Bad Moon Rising

This is the part of the forum where we discuss Cambodia's nightlife! While most bars, nightclubs, pubs, beer gardens, and hostess bars are in Phnom Penh, we discuss the Cambodian nightlife across all of Cambodia, including Siem Reap, Kampot, and Sihanoukville. The main nightlife areas in Phnom Penh are on Street 136, Street 130, Street 110 and Street 51, but there are other party spots that aren't girlie bars where expats, tourists, and locals drink until the sun comes up. Feel free to post specials and promotions that relate to nighttime fun!

Same. If anything, I actually found that COVID, while sadly destroying many people's livelihoods, had brought back a human element to this area that was being lost in transactional nature of interpersonal relationships made in tourist hubs, and I hope that this country eventually moves to higher economic activity than tourism if only to prevent it from losing its soul
I think we (expats, tourists) underestimate the hardiness of the locals. They have been through tough times many many times before. They always pull through or diversify.

Maybe this post should be re-homed into: Assinine/The Man Friday Soliloquies.

If we mix pure negativity and cynicism with unbridled enthusiasm and fantasy, maybe we'll get something close to normal.

Just a thought.
