CCHR’S Key Concerns and Recommendation Concerning the Draft Law on Association and Non-Governmental Organization
This analysis is written by the Cambodian Center for Human Rights (“CCHR”), a non-political, independent, non-governmental organization that works to promote and protect democracy and respect for human rights – primarily civil and political rights – throughout the Kingdom of Cambodia (“Cambodia”). The purpose of this analysis is to take a thematic approach in voicing CCHR’s key concerns and recommendations with respect to the draft law on associations and non-governmental organizations (the “Law”). This analysis is available to CCHR’s friends and partners for review and discussion. A more detailed article-by-article analysis of the Law will follow in early January. This analysis has been based upon the Law circulated by the Ministry of Interior (the “MOI”) on 15 December 2010.
