Phnom Penh Centric Forums ?

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.

The forums seem to talk about issues and teh FB pages more about social activities and food places, or is this just my take?

What would cause this, if indeed it is as I see it ?
facebook is people chatting/sharing with each other an not hiding behind some random user name

Forums ( at least k440 and ceo) are 50% good an 50% pure shit ( which is the way most threads evolve into) with random attacks on each other


start a topic an right away its shit :facepalm:

I like to read some good pages in Facebook and I can see my friends' post, their pictures and good way to keep in touch with my friends. And it's where I can relax when I'm free or not go out.
But here is better than Facebook because no one knows us. We can say freely and we can discuss many things. In Facebook , I just click" like", most of my comment is cute! :p... hehehe...
