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.

British couple reportedly did a runner from Kampot hostel.

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

The owner of Karma Traders hostel in Kampot posted yesterday on social media that a British couple, both aged 25, had left without paying their tab.
Thats not a nice thing to do. They may be heading for Sihanoukville or one of the islands.

Immigration doesn't put backpackers on any list for ripping off a Kampot hostel for forty dollars.

Cambodians rip off westerners daily but as soon as a westerner runs out on a bar tab is in the news or social media.

SEA is rife with Double standards.

And exactly what are they supposed to report? ‘Beware of Srey Neang or Sreymom or (any other common Khmer name) selling pineapples in Central Market. She ripped me off for 50 cents. Girl looks like a Khmer girl working in the market.’
