today releases a report titled “False Promises: Exploring the Citizenship Rights of the Khmer Krom in Cambodia” (the “Report”).The Report explores and analyzes the contradiction between the Royal Government of Cambodia’s (“RGC”) public confirmation that the ethnic Khmer from South Vietnam (the “Khmer Krom”) are Cambodian citizens, and the practical difficulties faced by the Khmer Krom who try to access the benefits of their Cambodian citizenship by applying for citizenship identity cards (“ID cards”) which are required to unlock the rights and benefits that are attached to citizenship/nationality such as employment, education, and property rights land rights.
