Plundering Cambodia's Forests | 101 East



101 East investigates how illegal loggers are plundering some of Cambodia's last remaining forests.


Cambodia has witnessed some of the most rapid deforestations in the world over the past decade.

But a brave local activist is desperately trying to save some of the country's last remaining forests.

Leng Ouch has infiltrated logging syndicates across the country and recorded reams of damning evidence using hidden cameras, drones, GPS trackers and informants.

His data indicates an environmental apocalypse carried out by powerful syndicates who seem to operate with near-total impunity on a national scale.
