Cambodia: The Betrayal
Produced by David Munro, Central Independent Television
The
world was horrified to learn of the holocaust which had taken place in Cambodia
at the hands of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge. This film exposes the hypocrisy
of the Western nations which continue to support Pol Pot, despite the atrocities
of his regime. Not only has Pol Pot been allowed to occupy Cambodia's seat in
the United Nations, but the Western nations have been secretly selling them
weapons for use in their civil war. Despite the loss of a fifth of their population,
the resilient Cambodians have made significant strides to rebuild their society.
But they fear the threat of a second Holocaust.
