Voice of Democracy
Voice of Democracy (Khmer: សំលេងប្រជាធិបតេយ្យ; abbreviated VOD) was an independent news agency based in Cambodia. VOD has provided significant investigative journalism within Cambodia, providing coverage on domestic issues including corruption, government wrongdoing, human rights violations, and environmental destruction, which have drawn the ire of Cambodian officials. Following the Cambodian government's media crackdown in 2017, VOD, alongside Radio Free Asia and Voice of America, became an increasingly important news source for Cambodians. It was shuttered by the Cambodian government on 13 February 2023.
