On January 12, Freedom House released its findings from the latest edition of Freedom in the World, the annual survey of global political rights and civil liberties. According to the survey’s findings, 2009 marked the fourth consecutive year in which global freedom suffered a decline—the longest consecutive period of setbacks for freedom in the nearly 40-year history of the report. These declines were most pronounced in Sub-Saharan Africa, although they also occurred in most other regions of the world.

Note from KKN: Kampuchea-Krom is currently under the controlling of the Vietnamese government and its map is colored as blue which indicates that it has no freedom of political rights and civil liberties: http://www.freedomhouse.org/uploads/fiw10/FIW_2010_Map_Asia-Pacific.pdf
