Corrupted Officials Burn…

Boeung Kak Lake community members staged a cursing ceremony in Phnom Penh (Cambodia) this morning. They planned to drag puppets representing corrupt officials to the Council of Ministers but were prevented from doing so by units of riot police which blocked the acces roads. The puppets were then dragged onto the sand which fills the area where there once was a lake, and salt, chillis, puffed rice, fake dollars bills and fake golden leafs were thrown on them before being set alight.

You can find more information about this land issue (and many others) in the application for the iPad available on iTunes at this link.
