PHNOM PENH -- If Cambodian authorities hoped to intimidate the next generation of activists by locking many of them up, it backfired.
At first, the idea of jail frightened 20-year-old student Phoun Keo Reaksmey. But after 14 months behind bars, the member of environmental activism group Mother Nature, says she's more committed to the cause and determined to make up for lost time.
