The Glue-Sniffing Children of Sihanoukville, Cambodia

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.

That's it. There are plenty of second generation junkies in my home country. I'm glad that I grew up in a stable environment. Can you imagine what it's like to grow up in some shack made of plastic sacks and sticks here with parents that are crazed rice wine drinkers or meth heads? It's horrific and if glue is the cheapest way to get out of that horror, if only temporarily - that's going to seem like a good option.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
