In the national level, the Contract law is promulgated for the purpose to facilitate obligation and right betweent parties. The interpretation on the context is quite important therefore the party binding in the contract must be careful on the meaning of the contract as this content will be subject to intepreation in court if any parties bring action against other. The procedure as well as condition of validity is prescribe in the law of contract of the Kingdom of Cambodia (http://www.cdpcambodia.org/contract.asp). Some special contract is govern by specific law such as marriage and family law, the civil servant contract under the administrative law, or labor contract under the labor law.
However, on the international level, Vienna convention on law of treaties 1969 http://untreaty.un.org/ilc/texts/instruments/english/conventions/1_1_1969.pdf governs all rule regarding the procedure, accession, validity and intepretation of treaty between states. The one which applyies to treaties between state and international organization or between international organization is under the Vienna convention 1986 (http://untreaty.un.org/ilc/texts/instruments/english/conventions/1_2_1986.pdf).
However, the term treaty might be given different nomenclature according to the purpose and degree of binding force. Some names that are used in international relation included, MOU (Memorandum of Understanding), Convention (For multilateral state agreement), Charter (For establishment of international organ such as UN), Pact (For an international agreement on law join by numerious states), Concord (historically used for agreement related to relegion), Exchange of Note (Between minstry of two or more countries) and many other name given in international practice.
