People in Svay Tong and Kro Bauv district have attempted to travel to Ho Chi Minh City in order to protest and appeal for the return of their lands from the communist authorities and their citizens. Victims of illegal land grabbing included Jika-ang village, Rolarng village, Ka’ngok Pon village, Peam Buon village, Dey Krohorm village, Pothi village, Songke Douch village, Ompeay Svay village, Padeng village, and Kok Ompirl village. Numerous appeals have been made to the village authority, sub-district, district, and the province authority. Nothing has taking seriously by the authorities except for more false and empty promises.
