pornography is to blame for the increase in rapes in recent years
PHNOM PENH - More and more young Cambodians are able to afford smart phones and Internet access, and data is cheap and fast, and while this leads to greater access to information, some experts worry it also means greater access to pornography.
“Pornographic pictures or videos are sent from phone to phone, through Bluetooth,” said Ngo Menghourng, a researcher who recently completed a small study on the pornography trend. “The phone is small and comfortable for them to hide and view porn.”
Ngo Menghourng asked 30 students about their online habits, and found that most spent about 15 to 20 minutes watching pornography, either alone and in groups. That included young women.
“Pornography is not good to watch, but I was really curious about it, so I decided to watch some,” a high school girl told VOA Khmer recently, requesting anonymity.
A boy student said he and his friends watch pornography together, especially when class becomes boring.
But pornography is also nothing new to Cambodia. DVDs have long been secretly available at the markets, and some coffee shops illegally show pornography to boost business. Some authorities worry that access to pornography has led to increased incidents of sexual assault, and have sought to stamp it out.
Somchan Sovandara, a psychologist at the Royal University of Phnom Penh, said that viewing pornography can affect a student’s studies and overall mental health.
And Chhun Chomrong, head of the women’s section at the rights group Adhoc, said pornography is to blame for the increase in rapes in recent years.

KI media deleted commemts that related to 1997 granade attack.
Shame!
It is meaning no justice for any supporters that died in serving Sam Rainsy political party at all.
Sam Rainsy will never find justice for his supporters at America and international court at all but in fact he use these as his passport for negotiate with Hun Sen after 15 years.
The supporters Sam Rainsy party today must accept that if you die n serving Sam Rainsy party, Sam Rainsy will not care to find justice for you at America and international courts and you die for nothing as 1997 grenade attack victims.
Current affair,
If you old fuck like to watch porn so do young khmer students!
