Original report from Phnom Penh

Opposition lawmakers submitted their own anti-corruption law to the National Assembly on Monday, in a symbolic act to push the Council of Ministers to hand over the real draft.
The Council of Ministers approved a much-anticipated anti-corruption law in December, but it has not moved the bill over the National Assembly for debate.
Officials at the Council say the draft is undergoing proofreading by legal and anti-corruption experts, but Sam Rainsy Party lawmakers said Monday the law needs to be debated and passed.
