(Cover photo) Aer Vietnamese forces entered Cambodia in 1979, many Khmer Rouge forces scaered to the jungles, mountains, and border areas. Mountain 1003 was a prominent Khmer Rouge military base located within the Dangrek Mountains along the Cambodian-Thai border, not far from Anlong Veng. From this military base, the Khmer Rouge re-organized and prepared for the long struggle against Vietnamese and the People’s Republic of Kampuchea government forces. Eventually, it was from this base, Khmer Rouge forces would re-conquer and sele Anlong Veng in early 1990 (and a number of other locations) until their re-integration into Cambodian society in late 1998. In many ways, life in Anlong Veng was as difficult and dangerous as it was in Mountain 1003. As one of the KR strongholds, Anlong Veng served as one of the key launching points for Khmer Rouge guerrilla operations in Cambodia, and it was subject to constant aacks by Cambodian government forces. Despite the perilous circumstances and harsh environment, the people who lived in Anlong Veng endeavored, whenever possible, to re-connect with and maintain their rich cultural heritage. Tossed from the seat of power in 1979, the Khmer Rouge were unable to sustain their rigid ideo- logical policies, particularly as it related to community and family life.

    Court Hears Another Day of Split Testimony By Erica Embree, JD/LLM (International Human Rights) candidate, Class of 2015, Northwestern University School of Law On Wednesday, August 8, 2012, the Trial Chamber continued hearing the testimony of two intellectuals who returned to Cambodia during the Democratic Kampuchea period in Case 002 against accused Nuon Chea, Khieu Samphan, and Ieng Sary at the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC). Witness Suong Sikoeun was examined by counsel for the civil parties, a member of the bench, and Khieu Samphan’s defense team in the morning, while witness Ong Thong Hoeung was examined by the prosecution in the afternoon. All parties were present in the courtroom, except Ieng Sary, who was in his holding cell. Trial Chamber Nil Nonn granted Ieng Sary’s request to follow the day’s proceedings from his holding cell due to his health issues. After court was called to order, President Nonn began the day by addressing a request by Nuon Chea’s defense team to submit new documents to be used during the examination of a witness. President Nonn stressed that applications under Rule 87.4 have to be timely, explaining that a document related to a particular witness has to be filed two weeks before the witness starts testifying. President Nonn noted that the defense’s request was filed less than a week in advance of the witness’s scheduled testimony. After stating that Nuon Chea’s team did not provide enough information for the Chamber to judge whether the request could have been discovered earlier, President Nonn denied their request.

    Norodom Sihanuk (Preah Bat Samdech Preah NorodomSihanuk Varman) Camboya, Rey (2º ejercicio); ex jefe del Estado; ex primer ministro Duración del mandato: 24 de Septiembre de 1993 - de de Nacimiento: Phnom Penh, 31 de Octubre de 1922 Defunción: Beijing, China, 15 de Octubre de 2012</p> ResumenEl hijo único de los entonces príncipes Norodom Suramarit y Sisovath Monivong Kossomak Nearireath (si bien el primero tuvo después tres vástagos más, dos chicos y una chica, con otras dos esposas), recibió la formación primaria en la Escuela François Baudouin de Phnom Penh y la secundaria en el Liceo Chasseloup-Laubat de Saigón. Siendo ya rey, entre 1946 y 1948 hizo la instrucción militar en el arma de caballería en Francia en las academias de Saumur y Saint-Cyr. http://www.cidob.org 1 of 7 BiografíaCuando su abuelo materno, el rey Sisovath Monivong, falleció el 23 de abril de 1941, el Consejo de la Corona, aleccionado por las autoridades coloniales francesas (leales al Gobierno proalemán de Vichy), le designó nuevo ocupante del trono de Camboya por delante del candidato natural, el príncipe Sisovath Monireth, mayor de los vástagos del rey muerto y tío del joven, quien parecía menos maleable a los intereses franceses. A punto de cumplir los 19 años, Sihanuk fue coronado solemnemente el 28 de octubre. En un principio, el joven rey se destacó fundamentalmente por su estilo de vida hedonista. Monarca multifacético e inteligente, afable de trato y refinado de gustos, se entregó a actividades tan diversas como el periodismo, la poesía, la música, la coreografía de jazz y la experiencia contemplativa monacal, convirtiendo la corte en palestra de sus aficiones artísticas.

When we Khmer victims think back of the glorious pasts, which it makes us all feeling so extremely Nostalgia for a tiny Present-Cambodia, has been brutally raped repeatedly by Khmers’ 6-Formidable-Canerous-old-Century Hereditary- Enemies-the fugitives of Mongols, Siamese in the West; and the prisoners of Mongols, Yuonese in the East. The biggest blot by the French during their ninety years’ control was their failure to educate the Cambodians. As the French ran all three Indochinese colonies from the Vietnamese cities of Hanoi and Saigon/Prey Nokor, they concentrated on educating the Vietnamese and training them to be officials for not only Vietnam but also Cambodia and Laos. And the French colonialism had also committed so much brutal crime against Khmers during their Reign of Terror from 1863 to 1954 by having inhumane conspiracies with Vietnamese to kill too many Khmer nationalists and compatriots. It greatly angered Cambodians to have Vietnamese officials running Cambodia’s administration; also the open border between Cambodia and Vietnam that many hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese settlers moved into Cambodia, particularly to the fertile area around the Tonle Sap Lake.
