Koh Rong
Anyone notice the vastly disproportionate number of deaths occurring on this island over the past 6 months or so?
Almost like there is a serial killer living there.

It's been mentioned on several forums, it is indeed creepy. Very creepy.frank lee bent wrote:Anyone notice the vastly disproportionate number of deaths occurring on this island over the past 6 months or so?

Re: Koh Rong
I had intended to visit a friend there in a few weeks.
Canceling that idea.

Re: Koh Rong
Very sinister goings on it seems. Reminds me in a way of the Parvati Valley in Northern India during a time of murders and missing persons over a ten/fifteen year period. Rumors would abound of drug cartels, a crazy murderer living in the valley, bandits and the like with no-one being arrested. Central America seems to be experiencing a spate of western murders recently (mostly young women) as well. I guess there are always going to be dark spots for travellers/expats who live in regions of relative poverty.
The idea that seeing the world is going from place to place to look at obvious things is an illusion natural to dull minds.

Re: Koh Rong
Perhaps, perhaps also it's due to the party lifestyle of those who go there. It seems to have become rave island to some degree.

I recall Charles Sobrhaj in a rather similar setting.

Re: Koh Rong
His was an amazing story, he wiped out quite a view backpackers at his guesthouse in Bangkok by slow poisoning and if I remember correctly a couple were dumped in Pattaya and due to non-identification were buried by the authorities before proper autopsies were performed.frank lee bent wrote:I recall Charles Sobrhaj in a rather similar setting.
That's what was concerning when that first 50+ US lady was found on Koh Rong, natural causes assumed and then at insistence proper autopsy concluded murder.
Is it about 4 recent strange deaths now ?

I'm heading to Koh Rong this weekend. If you don't hear from me, send out a jungle search team.

FOUND!
She has reportedly been found. I can only assume what is a friend just updated their "Looking For" post on the facebook groups. I tried to find the Facebook link but I couldn't seem to locate the thread again.
Likely true, I am glad another young person didn't fall victim to El Diablo Rong
