The land – a 1,300-hectare area of Thma Puok district’s Banteay Chhmar commune – was given to the residents by the state in five-hectare allotments, 50-year-old villager Pen Sophon said. “They cleared our land of more than 10 hectares, and they plan to clear the whole 1,300-hectares, which will affect 425 families. The local authority must inform the residents first why they took bulldozers to clear our land,” he said. He added that the villagers had not received prior notification of the Leang Bou company’s plans to clear the site, which he said were carried out with the help of about 50 soldiers. Another resident, Than Pov, 42, said that while the land had not been properly measured, this did not give the company the right to bring in the bulldozers. “Even though the residents did not have their land measured to get a license, companies should not take bulldozers to break our land,” he said. Deab Chhun, a Thma Pouk district deputy governor, said that authorities were examining the case and would investigate the company when they had an official complaint.

mCÄmNÐlÉkßrkm<úCa Banteay Meanchey Province : June 21/ 1999 - June 25, 1999 On the afternoon of June 21, 1999, the Documentation Center of Cambodia sent a mapping team composed of Mr. Sin Khin, responsible for contact with local authorities and also interviews with witnesses, Mr. Ouch Sam Oeun, the Global Positioning System Unit (GPS) operator to record geographical positions of killing pits, memorials and prisons, Mr. Vanthan Peou Dara, responsible for filling information in site forms and helped interview witnesses, Mr. Yin Nean, responsible for drawing map of pits and prisons, and Mrs. Iem Sokym was a report writer. We flew from Phnom Penh to Battambang and we traveled in a car from Battambang to Banteay Meanchey Province. At 3.30 PM our team got off the plan in Battambang Province and continued our journey in a car along 70 km road towards Banteay Meanchey Province. We arrived in Banteay Meanchey Provincial town at 5:30 PM . Next day, June 22, 1999 at 8:30 AM, our team went to Banteay Meanchey Provincial office to ask the provincial authority for information about the geographical locations of districts to which we were going. Unfortunately, we did not have chance to meet the provincial governor because the governor had already gone to Banteay Chhmar temple to meet with Thai delegation since June 21, 1999. We, however, met with Mr. Diep Chhuon, deputy chief of provincial cabinet. He let us know that after the election 1998, Banteay Ampil District has not been under Banteay Meanchey Province, but Oddor Meanchey Province. If we want to go there, we have to go to meet with Oddor Meanchey Provincial governor in advance.

DC-Cam's Promoting Accountability Report in Svay Chek
mCÄmNÐlÉkßrkm<úCa DC-Cam's Promoting Accountability Report Svay Chek and Thmar Puok Districts, Banteay Meanchey Province December 6-13, 2010 Long Dany, Team Leader General Description and Brief History of Districts Before 1988, Svay Chek was a commune within Thmar Puok district, Battambang province. In 1988, Banteay Meanchey was established as a new province. The province was separated from Battambang province and Thmar Puok was integrated as a district within Banteay Meanchey. Svay Chek commune then became a district of Banteay Meanchey province. Svay Chek and Thmar Puok districts are approximately 420 to 440 km from Phnom Penh by National Road #5, which connects to a road in the provincial town of Svay Chek (Phkorm commune) and another road in Thmar Puok. Between 1970 and 1975, Thmar Puok district was a military base of the Lon Nol regime. The Khmer Rouge (KR) could not control the district during this period. When the KR took over the country in 1975, Lon Nol soldiers in Thmar Puok district disarmed and joined the KR. A few days later, KR soldiers arrested and killed all of these soldiers. During the DK period, Thmar Puok district was within Region 5, Northwest Zone. Ros Nhim was the chief of the Northwest Zone. Hing was the chief of Region 5. Ieng Lai and Chiel were the deputy chiefs of Region 5. Chhat was the chief of Thmar Puok district. Huot was the deputy chief of Thmar Puok district. In 1977, most KR cadres were arrested and killed. Ros Nhim and his subordinates in the zone were replaced by cadres from the Southwest Zone.
