With more than 160,000 signatures demanding that elephant riding end, and a continued news media presence, APSARA and the Cambodian Ministry of Tourism remains silent. Today, elephant riding at Angkor continues. "Asia Pacific Report asked the APSARA Authority, the Cambodian Ministry of Tourism, and the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Canberra for comment, all of whom were unresponsive" says Asia Pacific Report, in a news article published today 12th May 2016. This silence and refusal to take action cannot last forever - our resolve remains strong, the leaders of the global tourism industry support the movement to end elephant riding, and news media continues to report it - we will continue the pressure!
