Fact Sheet: Case Study Series: Preah Vihear Temple
The temple of Preah Vihear and surrounding areas have been at the center of a century-‐ old dispute between Cambodia and Thailand, with both sides hotly contesting sovereignty of the territory. The award of World Heritage status to the temple in 2008 exacerbated tensions, leading to continual outbreaks of violence from October 2008. A recent interpretation of the 1962 International Court of Justice (the “ICJ”) judgment by the ICJ has now created a demilitarized zone around Preah Vihear temple, but a permanent solution to the wider border conflict is essential.

NGO Joint Statistics Database Report on Sexual Trafficking, Exploitation and Rape in Cambodia 2010
This report is the result of data collected as part of the NGO joint statistics project from 39 NGOs, and collated by ECPAT Cambodia from January – December 2010.

It can, however, offer interesting insights into the profile of victims and trends over time, which can be used for advocacy, and to inform policy and practice. In total 39 victims of sexual trafficking and 539 victims of rape were reported by participating NGOs in 2010. A further 43 victims of suspected cases of sexual trafficking were identified, but as they failed to meet ECPAT’s assessment criteria, they have been included in a separate section on sexual exploitation.
