he s come to almost personalise politics. he sits at the centre of a web of complex alliances with other powerfulfigures, all of whom are ambitious. he s managed, very skilfully, played one off against the other, bought them off, as well. but cambodia s got lots of challenges. it has an economy very dependent on international demand. it has huge inequality, environmental destruction, massive corruption. these are all things that are going to challenge this new and untested man in charge of the country. that was our south asia correspondent. let s take a look at other stories. in india, senior leaders enter parliament for the first time after being reinstated as an mp. mr gundy was disqualified as an mp after court found him guilty in a defamation case in march and sentenced him to two
