Australians buy up Cambodian paper

Two Australian businessmen, Ross Dunkley and Bill Clough , who have media interests in Burma, have purchased a controlling interest in the fortnightly Phnom Penh Post, Cambodia's best known English-language newspaper and its most independent. The paper was launched in 1992 by an American, Michael Hayes, who plans to stay on as editor-in-chief for another 18 months. (Via The Australian)
