No-one paid much attention to the Aussie guy who got a few months for a tiny amount of pot, either. And I don't think people realise that one of the Bali Nine is actually a woman, but that's not their fault.
The tragedy is that while the media have busily been doing their best to make things worse for the girls, the young spud in Cambodia might actually have been helped by a bit of media attention. At the very least he should have been able to get a lawyer who could communicate with him.
Also, while the girls have dark hair, I have a feeling they may be at least a bit blonde on the inside.
