| Policies and Procedures
- OEC staff will disseminate in their working
territory that all human beings are born free
and equal in dignity and rights. They are
entitled to all the rights and freedoms set
forth in the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights, without distinction of any kind, such as
race, color, sex, language, religion, political
or other opinion, national or social origin,
property, or other status, to create national
harmony. these rights are repeated and
reinforced again in the ICCPR and the ICESCR.
- Depending on existence of Minorities or
Indigenous in the operational fields, OEC will
integrate all of them in the project(s) to
eliminate discrimination and promoting equal
liberty of opportunity and outcome, respecting
the rightful principle of Human Rights for All
Human Beings.
- OEC will pay more attention to people in
remote areas as well as minorities and
indigenous people in the aim at building equal
empowerment and to approach the countryside with
the town and capital in order to eliminate
opportune inequality and discrimination in
access to development.
- The past experience shows clearly that
leaving minorities ignorant and isolated, they
fall easily in the strategy “Going from paddy
field to Capital” that caused a sad disaster.
OEC will seek for supporting fund to develop
remote areas culturally, skillfully, and
technically for a dignitary livelihood allowing
people in remote areas or minorities to attain a
living standard similarly to other people in
Cambodian society.
- OEC agrees with the idea that the protection
of minority rights is best achieved and
articulated through a combination of majority
sensitivity and minority inclusion. Minority
voices are heard, and minority rights more
respected when representatives of minority
groups enjoy full access to participate in the
political sphere, public life and the relevant
areas of decision making.
Overview
People who repeatedly take large amounts of
drugs such as alcohol, marijuana, ecstasy,
amphetamines, or narcotics may become dependent on
the drugs. The effect of these drugs can cause
confusion, depression, sleep problems, anxiety,
damage to the brain in areas that control thought,
memory, and learning; paranoia ascribing hostile
intentions to other persons; poor motivation,
impaired judgment and memory, personality changes,
and disrupted collaboration and family
relationships; health problems such as hepatitis.
Addicts spend so much time and money trying to
obtain drugs or under the influence of drugs that
they neglect their family, friends, and work.
Pregnant women who take drugs can cause harm to
their unborn children. All drug users risk injury or
death to themselves and others if they drive under
the influence of a drug, and that can destroy
internal working harmony, create conflict of
interest, and undermine all fundamental
interrelation with international, national and
private institutions. In short Drugs deprive users
of their ability to participate and enjoy their
rights and the rights of others, as enshrined in the
'Declaration of Human Rights'; including but not
limited to the right to life, liberty and security
of person; the right to the free development of the
user's personality and the right to work; the right
to a standard of living adequate for the health and
well-being of himself and of his family, including
food, clothing, housing and medical care and
necessary social services, together with the right
to security in the event of unemployment, sickness,
disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of
livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.

to use all their strong vigilance to prevent
possibility of sale, possession, and use of these
kinds of drugs, or being intermediaries of illicit
commerce, in the office, at home, or in other public
place and in personal daily life. To this end, OEC
staffs are binding together to keep close watch on
their children attitude and children or adults of

atmosphere, to use any efficacious psychological or
legal ways to discourage drug suppliers and drug
traffickers.
