UN hoopla. Why don't these people learn from nature? Doesn't nature has something to teaching them of their unnatural behavior?
Being pervert is not a 'human right' issue--rather, it is a misbehavior issue.

Well, the Hun clan controls just about everything else in srok Khmer, so why not just ask Hun Sen's lesbian daughter to head up the organisation?

As for you people who object to homosexuality, open your eyes. The world is a changing place. Gays and lesbians are accepted everywhere. There are good and bad homosexuals, just like there are heterosexuals. So live and let live guys.
