Cambodia's Information Minister has been seen giving local journalists $US200 just minutes after voting in an election labelled a "sham" by rights groups. Khieu Kanarith cast his ballot at Toul Kork Primary School in Phnom Penh.

 

About 15 minutes later, he walked to his car and the ABC witnessed him hand over two $US100 bills, which were later distributed to Cambodian reporters. The ABC confirmed that reporters and camera operators received $US20 each.

 

By chance, another senior official to vote at the school was Om Yen Tieng, the head of the country's Anti-Corruption Unit. He said Khieu Kanarith's cash gift to media was not corruption.

Were? The Cambodians take lessons from their richer neighbour 

Bribe? Bullshit. The dude said he wanted to to give it them. Didn't hide it, received no benefit, just routine in a patronage society. Buy some drinks and meals. $20 is a lot of money in Cambodia, sounds lie the abc guy is moaning about having to pay for his own drinks.
 

Good grief. That's seriously the best story the abc can get from the election? Great value for the Australian tax payer. #fail
