  2. 2/2
    "The map, compiled by #UNODC, clearly identifies multiple #scamhubs along the Thai-Cambodian #border.. #Cambodia now appears as the leading #hotspot for #cyberfraud #operations. Among the most prominent locations marked on the map is #Sihanoukville.. #Huione Group is a major #Cambodian financial #conglomerate with documented links to the #Hun #family"

  3. The videos posted to Facebook all have the same look and feel: The subject looks directly at the camera, joins his hands in a sampeah – a #Cambodian gesture of respect – and apologizes.

    Examples from last month – Cambodian #journalist Mech Dara and overseas #activist Hay Vanna – were just the latest additions to a long list of activists and #critics forced by #threats or legal action to recant and pledge their loyalty to the ruling #CambodianPeoplesParty (CPP).

    Those are some of the most high-profile instances. Several other opposition activists told #RadioFreeAsia that they were forced to pledge allegiance to the ruling party to maintain the safety of their family or to avoid politically motivated criminal charges.
