Very sad. The change is remarkable. What is it with some of the foreigners in P Penh these days, not to mention SHV? Didn't use to see people completely destroying themselves like this.

the pace of change has gone ballistic this last 12 months.
capital inflows from china are around 5x anything before.
naturally those are loans.
which will not be repaid and the securities seized

I will say that when we were first working in SHV--had to fly in and out as KR was still active on Route 4--it was a lovely, relatively clean and quiet little town. We took rides on our motorcycles to the beach during the day and often, no one would be there except for us. We ate at an open-air restaurant on Sokha Beach, delicious pepper crab, and drank Angkor Beer. Ochateal was very quiet. Our friend Collin, an Australian, had the Eagle's Nest Restaurant and hotel there, and we'd go eat big Aussie breakfasts, much like eating at Mannie's place in P Penh---hearty eggs and sausage and tomato meals. Sihanoukville was a friendly town, a place where the dozen expats who lived there all knew each other. Primarily, ex military alcoholics, aid workers making prosthetics, and volunteer English teachers, along with us---we were the ACE teachers who replaced one female Australian woman who got PG with twins and needed to go home for a bit. Long story there which I typed out, then deleted. Over the years, I've heard more and more negative talk about drugs, suicide, the selling of SHV to the Chinese entrepreneurs. Very sad.
