Tue, 16 March 2021
The Kampot Provincial Administration has issued a letter instructing the So Nguon Group to suspend its clearing activities on disputed land in Dom Phdao village of Chhouk district’s Trapaing Phlaing commune.
The dispute over the lands is between the company and former soldiers at the Coastal Island Defense Command.
Provincial governor Cheav Tay said that a representative of the Coastal Island Defense Command had sought an intervention from him on March 15 to stop the company from bulldozing the land and demarcating a boundary before a peaceful solution is reached.
