Linda talks with Nate Thayer, the southeast Asia correspondent for the Far Eastern Economic Reivew, about the death of Pol Pot, who was once the leader of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. Thayer interviewed Pol Pot in October and saw his body today in the jungles of north Cambodia. Thayer says even though Pol Pot has not been in power for two decades, many other Khmer Rouge leaders now still hold power in Cambodia.
