3- Ensure an adequate economic, financial and monetary policy so as topreserve the stability of the riel.
4- Control the printing of bank notes so as to avoid issuing paper money inan irresponsible and disorderly manner. If the government continues toinflate money supply, the riel will continue to depreciate and inflationwill continue to accelerate.
5- Implement land reform by distributing unused state-owned lands tolandless farmers or those who do not have enough land to live on, so as toincrease agricultural production nationwide. For the tens of thousands ofhectares of lands grabbed or stolen from the State or from the people bycorrupt government officials and cunning businessmen, they must be returnedback to the people so that Cambodian farmers can effectively plant cropsneeded to counter inflation.
If the prices of goods double, salaries must also be doubled
