(Japan): More than 1,500 members of the Cambodian community, including workers and students residing, working, and studying in Japan, gathered at six locations on 14 December 2025 to express their strongest condemnation of the inhumane, brutal, and violent acts committed by the Thai military, which launched indiscriminate attacks and deployed weapons of all types in its invasion of Cambodia’s sovereignty.

The six rally locations included two sites in Tokyo, as well as Osaka Prefecture, Aichi Prefecture, Hiroshima Prefecture, and Fukuoka Prefecture. As part of these gatherings, petitions were submitted to the Embassies of the United States and Malaysia in Japan, as well as to Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, calling on them to condemn the Thai military’s violations and to take urgent and firm measures to pressure Thailand to immediately halt its reckless actions.

Despite near-freezing temperatures and rainfall in some locations, all participants chanted slogans with determination and held banners expressing gratitude to the heroic Cambodian armed forces for defending the nation against foreign aggression. They voiced full support for the decisions of the Royal Government of Cambodia and strongly condemned the Thai military’s most brutal and barbaric violations of Cambodia’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity, including the destruction of schools, pagodas, and other infrastructure, as well as serious human rights abuses committed against innocent Cambodian civilians.

The Cambodian community in Japan called on the United States, Malaysia, and the international community to closely monitor the situation and exert pressure on the Thai military to immediately cease these brutal attacks, in order to ensure the safety of border populations and preserve peace throughout the region.

It should be noted that on 10 December 2025, Cambodians in Japan had also organized protest gatherings at two locations in Tokyo and Osaka to condemn Thailand’s aggressive attacks and violations of Cambodia’s sovereignty.
