Thank you. Source: Radio Free Asia To contact Khmerization please send an email to: [email protected] Reported in English by Khmerization . Sources from Samlaut on 30th July said that many Samluat peasants in western parts of Battambang province are facing losing thousands of hectares of their lands to a private development company. FOLLOW KHMERIZATION BY EMAIL Sources said a private company, Rath Sambath, is planning to develop on 5,200 hectares of farm lands the peasants Email address... Submit claimed they owned since the Khmer Rouge still control the areas in the 1980s and 1990s. One peasant said: "At that time, Cambodia was still at civil war, we have not achieved peace yet. But after 1993, after the VISITORS ONLINE peace talks (between the government and the Khmer Rouge), we came to clear the lands, some were killed, some have their limbs blown off (by landmines) in these areas." According to the map of the Rath Sambath concessionaires, it was indicated that in 2002 the 5,200 hectares of lands were areas covered with thick forests. But according to VISITORS BY COUNTRY SINCE 4 JULY the on-the-spot survey report, the concessionaires had covered 946 hectares of lands owned by peasants from 200 families in three communes. 2009 A human rights investigator from the human rights group Adhoc, who investigated the case on the ground, said: "First, there must be a re-evaluation of the areas. Secondly, we appeal to the company not call any more meetings to intimidate (to coerce people to accept the comapnay's terms). Thirdly, I notice that the concession agreements (with the governent) are surrounded with secrecy, especially in regard to the documentations." Radio Free Asia is unable to seek comments from provincial officials or representatives from Rath Sambath company. Many analysts are of the view that this land dispute might lead to a repeat of the Samlaut Uprising when the Samlaut peasants launched a peasant rebellion in 1967 after provincial and government officials forcibly confiscated their lands. Thousands of Samlaut residents were brutally killed in the government crackdowns. Many people fled to a near by mountain called Phnom Vay Chap and set up a guerrilla base to oppose the government. Khmer Rouge leaders later claimed that the Samlaut Uprising was the cornerstone of their peasant revolution that brought them to powers in 1975.

  • Writers and Singers Assassinated by Their Government—Usually a Dictatorship—Or Killed During a Massacre
    IN THE TIME OF THE ASSASSINS: MARTYRED POETS, WRITERS, AND SINGERS by Henry Rasof The focus of this article is simple: writers and singers assassinated by their government—usually a dictatorship—or killed during a massacre. A small selection of victims, whom I think of as martyrs, will be discussed briefly, followed by basic information about one or two of their creative works and links to a few relevant web sites. I will not be doing any sort of analysis or comparative discussion. Just getting the basic facts is challenging enough. In one of the rooms of my house is a room with several shelves of books, CDs, and memorabilia dedicated to these martyrs. PERSIAN SUFI WRITER: Attar of Nishapur Abū Hamīd bin Abū Bakr Ibrāhīm, better known as Farid ud-Din Attar or Attar of Nishapur, was the Persian author of the Sufi (Islamic mystical) classic The Conference of the Birds (English title), dated 1177. The characters in the book are different types of birds. Attar died in a Mongol massacre in Nishapur in about 1221, when he was in his 70s.

  • 43E Festival International Du Film De La Rochelle Du 26 Juin Au 5 Juillet 2015 Le Puzzle Des Cinémas Du Monde
    43e Festival International du Film de La Rochelle du 26 juin au 5 juillet 2015 LE PUZZLE DES CINÉMAS DU MONDE Une fois de plus nous revient l’impossible tâche de synthétiser une édition multiforme, tant par le nombre de films présentés que par les contextes dans lesquels ils ont été conçus. Nous ne pouvons nous résoudre à en sélectionner beaucoup moins, ce n’est pas faute d’essayer, et de toutes manières, un contexte économique plutôt inquiétant nous y contraint ; mais qu’une ou plusieurs pièces essentielles viennent à manquer au puzzle mental dont nous tentons, à l’année, de joindre les pièces irrégulières, et le Festival nous paraîtrait bancal. Finalement, ce qui rassemble tous ces films, qu’ils soient encore matériels ou virtuels (50/50), c’est nous, sélectionneuses au long cours. Nous souhaitons proposer aux spectateurs un panorama généreux de la chose filmique, cohérent, harmonieux, digne, sincère, quoique, la sincérité… Ambitieux aussi car nous aimons plus que tout les cinéastes qui prennent des risques et notre devise secrète pourrait bien être : mieux vaut un bon film raté qu’un mauvais film réussi. Et enfin, il nous plaît que les films se parlent, se rencontrent, s’éclairent les uns les autres et entrent en résonance dans l’esprit du festivalier. En 2015, nous avons procédé à un rééquilibrage géographique vers l’Asie, absente depuis plusieurs éditions de la programmation. Tout d’abord, avec le grand Hou Hsiao-hsien qui en est un digne représentant puisqu’il a tourné non seulement à Taïwan, son île natale mais aussi au Japon, à Hongkong et en Chine.

  • CAMBODIA: Opposition Leader Mu Sochua -- "It's Morally Wrong to Stay Complicit" with an Oppressor
    CAMBODIA: Opposition leader Mu Sochua -- "It's morally wrong to stay complicit" with an oppressor May 1, 2012 Contributors: Dr. Gaffar Peang-Meth , ARHC An article by Dr. Gaffar Peang-Meth published by the Asian Human Rights Commission I wrote in my last article in this space of the accumulating circumstances that compel a change in the current leadership of Cambodia. In Cambodia, the rich are getting richer while one-third of the population lives on less than US$0.61 per day. Many survive on what they scavenge from garbage dumps only blocks from the lavish homes of the wealthy. Those who live in rural areas, too, are losing economic ground, and most are impoverished. Considering Cambodia's estimated annual population growth rate of 1.7 percent (compared with France, 0.5 percent or England, 0.2 percent) and the slow increase of Cambodia's GDP per capita, it would seem that Cambodians will continue to struggle against a tide of poverty for the foreseeable future. Odom, an unemployed university graduate in Cambodia, armed with World Bank statistics on Gross National Income per capita between 2007 and 2010, reminds me that Cambodia remains the poorest country among its neighbors: a Lao is on average richer than a Cambodian by a ratio of 1.24 to 1, a Malay, 10.51 to 1, and a Singaporean, 53.03 to 1; in 2010, a Thai had an income 1.4 time higher than the incomes of a Vietnamese, a Lao and a Cambodian combined. Martin Hutchinson's "Cambodia must solve two big problems for takeoff" (Reuters) asserts that "Feeding, educating and housing ever more Cambodians will be a challenge," but zeroes in on "Corruption as the real enemy" and cites Transparency International's Corruption Index ranking of Cambodia as among "the worst global slums." Greek philosopher Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC), a founder of Western civilization, warns in Politics, "The passion for equality is at the root of revolution." An established general theory links inequality and violent rebellion.

    Corporate Land-Grabbing & Fabricated Charges in Cambodia: What Can Canadian Lawyers Do? Canadian Bar Association International Assistance Section Vancouver, BC, Canada Catherine Morris1 February 12, 2014 Speaking notes I have been invited to speak to your section about the work of Lawyers’ Rights Watch Canada (LRWC), a committee of Canadian lawyers who campaign on a pro bono basis for lawyers and other human rights defenders around the world who are threatened as a result of their advocacy. LRWC also conducts research and education to promote the independence of lawyers and judges and the integrity of legal systems. The best way for me to illustrate the work of LRWC is to tell you about some of my own work on Cambodia. I will discuss three cases in which LRWC intervened in Cambodia. I will conclude by summarizing what LRWC does around the world and mentioning two major challenges we face in our work. First, I will provide some briefly background about Cambodia. Background on Cambodia The first things that often come to mind about Cambodia are the atrocities of the Khmer Rouge period from 1974-1979 when close to a quarter of the population perished or was slaughtered. Canadian lawyers interested in Cambodia tend to focus on the Khmer Rouge tribunal that is working to hold top leaders of that regime accountable.2 While this is important, it will not be the focus of my talk today. Nevertheless, it is important to note that the Khmer Rouge period and its aftermath continue to form the violent backdrop for happenings in Cambodia today.

The rise to power of the anti-Western, fanatical Khmer Rouge in 1975 caused drastic and permanent changes for Cambodia. These years saw social upheaval in the form of massive famines, selective executions and a brutal campaign of genocide responsible for the deaths of an estimated two million Cambodians, many in the notorious “killing fields.” Even the most famous and beloved Khmer musicians could not escape.
