We're happy to see that Allan Wolper's excellent interview with Sayon Soeun and Janet Gardner is being repeated tonight at 7:30 on 88.3 FM and on www.wbgo.org. If you missed it the first time, be sure to tune in!
Conversations with Allan Wolper airs at 7:30 tonight on WBGO and www.wbgo.org. His guest is Sayon Soeun. Soeun, once a child soldier kidnapped by Cambodia's Khmer Rouge government which killed over two million people, returns to his homeland to search for his family. The trip is chronicled in the documentary Lost Child, Sayon's Journey directed by Janet Gardner.
On Thursday, August 7, two notorious Khmer Rouge leaders were sentenced to life in prison. Their crimes during Pol Pot's regime in the 1970's included "extermination encompassing murder, political persecution, and other inhumane acts comprising forced transfer, enforced disappearances and attacks against human dignity."
Sayon Soeun and Sopheap Theam, whose lives have been irretrievably changed by the Cambodian genocide, have each made a statement on our website about this long-delayed justice and the feelings it evokes in them.
