Phnom Penh: PM Hun Sen encourages provincial governors to resolve disputes out of court, especially land disputes at the local level, to strengthen land security, and social well-being, create favourable conditions for local socio-economic development and accelerate poverty reduction.

Speaking at the closing ceremony of the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning, and Construction's meeting on the afternoon of December 27, 2022, Prime Minister Hun Sen stated that the land dispute reflected Cambodia's peaceful state. Many people are looking for land to settle down, and government officials and the rich are also seeking land for expansion and development, which caused land disputes.

"Because of peace, there have been developments; the land conflict has also occurred, although it is not new," he said.

Between 2018, and September 2022, the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning, and Construction received 6,019 land dispute cases, of which 3,691 were resolved, and 3,484 are still pending.

According to the report on the five-year summary of achievements of the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction released on December 27, 2022, the Ministry received 2,930 complaints in 2018 and resolved 2,404 cases.

In 2019, 1,309 cases were received and 472 cases were resolved. In 2020, 872 cases were received, and 378 cases were resolved. In 2021, 392 cases were received; 202 cases were solved; and in the first 9 months of 2022, 516 cases were received and 235 cases were solved. In total, there are still 3,484 cases that the Ministry is dealing with.
