Those Living Cheaply Under a Grand

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.

we don't pick and choose, as i stated above. we set it in the system and it's automated... because we can't read every post in a timely manor to pick them out and edit them before they're preserved by his tech team.

personally I don't care WHAT we call him, so long as it's not his name. change it from his name to anything you like and our filters will ignore it.

I'm open to suggestion on the alternative in the filter, I'd just rather it not be a dead copycat of 440.

I don't think he would even know he's being called HE simply because by changing it we avoid his search filters which single sites out for review. not sure if you've followed the news but a nice new draconian internet law is being put into place quite rapidly that could quite likely expose us even further.

Of course I read the news and again nothing I wrote exposed you to legal danger even under the new laws. As for suggestions it's your forum, you fix it.

I am leaving this post intact so that everyone will know what is causing joke for a poke's pucker factor.

If you don't want to use 'HE', and I can understand why, why not just refer to him as (the) PM, that's exactly what he is, no more, no less.

I'm with taabarang on this "HE" is extremely rude and insulting , although i do understand the consequences of libel and defamation. Need a less insulting nickname for the power that rules the kingdom, "God" "Boss""Don" ?

MY first foray into Cambodia was in 1987 and entailed walking across the border near my home in Bo Rai for 2 days with Khmer rouge escorts to the gem mines south of Pailin.
WE would stay for 4-5 days and than walk back out.
KR took 50% of our finds but we still made a shit load of $$$$
Saw your TV series on Discovery recently, glad you made it out of that minefield rice paddy and back into the mine-free jungle. :D JK, sounds like a good yarn.

I have been informed that for future use HE is now the acceptable term.
