Re: Phnom Penh Air Quality
Environmental minister says Cambodia’s smog is solely the result of pollution from rich countries and climate change (aka global warming). As well as denying the forests are disappearing, just that Khmer trees are naturally more slender (and beautiful) than those of other countries. It’s all about t...

Re: Big Khmer event this weekend in the LBC
You haven’t seen the Texas diet on the slender petite Khmer female form. It’s not pretty. Khmer sampot are only sold as a few M, mostly L, XL and up. Really huge crowds for the Long Beach celebration this year (on Facebook). Will go to the local temple this weekend. For some strange reason, missus w...

Re: New $1.5-billion Phnom Penh airport approved
Chinese funding has collapsed in China. Chinese banks are being forced to lend to collapsing business. There is no money left for overseas grand projects. The era of easy no questions asked money is gone. The airport is being completed through public bonds. Hopefully this will mean more accountabili...

Re: Who is the heir...
Does it really matter? Will the next ruler have the political power to stand up to HE and act independently like the King Father did? The current king is a rubber stamp and signs whatever HE has decided for him to sign. Will HE allow the next ruler to actually have his or her own power base to chall...

Re: Israel and Palestinian Conflict
Israel has upset all it's neighbours over the last 75 years preferring to use weapons rather than negotiating and treating its neighbours as equals. As with the Vietnam war, the invaders will eventually have to turn tail and run, not because they are right or wrong, but because world opinion is sic...

Re: Headlines Burma ( yes Aung san says you can say Burma)
So what happens when the Junta is overthrown? Many paramilitary armies with all sorts of different goals on ethnic and other lines. Will they all lay down their arms after years of fighting? Or will the country fracture into multiple states along ethnic lines? Or just become an eternal failed state ...

I support Justice for those who are dying, unjustly So has Hamas handed back all the hostages living or dead, so Israel can stop and go home? Or does Hamas expect Israel to unilate...

Re: Attack on Mexican Embassy
How did police storm an embassy? I imagine Khmer traffic cops attacking the US embassy in Phnom Penh. Don’t see them getting in.

Re: trump in Bangkok
I can see a time when AI will be seen as a powerful political weapon to misinform, disinform, confuse and basically be used as propaganda tool, the likes of which we've never known. Well that's happening already, the Russians don't need AI to do it. Forget the Russians. Mainland Chinese are being i...
