“On Sunday 05 September 2021, be ready… receiving news saying Hun Sen is in critical and ready for emergency surgery at Calmette Hospital as medical experts in Singapore stopped providing medical treatment for him.”
What Fact Crescendo Cambodia found
Cambodia’s Prime Minister Hun Sen was not hospitalized for any surgery in early September. The Cambodia’s premier showed up in a virtual summit of the Greater Mekong Subregion hosted on September 9. The image used alongside the false claim was an incident over five years ago while PM was admitted for a regular medical checkup.
