The top 2 photos show Mrs. Loeuk Vân whose newborn child is highly malnourished due to her inability to produce breast milk caused by starvation. RFA reported that she starts producing small amount of milk again after having food to eat.
On Friday, September 23, 2005, Hun Sen said in a speech that people living in the Ta Moeun area - whom RFA and VOA reported of dying of starvation - were not starving, but had likely died of old age, disease and suicide. The day before Hun Sen's speech, the Sam Rainsy Party organized food relief for the area, largely paying for it with money raised by overseas Cambodians, said opposition parliamentarian Nuth Rumdoul, who was in Ta Moeun Monday morning handing out food to villagers. He said it was his third relief trip to the village.
