Angelina is a Cambodian!


I read Straits Times on November 24, 2005

Phnom Penh- Angelina Jolie just became your south-east Asian neighour. Officials said she has been granted a cambodian passport.The actress, who has an adopted Cambodian child, Maddos, has campigned for environmental reforms there and was rewarded with citizenship last Aug.
an interMinistry spokesman said she applied for the passport after she was granted citizenship. Mr Stephan Bognar, executive director of the Maddox Jolie project in Cambodia, said she was "absolutely thrilled" with the passport.
The Project promotes wildlife conservation and development in a former khmer Rouge guerilla stronghold.
She donated more than US$1.5 million(S$2.5million) to the project in the past three years, Mr bognar said.
