Cambodia has declared the 22 members of Meta’s oversight board “persona non grata,” preventing them from entering the country, after the board recommended suspending Prime Minister Hun Sen’s Facebook account. The board ruled that a video in which Hun Sen threatened violence against his political opponents violated Facebook’s guidelines. In response, Hun Sen’s Facebook account went blank, and he announced that he would switch to Telegram and TikTok. Cambodia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs accused Meta of obstructing freedom of the press and claimed that the decision was politically motivated. The move has raised concerns about potential restrictions on free speech and the dissemination of information in Cambodia.
