We must save our nation.
The author exposes the main dangers facing
Cambodia: deforestation, soil erosion and successive
ecological disasters, mafia State, institutionalized crime and
systemic corruption, dire poverty and abject living conditions
for the ordinary people, malnutrition, HIV/AIDS and other
diseases. Poverty associated with corruption and bad
governance from 1979 to 2001 is responsible for more deaths
than brutal executions under Pol Pot. For most
Cambodians life expectancy is presently as low as 50 years,
while mortality rates, especially infant mortality, are among
the highest in the world. For more than twenty years, at least
200,000 people have prematurely died each year in our country.
We must stop this silent massacre.
