Battambang, Phnom Preuk District, Oda Commune
Today, a villager was wounded by soldiers who are protecting the company and officials who are measuring people's plots of land without their consent.
The battle with the company that has received 4,000 hectares of land by the government has finally come to injuries.
Over 30 villagers walked the long distance through rice fields to the provincial town this morning, to avoid being stopped by local authorities. More will gather in front of the provincial office.
The wounded villager is under the care of Battambang medical staff with legal support from ADHOC, a local human rights organization.
What will stop Prime Minister Hun Sen from giving away land to companies?
When all Cambodia land is gone?
