The Great Firewall Expands to Cambodia?

Post by Ong Tay »

What do we make of this?

Cambodia plans China-style internet firewall

"Cambodia's government will route all web traffic through a "national internet gateway" under plans that human rights advocates fear will see critical content blocked by a China-style firewall.

The plans are laid out in a yet-to-be-signed sub-decree drafted in July and obtained by the Nikkei Asian Review."

In China they are trying to get Westerners out of the country. The same thing might happen in Cambodia.
