Voice of Democracy (VOD), which is financially supported by USAID, had reduced its number of broadcast hours on FM105 radio station, and cancelled its broadcast on FM93.5 station. The Cambodia Daily quoted Pa Nguon Tieng, the current VOD president, saying that VOD reduced its number of broadcast hours on Beehive FM105 radio station, from 5 hours to 2 hours daily, and VOD has cancelled its broadcast through FM93.5 radio station staring 01 June. Pa Nguon Tieng said that VOD, which receives its funding from USAID, will see its funding dried up by 30 September, and VOD has not yet decided whether it will continue its broadcast or not. Pa Nguon Tieng said that he will contact other foreign aid organizations if USAID will stop VOD’s funding. VOD is a popular radio program because of its forthright broadcast of human rights issues and its coverage of democracy-related topics.

Thank God, at last, for some
relief from false accusations for
thousands of innocent hard working
people. VOD must be shut down, and
Ah Sam Nazi must be deported back
to where he came from.
