Hou Yuon (1930-1975) was a veteran of the communist movement in Cambodia, and was of Sino-Khmer descent.  A senior member of the Communist Party of Kampuchea, also known as the Khmer Rouge, he served in several ministerial posts during the 1960s (as a member of the non-communist government of Prince Norodom Sihanouk) and 1970s. Hu Yuon, who repeatedly clashed with other members of the Khmer Rouge leadership on policy issues, was executed on Pol Pot’s orders in 1975.
