Summary
|
Voa Yin, alias Cha, male, aged 25, disappeared. Interviewed with his 47-year-old younger brother Voa Yoeun; Yin៌s father was Voa Yun and mother was Som Ry. Yin had 8 siblings [5 boys + 3 girls], and he was born in Khloy 3 village, Mien sub-district, Prey Chhor district, Kampong Cham province. When he was a child, Yin studied until grade 5 [in the old system] in O Da High School. He then left school when there was a demonstration to depose King Sihanouk. While dropping out of school for three months, there were propaganda and National Liberation Front. It was in 1970 that Yin volunteered to serve as a Khmer Rouge soldier through King Sihanouk៌s call for Beijing. At that time, there were many young men and women joining the revolution including Sren in the village. When first joining the revolution, Yin was assigned to be stationed only in Prey Chhor district, and he wasn៌t sent to the battlefield. It was about two years later that Yin came to visit his home village and told his parents and siblings that "Do whatever Angkar assigned, and don៌t deny". While Yin visited home, it៌s known that he was the chief of the division in 14th Regiment. At that time, Yin fought with Lon Nol soldiers until getting the victory in 1975. While marching and fighting into Phnom Penh, Yin injured in his hand and then sent to receive treatment in Kampong Cham province until recovery from his injury. After recovery, Yin was sent back to work in Phnom Penh. In 1976-1977, Yin came to visit his home village again. After returning, he has completely disappeared until now. It was in 1977 that Angkar arrested many Khmer Rouge cadres, so Yin, who was the chief of the division, must have been arrested by Angkar as well. According to his background, Yin was the chief of the division in 310th Division Office, and he was the arrested by Angkar on January 22, 1977 while Yoeun had also volunteered to join the revolution since 1973. When being sent to the battlefield, Yoeun met his elder brother, but they៌re in different units. It was in 1975 that Angkar dispersed military forces in all zones to work in different places; thus, Yoeun no longer saw Yin, and he didn៌t know when his brother was assigned by Angkar because, during the Khmer Rouge regime, especially in 1977, Khmer Rouge cadres arrested to detain and kill other Khmer Rouge cadres. Yoeun was sent by Angkar to work as a Kampong Cham Port worker while some were assigned to Sihanouk Port; in addition, soldiers became workers in Ministry of Commerce.

The Prevention and Punishment of the Crimes of Genocide
By Youk Chhang
The Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide stands alongside the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as one of the key pillars of international human rights law, and for this Human Rights Day in 2022, I want to highlight the critical importance of the responsibility to prevent atrocity crimes, which includes genocide. When atrocity crimes occur, there is an immediate need to stop these atrocious acts, followed by the equally urgent tasks of documenting, investigating, and ultimately prosecuting the perpetrators. However, from 1948 to today, we have not given enough attention to true prevention.
Atrocity crimes do not occur in a vacuum. There is a long chain of events and conditions that precede atrocity crimes. Isolation, segregation, and discrimination frequently, if not always, precede the rationalization of atrocity crimes against a group of people. And before people are discriminated against, they must be dehumanized. The process of dehumanization depends upon rationalizing hatred and distrust, and these processes are precipitated by misinformation, fueled by uninformed biases, stereotypes, and exploitative actors. They are also frequently dependent upon the disintegration, corruption, or lack of development of critical institutions, in particular institutions dedicated to dialogue and education. It is here that we must dedicate our greatest attention.
Since 1948, we have made great strides toward taking actions that interrupt, mitigate, and to a very limited extent, punish the chief perpetrators of atrocity crimes; however, these actions are not preventative but reactive in nature. No atrocities crime trial has ever prevented the next genocide, and no sanctions or punishment can bring back the dead or undo the trauma that extends across multiple generations. Indeed, the trauma of atrocity crimes in the distant past are often the forgotten seeds for the next wave of violence and inhumanity of the future.
If we are to truly adopt strategies that are effective, far reaching, and decisive in preventing atrocity crimes, then our priorities must be re-oriented to the opposite end of the spectrum, where the seeds of the next genocide are cultivated. Our responsibility in complying with foundational human rights documents should be measured not solely by our success at responding, investigating, and prosecuting atrocity crimes, but by our efforts in supporting institutions, initiatives, and actions that have a positive influence in preventing all forms of inhumanity. The most effective strategy at preventing the next genocide is centered on actions and policies that interrupt and reduce the risk of escalation at the earliest stages of inhumanity.
Cambodia recently removed human rights days from public calendars. I think we should reconsider this collective decision. Cambodia has achieved extraordinary success in its genocide education programme, which is the essence of atrocity crimes prevention. And so, to capitalize on this success and Cambodia’s regional and even global leadership in this area, we should hold an annual dialogue on the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. As the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) closes its doors, there is no better time than now to preserve Cambodia’s leadership and momentum in realizing the core objectives of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.
The Documentation Center of Cambodia (DC-Cam) is proud of the support it has given to the ECCC’s work, which was fundamental to giving victims an opportunity to participate in the justice process and realize some sense of closure from the Khmer Rouge genocide. DC-Cam is also eager to support an annual conference on the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. As we commemorate this Human Rights Day, we would be mindful to recognize our fundamental human rights documents are not only universal commitments, but also standards for evaluating the kind of world we are leaving for the next generation.

Photo above: Children at Angkor Wat, 1979. After the collapse of the Khmer Rouge regime on 7 January 1979, hundreds of thousands of children were left orphaned. From 1975 to 1979, the Khmer Rouge led Cambodia into tragedy causing the deaths of over 2 million people. Although two millions were killed, five millions more survived to tell their story. The perpetrators of these crimes also survived. Photo: Documentation Center of Cambodia Archives.
