Pedophilia in Cambodia: penality is not harsh enough

The Cambodian national newspaper, the Phnom Penh Post, reported today that the 62 years old Swedish pedophile was found guilty on the charges of sexually molesting multiple boys for the past two years. He, based on the report, was sentenced 6 and a half years in jail and fined  US 963 dollars.  The victims included two boys who were trying to sell souvenirs on the beach and a 9 year old boy who the pedophile claimed to be an adopted son at the time of arrest. However, though the improvement on Cambodia's pedophile crackdown is laudable, a pedophile receiving 6 and a half year long jail term and $963 dollars for fine at the expense of molesting three boys for the past two years is a slap on a wrist.
