Phnom Penh (November 04, 2014) – As you may know, recent comments by Cambodian government officials indicate that a draft Cybercrime law may be just days away from being finalized. Though the government has so far refused to make the draft copy public,a version that was leaked earlier this year raises serious concerns about the ramifications the law will have for online free expression and other critical human rights.
CCIM is joining the Cooperation Committee for Cambodia (CCC) and others in petitioning the Cambodian government to release an official copy of the draft Cybercrime law and to engage in meaningful consultation before finalizing it. Please join us by signing the online petition at www.change.org/p/cybercrime
