'Long Diamanche, a spokesman for the Phnom Penh municipal government, told RFA’s Khmer Service that the nearly 12-story mural depicting Moeun Thary holding a sewing needle, had also negatively affected the aesthetics of the neighborhood.

“Although [the image was drawn] on a private building, it was facing the public view,” he said.

“So, more or less, it was affecting the public. The public could see it.”...'

REALLY? REALLY? Did you consult the people and public first before removing it or you just consult only your bird-brain? How did this bird-brain get to hold that position? Did his Daddy pay for that position?
