  • SPEECH of His Holiness Samdech Preah Aggamahasangharajathipati Tep Vong the Great Supreme Patriarch of Kingdom of Cambodia
    SPEECH of His Holiness Samdech Preah Aggamahasangharajathipati Tep Vong The Great Supreme Patriarch of Kingdom of Cambodia - Your Holinesses and esteemed Religious Leaders, - Most Venerables and Venerables - Your Excellencies - Distinguished Guests - Ladies and Gentlemen War is always a ‘USELESS MASSACRE’. All beings, not just humankind who wish to live within peace, happiness, and prosperity. Even though they wish so, but all beings especially human historically committed dramatic crimes against humanity again and again and they are continuing to do that at the present day and probably in the future too whenever people don’t have loving- kindness and compassion toward each other. Here, I would like to invite you all to learn a little bit about a dramatic or a bitter past history of Cambodia about war which completely destroyed Cambodian society and country, and it remains affect to Cambodian society and country until today. The beginning of the massacre in Cambodia It was on 18th March 1970, Marshal Lon Nol did the Coup d’etat to out king Norodom Sihanouk, head of state, from power, and immediately created Khmer Republic. Then, the civil war exploded for the whole country. The war between Khmer Republic led by Marshal Lon Nol and Kampuchea Democratic led by Pol Pot lasted for five years and it took many innocent people lives, interruption and destruction of the nation. On 17th April 1975, Democratic Kampuchea won the war and came to power. Then Cambodian people and many leaders in the world hoped that the war in Cambodia would be finished. Unfortunately, the war not just not be finished; but it was just the beginning of the genocidal regime.

    No. 10 (2008) elx 10 K>s> 2008 Siem Reap–Angkor During the War (1970–1975) and Democratic Kampuchea (1975–1979): From Violence to Totalitarianism Henri Locard THIS PAPER RELATES THE MAIN FEATURES OF THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE OF ANGKOR and the city of Siem Reap in the years of the civil war (1970–1975) and the self-styled Democratic Kampuchea (DK) regime (1975–1979). The French Conservation was able to continue with some renovation at Angkor during the early 1970s. While under DK the inhabitants of the site had been relocated further to the north to make room for the visits of foreign— mainly Chinese—delegations. The revolutionaries overran Siem Reap city also on 17th April 1975. They did not expel the population straight away as in Phnom Penh, for they were busy celebrating their victory at a big meeting, among scores of monks within the first walls of Angkor Wat temple. Most other temples of the archaeological site were to be abandoned under DK, some only to be cleared of surrounding villagers in 1978, when the Khmer Rouge (KR) planned to open the site to a few foreign tourists. None of the Siem Reap pagodas were destroyed, but put to mainly military use, while all monks were disrobed. The lives of most members of the Conservation (Aphireak) team and their families were spared. They had been taken to small village collectives in the Roluos–Bakong area, as the Angkar probably had been planning to make use of them at some later stage. The Siem Reap old colonial prison was packed with detainees to meet the same fate as at S-21 and Chœung Aek.

  • The Run-Up to Cambodia's 2003 National Assembly Election Political
    The Run-Up to Cambodia’s 2003 National Assembly Election Political Expression and Freedom of Assembly under Assault A Briefing Paper by Human Rights Watch June 2003 The year 2003, when Cambodia is to hold its third national election in a decade, began on a grim note with the murders of a high-profile politician and a senior monk in February. A judge and a court clerk were killed in April, and another judge was attacked and beaten. Twelve activists and supporters of parties not affiliated with the ruling Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) have been killed since the February 2002 commune elections. The Cambodian government has used the January 2003 demonstrations and violence against the Thai embassy and Thai businesses as an excuse to clamp down on fundamental freedoms of expression, assembly, and association. New electoral regulations also limit the ability of political parties to meet, while Cambodian voters continue to be denied access to the information needed to make meaningful choices at the ballot box as a direct result of the government’s persistent refusal to open up the media to parties not aligned with the CPP. Although there has been some reform of the governmental National Election Committee (NEC), its ability to act impartially to ensure fair media access, respond to incidents of political violence, ensure a transparent and accurate vote count, and manage the electoral complaints process will indicate how much independence and authority it really has achieved. This report summarizes the major human rights issues in the run-up to National Assembly elections scheduled for July 2003, and includes recommendations to the Cambodian government, the NEC, the political parties, and Cambodia’s international donors.
