U.S. Department of State 95/09/21 Testimony: Winston Lord on Cambodia Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs TESTIMONY BY WINSTON LORD ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF STATE FOR EAST ASIAN AND PACIFIC AFFAIRS BEFORE THE HOUSE SUBCOMMITTEE ON ASIA AND THE PACIFIC SEPTEMBER 21, 1995 CAMBODIA Mr. Chairman, Members of the Subcommittee, I welcome the opportunity to appear before you today to discuss the current situation in Cambodia. Today, September 21, Cambodians celebrate the second anniversary of the promulgation of their constitution, which established a multiparty democracy pledged to respect internationally recognized human rights. Cambodia embarked on the path to democracy with the signing of the Paris Peace Accords in 1991, which brought peace to the country after two decades of war and the brutal regime of the Khmer Rouge. The Cambodian people marked a new stage in their history with the country's first free and fair elections in May 1993, leading to the formation of the current coalition government. Last month Secretary Christopher travelled to Cambodia to underline America's support. He met with His Majesty King Norodom Sihanouk, senior government officials, and representatives of the coalition parties and human rights groups during his August 4 visit. He was encouraged by the progress which he witnessed on Cambodia's political and economic development, and he underscored our continuing commitment to that process. The international community, including the United States, recognizes its responsibilities for the reconciliation and reconstruction of Cambodia. In Phnom Penh, the Secretary signed agreements providing $12 million in technical assistance, including environmental assistance, money for political and economic reform, and programs aimed at family health and primary education, as well as $5.4 million in emergency food aid.

Participants agreed that, with the research done and reform program developed, now is the time for the Government to act decisively and implement reforms to decrease corruption, strengthen the rule of law, and build the institutions that will attract businesses and allow them to flourish in the global economy.

Where we work Cambodia RI's Concerns Refugees International has been involved with providing direct assistance to the Phnong, highland people who returned to their home in Mondulkiri province in 1999 after two decades in exile, and also monitors the situation of Montagnard refugees from the central highlands of Vietnam. Refugees International established a partnership with a Cambodian NGO, Cambodia Family Development Services (CFDS), to provide direct support to Phnong communities in Mondulkiri. RI channels foundation and private donor funds to CFDS, which in turn is organizing community economic development activities among the Phnong, as well as delivering World Program Food (WFP) assistance to needy families. This work will continue in 2004, though WFP has decided to discontinue its food aid program in Mondulkiri. RI is picking up the slack and providing financial assistance to CFDS to provide food support to especially vulnerable families. RI has been pivotal in getting the U.S. government to accept Montagnard refugees for resettlement in the U.S. Virtually all the Montagnards who were staying in a UNHCR safe house in the Cambodian capital have now come to the United States.

Search: Home About Us Donate Where We Work ... Contact Us Cambodia: Phnong Land Rights Under Threat Updated July 12 Phnong villagers in Cambodia’s isolated eastern province of Mondolkiri have mounted unprecedented public demonstrations to protest the Cambodian government’s grant of a 199,000 hectare pine tree concession to Wuzhishan LS Group, a company controlled by the Chinese government. The Phnong, a highland people numbering 35,000, accuse the company of encroaching on traditional burial land and a holy spirit forest, as well as using chemicals affecting the health of people and animals. The granting of such a large concession without consulting local people violates the Royal Government of Cambodia’s commitment to the donor community last December to impose a moratorium on such actions. 10,000 hectares within this concession have already been approved for development. Refugees International has learned from a senior Cambodian government official that the concession also encroaches on communities and land planned for inclusion in a large Japanese development project in Mondolkiri. Representatives of the Japanese government have asked Senior Minister Sok An, who is said to have negotiated the concession deal, for an explanation of the agreement, and have threatened to suspend their own project commitment if the concession development goes forward. Between the Phnong public protests and the Japanese government concern, the issue has become controversial enough to be addressed by Prime Minister Hun Sen, who will meet with donor representatives on June 30 in Phnom Penh.

1999 NCC News Archives Cambodian Government Honors CWS Dec. 22, 1999, NEW YORK CITY Twenty years ago, when Phnom Penh lay in ruins after years of war and Cambodian people were in the grip of widespread famine, representatives from several non-governmental agencies flew in to assess humanitarian needs. "There was no electricity and no water, and the relief workers fanned out in the city then got back on the plane to bring back reports to their agencies," recalled the Rev. Dr. Rodney Page, Executive Director of Church World Service (CWS), the relief and development arm of the National Council of Churches (NCC). "But one representative stayed behind and lived there for six months: Perry Smith of Church World Service and CWS is still there." Church World Service was among 10 NGOs honored at a ceremony held in The Chaktomuk Hall in Phnom Penh, Cambodia on November 18, during which Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Hun Sen highlighted the "close partnership and strong solidarity which exists between the Royal Government of Cambodia and the NGO community." In attendance were representatives from the 10 non-governmental organizations (NGOs), including Dr. Page, Ms. Linda Hartke and Mr. Howard Jost of Church World Service. Ms. Hartke served as CWS Country Director in Cambodia from 1992-1997 and is currently CWS Director of Programs and Operations. Mr. Jost is the current CWS Country Director in Cambodia.

68. Adoption Processing In Cambodia However, we have asked the cambodian government to stop issuing adoption decrees The cambodian government, in March 1999, received allegations of baby http://uscis.gov/graphics/publicaffairs/questsans/QAadopt.htm

February 7, 2002 Adoption Processing in Cambodia In December 2001, the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) suspended the processing of Cambodian orphan petitions. U.S. immigration law requires a petitioner to establish that a child meets a very specific legal definition of “orphan” before an adoption petition is approved. Due to the lack of systematic record keeping and to irregularities in documentation in Cambodia, INS and the Department of State (DOS) were unable to make that determination with any reasonable degree of certainty. The deficiencies in the Cambodian adoption process impede INS’ ability to determine that the prospective adoptive children have been made available for international adoption under circumstances that meet the requirements of U.S. immigration laws. An experienced team of high-level INS officials was dispatched to Cambodia in mid-January to assess the problems, to meet with Cambodian and DOS officials in Phnom Penh and to make recommendations to resolve the situation. Until the Cambodian government puts in place transparent and consistent adoption procedures, processing of orphan petitions is not possible. While we understand that this situation is difficult for prospective parents seeking to adopt in Cambodia, INS and the Department of State are working with Cambodian officials to improve the orphan petition process in order to protect the interest of Cambodian birth parents and children, as well as prospective U.S. adoptive parents. 1. Why did INS suspend the processing of orphan petitions in Cambodia?

10 January 2005 New Evidence of Torture, Mass Arrests of Montagnards Cambodia Slams Door on New Asylum Seekers Cambodia’s decision to close its northeastern border with Vietnam to halt the flow of Montagnard asylum seekers comes amidst alarming new reports of mass arrests, torture, and increasing persecution of Montagnard Christians in Vietnam's Central Highlands, Human Rights Watch said in a 25-page briefing paper released today. New testimony gathered by Human Rights Watch establishes the widespread and continued use of torture against activists, religious leaders, and individuals who have been deported or have voluntarily returned from Cambodia. On January 1, Cambodian National Police Chief Hok Lundy ordered authorities in the border province of Ratanakiri to increase the number of border police in order to prevent Montagnard asylum seekers from entering. "The authorities have to convince the local people to be our spies in order to report how many Montagnards [enter Cambodia], to arrest them and send them back to Vietnam," he said. "The Vietnamese government's mistreatment of Montagnards continues unabated," said Brad Adams, executive director of Human Rights Watch's Asia Division. "Instead of closing its borders to asylum seekers, the Cambodian government should be working with the United Nations refugee agency to provide sanctuary to people escaping torture and arbitrary arrest."

July 2002 From Conservation International Cambodian government creates 1,000,000-acre protected area Cardamom Mountains former home to Khmer Rouge July 30, 2002 (Washington D.C.) The Cambodian government announced today the creation of the Central Cardamoms Protected Forest, a 1,000,000-acre (402,000-hectare) area in southwestern Cambodia's Central Cardamom Mountains. The Cardamoms are home to most of Cambodia's large mammals and half of the country's birds, reptiles and amphibians. Two wildlife sanctuaries border the area, bringing the total land under protection to 2.44 million acres (990,000 hectares), forming the largest, most pristine wilderness in mainland Southeast Asia. The protected area was officially signed into law by Prime Minister Hun Sen. The declaration allows for the permanent protection of the Cardamoms. Government rangers, military police and community monitors are patrolling and enforcing forest and wildlife laws within the area. "This is a huge step forward for the protection of our country's amazing array of life," said Ty Sokhun, Director General of Cambodia's Department of Forestry and Wildlife. "Animals found virtually nowhere else in the world can thrive freely in our forests." The Cardamom Mountains are a high priority for conservationists. Rare species such as the Indochinese tiger, the Asian elephant and the Malaysian sun bear survive there, as do globally threatened species such as the pileated gibbon and the critically endangered Siamese crocodile, which has its only known wild breeding population in the Cardamoms.

CAMBODIA JURIST WORLD LAW >> Cambodia Human Rights Legal Profession Other Constitution of the Kingdom of Cambodia ... Council of Jurists The Royal Cambodian Government (RCG), a constitutional monarchy formed on the basis of elections internationally recognized as free and fair, was established on September 24, 1993. King Norodom Sihanouk remains the constitutional monarch and Head of State. Most power lies within the executive branch and, although its influence continues to grow within the coalition structure, the National Assembly does not provide a significant check to executive power. The Khmer Rouge no longer is a political or military threat. Source: U.S. Department of State Law on the Establishment of Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia for the Prosecution of Crimes Committed During the Period of Democratic Kampuchea [Khmer Rouge genocide court] Khmer Rouge Genocide Tribunal (Cambodian Genocide Program, Yale University) The Organization of the Courts (Kram - February 8, 1993) The Cambodian court system consists of lower courts, an appeals court, and a Supreme Court. The Constitution also mandates a Constitutional Council, which is empowered to review the constitutionality of laws, and a Supreme Council of the Magistracy, which appoints, oversees, and disciplines judges. The composition of both of these bodies is viewed widely as biased toward the CPP. There is a separate military court system. Trials are public. Defendants have the right to be present and to consult with an attorney, to confront and question witnesses against them, and to present witnesses and evidence on their own behalf. However, trials typically are perfunctory, and extensive cross examination usually does not take place. In 1998 the introduction of newly trained lawyers, many of whom received supplemental training by NGO's, resulted in significant improvements for those defendants provided with counsel, including a reduced pretrial detention period and improved access to bail; however, there remained a critical shortage of trained lawyers in most parts of the countryespecially outside Phnom Penh.

MEDIA RELEASE DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND TRADE AUSTRALIA 22 July 1998 CAMBODIA NUON PAET We categorically reject the suggestion broadcast on the ABC's Foreign Correspondent program on 21 July 1998 that the Australian Government is not doing enough to ensure that Nuon Paet, the Khmer Rouge commander believed to be responsible for David Wilson's death, is brought to trial. The Australian Government is deeply concerned by recent reports that Nuon Paet might be enjoying some form of protection in Cambodia, official or otherwise, as it has been previously when any such suggestions have arisen. As it has done on every such occasion, the Australian Government has again raised its serious concerns about this report with the Cambodian authorities in the context of commitments already secured from Cambodian leaders that Nuon Paet will be arrested. We are maintaining consistent pressure on the Cambodian Government, to make clear to all relevant Cambodian Government agencies their obligation with respect to the arrest of Nuon Paet.

Alexander Downer, MP MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS, AUSTRALIA Media Release FA108 - 20 July 2004 Australia Welcomes New Cambodian Government Australia welcomes the formation of a new Government in Cambodia on 15 July. This comes after a lengthy period of negotiation, following national elections in July 2003, to satisfy the constitutional requirement to secure a two-thirds majority in the National Assembly. I note Prime Minister Hun Sen's commitment of 6 July to make legislation to establish a Khmer Rouge Tribunal a top priority for the new Cambodian Government. Australia was the first country to make a funding commitment to the UN fund to support the tribunal and has recently doubled its financial commitment to $3 million over three years. I urge the Government to fulfil its commitment to the Khmer Rouge Tribunal quickly and pass other key legislation pending for the last 12 months such as WTO accession and legal and judicial reform packages. Australia and Cambodia will continue to cooperate strongly on transnational crime issues including the trafficking of women and children, people smuggling, and counter-terrorism.

The new programming plan is a breakthrough for the minority Cham people living in Cambodia. �We have three conditions attached to the airing of Cham broadcasts. � The Cham programming is not allowed to attack or insult any religion in Cambodia, it cannot incite race or religious discrimination, and it must be approved by the Ministry of Religion,� Ministry of Information Secretary Khieu Kanharith told RFA. He said any problems that arise will fall on the station manager and that there also must be a Khmer-language version of the Cham broadcasts for monitoring purposes. �Any activity to promote news and information to a remote area and to promote democracy is very good,� Heide Bronke, the U.S. Embassy spokeswoman in Phnom Penh, told RFA.

"We have sent a three-point peace proposal to the Phnom Penh government a few days ago and are optimistic the government will take it into consideration," Gen. Khem Ngun, commander of the Khmer Rouge guerrillas, told Reuters in a telephone interview from his jungle base near Anlong Veng in northern Cambodia. "Our first condition is to bring about national reconciliation where all parties announce an end to war which no one has won, no one has lost," he said. "...A national government should be formed to run the country during the transitional period. After that a general election should be organized under U.N. supervision." Elections are already scheduled for July. Khem Ngun said he was the new military commander of the Khmer Rouge hard-liners, replacing Ta Mok who had retired, and he said the group had changed its name to the National Solidarity Party.
