An official in Cambodia is calling for government action against ISPs in response to a recent craze over transmitting "faked-naked" celeb photos via cellphone.
The local press in the mainly Buddhist nation has been in a frenzy in recent weeks over the sudden spread of pornographic images by phone after the mother of a pop singer spotted a photograph of her daughter sent to a phone.
While the government is powerless to monitor what images people are sending to each other by phone, Minister of Women's Affairs Ung Kantha Phavy told a press briefing that it should shut down indecent websites.
We "ask the government to block Internet ISPs which are used to transfer pornographic images, show sex sites and chat sites," she said, speaking after talks with legislators and non-government organisations on pornography.
