In Cambodia, after the civil war was officially terminated in 1991, the Constitution of the Kingdom of Cambodia was adopted in 1993 and the constitutional monarchy system was adopted to gradually stabilize the country. In addition, By doing so, it was transformed from a socialist state to a capitalist state. As a result, the ongoing efforts of foreign and international organizations in the 1990`s led to the introduction of foreign legal systems in the Civil Law, Land Law and Law on Providing Ownership Rights in Private Areas of Co-Owned Buildings to Foreigners on land ownership in Cambodia. However, many of the laws were based on the perceptions of the particular foreign sponsor without meaningful participation by domestic lawyers or cooperation with other donors. As a result, despite recent efforts to reconcile the laws, legal ambiguity persists. Therefore, this paper aims to provide a foundation for contributing to the strengthening of legal system exchange and cooperation between Korea and Cambodia, with the main purpose of reviewing land related legislation in Cambodia.
