Does the International Criminal Court have the will to prosecute environmental crimes?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Khmer history is about rulers. Cambodians never went through the Age of Enlightenment, or the Religious Wars that Europe went through. Might makes right. Period.

The high point was the Angkor Empire. After that, endless royal family squabbles, being used by both the Thai and the Vietnamese, all in a grab for power. And keeping it. Currently Iron Man holds power and making sure nothing challenges that power.

Nothing will happen.

Revolution and people power is not a native Khmer idea.

That’s my opinion.

I sincerely hope I’m wrong.
yes but it didn't work too well for anyone when angkor collapsed due to incompetent leadership and I suspect the current version of cambodia is close to that stage.
