  • Huanglongbing in Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar
    Fourteenth IOCV Conference, 2000—Short Communications Huanglongbing in Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar M. Garnier and J. M. Bové ABSTRACT. Surveys conducted in Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar have shown that several citrus species were showing HLB-like symptoms. PCR analysis of leaf midrib samples indicated that “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” infects various citrus cultivars in all the sites visited. Diaphorina citri, the Asian psyllid vector of HLB, was also seen in Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar. Huanglongbing (HLB) has been and in Laos in 1997. The samples shown previously to be present in were brought back to Bordeaux and several south and south-east Asian tested by DNA/DNA hybridization countries, namely Bangladesh, (4) for the samples from Cambodia India, China, Vietnam, Thailand, and by PCR with primers OI1/OI2C/ and Malaysia (1) We have now OA1 (2, 3) for the samples from Laos obtained evidence for the occurrence and Myanmar.

  • Overview: Cambodia
    Overview: Cambodia In merely a few years during the 1970s, perpetrators of the Cambodian Genocide murdered up to 3 million of their fellow countrymen and caused unimaginable suffering to a great number of others. Members of the Khmer Rouge, the radical political regime behind the terror, invoked a dubious justification of their crimes by alleging that such actions would ultimately improve everyday people’s quality of life through the establishment of a more egalitarian society under communist rule. This purportedly utopian pursuit has left the Cambodian people with a painful legacy, one that they are still struggling to overcome. Cambodian history was not always so mired in atrocity. In fact, for a long time, visitors recorded being favorably impressed by the region’s promise of an affluent lifestyle to its residents, known as the Khmer. From the 9th through 15th centuries, the Khmer Empire was based in Cambodia and ruled most of southeastern Asia. Its capital city of Angkor boasted a population greater than one million residents, making it for hundreds of years the largest city in the world. Angkor boasted a reputation for prosperity, but was finally sacked in the 15th century, an event that helped usher in generations of hardship. By the 1800s, the region of Cambodia was locked in a power struggle between neighboring Siam and Vietnam. The French entered at mid- century, and a colonial system soon emerged. While never genocidal, French encroachment was for the people of Cambodia but one more marker on their recent historical downslide. The Japanese invasion during the Second World War saw the weakening of French forces in Cambodia and the installation of Cambodia’s King Sihanouk, whose reign began in 1941.

  • Armed Conflicts Report - Cambodia
    Armed Conflicts Report - Cambodia Armed Conflicts Report Cambodia (1978 - first combat deaths) Almost a decade after the 1991 Paris Peace Accords mapped out a peace process for Cambodia, the country has been removed from the list of armed conflicts because both years 2000 and 1999 saw fewer than 25 deaths arising from political conflict. The recent disbandment of the Khmer Rouge and a beginning to demobilization of government troops reinforced the relative peace. Summary Type of Conflict Parties to the Conflict Status of the Fighting Number of Deaths Political Developments Background Arms Sources Summary: 1999 After final defections to the government, the Khmer Rouge ceased to be a military threat. Extrajudicial killings by the police and military continued, but there were no reports of politically- motivated killings. 1998 Following a February ceasefire between forces loyal to Prince Ranariddh and the government, armed clashes largely arose from government pursuit of the remnants of Khmer Rouge troops in northern Cambodia. Several villagers died in Khmer Rouge attacks, but most of the more than 70 civilian deaths in 1998 were attributed to political killings by government forces, and to violence before and after July elections. 1997 After months of escalating political tension and violence, government forces loyal to Asecond@ Prime Minister Hun Sen staged a July coup that ousted Afirst@ Prime Minister Norodom Ranariddh and executed leaders of his royalist troops. Despite mass defections and internal divisions that resulted in the execution of a former defence minister and the reported imprisonment of leader Pol Pot, Khmer Rouge guerrillas continued extrajudicial killings and, after July, cooperated with royalists in fighting government troops.
