Official trailer of "Cambodia For Sale", a documentary on and grabbing and evictions in Cambodia. For more check: www.cohre.org/cambodiaforsale
Cambodia today is changing rapidly at the cost of the poor urban communities. Spiralling landprices and largescale development projects result in landgrabbing and evictions throughout the country with methods becoming even more unethical. The trailer of "Cambodia For Sale" shows snapshots of members of the community Dey Krahorm in Phnom Penh's Tonle Bassac district, who have been fighting for their land rights and against massive eviction threats since 2006. Until today their struggle for a fair compensation continues.
