Re: What Was Your FIRST POST on CEO/Khmer440.com Expat Forum

I was in the middle of what seemed like a serious fuck-up because a whole load of detectives had piled into my house and ripped the place to shreds. I posted asking if Siem Reap was a good place to live, because I'd been offered a job there, and had been there before. Thank fuck I was given good adv...

Well if people didn't want to see any of them anymore, why are there framed pictures of them at a shrine, and why is anyone posting photos of them?

Re: 84% Of Vegetarians & Vegans Return To Eating Meat

I was vegetarian for most of my 20's, and vegan for a couple of years somewhere in the middle of those. It was all very well while I was living in London, but became very difficult when I started roaming the European continent. As for Asia, India is simple enough to be vegetarian in, but not always....

Re: French tourists arrested for nude photos at Angkor Wat

Is there no moderator on this forum ? Please remove immediately this totally irresponsible post, which makes available names and passports. It's already been reported in the local press, so there is no reason to remove it. If the perps are that sensitive about having their details online, perhaps t...

Not India. Those "Kbach" or decorative elements you can see in the carvings are unique to Khmer art.

Re: American Drunk Driver Injures 4 People on a TukTuk and F

Gen Mack once made a very funny suggestion to me -- go from bar to bar copying down the names of the expat proprietors off the business licenses on the walls. Then Google their names to see how many are fugitives. The problem is that most bar owners are Khmer, particularly with respect to hostess b...

Re: Please confirm..eVisa converted to.....

It is possible, the agent will have to take the passport to a border, get it stamped out and then brought back and a E-class visa put in. This is a procedure that is tricky and illegal and so costs quite a few dollars.

How do you figure that? As far as I can see only a handful of sites like Khmerization and Ki-Media are blocked by certain ISPs (and not others). They should be blocked anyway as they are just spreading stupidity.
