Kohsantepheap Daily (also Koh Sante Pheap or Koh Santepheap) is a weekly newspaper published in Cambodia. According to the Media Ownership Monitor, it is the most widely read paper in the country.[1] It was founded in 1967 by Chou Thany. During the Khmer Rouge, publication was shut down and Thany killed in the Cambodian Genocide.[2] It resumed operation in January 1993, owned by Thong Uy Pang and Yin Phanny, husband and wife who also served as editor-in-chief and manager, respectively.[1] In 1998, Pang was shot while at a temple, blaming "powerful politicians in the present government."[3] Their daughter, Thong Sovanrangsi, took over management, and in 2005 Pol Saroeun replaced Pang as editor.[1] It has ties to government via the Cambodian People's Party, and shares employees in common with the Interior Ministry, giving the paper access to stories about crime it has become known for.[1] Liu Yangyue cites it, along with the Phnom Penh Post, as an example of news "under control of the government or individual politicians", a claim which the owners and editor denies.[4][1]
