Independent Radio Operator Reveals News Hurdles Against His Station

Beehive FM radio director Mam Sonando said the government is putting more pressure on radio operators by requiring their sponsors to go through complicated and lengthy procedures for permission to air their programs. The move has so far turned away some of his potential supporters. Mam Sonando, who also heads the Association of Democrats, urged political parties contesting in the upcoming national election to play a clean game and not to confuse voters with their unachievable promises.    VOA Khmer’s Men Kimseng interviewed Mam Sonando in Washington where he wrapped up his month-long tour to meet his supporters in the US and Canada.
