You need to know who the owner is related to as if they are in the purple circle and you take legal action you will end up paying some consequences.

Like most things in Cambodia any possessions you have should be expendable as there are never any guarantees here of anything. =@

He means don't park your moto near a mountain lest it gets damaged by an immense rolling boulder. Metaphorically, of course, the mountain is the parking garage, the boulder is the parking attendant and you are Sisyphus who is now consigned to an eternity of useless efforts and unending frustration trying to gain damage compensation. or something along those lines.

You might get them to pop the dent out of the tank with compressed air,buy a new mirror , new brake lever, locally sourced, and a tube of glue for the fairing but I'll bet you won't get more than that.
