Whats good about Phnom Penh?

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.

I never mentioned LA? Oh for fucks sake stop using annoying abbreviations like COL, that could mean Los Angeles or Colombia!😠

I like Phnom Penh but the pollution and stench is too much at times.

Ahhh...So its a little bit cool now just to post airport codes rather then take the keyboard time to write the name of the city then? ;-)
Gee I spent some time at YLRE last time I was in Australia, got relo's there and all ay!
Then flew in to YBNA because the surf was pumping on the points.
Then flew out of OOL to KUL before coming into PNH
Does that make me cool now?

Ah ha. See you just ain't cool if the shitty little towns you go to don't have airports to abbreviate. Damn, even YLRE, which only has a population of around 3,000 has an airport mate! You need to move to somewhere cooler! :plus1:

Back on topic Latin America is both interesting and diverse. So is Asia. But Asia has changed over the years and not for the better.

It is difficult to imagine that there was a time when Asia was even more corrupt than it is now. Thats a sad, and concerning thought, but would also mean that 'back in the day' or so many years ago there would have been exponentially less expats traveling abroad in these places, and attempting to live in them as there are today, right?

I think you are right thats true that SA is easier to come to terms with and Spanish isn't nearly as difficult - and its helpful - in comparison to say Tagalog or Khmer or something where it will only be used in those native host countries.
