A 27-year-old man in eastern Cambodia has died of bird flu, the country's first fatality this year and its eighth since the virus started to sweep through Asia almost seven years ago.

Cambodia's Health Ministry said in a statement issued jointly Wednesday with the World Health Organization that the man in Prey Veng province died Saturday. It was the country's 10th human case of the disease.

The statement says there have been 494 laboratory-confirmed cases of the disease in 15 countries since 2003, with 293 fatalities. The Cambodian man's death was the 11th worldwide this year.

The Health Ministry said it was investigating the case, and stepping up a campaign for preventative health measures.

Hem Heng, ambassador from Cambodia to US is new Khmer like Mrs You Ah ambassador to Bangkok and they made from Srok Yuon. Yuon are the most EVILS ever live, worse than Hitler and than animal in the jungle.

Yuon are the killers of Khmers of Laos and of Thais now is happening. Yuon created chaos and confusion in Thailand.

Yuon forced Khmers to build the canal then shot Khmers after they finished; Yuon killed Khmers by buring Khmers alive with 3 heads for Dam Tae Ong.

Yuon are being cursed and Yuon will be punished for the most unhumane and will be driven back to HELL by the power of GOD.
