Credit where it is due

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.

Meanwhile in the U.S. we had a 9 hour power outage and it was pandemonium. People threatening to sue the power company, people using their cars for air conditioning, driving to other towns to buy ice and fill up their coolers to store their stuffed to the brim fridges, panicking about losing the charge on their cell phones...

In Snookyville/Hawaii beach area yesterday a two hour power outage. They may have a 500 Megawatt Chinese power plant, but we still have the same corrupt Cambodian distribution/administration system.

yeah weve had a few in my area of sihanoukville, one lasted all night and didnt come back on until gone 10am the following morning, but the majority of cuts were just the standard 10minute jobs nothing too dramatic, Siem Reap used to be a pain, used to b a daily thing at my guesthouse

We've had 3 in the past couple of months in BT - not bad, and back on before the freezer thaws.
