Re: What is the benefit of living in Cambodia, instead of Thailand or Vietnam?
I would love to know because I am struggling to see it.

Re: trump in Bangkok
It's funny, but disturbing at the same time. You can barely trust anything you see in the news as it is, but at least if you see a politician making a speech on tv you can be pretty sure it happened. With tech like this out there and getting more sophisticated, I feel like it won't be long before t...

Re: Koh Tao ferry fire
Just another smiling day in the land of [our tourism industry is falling apart] https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-68731765 I've tended to stay away from boats in the KoW & region, way too many boats that just don't look remotely seaworthy, with a ten year old captain running the motor at 10,0...

Certainly once upon a time that was the case with some units Don't know about present day; but suspect not, as the fire services are far larger and better trained and equipped than ever before it's likely ...

Re: Recommended MOVIES
Manhunter (1986)
It apparently inspired the Silence of the Lambs movies; and the parallels are clear

solid 8.1

I will first apply for a one-year visa with Call Kim in June and then go to the bank to open an account. But I don't have a rental contract yet. Can I still open an account? Thank you very much for...
