Western NGOs are detestable liars

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.

AM, I'm not sure if you banned ES, as he posted after your comment. But the idea of banning such an intelligent and insightful member is imo quite ridiculous. His posts are, in the main, to the point. You may not like it, but many others do.
Of special interest to me, was his post about the approaching showdown between digital coin banks and the traditional banks.

No one has banned ES.
Why would they?
although the thread is a little rambling ranging in targets from NGO's to banks and Satan with some bitcoin thrown in,certainly nothing ban worthy.

I thought the Satan/Lord Saviour post was a little weird, although he could have just been taking the piss out of it, but I did enjoy his post in response to some questions I had on bitcoin as it made sense and answered some of my questions.

I'm not saint either when it comes to rants, I've made a lot of them on TOF, so...well, whichever, not sure where I was going with that.

Anyway sounds like I am late to the party 1990-2010 is where the money is at. Those latte sipping the I need 4hp a/c monkeys doing my mission vision reports in the comfort of my office. I screwed big time an NGO a couple of years ago, I wrote about it before. basically the donates from from Europe govt and individuals talking about over 150 million pounds here...all of them locals and foreigners dipped their juicy fingers in. they ganged up and kicked me out to keep the money for themselves.

The only genuine org since I came here in 2009, the oz lady sold her house in Oz and other properties and took care of the abandoned children....and had a local who she thought shared the same caring...shortly after he took the land, the building and a few other things as it was under his name. The moral of the story is nothing good ever came out of this NGO business unless you are a selfish bastard.

Do we know the NGO to which *the duck* refers?

Anyway, there are scores of 100% legit NGOs run by fine decent people on very thin shoestrings.

Lol. I was just telling him to stop trolling his own threads or piss off. I didn't have any cat memes handy.
You say:

Can you tell me what was the point of this thread then ? My point was that there should be a "discussion" on whatever topic ES wanted to discuss, but since he went from NGOs and schoolteachers to bitcoins to "Since I kneel in all humility for his Lordship, Master of both worlds" in 3 consecutive posts I presumed he was trolling. Either that or he has a short attention span.

Sigh. I should have just found a cat meme.
