American Reporter for The Khmer Times Knocked Out with Gas & Robbed in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

So you think Belson was a gas? :?

Nobody finds it weird that the writer claims that gas was administered via two small electrical cables?

I find it quite weird and at the moment don't believe it. She doesn't say where those cables were found. On the street? In her room?

It's not easy to mistake Jensen Button for Richard Hammond. It happened to Button in Monaco, apparently.

I'm no expert on gas delivery mechanisms, but I'm pretty sure that gases can't be delivered through the crude electronic device in the pictures.

I don't know what it is, it could be an electric shock device or a pipe bomb, I'm thinking more just pile of junk though.
The whole story sounds sketchy. Like that neighborhood in the pictures.

Not sure how this is exactly possible, wouldn't it require a good amount of gas to permeate a whole house in all the rooms? Hoe do they know this is what happened? If it happened to me, I would be shaken to my core. That freaks me out.

Hmm, not sure what's going on. I guess anything is possible. No idea what those wires are.

It is a sick society when a lot of these criminals pay off the police, and the police want to continue receiving money, not stop the crime. In some cases police may be directly involved.
