People Arrested in Svay Rieng in Economic Land Concession
The Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association (ADHOC) would like to express our dissatisfaction for the unjust measure taken by first instance provincial court in Svay Rieng that arrested one village representative, Mr. Yea Yeng and sent him to prison. Not only that, the court continues to try to arrest other 15 villagers on criminal charges related to the Economic Land Concession dispute between the rubber plantation company, Peam Chaing, and 5 villages.

Competitive Vote Would Improve Membership
The election results for the 14 new Human Rights Council members were largely a foregone conclusion, as all five UN geographical regions for the first time put forward slates in which the number of candidates equaled the number of seats allotted to the region. The council elections have become a pre-cooked process that strips the meaning from the membership standards established by the General Assembly, said Peggy Hicks, global advocacy director at Human Rights Watch. States serious about the role the council can play in promoting human rights should push for competitive slates in all regions, and should be willing to compete for a seat themselves.

Civil Society Expresses Concerns over Unlawful Grants of Economic Land Concession
We, the Coalitions of Civil Society Organizations which are comprised of the Cambodian Human Rights Action Committee (CHRAC), The NGO Forum on Cambodia (NGO Forum) and The Housing Rights Task Force (HRTF), would like to express our strong disappointment and concern at the Royal Government of Cambodia that has so far granted a lot of economic land concessions to a number of private companies inconsistent with Cambodian Land Law and its Sub‐Decree on Economic Land Concessions No. 146.
