November 6, 2005 Though its bitter image has been internally and globally brainwashed, Cambodia does need and always needs to proceed further. But why Cambodia is flowing on the destitute side of the prosperous ocean of materialism? Resurgent Cambodia, for me, does need cooperation, solidarity and integrity from both the neighbors and the world. But one reason, I have found why Cambodia is lacking behind other regional countries and other countries in term of foreign direct investment, diplomacy, inter-state trades and other kinds of grouping, is that Cambodia does not have enough court to settle all kinds of problem. Currently, we have only one court that settles all kinds of dispute (except the military court). How can one court be able to settle all kinds of problem? Can one person be expert in all fields, and can we trust that the justice does prevail when one judge decide all matters? This article is not to criticize, but to improve, as well as the lesson for the world. Indeed, Cambodia, a new country in the global map, but not new in reference to the world's history, does need solid justice system to guarantee the stability of the entire country. This stability will be prevailed, in my view, when justice is at least acceptably satisfied to the people. And how to make justice prevailed? Willingness of the government is the very initiative for every public good. |
