immediately he's even put troops at the border between thailand and cambodia. staying with a story phil robertson is the deputy asia director at human rights watch he says the government should allow the leaders to return and freely resuming the political activities but i think it's highly unlikely that it's going to allow them into the country much less let them go from the airport to the border overland to. sort of organize market workers come march across the border we have seen actually on the right cambodian border that there are posters everywhere with photos and the names of these cambodian exiles saying that they will be arrested if they are brought across we've heard information about consultations going on between the thais and the cambodians about the situation. so our assessment right now is that it's probably highly unlikely that they're going to be able to get into pilot much less get to the border cambodia is trying to bully all its neighbors to keep c n r p x files out or to arrest them and send them back we don't think that anybody is going to

investigation into the decline of democracy and human rights in cambodia and potentially the e.u. will withdraw tariff free access for cambodian goods to european markets because of those problems in the country and one of the demands of the e.u. is that kim should be released from house arrest and all charges against him dropped well we've seen a step in that direction with his release being granted by the courts but still many restrictions remain on him the charges remain the case is ongoing he can move around the country can travel but he cannot leave cambodia and his political rights remain suspended. how much for a boost will this give the opposition. i think undoubtedly it will provide a boost but the government under prime minister who incentive has been in power for 34 years has been very methodical over the last few years at rounding up dissidents political opponents particularly in the last few weeks actually since the move by sam rainsy has been planned to return to the country in the past couple of weeks we've had at least 60 people 60 members of the cambodian national
