More than 2,000 garment workers have been suspended from a factory in Svay Rieng province for two months, with the company saying it cut employees because the factory had received no orders from buyers amid the Covid-19 economic downturn.
The Svay Rieng Provincial Court placed a 32-year-old man in pretrial detention on Thursday over accusations of defamation, public insult, incitement to commit a felony and insulting the king.
More than 500 hectares, or about 16 percent, of Boeng Tamok, a natural lake in the northwest of Phnom Penh that is key for flood protection, is slated to be filled in and siphoned off to state institutions and private developers, government documents show.
