Only $20 between them - and 4 Nigerian passports. Note that the Nigerian naira is not acceptable currency for the local law enforcers.[ Just as Nigerian policemen probably also refuse the Cambodian riel.]

Is it just me, or does it seem like Khmer police discriminate against drug dealers?

Hahaha.

I got roasted for saying on the HCMC Facebook page that a lot of Nigerians over here make news as drug dealers. You know, by the liberal, PC, snowflake crowd (sh*t, I am sounding like Sailorboy).
