Information Minister Khieu Kanharith yesterday ordered the shutting down of the “ABC Three Spring” program, a show collaboratively produced by TV3 and ABC radio, after online criticism of one of its presenters.

The show drew the ire of the public when its presenter CK jumped on the table during a show and snatched the microphone from one of its guests during an episode that aired last week.
