The international community should begin listening to those Cambodians who have
increasingly demanded the protection and promotion of their basic human rights.
Call for investigation
Ny Chakrya, the head of human rights and legal aid for domestic rights group Adhoc, said
Human Rights Watchs report was accurate in examining Hun Sens political past.
I agree with the reports findingsit shows serious human rights violations within the
past 30 years, he told RFA.
Ny Chakrya said human rights abuses are getting worse in Cambodia under Hun Sen,
adding that a crackdown by military police on a protest in January last year which left five
garment workers dead showed that government agents are not afraid to violate human
rights and kill in public.
The countrys leader must be held responsible for any unsolved systematic crimes,
because the culprits worked under his orders, he said.
Ny Chakra called on the government to investigate and bring closure to all the open cases
of crimes mentioned in the report in order to clear its reputation.
