THE National League of Commune/Sangkat Councils (NLC/S) opened a two-day forum in Preah Sihanouk and Kampot provinces on Tuesday to gather input from commune councillors on the challenges of decentralisation.

“We created the forum to reinforce good governance in the commune councils and push the government to give more power to the commune councillors as part of the decentralisation effort,” said Pok Sokundara, secretary general of the NLC/S.

Commune councillors were first elected in 2002, the initial step in the government’s ongoing effort to delegate greater administrative responsibility to local authorities. Common concerns voiced by forum participants, however, included the difficulties managing finance and development plans, and the lack of communication between commune officials and higher-level government authorities.

“We don’t have the power to make development plans for our communes because high-ranking government officials never ask us what our people need,” said Touch Satheang, chief of Boeng Touk commune in Kampot province.

I used this cool utility drm-removal and used it for removing drm from itunes protected files a years ago, it did it well, btw. Then I bought mp3 player and it could't play my wma files so I decided to [url=http://drm-removal.com]convert wma to mp3[/url] with drm-removal. It works perfect! Just some moves, you only need to click "Add" button and choose the folder of wma files. They will convert all the tracks at once at a really high speed. If you have the same question and need to convert wma to mp3, you should try drm-removal!
I am big lovers of audiobooks and actually wonder, if it legal. I bought a book (now its mine!) from napster, but may be its drm and I can't copy it to my MP3 player!! Thats dick!! I can remove drm - but what about legacy?

thanks in advance!
