 It is EASY but NEVER done before in the community (climate change adaptation)

PouChorb is one of the three villages in Dakdam commune, Orang district and Mondulkiri province.
Most of the villagers are Bounorng indigenous people with 138 Families consisting of 545 people
included 261 women. The main occupations are farming (sifting agriculture) in the upper land include
growing vegetables far away from home and collect the none-timber forest products ( traditional
medicine, resin, wood, wild vegetable, wild ginger, rattan, honey and hunting).

Long last living traditional habits of the Bounorng indigenous community rely strongly on the natural
resources particularly of forest and land and the upper-land farming depending on rain drops. Villagers
also practice a livestock raising for additional income such as chickens, ducks, pigs and cattle by set
them free without making any proper cage and taking care to their livestock that it could be a hazard to
their home gardening nearby their house if they do it. Reasonably, Bounong IP have chosen option to
grow vegetables even a lit bit cooking herbal plant at the their small plot of farm far away from home in
order to protect destroying from domestic animal. Most of the children of the family have to drop off
their lower primary schools and help doing farm work with their parent. Since Last few years, the farm
yield is low due to the rain drops are not good and also a strong wind during the rice flowering that
caused farmers are more lack of food in the year.

In 2012, Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Project was piloted in the Dak Dam commune by
MVi-Mondulkiri program of Mondulkiri province under fund support from JCCI-Forumsyd. MVi has
facilitated with local authorities and communities to form up some community groups namely Climate
Change Focal person, Watershed Management Committees, Self-help Groups (three groups) and
Learning Circle Croups (two groups) for vegetable growing and animal raising. Each group have been
built their capacity on climate change, adaptation and mitigation concept through the meetings,
workshops, training and exchange program to outside province. Moreover, these groups were guided to
implement their climate change adaptation activities and often coached them to change practice idea and
habits not only grow crops at farm far away from home but also nearby their home with a planting
strategy. At this moment, a positive change of community is that they have started doing their home
gardening nearby their home by construction a domestic animal- protected fence around the vegetable
garden. Some families are planting a family strategic plant such as pepper and caf. By the moment, 24
of 138 families of the village have constructed fence for their home gardening and some other are
considering to do as well. Mrs. Pchus Bing who is doing a home garden in Pou Chhob village said that
After having our capacities built from MVi, my family started growing vegetable and other integrated
plants at a small garden next to my house and we also constructed a strong wood-fence to protect the
domestic animals. It is easy for us to look after it and now we also have enough water for watering the
garden because at home we have a water pipe system connected from a small dike. We hope that we have
a bit more secured food from this home garden for family. we try to do more if it is good .

7. CHALLENGES & SOLUTION

Lack of commitment from Stung Trengs authority on CF registration- Takung CF

establishment application was submitted to Stung Treng Provincial Governor for approval, it
was obstructed. CFMC have monitored and raised it to community forestry network for
pushing it, three meetings organised for consultation with FAC STG and Provincial officers,
and MVi staff met in person with STG provincial deputy governor but solution could not
find yet. CFMC keep doing this work more. The supporting and intervention against the
illegal forest activities from FAC officers are still limited. However, MVi STG and CFMC
keep to do best cooperation with them.

ELC company encroachment to Community Forest- plenty of resin trees of communities

on the Kralapos mountain Kralapos village have been cut by group of people claimed as the
legal company authorised from Cambodia government to clear forest for hydro power dam
reservoir. Company said they give 8000 riel (2.00US$) as compensation per a resin tree.
Sauphea Peanic ELC with workers equipped with tractors, bulldozers and excavators and
soon have cleared Takung CF area at the point of OLeang Krous area at the UTM X:
634493; Y: 1480706 and X: 635313; Y: 1480700. Two meeting were conducted to discuss
with representative of ECL but did not meet a result. Statement was developed and
submitted to Sesan district by Kbal Romeas commune council. One CFMC member
approached to FAC STG but they queried CFMC back that first, Takung CF have to get
approval to establish CF from STG governor. This is issue is not solved and STG governor
have not approved to acknowledge on the FC application. MVi, CEPA and 3SPN will brief
report of this issue to NGOF and then we will conduct fact finding by meeting with affected
communities and relevant authorities.

Snoul operation program has facing the limited support and cooperation from some
stakeholder especially the activities related rights and NRM, however, staff have tried best
to get more cooperation through keep in touch good communication with them,

Recognition to the ICLT committees of Pou Char village from the commune council took
long time due to the political party trends from Memong commune council, MDK. The
meetings and consultation with Memong commune council were done for getting approval
and provincial officer was also involved in solving issues. After changing the chair of
committee, lastly the commune council signed to approved on ICLT committee.

Internal rule congress activity for ICLT project in Pou Rang, MDK, was stopped on 13rd
August 2013, by the Oraing district governor in reason that MVi did it without official
permission from the district governor while the activity conducting on the due day.
However, MVi and Communuty with official letter invited the district governor and other
relevant authorities both at sub-national and ministry level for the event. Politically, the
district governor concerned of people meeting while political demonstration after national
election, the thing was in the behind. With no any good achievement, project budget have
spent for almost the whole coverage activities because all relevant people come to the venue
and all logistic were well organised. Afterward, MVi tried to meet the Oraing district
governor for clarification on closing the ICLT event but he tried to avoid of meeting with but
lastly his deputy district governors understood the real situation and said apology to MVi
during the district meeting and committed to make a good decision for better cooperation
between the district governor board and district development partners.

8. LESSON LEARNT & RECOMMENDATION

Where the money for CLT measurement and certificate for next ICLT?

The process of Communal Land Titling for indigenous people community has taken quite long time
to complete it. However, step by step, from time to time, the project is run based on the budget
available that funded from many donors. Each of activities from the first start until almost at the end
of the project implementation was managed and covered by small package of money allocated from
the difference donor/partners. But based on the experience that MVi worked with Sre Ktum ICLT
project and also learnt from the other ICLT communities in Mondulkiri facilitated by WSC and
DPA, where they have received the collective land title. MVi learnt that the last activity worked
with MLMUPC and provincial department of LMUPC was cost a big package of money for fee of
land measuring and permanent boundary mapping. The measuring for the communal land was
charged US$ 30.00 per hectare and multiplied by the real size of the communal land. The real
example of Sre Khtum ICLT, MVi target area, was cost US$ 30.00 x 1,083= US$ 32, 520 as a fee
for measuring land. The land measuring team was also paid US$ 75.00 per month for each of
working team members and also supported gasoline fee for their motorbike. The event of handing
over the collective land title to the ICLT members was paid much money as well because of
hundred people both community people and related authorities from sub-national and national level
attended the ceremony.

MVi could not raise and manage budget to pay for a huge cost single activity. However, luckily,
Cambodia Land Administration Support Project, CLASP, funded by Canada, supported money to
the MLMUPC to run the final stage of land measuring in Sre Ktum village and other 4 ICLT
villages in Keo Seima, MDK, and issued land titles to those in 2013.

Through the experience, MVi thought that without a big support for a high cost single activity from
CLASP, Sre Khtum ICLLT has not received the collective land title yet by 2013 though many legal
steps of ICLT process completed. MLMUPC has planned only 3 ICLTs would be issued the titles
per year based on fund support from the development partners.

With this regard, MVi could recommend in general for benefit to all ICLT communities that:
1. The government, MLMUPC should strongly support to do last stage of IP permanent land
measuring and issue land title to each ICLT community with the government budget because
the IP community could not manage their own pocket money for the process
2. The government, MLMUPC should charge very low cost as much as possible for IP land
measuring fee, if they wish to get income for the government from this activity and from
development partners.
3. Donors who support funds to their partners raise these issues for discussion with Cambodia
government to discount the cost of IP collective land measuring or donor agencies should
increase their support for IP land measuring while any of their project implementation
partners come to the last stage.

 Lesson Learnt of 14 IP Families with Directive 01 w

Another lesson learnt was that 14 families of Sre Khtum ICLT members decided to resign from the
ICLT membership and registered their land plot individually with the directive 01 mission. All the
14 families denied listening to the explanation from the ICLT committee and some friends on the
important of the collective land. They have changed their attitude and understood that the collective
land will not provide any advantages besides keeping their land safety. Whereas the individual land
could also make their land safety and they could borrow money from the private banks by deposit
their land certificate at the bank. Seeing like that, all the 14 have made the resignation letter to the
ICLT chair of committee and village chief for the signature approval. The requirement for the
individual land measuring by the directive 01 was also required to submit the resignation letter from
the ICLT membership before they could process individual land for them. Those families were
officially approved to leave from their ICLT membership and being back as non-ICLT members.
Each of their plot of land both residential land and farmland were measured and the land
information record was issued to them for getting the legal land title.

While the 14 families were waiting for the individual land title from the government, the communal
land title was awarded to the ICLT members, 102 families, covered 1,084 hectares of land.
Unluckily, when the individual land titles were granted to the individual families in the villages and
other villages, the 14 families did not get theirs from the land officers. All 14 families did
approached to the land officers and students who were on mission of directive 01 to ask them why
and what happened that they did not received land title. The directive 01 land officers did answered
that these 14 families could not received any piece of land title unless they submit them leaving
form approved by MoI because these families were recognized by MoI as the ICLT membership.
So, when they wish to leave off the membership, they also need to get leaving approval from MoI.

Hesitation of these 14 families and the complicated and unclear explanation from the directive 01
how to leave off the ICLT membership and the approval level from the government, made these
families lost both opportunity of the collective and individual land title.

However, they still have chance to register their land with land systematic registration of the
government program in next time but they have to pay for getting registration for land certificate
and they have to wait for longer.
