Скачать или смотреть RFA journalist: 'I could think about was how America was a safe place for us'

Vuthy Tha worked for RFA's newsroom in Cambodia before it was closed by Prime Minister Hun Sen's authoritarian regime in 2017.

Vuthy knew he had to leave Cambodia because the government monitored his movements.

It took him seven years to obtain a work visa and rejoin RFA.

"On my flight to America with my two children, all I could think about was how America was a safe place for us," he said.

On March 15, the federal grant agreement that makes it possible for RFA to operate in Asia and globally was abruptly canceled. RFA filed a lawsuit on March 27 to restore the funding mandated by Congress. We thank all of you for your support for RFA and its mission.
