30TH ANNIVERSARY OF HUN SEN'S RULE IN CAMBODIA
Photo by World Economic Forum
Hun Sen has ruled through violence and fear. He has often described politics as a struggle to the death between him and all those who dare to defy him.
“I not only weaken the opposition, I’m going to make them dead ... and if anyone is strong enough to try to hold a demonstration, I will beat all those dogs and put them in a cage.”
In his bloody coup of July 5-6, 1997, he executed more than 100 mostly royalist opposition party members

Human Rights Watch called on influential governments and donors to end their passive response to these decades of rights abuses, repression, and massive corruption, and to make a renewed commitment to support Cambodians who struggle for free and fair elections, the rule of law, an end to corruption and land grabs, and respect for basic rights such as freedom of expression, association, and assembly.

"Women from this caste usually clean dry toilets in homes, while men do the more physically demanding cleaning of sewers and septic tanks." (2014)
They suffer (aside from the health consequences) from discrimination and struggle getting education, water sources, government housing and employment benefits.
They make them work with rain, a death in family even if someone was in labor.
Often they don't get paid with money or are not paid.
