Hanoi Street sign Residents concerned over expansion of troubled Hanoi Road Wednesday, 18 February 2009 Written by Chhay Channyda The Phnom Penh Post Claims the road construction is far exceeding its original plans, eating up residents' land, with no compensation packages in place. RESIDENTS living in the vicinity of a municipal road expansion project in Sen Sok district (formerly Russei Keo district) claim they have been offered no compensation from City Hall, despite standing to lose houses and property to the construction project. Residents of Sen Sok's Phnom Penh Thmey and Teok Thla communes told the Post the Cambodia-Vietnam Friendship highway - more popularly known as Hanoi Road - is currently undergoing an expansion that residents say will see it nearly double in width along some sections of its length. "IF they takeup 15 meters, my house will be taken and I will have nowhere to live." Notices issued by Russei Keo district Governor Khlaing Huot in May and December asked residents living in the project area to move fences, houses and any street stalls to accommodate the road's expansion to a width of eight metres. But Phnom Penh Thmey resident Tey Narin said that the municipality had recently told residents to leave 15 metres clearance for the project. "The old road is already seven metres wide. If they want to expand it to eight metres, they will take only one metre more and my house will not be affected," he said. "But if they take up 15 metres, my house will be taken and I will have nowhere to live." He said that some families had already given up part of their land for the road expansion, but that others did not agree. "I will not remove until there is compensation," he said. Grand designs Kong Sambo, Phnom Penh Thmey commune deputy chief, said Tuesday that the 2008 notices were outdated, and that current plans aimed to expand the road "up to 30 metres in width", constituting 22 metres of road surface and eight metres for drainage systems. He said that the first kilometre of the four-kilometre expansion had alread been finished, and that people were happy with the results and willing to give up part of their land for the project. Kong Sambo added that only 30 houses were "partly affected", while three or four houses will be swallowed entirely because they sat on small plots close to the new road. "The project will affect people, but we have forwarded the matter to the municipality to find solutions for them," he said. But Sek Sovanna, a lawyer for the Community for Legal Education Centre (CLEC), which is representing the residents, said that as many as 90 houses along the road had been affected by the project, including concrete and wooden houses that some people have lived in since 1979. She said that the authorities' plans would have no effect on any residents' houses if they stuck to the original plans. "What they are implementing is over the limit of the project," she said. CLEC lawyers filed an injunction at the Municipal Court on Tuesday to halt the construction and file complaints to City Hall, but have not yet received a response, Sek Sovanna said.

READ THIS INCOMPLETE AFP REPORT, AND TELL US WHAT DO YOU THINK ? Tuesday, February 17, 2009 China aimed to ‘teach Vietnam a lesson’: Expert 2/17/2009 AFP HANOI: On February 17, 1979, after months of verbal and armed clashes, China launched a massive offensive against Vietnam to teach its communist ally “a lesson” for becoming too independent for Beijing’s liking. Known as the Third Indochina War, the roots of the brief but bloody conflict lay in the ideological rivalries between China and the Soviet Union. During the war against the United States, Moscow supplied Vietnam with vital military aid. After the end of that conflict, Sino-Vietnamese relations were further strengthened when Hanoi rejoined the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (Comecon), created by Moscow in 1949. Conversely, relations with China, which was establishing contacts with the United States, deteriorated further. Initially, the Chinese said their offensive was “limited” and not a claim on Vietnamese territory. Beijing’s declared objective was to punish Vietnam, whose troops had six weeks earlier invaded Cambodia to topple the Khmer Rouge regime of Pol Pot, who was supported by China. The invasion of Cambodia was the final straw for Beijing, which decided it was time to put back in its place a Vietnam which was increasingly defying China’s authority in the region and had repressed its ethnic Chinese Hoa community, analysts said. Beijing also believed Vietnam had shown a lack of gratitude for valuable Chinese support during the war against the French and at the start of the conflict with the Americans. Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping launched the Vietnam offensive “to teach them a ‘lesson’,” recalled Jean-Claude Pomonti, long-time regional correspondent for the French newspaper Le Monde. For China it was “a semi-success or semi-failure—the Vietnamese resisted well,” he said, but “it was no disgrace: Deng, who detested the Vietnamese, (meant to) put them on the right path.” “China wanted to attack us to force us to withdraw our troops from Cambodia,” said retired Vietnamese Lieutenant-General Vu Xuan Vinh. “But we were able to use many local forces. We did not fall into the trap.” The Chinese operation was preceded by an intense artillery bombardment against several locations along the 1,400km frontier between the two countries. Chinese troops then penetrated dozens of kilometres into northern Vietnam to take control of several towns, notably Lang Son, Cao Bang and Lao Cai, before withdrawing a month later on March 16. There is no reliable figure for the number of casualties, which varies according to source and country, but the war did claim tens of thousands of lives.
