Dear all,

The Cambodian Center for Human Rights ("CCHR") has been asked to forward the attached petition that has been drafted by Stop Violence Cambodia, a local youth group. The petition calls on the Royal Government of Cambodia (the "RGC") to take immediate action in order to bring about peaceful resolutions to the ongoing land conflicts in Cambodia.

Please also find attached an invitation to a press conference that will be held by Stop Violence Cambodia at 9 am on 1 June 2012 at Baitong Restaurant, Phnom Penh.

Best regards,

CCHR

Dear all,

The continuing problem of land evictions and the violent response by local authorities against protesters and communities who are only advocating for their rights to be respected shall no be longer tolerated. These issues would have better results if the authorities focused on peaceful settlements and adhered to human rights principles in the interests of their citizens and in the interests of establishing a country that observes the rule of law.

We, the undersigned group and ordinary citizens; therefore, organize the petition which are available to be sign online (http://www.change.org/petitions/cambodian-government-stop-violent-response-but-peaceful-resolution-on-ongoing-land-conflicts#) would like to invite all of you you join signing this petition in calling on our Cambodian government for the end of violent response but peaceful resolution on ongoing land conflicts.
