Interesting that you aren’t seeing anywhere that in Cambodia, the leading opponent of the group in power, Sam Rainsy, and two companions, having accused the existing powers of plotting their overthrow, are now subject to prosecution as the assembly has voted to suspend the existing immunity from prosecution of members of the assembly who speak on the floor of the assembly.

“The Cambodian National Assembly on Thursday stripped the parliamentary immunity of opposition leader Sam Rainsy and two other members of his party, Chea Poch and Cheam Channy. Sam Rainsy had left the country while Cheam Channy was arrested and taken to a military court after being accused of building an army as part of a coup plot, which analysts in Phnom Penh have dismissed as extremely unlikely.”

Our State Department has protested. Where is MSM these days, and where is the interest in freedoms?
