Karl Bille, a Danish singer/songwriter and well-known actor, is now traveling around Cambodia for the second week along with the organisation LICADHO to inform the population on how they can fight corruption and the growing problems with land grapping, where poor people are forced into giving up their land.
The first trip to the Southeast Asian country made such a big impression on the young musician that he wrote 13 songs about it. The anti-corrupt songs are on his newest record “Love and Eviction”, which is already released in Cambodia end will be out in Denmark next month.
Some of the atrocities, which Karl Bille campaigns against, can be found here:
