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.

Damn, seems Facebook changed something, as it's not working for me either, but in the past, I'd just post the link they provide and it works. WTF.

The owner is doing the Khmers a favor by keeping them away from those disease and flea ridden backpacker types. What a sorry lot.

The $8-per-day (TOTAL budget) 'snails' are of the reasons I've come to detest Otres after my recent 4-week visit. Them, and all the stoned 'alternative lifestyle' expat freaks; and, (contrary to all reason) being simultaneously splashed with mud and enveloped in clouds of thick choking dust from the endless parade of huge trucks/cement mixers for the Chinese development projects, make Otres 'paradise-not'.

What a shit hole!
You could be next.

The fascinating thing regarding these comments is that it is quite possible to actually live a fairly respectable lifestyle on such a daily budget if one is clever enough, without the need to mix with such country bumpkins.

There is nothing wrong with anyone fitting such requirements, as long as they are respectable to the people of Cambodia. In regards to not giving a damn about Cultural stuff, well to a certain point (apart from being respectful towards the people), we must realise that Culture is not necessarily our friend....
