of genocide. Surely, the latest verdict in Phnom Penh is not about the notorious Pol Pot himself, who died over a decade ago. Nonetheless, the case relating to a Khmer Rouge prison chief, Kaing Guek Eav (67), also known as Duch, reflects a degree of social resilience that Cambodia can perhaps take credit for. The very fact of this judgment, not its finer details, can account for a celebration of justice. As of the end of July, the verdict is still open to the possibility of an appeal. Cambodia, more particularly the present government led by Hun Sen, has often been criticised for being soft on the Khmer Rouge. Such criticism is particularly pronounced in the Western circles, well known for demanding differential standards of justice on different occasions and in respect of different places.

  • Khmer Rouge Tribunal Hears 1St Testimony from Survivor of Deadliest Torture Center Sopheng Cheang June 29, 2009
    Khmer Rouge tribunal hears 1st testimony from survivor of deadliest torture center Sopheng Cheang June 29, 2009 One of the few survivors of the Khmer Rouge's deadliest torture center gave a long- awaited testimony Monday, weeping as he recounted life at the facility where 16,000 others were tortured before execution. Vann Nath, 63, escaped execution because he was an artist and took the job of painting and sculpting portraits of the Khmer Rouge's late leader, Pol Pot. His special status did not spare him misery. The conditions were so inhumane and the food was so little," Vann Nath told the tribunal, tears streaming down his face. "I even thought eating human flesh would be a good meal." Vann Nath said he was fed twice a day, each meal consisting of three teaspoons of rice porridge. Prisoners were kept shackled and ordered not to speak or move. "We were so hungry, we would eat insects that dropped from the ceiling," Vann Nath said. "We would quickly grab and eat them so we could avoid being seen by the guards." "We ate our meals next to dead bodies, and we didn't care because we were like animals," he added. The testimony came at the trial of Kaing Guek Eav — better known as Duch, who headed the S-21 prison in Phnom Penh from 1975-1979. Up to 16,000 men, women and children were tortured under his command and later taken away to be killed. Vann Nath is thought to be one of only seven survivors of S-21, and one of three still alive today, said tribunal spokesman Reach Sambath.
