The Buzz | Cambodia PM says his potbelly is hurting his golf swing

Hun Sen says his growing potbelly is getting in the way of his golf swing.
The Cambodian premier, who is known for his casual comments, went off track yesterday while responding to a Facebook comment on his health to talk about his weight. He said someone had reposted on Facebook a 2-year-old video clip purporting to show he had suffered a stroke.
“If you need to broadcast the news of the prime minister’s health, you better say that the prime minister is worrying about his belly that is now getting big,” Hun Sen said in the southern Kandal province.
“Don’t say that the prime minister suffered a stroke. Better say that the prime minister is worrying his weight is increasing and at the same time his belly also getting big, which makes it difficult for my swing while playing golf.”
Hun Sen, 64, went on to say that he has put on 3 kilograms in recent days.
