This unfortunate reality is compounded by the fact that Hun Sen’s influence in this country is as strong as his ‘popularity’ is widespread. He is, quite simply, without peer in shaping the political and social landscape in Cambodia. His portrait is displayed in public and private spaces alike, and his image (along with those of Chea Sim and Heng Samrin) is as ubiquitous, if not more so, as that of the King himself. Demagogue that he is, Hun Sen regularly and enthusiastically addresses the nation on all manner of contemporary issues, including the highly politicized legal cases of the day. Respected by many and feared by even more, the Prime Minister is accustomed to dictating his judicial views to captive (and at times captivated) audiences. And the public, in turn, is used to accepting the underlying ‘facts’ of his habitual screeds. In short, when Hun Sen speaks, Cambodians listen. And, unfortunately, quite often they believe what he has to say.
Well said, lets see AH dictator Hun Sen get out of this one! The world needs to know of AH dictator Hun Sen's influence over the country. He needs to start taking accountability in both his words and action.
These lawyers are tough! Thy might have connection to ICC in the Hague.
