Cambodian Communist State Atheism:
For comparison, the South Vietnamese Government (mostly Catholic):
Good to see modern Communist Vietnam improving:
Oops, you forgot that dictator Ngo Dinh Diem (Catholic) death squad (headed by Diem brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu) that takes thousands of people way at night and no one ever heard of them ever again. And the other brothers, Ngo Dinh Khoi also had governing power, as well as Ngo Dinh Truc the Catholic Arch Bishop of Vietnam.
And, yes the Khmer Rouge were atheist, and its leader Pol Pot were the creation of America (Christian government, put uneducated mad men into power because they perceive to be easy to fool and control).
Sorry , but the American & its Christian backing once started the wars & killing. Now go and read some history.
Yes, it is true that there are human rights that being steps on in Vietnam, and there are some friction between the government and religions however they are allow to practice it as well as having churches and temples. (It is nowhere near the scale of injustice and human right abuse of the SVN dictatorship during the war with full support from America & the Pope.)
PS. South Government (most, I dare say at least 80% of the govern body) happens to be ultra right wing Catholic when they are 7% of the total Vietnamese population, and 80% or more are Buddhist (if I remember correctly the Catholic church claimed that there were almost 11% of the SVN during the 70s were Christian). And, the un-educated moron Nguyen Van Thieu (Catholic) won the SVN presidential election by 103% when not all SVN people voted (don't start me on Nguyen Cao Ky the French & American ass kisser, murderer, and a cowboy)?
