Advisory services and technical cooperation in the field of human rights
During his first mission to Cambodia as Special Representative, from 28 November to 5 December 2005, Yash Ghai gave particular attention to the Constitution of Cambodia, the justice sector and the rule of law, and to freedoms of association, assembly and expression. He found a deteriorating environment for democratic participation and practice.
