Otres Corner Bar (The Last Hippie Standing) in Sihanoukville Has Racist Policy Banning Cambodians From Entering

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.

More hearsay. Was it you that took those dirty dancing photos? You seem fairly certain it wasn't a Khmer guy.
I didn't take the photos...

I'm not certain it was a Khmer guy. I just don't know. It seems unlikely that the pub crawl organisers would sell tickets to Khmer guys but maybe they are dumber than we thought.
F me! That's telling. Did someone do a 180 there? :thumb:
Just don't know. :thumb:
What's the 180?

I think he is mistakenly attributing what Anchor Moy said to you:

Wow. Racist door policy rules. thumbdown
Westerners acting like colonial cts. Creates good feeling toward expats in general. =@

Did they not get enough bad publicity about this last time ?

You as far as I can see you have kept the same perspective ie you didn't regard precluding Khmers as racist, but rather a strategy to protect ones interests, so to speak.
prahocalypse now wrote: Sat Feb 24, 2018 7:59 am I don't know for sure that it was a Khmer dude. IIRC, the reports just said someone attended a pub crawl undercover. It could have been a barang.

Anyway, I don't think the Last Hippie Standing people are really racist. They just don't want to get busted selling drugs.

One thing is certain. Any foreigner who continues to openly sell hard drugs at a time when the cops are rounding up every meth user in the country and the prisons are packed with drug addicts is a complete retard.

Besides, most Khmer minds couldn't take what happens in good barang parties, the local blow outs in Goa are proof to that.
my Khmer friend is very westernised and has spent the past 10 odd years working in the beach bars like Dolphin and Sessions

Hi everybody! My first post here. :)

Been reading here on CEO for some time now & I‘m thankful for this mass of information regarding cambodia since I haven‘t been here all to long.

So btt:

I was really glad to here about a nice bar in SV that played the music I like. So after doing some reasearch I found out that this bar is not a place for me.. it hurts to see a place that‘s called „Last Hippie Standing“ that has this kind of policy. One other thing that hurts is to read post that are on the same kind of level as this bar: i have a manbun, i have fishingpants -but I have soap!! ;) i look like a common backpacker (i came to cambodia with a 25kg suitcase :D).. and reading post that those people are „sh.t“ too - just doesn‘t make you better as that f.cking barowner. There my be plenty of reasons to have that judment, but juging EVERYBODY is like not letting any khmi in your bar.

Just had to let that out. No offence. :)

Can you tell us a bit more about this '' suitcase '' that came with you. Male / female, age , at 25 kg , he / she sounds a bit underweight.

Are you sure you didn't come with a '' nutcase ''.
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.

Or better still, a gang of knife-wielding Chinamen.

According to todays papers the Chinese have moved on from knives. We are now getting Chinese triads having gunfights in Snooky.
of course if the Chinese are getting guns it won't be long before the Khmer have them too .....
