Cambodian National Conference 2007

1991 Paris Peace Agreement

INVITATION

Dear compatriots,

We, Cambodians, even though living elsewhere, remain deeply attached to and care for our motherland. “The Paris Peace Agreement” of October 23, 1991 was an historical event and a date to be remembered. This agreement’s aim was: to provide and protect Cambodian independence; territorial sovereignty and integrity; non-interference from foreign countries and its neighbors; and to restore freedom and human rights to Cambodia . After sixteen years of the Agreement being in place, Cambodia is still subjected to continued territorial violations and encroachments by its neighbors, and its citizens still suffer endless violations of their rights.
