Law on Peaceful Assembly (the “Demonstration Law”)

31-Jul-2011

Publication : Factsheet

The Cambodian Center for Human Right (“CCHR”) has classified the Demonstration Law green on grounds of its (i) increased specificity with regard to notification requirements, (ii) the values it pushes forward relative to previous governing law, and(iii)the objective test in determining legality of peaceful demonstrations. However, CCHR has some concerns over the Demonstration Law’s current misuse and misinterpretation. Laws classified as green are acceptable as whole in the opinion of CCHR if implemented correctly.
