The preparation of Land Law Handbook: The Law of Landownership and Real Property in Cambodia reflects Attorney Yem's longstanding interest in secured transactions and commercial law. Drawing upon years of practical legal experience, this handbook offers a practitioner's account of Cambodian land law and its application in transactions, registration and disputes.

Her objective is to contribute to Cambodian legal scholarship with practical materials that support professional care and strengthen confidence in Cambodia's legal system.

Attorney Yem believes that legal scholarship plays an important role in the development of a modern legal profession. Through the publication of professional legal treatises, articles, and practical guides, she hopes to assist future generations of Cambodian lawyers while encouraging greater understanding of Cambodia's commercial legal framework within the international legal community.
