The Government of Chile has announced a contribution of US$10,000 to the national component of the Extraordinary Chambers in the Court of Cambodia (ECCC). Chile is a new donor to the ECCC, and made this contribution in response to an appeal by the United Nations Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon, and the Royal Government of Cambodia to all member States to come forward urgently with pledges of financial support to the ECCC.

On behalf of the ECCC, we would like to express our thanks to Chile for this contribution.” Acting Director of the Office of Administration H.E. KRANH Tony and Deputy Director Knut Rosandhaug said in a statement.
