The achievementof this objective requires the full implementation of thecomprehensive political settlement.2.

International, regional and bilateral assistance to Cambodiashould be co-ordinated as much as possible, complement andsupplement local resources and be made available impartiallywith full regard for Cambodia's sovereignty, priorities,institutional means and absorptive capacity.4. In the context of the reconstruction effort, economic aidshould benefit all areas of Cambodia, especially the moredisadvantaged, and reach all levels of society.5.
