The Government of Malaysia has contributed US$50,000 to the national component of the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC). Malaysia is a new donor to the ECCC, and made this contribution in response to an appeal by the United Nations Secretary-General, Ban Kimoon, and the Royal Government of Cambodia. The international community was asked to urgently come forward with pledges of financial support to the ECCC.
“It is a pleasure to welcome Malaysia as a new donor to the ECCC. On behalf of the ECCC, we would like to express our sincere appreciation for this contribution from the Government of Malaysia”, Acting Director of the Office of Administration H.E. Kranh Tony and Deputy Director Knut Rosandhaug said in a statement.
