The Japanese government says it will contribute more than 4-million US dollars in assistance to help Cambodia cover a shortfall of funds for the trial of former Khmer Rouge leaders.
The Japanese Embassy said the money was requested by Cambodia to help finance its share of the budget for the tribunal.
In a statement the embassy says it believes the legal process will promote peace, democracy, the rule of law and good governance in Cambodia.
Japan has so far contributed more than 20-million for the trials.
The court is currently hearing the case against former prison chief Kaing Guek Eav, the first of five Khmer Rouge figures detained by the tribunal to be tried.
