ABSTRACT
By 1995, Cambodia, for years a society torn by war, had become one beset by a range of new problems arising out of the relative peace brought by the suspension of the country's civil war in 1991 and United Nationssupervised elections in 1993 -- problems including how to achieve "sustainable" development in the face of rapid population growth, high unemployment and on-going environmental deterioration; how to combine social equity with a new free-market environment; how to construct something at least as difficult to build as Angkor Wat - competent government.
