UN Plans Joint War Crimes Tribunal for Khmer Rouge By Philip Shenon New York Times August 12, 1999 The United Nations has developed detailed plans for a joint war crimes tribunal in Cambodia in which Cambodian and foreign judges would try former political and military leaders of the Khmer Rouge in a single trial, U.N. and Clinton administration officials said Wednesday. U.N. lawyers came up with the plan after the Cambodian government rejected an earlier proposal to try Pol Pot's former associates in a fully independent international tribunal like those created to deal with war crimes in the Balkans and Rwanda. According to internal U.N. documents proposing the joint tribunal, Secretary-General Kofi Annan would select an independent prosecutor and the international judges, while the Cambodian government would select the Cambodian judges. Under the U.N. plan, the court would have either five judges, two of them Cambodian, or seven judges, three of them Cambodian a composition insuring that the Cambodian judges could always be outvoted by their foreign counterparts. Prime Minister Hun Sen is likely to resist some elements of the U.N. plan, especially the requirement that foreign judges outnumber Cambodian judges. His foreign minister, Hor Nam Hong, said Wednesday in parliament that the government would reject such a provision. The documents, prepared by Ralph Zacklin, assistant secretary-general for legal affairs, call for a single joint trial of all the Khmer Rouge leaders who remain in Cambodia, a prosecutorial strategy that is "the one likely to have the most profound moral and educational effect on the Cambodian society."

No Justice For Victims Of The Khmer Rouge - Global Policy Forum - International after more than four years of talks, the United Nations secretarygeneral decidedto withdraw from negotiations with the cambodian government on establishment http://www.globalpolicy.org/intljustice/tribunals/2002/0619just.htm

No Justice for Victims of the Khmer Rouge By Hans Corell International Herald Tribune June 19, 2002 The International Criminal Court will soon come into being. A new system of international criminal justice, more than 50 years in gestation, will become a reality. Those who commit genocide and war crimes will no longer be able to bank on impunity. So it may seem strange that in February, after more than four years of talks, the United Nations secretary-general decided to withdraw from negotiations with the Cambodian government on establishment of a court to try the leaders of the Khmer Rouge regime. At the outset of our discussions, the United Nations had suggested that an independent international court be established to try the Khmer Rouge leaders. When it became clear that this was not acceptable to the Cambodian government, the issue became whether the UN could participate in a national court as envisaged by the government, and under what conditions. When, after a long negotiation process, it appeared that the UN was being asked to be part of a court that would fall short of necessary international standards of independence, impartiality and objectivity, the secretary-general decided to end UN participation. He reached this decision because he strongly believes that the UN should not be part of a court that would fail to provide victims of the Khmer Rouge with the credible justice they deserve. In addition, UN affiliation to such a court could set a precedent for lowering international standards.

Five years of wrangling gave way on Monday to a deal which is expected to be ratified soon by Cambodia's parliament and the UN General Assembly. If the world body quickly allocates funding, a panel of Cambodian and international judges could begin work next year. Foreign observers believe the tribunal will not be able to properly achieve its aim of atoning Cambodians for the brutality of four years of Khmer Rouge rule during which up to two million people perished. Some suggested justice would be hampered by the Cambodian government's use of the court to win foreign economic aid and that its judges would fail to act impartially. But Cambodians spoken to yesterday were not so sceptical. The director of the non-government Document Centre of Cambodia, Youk Chhang, said the tribunal was about creating a rule of law in Cambodia and creating an atmosphere of reconciliation.

Gambling tycoons Kok Ahn and Pad Supapa contributed to Monday's payment to hasten diplomatic normalisation and revive their business fortunes, the Bangkok Post reported, citing a Thai military intelligence source. The two men, who own casinos in the town of Poipet on the Thai-Cambodian border, have seen their earnings plummet following the orgy of anti-Thai violence in Phnom Penh on January 29, it said. The riots, which were sparked by unsubstantiated reports that a Thai actress claimed the Angkor temples belonged to Thailand, led to a crisis in bilateral ties and a closure of border checkpoints. The intelligence source said the two casino operators were famous for their fabulous wealth and close ties with Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen.

An estimated 1,7 million Cambodians died during the Khmer Rouge rule from 1975 to 1979 in the so called “killing fields”, but none of those held responsible has ever faced trial. The Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot is dead, but many of his lieutnants are alive and free in Cambodia. In an attempt to strengthen his control of Cambodian politics Prime Minister Hun Sen has cut deals that effectively give the top Khmer Rouge officials Ieng Sary, Nuon Chea and Khieu Sampan immunity in exchange for their loyality. The sole high ranking Khmer Rouge official in prison, Ta Mok, who has been charged by a military court with genocide in September 1999, earned the Prime Minister’s anger because he organised until his arrest the military resistance of the last Khmer Rouge forces.

Cambodian government agrees to delay "embarrassing" Khmer Rouge trial AFP, August 3, 1999 PHNOM PENH, Aug 3 (AFP) - Cambodia's government agreed Tuesday to keep the lid on potentially embarrassing courtroom revelations of captured Khmer Rouge chief Ta Mok by extending his detention without trial for three years, officials said. "We agreed to propose a draft law extending the detention period up to three years," announced Monh Saphan, an MP for the royalist and coalition government member party FUNCINPEC. The controversial new law, scheduled to be voted on next week in what should be a formality, applies to those charged with involvement in "genocide, crimes against humanity or war crimes." It also comes despite the announcement from court officials that the 73 year-old Ta Mok, dubbed "The Butcher", was ready to be put on trial in three weeks. Under existing law he must face trial before early September, six months after he was arrested on March 6 and charged with treason, but he now looks set to remain languishing in silence and out of sight for years. "This law is to legally detain the criminal and wait for the formation of a mixed court," argued Monh Saphan, referring to a proposed "international style" tribunal preparations for which have so far been extremely slow.

AMBASSADOR'S CHAT September 14, 2001 Hello, everyone! Thank you for opening our website and this page in particular. I have been in Cambodia for 9 months now. I find my job interesting and have been enjoying my life here tremendously.‚ham beginning to feel like telling my impressions and observations I happen to have from time to time to some other people and that is why I decided to create this column to share my thoughts rather casually and in an informal manner with you. I do hope this is of some interest to you. ABOUT MY DAILY LIFE Since this is my first appearance in this page, let me tell you what I normally do as Ambassador of Japan in Cambodia. Well, perhaps the largest portion of my work here consists of activities related to our economic assistance to Cambodia. On Augast21, I signed an Exchange of Note with H.E. Mr. Hor Nam Hong, which will provide scholarship to 20 young Cambodian Government officials engaged in development work to study in Japanese universities. This is a new scholarship program started last year for Cambodia. Speaking of scholarship, we have also traditional Japanese Government Scholarship program that offers scholarship opportunities for about thirty young Cambodian students every year. A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to interview a dozen of candidates for undergraduate studies in Japan and I was very impressed by the strong desire and enthusiasms of the young Cambodian students to work for the reconstruction of their country. I felt happy that my Government are able to help these young future leaders study in Japan.

Presbyterian News Service 27 January 2000 Cambodian Government Honors Church World Service by Wendy S. McDowell National Council of Churches News Office NEW YORK CITY– Twenty years ago, when Phnom Penh lay in ruins after years of war and Cambodian people were in the grip of widespread famine, representatives from several non-governmental agencies flew in to assess humanitarian needs. “There was no electricity and no water, and the relief workers fanned out in the city then got back on the plane to bring back reports to their agencies,” recalled the Rev. Rodney Page, executive director of Church World Service (CWS), the relief and development arm of the National Council of Churches (NCC). “But one representative stayed behind and lived there for six months: Perry Smith of Church World Service and CWS is still there.” Church World Service was among 10 Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) honored at a ceremony held in The Chaktomuk Hall in Phnom Penh, Cambodia on Nov.18, during which Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Hun Sen highlighted the “close partnership and strong solidarity which exists between the Royal Government of Cambodia and the NGO community.” In attendance were representatives from the 10 NGOs, including Page, Linda Hartke and Howard Jost of Church World Service. Hartke served as CWS country director in Cambodia from 1992-1997 and is currently CWS director of programs and operations. Jost is the current CWS country director in Cambodia.

back to headlines COMMENT Rainsy and rights groups stymie KR trial Photo: Caught in the middle: Prime Minister Hun Sen stuck in a "no-win" situation? Former Australian Ambassador to Cambodia Tony Kevin , currently a Visiting Fellow at the Australian National University, Canberra, offers his thoughts on the proposals for trying former Khmer Rouge leaders. ALITTLE-NOTICED but important diplomatic game is soon to come to a head. It concerns the conduct of genocide trials in Cambodia for surviving leaders of the 1975-79 Khmer Rouge regime: Ta Mok, "Duch" (commandant of the infamous Toul Sleng prison), both under arrest in Phnom Penh, and possibly others still at liberty (Khieu Samphan, Noun Chea and Ieng Sary). This issue is complicated by the hostility towards Hun Sen's Cambodian Government by opposition leader Sam Rainsy and his powerful international backers in Washington. Hun Sen's opponents are skilfully exploiting the Khmer Rouge leadership trials issue as a vehicle to discredit the Cambodian government internationally. In summary, they have used the dialogue between Cambodia and the international community, on modalities for United Nations assistance to help Cambodia conduct these trials, as an opportunity to persuade senior United Nations staff to adopt a no-compromise stance that leaves the Cambodian Government in an impossible situation. In so doing, they risk aborting the whole trial process. Three weeks ago, surprisingly, the US State Department proposed a compromise solution between the Cambodian and UN positions that would break the impasse. Hun Sen immediately supported it. But within days, a major human rights group in Washington attacked the proposed compromise. The UN has yet to comment. Kofi Annan will have to take some hard decisions soon.

back to headlines COMMENT Cambodian lawyers united for UN trial With negotiations on the fate of a trial for former Khmer Rouge leaders heating up, the three groups representing Cambodian lawyers , The Bar Association of the Kingdom of Cambodia, The Cambodian Defenders Project and Legal Aid of Cambodia , have jointly made a stinging attack on judicial independence in Cambodia. The following is their public statement on their position regarding the make-up of a court for any KR trial. BASED on our daily experience in Cambodia's courts, we, the legal aid organizations of Cambodia, believe that judicial independence in trials for former Khmer Rouge leaders can only be achieved if all court officials are appointed by a neutral body. The Cambodian government has demonstrated, through pervasive political interference in its own judiciary, that it cannot ensure such neutrality. The United Nations is best suited for this responsibility. Interference in the Judiciary by the Cambodian Government Political interference in judicial functions is standard practice in Cambodia. The Executive branch of government and political parties commonly appoint, promote and discipline judges. In the past, they have used this power for influence.

Chronology of Cambodian History Telegram From the Department of State to the Embassy in Australia Washington, March 24, 1967, 10:27 a.m. 161744. 1. Please deliver following personal message from the Secretary to Foreign Minister Hasluck at earliest possible opportunity: "Dear Paul: I very much hope that Prime Minister Holt, during his forthcoming visit to Phnom Penh, will have the opportunity to discuss with Cambodian leaders including Prince Sihanouk the possibilities for an improvement in U.S.-Cambodian relations. We are concerned, as I am sure you are too, at the increasing seriousness of military problems resulting from Viet Cong and North Vietnamese use of Cambodian territory and support received from Cambodia. The number of recent incidents that have arisen as a result of Operation Junction City testify to the seriousness of this situation, which we fear will only lead to a further deterioration in relations with Cambodia unless some way is found to reduce the problem and deal with it more effectively than at the present time. Communist Vietnamese forces have been using Cambodia as an infiltration route, sanctuary and source of supplies since the early 1960s. With the escalation of hostilities in the past few years, Communist utilization of Cambodia has steadily increased. There is every reason to believe, moreover, that during the coming year, as allied forces successfully clear enemy base areas in South Vietnam, pressure upon North Vietnam and the Viet Cong to expand their use of the sanctuary existing in Cambodia will further increase.
