Anti Eviction Activists Take Plea for Help to CPP
Phnom Penh’s anti eviction protesters yesterday staged a 100 strong demonstration outside the CPP Headquarters on Norodom Boulevard, calling for the ruling party to release a jailed community activist and help families acquire land titles. … They also requested that the government include 61 families left out of a plan that saw more than 600 other Boueng Kak families receive land titles last year, and ask that authorities finally demarcate the 12.44 square km area exempt from development. … Tep Vanny, one of the demonstrators, dismissed Mr. Saron’s claim that the CPP was powerless to help. …
