Study Exposes Abuse of Trans Cambodians
Study Exposes Abuse of Trans Cambodians
by Michael Dickison | September 22, 2016 | អានជាភាសាខ្មែរ
Two weeks ago, a small group of transgender women were sitting on the riverfront in Siem Reap City when a group of police officers arrived and told them to get up and go away. It was an act of blatant discrimination, harassing them for being in a public space, but only routine.
This was just one anecdote from the country’s first major study of transgender women, released by the Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) on Wednesday.

Re: Study Exposes Abuse of Trans Cambodians
That's really rich, you calling AM a doofus! The author of that articles name is Dickison, NOT Dickinson ( no N ), so your infantile "joke" doesn't really make sense. I think you over estimated your mentality in your signature. It's more like 7-8 yrs old. Is that the best response to a rather serious article you can come up with?
You should call yourself Sinn Dickinmouth ( your disrespecting a great Cambodian singer by using his name!)

I miss SinnSisamouth and Sailorman. But my aim is getting better!

Good luck to them.
Rights groups call for transgender protections
Fri, 23 September 2016
Erin Handley
Opposition lawmaker Mu Sochua said the “tremendous” discrimination against transgender people deserved specific protection under the law, adding that any law would need to be closely tied to employment legislation and paired with a social awareness campaign.
“It’s long overdue,” she said. “This should be apolitical. It’s not just a matter of policing or a lack of political will, it’s about society opening its mind to gender.”
She said that while Cambodian society was relatively open to LGBT people, with ad hoc same-sex marriages occurring, those rights and protections still need to be legally recognised.
But Council of Ministers spokesman Phay Siphan said there was no need for a specific law protecting LGBT people. “Everyone is already protected against harassment and insult under the law. It is a universal law,” he said.
He urged people to file a complaint if they were victims of police abuse, but when asked if transgender people might be intimidated because of discrimination by authorities, he replied: “That’s their problem.”
“If they fail to protect themselves, they should file a complaint to the court,” he said.
