Things seem to be going a bit batshitcrazy at the moment with government aligned news outlet Freshnewsasia publishing a story that Korea-based journalist Geoffrey Cain is a foreign spy because he had dinner with Ken Sokha's daughters.
They also claim he was responsible for the successful overthrow of the last South Korean president.
With this level of paranoia things are starting to look a little weird.

It looks like he was involved with James Ricketson's secret spy cell. Curiouser and curiouser.

There's probably a few ex-special forces rich spies starting to get a bit nervous!

With all this talk in the papers of the CIA trying to topple the government, I reckon that our very one foreign spy James "call me Bond" Ricketson, is going down for a very long time indeed.

There's an interesting article in the Phnom Penh Post about this today:
Government-aligned Fresh News seemingly a bludgeon for ruling party
Government-aligned Fresh News seemingly a bludgeon for ruling party
Since Thursday, Fresh News has republished several posts from a Facebook account named “Kon Khmer” describing a seemingly fantastical US-backed plot to overthrow the government involving the CIA, NGOs, journalists, the US Embassy and the Cambodia National Rescue Party. Party President Kem Sokha yesterday rejected out of hand the “smear” campaign in a Facebook post.
....
Other groups and individuals named include Jackson Cox, former director of the International Republican Institute; Sam Downing, a US Embassy official whom the article claims has a “political marriage” to Monovithya; the Serbia-based Center for Applied Nonviolent Action and Strategies, an NGO that promotes nonviolent protest movements; and the Cambodian Center for Human Rights. All were either unreachable or declined to comment.

From my observation from the last few months, the current ruling party trying to deter foreigners from getting involved in the domestic politics as they are losing ground.

Maybe K440 could have a wip round and buy Ricketson a Predator Drone so he can see what the outside world looks like from his prison cell?

To be fair, Ricketson by all accounts is a rambling fucking lunatic, he clearly has issues. That's why I seriously doubt that any intelligence agency would give him anything other than a wide berth. I thought he might rankle the wrong people but his current situation is bizarre. The curse of Khmer440 is upon him.
