A single expat lady new at Phnom Penh

Ask us anything. Cambodia Expats Online has a huge community of long-term expats that can answer any question you may have about life in Cambodia. Have some questions you want to ask before you move to Cambodia? Ask them here. Our community can also answer any questions you have about how to find a job or what kind of work is available for expats in Cambodia, whether you're looking for info about Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, or anywhere else in the Kingdom. You're also welcome to ask about visa and work permit questions as well, as the immigration rules change often, especially since COVID-19. Don't be shy, ask CEO's community anything!

Right, a thief comes out of nowhere and snatches your bag (with the pepper spray inside it, obviously). Or, if you do hold the pepper spray in the other hand, you blast after the departing thief, ending up with all of it in your own face.

I see how that would work :no:

I was replying to her OP which wasn't about bag snatching but rather "is Phnom Penh safe" .

Instead of trying to be a smart-ass, take that time to improve your horrible reading skills.

KK Thanks

The friendliness on this forum is amazing. Must be full moon or something.

Prior to your post, most posts were about bag snatching, so maybe it is not me with poor reading skills.

Thanks.

i have sprayed myself with that shit more than once unintentionally- as if you would do it by intent.

i will get a zapper next and just duct tape it to a walking stick.
maybe use two, one in the head and one in the foot.

get some jackie chan style action on multiple assailants.

that or a very sore leg and convulsions when it gets me.

weapons really have a mind of their own.
