Hun Sen concerned by Thai architectural influences

Cambodia's Prime Minister, Hun Sen, has issued a warning over too much influence being exerted by Thai architecture in the country's construction sector.

Mr Hun Sen says the government is concerned by the newly imported styles from Thai architecture which have covered up the Cambodian style.

The Cambodian capital is experiencing a minor contruction boom with many newly built houses and villas being layed out with floor and roof tiles imported from Thailand.

But, Mr Hun Sen says this is dangerous to Cambodia's tradition, culture and architecture.
