Democracy in Cambodia

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

The motive is not financial, to pretend it is is silly.
Absolutely. So, if the Phnom Penh Post have paid their taxes, what excuse will the PM use to close it?

When his term is secured once again for the term of PM. Things will relax once again. It's all about power and monies.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Thailand-based expats are automatically excluded from discussions on Cambodia's democracy. Your 50+ coups, military junta and crazy jail sentences for anyone discussing the monarchy in less than flattering tones speak louder than mere words.

Silence, exile, and cunning.

Lol.
Yet... we are not so far behind. Cambodia is advancing in leaps and bounds. Try posting some unflattering words about Cambodia's pseudo-royal family on social media and then get back to us on that. :beer1:

I think you would get away with unflattering words. Downright lies are what get them riled, and rightly so.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
