  • A Field Trip's Report in Veal Veng District, Pursat
    mCÄmNÐlÉkßrkm<úCa DC-Cam’s Promoting Accountability Project A Field Trip’s Report in Veal Veng District, Pursat Province May 18-24, 2011 By Long Dany General Description and Brief History of Districts After the integration of the Khmer Rouge forces by the Cambodian government in 1996, Veal Veng was created as a district in Pursat province. Previously, Veal Veng had been one of the communes included within the Kravanh district. Veal Veng is approximately 120 kilometers from Pursat, and it can be reached by Road Number 56 which links Pursat and Veal Veng across the Kavanh district. The road between Pursat and Kravanh district is paved and smooth, but the road from the Kravanh district to Veal Veng is bumpy and rough. It is a gravel paved road with several old and ailing bridges. The Veal Veng district town is located 75 kilometers from the Thai border of the Trat province. The border checkpoint is called Thma Da. Nowadays, the authorities of both countries allow their citizens to cross the border only on Saturdays. Approximately 60 kilometers south of the Veal Veng district is the O Ta Som commune, where a Chinese company is building a hydroelectric power station. O Ta Som is just about 40 kilometers from the Koh Kong provincial town. Veal Veng comprises of five communes: Pramoy, Anlong Reap, O Ta Som, Kra Peu Pi, and Thma Da. Veal Veng has a population of 13,822 people—3,197 families. At the present time, the government is drafting a decree to create more communes and villages for Veal Veng because of its huge space of land.

  • In Decentralized Commune Development Planning in Cambodia
    Abstract The research focuses on the applications of local good governance (LGG) in decentralized commune development planning in Cambodia. The main objectives are to study the institutional framework and mechanism of LGG application in CDPs; to examine the applications of LGG in the implementation of CDPs; to gain the perception and satisfaction of CCs members and local people on the application of LGGs in the CDPs; to analyze facilitating and constraining factors in the application of LGG in CDPs and to suggest recommendations to strengthen LGG performance for effective implementation of the CDPs and provide planning and policy implications. Royal Government of Cambodia launched its formal decentralization policy in 2002, while communes of a few provinces of Cambodia were piloted since 1996. There were a number of policies and development plans developed in order to support decentralized level (CCs), and LGG was a part of these. Two communes namely Khnach Romeas and Prey Khpos communes in Battambang province, which were experienced decentralized policy since 1996 and 2002 respectively were purposively selected for this research. Six elements of LGG including rule of law, participation, accountability, transparency, responsiveness, and effectiveness and efficiency were covered in this research. Standardized questionnaires were developed for 60 CCs and committees, and 110 sampled households, checklists were used for focus group discussion, key informants interview, observation and case studies on CDP projects. Secondary data including laws, policies and plans, sub-decree, declaration and manuals were collected from NCDD of MoI, MoP and development agencies. Both quantitative and qualitative techniques were used in this research. There were institutional and mechanisms on enforcing and supporting LGG in CDPs at decentralized level, which defined by regulations, laws, sub-decrees, decisions, guidelines and manuals.

  • Cmvis External Evaluation Report
    CMVIS EXTERNAL EVALUATION REPORT Elke Hottentot March 2006 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The success of any evaluation depends on the willingness of people to share their knowledge and experiences. The CMVIS staff have been superbly helpful, cooperative and done more than their share to ensure that I was given every possible bit of understanding of the CMVIS project. My special thanks go to Mr. Lim, who as the project manager of the project answered the bulk of my questions, Mr. Loo and Mr. Sovanna, who took me on their trails to the provinces, and Handicap International Technical Advisors, Mr. Vannarin and Mr. Vuthy, whose insights into the project were invaluable. The CMVIS Data Gathers never tired of sharing their experience, whether this was in the field or in the PP office. This evaluation would not have reached to the same depths if it wasn’t for my assistant/interpreter/translator Ranine. Mr. Christian Provoost, who left his post at the end of January, set me off on the right track with his introduction to the project. The kind feedback from Mr. Bruno Leclerq, HI-B Country Director and various other staff at HI-B filled in the remaining gaps. The insights of many other people were solicited during this interview, including those of a variety of mine action agencies, the Cambodian Mine Action Authority and NGOs. Specifically, I want to thank Andy Kervell for sharing his wealth of understanding on how the CMVIS project could best meet the needs of the Mine Action Planning Units. Lastly, my thanks go the all the mine/UXO casualties we visited and whose welcoming smiles always made me feel at home.
