Nice picture.
I wonder, did you see the movie “S21: The Khmer Rouge Death Machine” about the re-education camps.
The filmmakers were looking through old photobooks they found at the camps and they had pictures of the visiting commandantes, who all had huge toothy grins like that guy.
The only other place I’ve seen a grin like that is on Obama.
“Opposition in some cases has been based on sincere and deeply held beliefs,” Obama said. ....
“Shifts in hearts and minds is possible,” he said. “And those who have come so far on their journey to equality have a responsibility to reach back and help others join them.”
