International law and Cambodian Global Input

International Law reached its peak just after the Second World War. The reason for the existence of international law is that it would reduce potential inter-state wars, and the promotion of international peace and security and economic growth. Unfortunately, until now, international law is a relatively new word here in Cambodia, as our view of stability and economic benefits.

The past few decades we have seen in Cambodia very active in regional and globalParticipations; Memberships Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), World Trade Organization, World Intellectual Property Organization and other regional organizations and political / economic meetings in regional and global levels, as well as signatories to other international legal instruments. The purpose of these investments and other high-level meetings are: "stability and economic growth."

Practical and looked into the issues in CambodiaInternational Law, this foreign investments in Cambodia a formula to achieve stability and economic growth? International Law is a relatively new word, here in Cambodia. "Relatively new," that actually know only a few government officials and the public always with what we call international law only.

To know when LL.M candidate, with a focus on international law, I have come that no more than two Cambodian universities offering this course, with quite acceptableQuality. In addition, educational materials, and professors are always inadequate. Most importantly, international law is extremely far from the interests of young students.

The personal testimonies mentioned above, I feel that any of the answers, why Cambodia is lacking behind other countries in the region and in other countries around the world, particularly in the concept of competitive advantage that we are in extreme shortage of International Law human resources. Extreme lack of internationalHuman resources means that we can not get what we deserve at the bargaining table, our national interests are distorted by international instruments in other countries, our diplomacy, stigmatized, and thus the interests of the Cambodian public spheres.
