Your question about a newspaper of a gossip sheet – I understand it well. The Mirror is translating what is in Khmer newspapers, to make it known to the English reading public what the Khmer reading public sees.

The UNIFEM article quotes: “Even though there is no proof …”. Is this a newspaper or a gossip sheet?

Mr. Klein, I don’t think you can use Western logic to Asian, let alone Cambodian and Thai, affairs, political or otherwise, regardless of whether there is a precedent or what past relations were like. I believe you make the same mistake as many other Westerners by imposing Western standards on a vastly different culture. I believe you know Mr. Scholl-Latour, at least by name. It was he who said the Western world can’t just impose our set of values and our way of thinking on other cultures. At the time he referred to the Arab world, but his words equally apply to Asia, or Africa as well.

Global taxes for a global government in the treaties of Copenhagen. The developed nations, like the US, China, Russia and other top economies will be heavily burdened to the point of collapse. All for some politicians to grandstand on and gain more power and wealth.

Dos Sopheap, who lost her leg in 1996 when she was 6 years old, said last month that participating in the pageant had been a wholly worthwhile experience.

“I was glad to participate in the contest because I want people to know that disabled women are not discouraged,” she said.

Providing humanitarian assistance is the only purpose for NGOs in Camboadian but the government has shut down one NGO and ordered its staff to leave the country within 24 hrs without adequate explaination. This is a reality and all NGOs is faced with the whim of the local and central government. The real victims remaion and are of Cambodian people

Of the 3207 NGOs only a small number publish their financials on the web. It’s usually the large ones, like Oxfam, that do. Revealing the source of their funds is important in view of the allegedly suspicious character of some smaller NGOs, e. g. orphanages, NGOs that only operate poverty tours, sponsor a child on $15, etc.

It is great to hear the 30th Anniversary of the NGOs work in Cambodia. However, I am not sure whether those NGOs have reflected on their roles and work from the last decades and the strategy for the future.
