CAMBODIA NOT FULFILLING HER INTERNATIONAL DUTIES

(Clearwisdom.net) Since the beginning of August 2002, [...] events related to human rights have occurred in Cambodia, which show that Cambodia is not fulfilling her international responsibilities properly:

[...]

The deportation to China of two Chinese members of the Falun Gong spiritual movement who were also under the protection of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, in defiance of Cambodia's obligations contracted under the international covenant on refugees.

The above-mentioned [event shows] clearly that the Cambodian government does not adhere to the international covenants on refugees it has signed and promised to respect. We strongly condemn this irresponsible attitude of the Cambodian government that constitutes a significant step backward for human rights in Cambodia.
