Been wondering why Jinja.Apsara.org has been so quiet?
I’ve been busy with http://QuickDraw.me of late, and I’m pleased to announce, coming soon:
A new ‘best of’ collection, this Saturday!

Today’s Cambodia Daily noted that municipality of Phnom Penh AND the Ministry of Information has ordered a spate of apocalyptic Christian billboards (put up by ‘Cambo Advertising’ company) in Phnom Penh to be removed. (They were originally to be taken down on Saturday, prior to rapture.)
The one featured here on the Tonle Bassac building says ‘Pray Strongly To God’ and notes ’21 May 2011′. Personally? I’m just waiting for the Monday morning interviews.

On the face of it, it seems Prach Ly’s Mujestic.com web site looks likes it’s been hacked by Cambodian group Klap Ya Handz.
Prior to Thursday 12′s revamp, the site header looked like this, followed by a long scroll of the people and groups working with Mujestic, from traditional musicians to activists and filmmakers. (May still be available on Google Cache.)
Yet: It’s not a sophisticated hack at ALL. There’s no link *back* to a Klap Ya Handz site. (Whoops, under construction. They’ve got a Facebook page and YouTube Channel). They even forgot to take off Prach’s mailing list. The meta tags still indicate Prach’s key words. Whoever made the replacement page used a free website builder. Classy.
The FB page has a hoax picture of Prach hijacked, but it’s not his face photoshopped in – usually the sign of malicious hacking.
Would KlapYaHandz delete Mujestics sub-pages promoting artists like Laura Mam that they’ve shared the stage with? Or links that promote the broader Khmer creative community? Smooth move.
I’m guessing it’s a publicity stunt. What better way to get more listeners and attention than a hip hop feud, real or imagined? Who ‘hijacks’ a site with an anti-hate message? Hmm…
And if it was real, well, everyone knows that the powers that be stay in power by keeping people
divided. Just sayin’.

I’m doing a regular daily comic at http://www.quickdraw.me. New decade, new site, new comics.
Yesterday’s was about “Victory Day On The Genocidal Regime“. Tune in for more about living in Cambodia – and whatever crosses my mind.
