The Law on the Press 1995 (the “Press Law”)

09-Sep-2011

Publication : Press Release

The Cambodian Center for Human Rights (“CCHR”)has classified the Press Law yellow on the basis that it contains a number of positive provisions which, in theory, afford vital protection to those working in the media, yet some of its provisions are either vague, undefined or contradictory, and should therefore be reviewed and amended. First and foremost, any references to criminal law should be clarified for the benefit of the courts.
