Cambodia's democracy is flawed at best. A coalition between the CPP (Cambodian People's Party) and FUNCIPEC (National United Front for an Independent, Neutral, Peaceful and Cooperative Cambodia) is strained. The CPP have a monopoly over the country's rubber resources, despite them being located in FUNCIPEC-controlled territory, and the party wields influence over the army and police, using them to make politically motivated arrests, including that of FUNIPEC's Norodom Sirvudh. FUNCIPEC have corruption issues of their own, with leader Nodorom Ranariddh simply dodging a question on the issue: "Please try on the contrary to give me which country that you cannot find corruption." While this cold war continues at the heart of Cambodian politics, parliamentary politicians are dismissed for criticising the government, and rival parties' attempts to spread their message are quashed. Including interviews with co-Prime Ministers Hun Sen and Nodorom Ranariddh, ABC Australia reports on Cambodia's flawed democracy.
