The appointment of Cambodia to 21 ° Century

The Paris Conference on Cambodia Cambodian people brought a new stage of reconstruction. This conference resulted in the signing of an agreement to the Comprehensive Political Settlement of the Cambodia Conflict (21-23 October 1991). Free elections, conducted May 20, 1993 later resulted in the adoption of a new Constitution of the Kingdom of Cambodia. All legal instruments, both national and international put in place for the operation of a new State of Cambodia, already a member of the UN. The government of a new Cambodia would then align with respects international conventions signed at the UN membership. It should open the folder crimes violations of human rights and crimes against humanity during the years of the administration of the country by the leaders of Democratic Kampuchea.

A criminal court had been mixed managed criminal leaders of this regime. Internationally, Cambodia registered the association of nations of Southeast Asia (English: ASEAN), was speaking on behalf of the association. It is in the context of ASEAN that we will bring this analysis.

Cambodia's entry into the ASEAN identity and sovereignty of the people. - (See: monographic study of the maritime Cambodia). Associations of the states of Southeast Asia is ASEAN. Geographically, ASEAN has an area of 4,479,210.5 km2 and a population of 601 million inhabitants (2010). ASAEN is a geo-political and economic organization of ten countries located in Southeast Asia, which was formed on 8 August 1967

by Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. Since then, membership has expanded to include Brunei, Burma (Myanmar) , Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam. Its aims include accelerating economic growth, social progress, cultural development among its members, protection of regional peace and stability, and opportunities for member countries to discuss differences peacefully.

ASEAN covers a land area of 4.46 million km², which is 3% of the total land area of Earth, and has a population of approximately 600 million people, which is 8.8% of the world's population. The sea area of ASEAN is about three times larger than its land counterpart. In 2010, its combined nominal GDP had grown to US$1.8 trillion. If ASEAN were a single entity, it would rank as the ninth largest economy in the world, behind the United States, China, Japan, Germany, France, Brazil , the United Kingdom, and Italy .

On 28 July 1995, Vietnam became the seventh member. Laos and Myanmar (Burma) joined two years later on 23 July 1997. Cambodia was to have joined together with Laos and Burma, but was deferred due to the country's internal political struggle. The Cambodia later joined on 30 April 1999, following the stabilisation of its government.

Cambodia to be a member of ASEAN, does not mean the loss of national identity and of the territories. Referring programs offered under the ASEAN programs mentioned above are not clearly mentioned in this Association, and yet many cases disputes were raised in disputes in the maritime areas between China and Vietnam.

These difficulties continue to worsen again. Information and case studies provide a unique maritime dispute in the doamine between the two countries above, and tends to show that a block of ASEAN - in solidarity in economic development - ie equivalent stay behind Vietnam, to help find a solution in the areas martimes. A total oblivion moved within ASEAN, the solutions were never clarified within ASEAN, the case of my country - admitted April 30, 1999, but ten years ago, my country was the satellite Vietnam, bridgehead bridge marxste-Leninist ideology before the conquest of Southeast Asia. El the people did not want.

And also the land borders were never resolved; through maritime space, the ASEAN members wore their diférends on the islands before the Internatioanl Court of Justice. ( Case concerning sovereignty

And about Cambodia, which nobody cares about, despite the accession of Cambodia to ASEAN, they are land and maritime borders of the country.

The case of Koh Trâl.

It is today that we will develop the discussion at the meeting.

-Periods of colonization and the Protectorate were social reforms and influence the barbarity of occupants in Khmer provinces of Cochinchina [see surveys by the colonial physician Dr. A. Pannetier "At the heart of the Khmer Country" (Edition Payot, 1921) and the Khmer young occupants buried alive with their heads media used to make tea.]

-Since the end of the Second World War until the start of the Armed Forces of the United States in 1975, no serious regulation at the international level exsitait between the two countries, but talks at ministerial level (1974). -Since 1975, the organization of assassination nationally practiced in Cambodia, and the same phenomenon continued to practice this policy now, but in other ways diferent (examples: killing opponents, family travel netières, etc.).

- Established peace in Cambodia, according to the principles and conventions "Rights of Man" reigned in Cambodia. A mixed tribunal (Cambodian and UN) agrees to apply the laws to punish leaders of the Democratic Kampuchea regime and it is unthinkable to be blind, and hearing nothing but manifestations of workers and torture that took place in two steps between the International Criminal Court and textile mills are aprcues as faults or crimes listed conventions of Human Rights, signed by the members of the UN. -Should extend these applications to Khmer leaders who use the barbarism in this country. Bring down dictators in Africa, the Middle East, and Cambodia ? ... ..

B - issues of Cambodia in the regionalization of Southeast Asia.

Today, China is facing the United States of America, as mentioned "But ... the United States will continue well because it fits into their strategic interests in the region to play a role of great power. On the one hand, China can accept such a presence would be limited to the economy, diplomacy and culture. However, when this presence is shown as politics, military and more, it irritates more Beijing. However, even if under the guise of "peaceful development", Beijing offers economic cooperation programs with attractive appearance with its neighbors in South-East Asia, they dread the emergence of China and fear of losing a significant part of their political freedom.

This is why the fact that the United States show a renewed interest in the region and reassure these countries appears to be a stabilizing factor, which may help to maintain a balance with China. Of course, Beijing protested against this trend, using a speech designed to foment distrust Asian states toward Washington. ".

In the field of economic development –

« This rapprochement with the US has been taking place in the context of potential divisions within ASEAN. Indeed, forms of de facto economic regionalisation based on China-led production chains and industrial cooperation mechanisms could potentially have the effect of dividing ASEAN between its mainland members and its island members. Propelled by the Chinese government, and with the support of the (Japanese-led and partly Western-financed) Asian Development Bank (ADB), the Greater Mekong Sub-Region has become the most dynamic part of Southeast Asia. Nominally its membership includes Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar, as well as the two southern Chinese provinces of Yunnan and Guangxi.

The ADB alone has contributed a third of the approximately USD11 billion of infrastructure investment since 2000, the lion’s share of the remainder coming from China. In Myanmar alone in 2010, the Chinese invested some USD8 billion in oil, gas and hydropower and agreed to USD80 billion in investment projects in Cambodia. These forms of economic integration on the ground will see mainland Southeast Asia, along with Yunnan and Guangxi, served by a Chinese sponsored, integrated network of high-speed rail networks, pipelines and highways by 2020.Following the China–ASEAN free trade agreement that came into force in January 2010, which in reality involves individual agreements with ASEAN members, it is not unreasonable to see these developments, clearly related to China’s rise, as being harbingers of future divisions within ASEAN. (Regionalism in Asia as Disguised Multilateralism: A Critical Analysis of the East Asia Summit and the Trans-Pacific Partnership by David Camroux, Sciences Po (CERI), Paris, Le 04 Avril 2012, in, The International Spectator: Italian Journal of International Affairs.).

Conclusion. This is an effort to recover Cambodian each value "Khmer society" steeped in a land that is hers, and witnessed by countless monuments of the past.

The efforts of each individual could escape the examples that were mentioned in the history of peoples disappeared (Champa, our neighbor), and today the Kurds (despite international treaties - the Treaty of Sèvres of 1920) does rise again, yet there were people who managed to create by his efforts, endurance and tenacity, the State of Israel in 1946. If their efforts and solidarity abandoned Cambodians would experience the same fate as the people - "Gypsies Khmer" - which would be released around the capitals of the ASEAN countries.

The economic development of this region is being realized on the space of immersed areas where the Mekong (see photo).
