Kong Sothanarith, VOA Khmer | Phnom Penh
“We banned all stations that handle VOA and RFA programs.”
A Ministry of Information official confirmed Monday the government had banned broadcasts of Voice of America and Radio Free Asia during the election Sunday.
San Putheary, chief of the audio-visual department at the ministry, told VOA Khmer the ban was to maintain a “quiet atmosphere” (sic!) as Cambodians went to the polls to elect local leaders of commune councils.
“We banned all stations that handle VOA and RFA programs,” he said, adding that the ban had been conducted legally.
Chea Sundaneth, director of the Women’s Media Center, which broadcasts the US-government programming on FM102, said they had received a call from the ministry Thursday night and were told to cease the broadcasts. They also ceased broadcasts of Radio France International and Radio Australia.
Keo Rattha, owner of Angkor Rattha Radio, said he too had been ordered to cease broadcasts. The ban was extended to Voice of Democracy broadcasts on FM106.5.
An official for the National Election Committee said the election body was not aware of the ban. A US Embassy spokesman said officials there are “gathering all the facts” related to the ban.
“It’s harmful for free expression, for the right to access to information,” said Koul Panha, executive director of the Committee for Free and Fair Elections. “And it harms the electoral process, which needs full information to ensure free and fair elections.”
Pro-government media and state-run TV were allowed to broadcast throughout Election Day, he said, “and they broadcast especially about [ruling Cambodian People’s Party] leaders.”

All Hun Sen's supporters are voting for self-destruction by Yuon timed bomb. Vietnamese doesn't have to do anything because CPP's supporters will be destroying themselves and killing Cambodian. CPP will do anything to please Vietnamese for a few million dollars. Hun Sen's will win all election until he die by the Vietnamese voters.
The END OF KHMER ERA by Hun Sen's regime is starting now.
In 10 years all Khmer people will become a 2nd Khmer Krom included all Hun Sen's grandchildren.
DUMB Khmer keep voting for CPP, and pray to god that the Vietminh Hun Sen isn't after your land.
I would like to say congratulation to CPP, and all the supporters for their hard fought victorious election. It was a free and fair election. Clearly Cambodian trusted CPP to lead the country to next century. Even Borie Kola & Boung kok voted for Our hero CPP.ScamSRP their potato diggers might have to wait until next life. Losers might have to go home with empty pocket again. It's ok for you cockroaches to start crying your asses out. Pi Anh.
Nice works Pi Anh you should re-phrase your words to support your country because CPP will destroy your country and your people.
I have decided to cease sending all sorts of help to Cambodia- money, donations to poor victims and family members in Cambodia. They deserve a life full of misery and tears under this regime. They have known nothing better. Let them die in the frog hole there. Stop crying from now on. Hun Sen can help them now, so developed that they don't need our help. May god bless their souls.
To ah Pi Anh wait till they screw your families. Time will tell. Mr. Pi Anh I think you're a Hun Sen dick sucker no wonder why you support a former Khmer Rouge.
Finally 6:20 AM realized ScamSRP nad his followers go nowhere, but brought sadness upon themself. Does it make sense to you potato diggers, after all abusive and being kick out of their own home, locked up by our CPP, Borie Kola and Boung Kok still voted for our CPP again ? Don't they learn anything form their worst experience? If i was you, i would stop helping them too. They had a chance to make thing better, but times after times they blew it again. Go figure!!! Pi Anh.
To ah Pi Arch Hun Shit cock sucker,

I now where people like would go, you have been locking yourself up in a prison-like with Ki Media. It's good to see you are in love with the readers and supporters of Sam Rainsy, although on the outside you pretend to hate him.
6:20 AM
You should twice before doing this, if Pi Anh was do die of starvation without your money, it would not be fun much without him posting in this group.
These 3 Negros are so happy to drink beer. They are the lost souls, that was why the Vietnamese love to brainwash them.
Cambodians need to educate their own people.
I don't see anything wrong with a can of beer during a hot day in Cambodia, however their images look better if they drink a bottle of water.
So , finally we get this idiot accepts that dumb Khmer and not viets
who voted for CPP. This is they way it should be :quick the smart and
the IDIOT Khmers out of the country and let the dumb live alone in
Cambodia . Don't bother to ask them to switch their votes ! ទុកអោយអា
