Phnom Preuk District, Oda Commune

                 

And so it begins again.

The government has given away 4,000 hectares of land in the Phnom Preuk District, Oda Commune in Battambang.  A villager was attacked by the army as he tried to stop the development company officials measuring the villagers plots of land that they are stealing.  The disregard for Cambodians basic human rights is so blatant that sometimes it’s almost farcical.  Like someone coming into your home and measuring your bathroom to see what they will be doing with it after they steal it from you.  And there is nothing you can do to stop them. 

When will the government stop selling their peoples land to billion dollar corporations?  Read about it here.

In other news, Monash uni just inherited the King (father) Norodom Sihanouk’s personal archives.  So you can go and read his personal documents or just chill out to some kingly jams.
