Cambodia News (Kampot): On June 20, 2019, at 3:15 pm, Department of investigation and procedure officials collaborated with criminal police to arrest a foreign man for stealing furniture from a rented house in Sovan Sakor village, Sangat Kampong Kandal, Kampot city. The man rented a house in early June 2019, and the owner complained that he stole 3 beds.

It's actually a very beautiful part of our Ozzie identity , I am now 51 & when i went to school most of us were from a different part of the world & we all became Australians. His name demonstrates the kind of integration that we can be proud of!
Yet Australia being so high on the socialist scale that one is so low bro!!!
Ya let us down Yoong :cry:

I hate to ruin everyone's fun but it appears his name is Ivan Young not Ivan Yoong.

I have deduced this from the fact there is an "Ivan Young" on Facebook who looks just like him and who says he's the founder of "Nomad Working Space" in Kampot.

In which case you would expect him to steal chairs, or tables, or FTP cables, but beds?

How does one can pass the reception desk with a bed on his shoulder and walk away, three times ?

Is it a casual thing to bring your furniture on week end ?

It sounds like he stole from a furnished rental house and not from a hotel or guesthouse.

I simply read the entire OP and there it was in black text on a white background. Way less work, on the other hand, I didn t get to poke around facebook with my Sherlock Holmes hat on.

You didn't read the OP, you read an edited version of the OP, as it was changed after I pointed out his real name.

I'm reading now on the Kampot Noticeboard that someone is reporting that he actually bought the beds from this guy, who said he was selling the beds to raise money to help poor children or something. Then the police came to the bed buyer's place and confiscated the beds and fined him $50.
