Prime Minister Hun Sen yesterday lashed

a

out at environmental NGO Mother Nature while speaking at a ceremony to inaugurate the Lower Sesan II hydropower dam in Stung Treng province.

The NGO, which ceased operation on September 15 after the Interior Ministry cancelled its registration, had been a strong critic of the government’s lack of environmental protection policy.

“This NGO caused all kinds of trouble,” Mr Hun Sen said. “We could not do anything like this, or like that.”

Mr Hun Sen said the NGO always opposed government projects.
