VOA Khmer, Phnom Penh

“The world’s situation is now changing for countries that have bad leaders, that have corruption, joblessness and nepotism.”
The revolution in Egypt that ended with the resignation of its president on Friday has seen minimal coverage in Cambodia, especially as a heated border dispute between Cambodia and Thailand has dominated the news.
The huge shift in Egyptian and regional politics was overshadowed here by news of heavy fighting, including artillery shelling, over disputed land near Preah Vihear temple.
The limited coverage has meant “less information for the Cambodian people, where Cambodia and Egypt have a nearly similar situation,” said Ou Virak, executive director for the Cambodian Center for Human rights.
