(Photo: Courtesy of Yasith Chhun) Cambodian-American Yasith Chhun was living the American dream in California until the Long Beach accountant hatched a plot to try to overthrow Cambodia’s government. The coup plot flopped, and Chhun landed in jail. We talk to Chhun from a Pennsylvania penitentiary, and to a journalist who has chronicled the tale – Adam Piore.
Listen to the interview at The World Radio.

Chun Yasith had a very good idea, but bad plan. Nonetheless, he tried to SAVE our country.
We should thank him for that.

I adore his effort to save the country from outlaws and crooks. I wish I had known of the plan. Think of JFK trategies.
