is my great pleasure to present a medium-tam plm for the p r o m o th of the sacio-eoanomic tatus of women arid veterans. This plan demonstrates the Royal &vmment's

to improve the status of women, veterans and theis f.gmilies, who are vitalhuman resource of Cambodia. The need for human r m edopmmt fixm e n ,

a d heir fanzilies is tremendous andcuts m s s ilsectors, atdl levels. T M w ,tbMinistty of Women's andW&S Affairswould like to dmw the attentiano f d l oows,+,j@ the Royal Govame n t of Cambodiad ctive groups in civil sockty to ensure ttrat.

interests of women, veterans and their families are integrated into our planning andimplementationprocesses.N a r y Raiimak s a new image of Cambodianwomen,moving @oma disadvantaged gmuprothe nation's invaluable assets and its economic potential. The new stratw requires us to

Idevelop new programmes organized firstaround human resource development, both internaland external, and strong emphasis on strategic management, Fulfillment of our mandate willnot be an easy process. Thorough assessment in priority areas and actions needs to beundertaken once this strategic plan is adopted. Mobilization of resources, both internal andexternal to MCVVA,will be negotiated aswe proceed to identifjl gaps. I trust that our visionfor the promotion of the status ofwornen and veterans will be shared with our partners withintheRoyal Government of Cambodia and our development partners in the near hture.I would like to express my sincere gratitude to a goup of people who assisted this planningprocesses.

directly to NGOs without MOCVA's knowledge. In addition, some donors have clearpolicies not to assist the structures of RGC. Therefore, MWVA's finction of p i d i n g andcoordinating the external assistance has remained weak to date.The Beijing ~ l a t f b r m f Action for the Promotion of the S tat is of W omen stipulated fourkeys to successfil hnctioning of the national machinery as follows:o High profile in the government;o A comprehensive system enabling active support and participation of a broad and

diverse range of other institutional actors for the promotion of the status ofwomenincluding legislativebodies, academic and research institutions,professionalassociations, trade unions, cooperatives, local community groups, women NGOs, media,religious groups, youth organizationsand private sector;

o Suficient allocation of financial and human resource and;o Opportunities to participate in all decision-making processes in the government.In order to best address its mandate,MWVA considers that following are the highest priorityareas:o to develop first its human resource to equip itselFas the national machinery for the

promotion of the status ofwornen;s to proactively w s eeds ofwomeri at the grass-roots, plan and implenlent rnu l t i -

Itwaslater upgraded to a Ministry in 1996. The achievements of this new entity during the firstfive years are:

F s a l point officers fw the promotion of the status of w o r n were appointed in therelevant line ministries and public institutions;

m Alto& 11 Women's Development Centres were established as tmnmunity-foroms for women's training courses and meetings;* Some legislationto protect and promote women's rights has been adopted;- Public information campaigns took place during the International Women's Day. WorldA D S Day, May Dray and so f m h ;*- The first woman Minister fo r Women and Veteran Affairs was appointed after. theGeneral Election of 1998 and;

* The LVomen's Forum, a national coordination forum between MWVA and NGOs, hasbeer1 established and regular meetings are planned for strategic planning and advocacyfor the promotion of the status ofwomen.

The Ministry has also managed and gained work experience by implementing collaborativeprogrammes with donors, United Nations agencies and international agencies:I * Technical Assistance Mission for Strengthening the Capacity of the Secretariat of Statefor kVornenasAffairs (ADB)Project Preparation Technical Assistance for Employment Generation Project (ADB)Strengthening W V A ' s capacity in Birth-Spacing and Reproductive Health EducationW P A )* Multi-Sectoral Responses to HIVIAIDS (UNAIDS)

On the other hand, between about 40% and 72% of adult men over 25years old in Cambodia hw e not completed primary education (Ministryof Planning NationalInstitute of Statistics, Report on the Cambodian Socio-Economic Survey 1997, pp . 10-11). . .

Carrlbodian boys and girls start on an equal footing in primary education. They have roughlysimilar enrollment rates up to the age 10, then girls start falling behind boys (Ministry ofPlanning, Cambodian Human Development Report, 1998, p. v).

order to develop policies and strategiesC. Legal Protection for WomenThe Constitution of th e ' f ig d o m of Cambodia covers women's rights in almost all spheresof their life. During the last administration, the National Assembly either drafted or adoptedlaws protecting and promoting women's rights, i.e. the Law on Abortion, the Law on theSuppression of the Kidnapping, Trafficking and Exploitation of Human Persons and a draftlaw related to domestic violence. As the legal system in Cambodia is still very weak in termsof its human and financial resources, law enforcement has been weak.Legal literacy among ~ambod ian; s also low. Women, who are victims of violence, do notresort to litigation as the existing legal services charge them a lot. Moreover, there are fewwomen-oriented legal service points. Awareness of the general public, decision-makers andopinion leaders about women's rights remains very low.

D.Women's Participation into Economic Development.(,

Cambodian women contribute much in economic activities, yet they do not fare equally tomen. Larger proportions of women than men work in family-operated farms or businesseswithout pay. For example; in rural areas, only 15.4% of men work in family-operated farms

.Ior businesses without pay, while as high as 46.2% o f women work in similar settings. Inother urban areas, 9.3% of men work in family operated f m s or businesses without pay,while as high as 30.7% of women work in similar settings. In Phnorn Penh the rates are 2.4%of men and 10.1% for women respectively.There is a higher unemployment rate for women in rural and urban areas. For example, 5.5%of female population, in contrast with 3.4% of male population, are not employed in otherurban areas. In rural areas, 2.2%of female population, in contrast with 1.7% for malepopulation, are not employed.A large proportion of the female labour force in rural Cambodia is untapped and their incomegenerating opportunities are limited since they face many constraints (e.g. lack of skills,opportunities and child-care) to participate in economic activities.

Camb3dian women are known for their trading skills (The Siam Society, 1993). But theylack entrepreneurial skills to survive the 21" century liberal market. Their laGk ofentrepreneurial skills is manifested in the tireless production of goods which are to identicaleach other. Most of them we taught to produce goods 'through emulation rather thaninnovation, so the infsrmal sector market has a tendency of saturation.Many fen~aIe ntreprdeneursack confidence and self-esteem as well as business, managerialand marketing skills. This makes it difficult for them to enhance their businesses particularlyits growth in scale. There is no business association of Cambodian women They weisolated and opportunities for informationlknow-how, exchanse and coliective action have
