Another Barang on self destruct mode on 136st

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

I'mnot so sure about your final conclusion of mistake. If the post would have read "tap up" as it does elsewhere this American would have read understood it. After all we use "hit up" with the exact same meaning.

Tapping = fucking in Kiwi/Aussie slang

“Yea bro, I’m tapping that ho” = “yes my friend, I am having intimate relations with that lovely young lady”

“I’d tap dat ass” = “I am extremely interested in having carnal relations with that beautiful woman”

Etc, etc..

Have also heard it used in reference to tapping someone’s beer bottle to make it froth up, but try that in a Kiwi or Ozzie pub and likely to get a hiding.

That's offensive.
