“Mr. Son Chhay, a Sam Rainsy Party [SRP] lawmaker from Phnom Penh, and a leader of the SRP lawmakers, said on 25 February 2008 through the Candlelight radio program [Sam Rainsy’s radio program], that it is the politics in our society and the mistakes of the leaders of the country that lead neighboring countries to influence Khmer people very easily.
[…]
He added that after Cambodia was invaded by Yuon troops [in 1979], the influx of the way of ruling and training in the new society made Khmer citizens forget about their national interests by thinking only about seeking pleasure - for example television and radio stations broadcast only dancing and singing programs. The society is full of gambling, drugs, sex, and alcohol, which drive Khmer young people crazy.
Got that? The problems started in 1979 — before that everything was cool, and singing and dancing was outlawed, and violators were tortured until they went insane and confessed their allegiance to the Hanoi masters and then had their faces bashed in with the butt of a rifle. Yeah, my friend, those were the good ol’ days.
