@sutaio This is IMO so contemptibly kafkaesque:"Whether this provision will be invoked against men who simply did not know the rule existed is a question the government has so far chosen not to answer."--"When asked what consequences a man would face for leaving without permission, the Ministry offered no answer. Nor has it published any application process, form, or procedural guidance for the[...]men now nominally subject to the rule."

I feel

towards the German regime when I am seeing this.

@cryptadamist For Cambodia, I made criticizing nicknames Concentration Campodia and Chingdom of Scambodia.

The UK and US embassies mentioned helping to release the journalist Mech Dara are in my opinion hypocritical:
1) When I visited British embassy in Phnom Penh, I remember they refused to let me in unless I have an appointment by phone or e-mail. How people, whose phone and money was stolen, are supposed to get in to ask for help?
2) An alleged US citizen complained that he allegedly run out of money and went to US embassy in Phnom Penh for help to pay him a ticket back and promise to pay back the ticket debt later. He claimed they required him to get detained in a foreigner detention centre first which he couldn't, because the detention center required paid COVID test and he had no money. I wrote the embassy a message urging them to stop rejecting the man.
3) When I visited the US embassy about Khmer-English machine translator I made, to ask if they want to support the work, and if they have large Khmer-English dictionaries in their library, I got a very authoritarian, prison-like impression from the embassy and I remember that they refused to let me in with a smartphone for alleged security reason, I had to keep it in a locker, so I couldn't show them the machine translator, and they also had no Internet inside so they couldn't look on their ownsmartphone, again alleged security reason.

In my opinion these behaviours are authoritarian and passive aggressive obstructions.
