'Drunk Teacher' song banned

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.

I understand that a alcohol- and drug-abusing teacher is a serious problem, but I think you could laugh a little to the matter by writing a song. People's sense of humour is kinda strict nowadays.

It should be a song about the Korean public school system. After a night of drunken debauchery consuming soju and 21-year-old scotch and Coke with the 'juicy girls' in a room salon, it's not unusual to see Mr. Kim 'blowing chunks' (kimchie, rice & fish) into the wastebasket by his desk. However, there is a berry juice/ginseng hangover 'tonic' that, when you read the label on the back, is 18% alcohol by volume.
:facepalm:
You could be next.

Ministry bans playing of music video
April 2, 2018
The Minister of Information has advised all owners of television stations to stop broadcasting the song “Rom Skob” – which means “pause dance” in English – because it uses the Calmette Hospital logo in several scenes of its music video without permission.

In a letter dated March 30, Information Minister Khieu Kanharith said that performers in the video, produced by Sunday Production, can be seen wearing uniforms bearing the logo of Calmette Hospital without the hospital’s permission, affecting the honour and dignity of Calmette Hospital employees.

In December, the Information Ministry banned owners of all radio and TV stations from broadcasting the song “Kru Bongrean Sroverng Sra”, which translates to drunken teacher in English, claiming it dishonoured and insulted teachers.
