Sam Rainsy, Cambodia's most prominent opposition politician says he's ready to risk imprisonment or death by returning to his country from self-imposed exile to unseat the country's longtime ruler. The co-founder of the Cambodia National Rescue Party, told The Associated Press he hopes his planned return Saturday, Nov. 9, will trigger a People's Power-style movement to force Prime Minister Hun Sen from office.
