Yunang Soma joined other Cambodian sex workers in November 2005 to protest a drug trial for tenofovir, a possible AIDS vaccine. "If the trial is so good, why don't they get sex workers from their own country? Why do they come to a poor country?" asked Soma. The protest led Cambodia's leaders to cancel the trial and oust researchers from the country.
