Government to re-examine traffic law
Following a troubled rollout of the 1 January Traffic Law, the Cambodian government announced on 10 January in a press conference that an inter-ministerial team has been established to determine what amendments will be made in reaction to widespread criticism from the public and civil society.
Addressing the media on 10 January, the director of the Ministry of Interior’s land traffic department, Hem Yan, said that Interior Minister Sar Kheng, who chairs the National Road Safety Committee, would convene a meeting between the ministries of Interior, Justice, Industry, Economy and Transportation on 12 January.
