I may or may not have just witnessed a homicide outside Wat Ounalom

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.

I don't know how to call the police in Cambodia. Had I been sitting at a rooftop bar in Pittsburgh watching someone being beaten to death, it's as simple as calling 911.

Lord knows it's a very common occurrence that someone is beaten to death in Pittsburgh too! Thank god for 911.

Then I hope if one of you is attacked and left laying seriously injured in the street that nobody calls for some fucking help. Somebody working in the restaurant might know the phone number to call if you would only have asked. But no, you couldn't be bothered to do even that.

And not a tuktuk driver / policeman in sight. Very unusual.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

That's pretty mean spirited of you Stinkman, to hope that the OP gets kicked in the head several times. And he already said there were literally tons of people around there.

I just explained this situation to the GF, and asked her what she would say if I asked her should we call the police, and she said no. And that its best to have as little interaction with the police as possible and mind your own business. Then she said there's so many kinds of police she doesn't even know which one to call.

The dynamics are different if it is white on Khmer/Khmer on white/Khmer on Khmer/white on white. A little hard to compare
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.
