Penny Wong responded to your calls and we are so thankful to you and to the Shadow Minister for Foreign Affairs for her robust support.

Labor’s now calling on Cambodia to grant Dad clemency. This is an important step towards motivating the Coalition to throw their support behind Dad’s release - and it’s all because of you.

You give us hope.

The legal advice now is for Dad to apply to the royal family for clemency rather than appeal the sentence. This means the support and pressure from the Minister for Foreign Affairs Marise Payne is still vital. I’ll keep you updated.

We cannot thank you enough for everything you do to secure Dad’s release. He’s a human rights defender who has fought for others his whole life, and now we fight for him.
