“This can only be done when the Sam Rainsy Party is elected and Mr. Sam Rainsy becomes prime minister.”Outspoken opposition parliamentarian Mu Sochua, who lost a defamation case to Prime Minister Hun Sen that resulted in a salary deduction, has vowed to go after the courts to demand reform of the country’s judicial system.
