Yeak Laom
Yeak Laom is a khum in the Banlung District of the Ratanakiri Province in Cambodia. It has a population of 1,855.
On May 2, 2008, the Ratanakiri provincial governor granted a, 90-year lease to BVB Investment to develop a tourist attraction site on Youl Mountain in Yeak Laom commune, Banlung District, including parts of the indigenous Phnom, Sill, and Lapo villages. NGOs reported that much of the leased area may be eligible for registration as indigenous community land under the 2001 law. The affected indigenous communities were not involved in lease negotiations.Villages
