Dear friends,

sharing this excellent video on the struggle of the Boeung Kak community in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, especially the 15 that were arrested and convicted in the course of the struggle.

The brave and tireless campaign of the community working together with friends around the world led to the eventual release of the 15 on June 27. You will also find the theme song of the May 18 people's uprising in South Korea for democracy in 1980 was sang by the peoples in Cambodia, in Khmer language.

Thanks to LICADHO for sharing this.

in solidarity,
Yap
