Australia will continue its defence cooperation program with Cambodia, despite a controversial new policy which formally links business to Cambodian military units.
London-based advocacy group Global Witness has released a statement calling on countries who provide aid to Cambodia to condemn the policy, saying it could foster an arrangement whereby businesses will receive military protection in exchange for financial backing.
Presenter: Liam Cochrane
Speakers: Hor Nambora, Cambodia's Ambassador to the UK and Scandinavia; Eleanor Nichol, a campaigner with Global Witness; spokesman for Australia's Department of Defence
