CAMBODIA: Valuing freedom: PM creates Peace Day to mark success of Win-Win Policy
As part of the Cambodian people’s desire to cherish the Kingdom’s hard-won freedom from years of civil war, Prime Minister Hun Manet has issued a sub-decree to designate the December 29 Win-Win Policy anniversary into an official Peace Day.

HAVING your things stolen is one of the worst things that can happen as it is an arduous process to try and get them back.

Out of desperation, Pumpim Parichat in a Facebook post, offered a generous sum of THB2,000 (RM267.25) to the person who stole her wallet, promising that she would not report the individual as long as her wallet and bank cards have been returned.
