2011 Freedom of the Press in Cambodia: NOT FREE, Rank 141 over 196 countries

Source: Freedom House

Cambodia’s score also deteriorated due to an aggressive use of disinformation and defamation legislation against journalists, as well as a reduction in media diversity following the closure of an opposition newspaper.

I'm Thai here. And I could say most of news here were broadcast by gov channel. So I always curious the truth. So I read from you too.

About Singapore most their citizen has a good education. (As you can see from University Ranking Nangyang Uni) People can think by themselves. And as far as I know Singapore got Transparency Index = 9.3 ,RANK #1,even better than US and AUS. (http://goo.gl/8rEs) Don't look down to singapore, They're much better than Cambodia... and Thailand too.
