The lady and her accomplice were not aware of the consequences of there selfish actions.
They have no understanding of the feelings of locals who pass the bridge everyday.
You are a guest in Cambodia and should respect local laws.
They should both be deported and never allowed to enter Cambodia again ... EVER !!!

Oh please, westerners are not respected because of this? Bullshit.
Locals passing the bridge everyday?? So its ok for locals to vandalize and graffitti?
It happens daily, no one bats an eyelid at them, these are westerners, no diiferent, still people expressing their feelings/emotions, do i agree, no. But do i care? No.
Respect local laws?? Most cambodians dont, why expect others too.
Was it selfish?
In my opinion yea.
Do i see the khmer youth doing it? Hell yes
Does it happen the world over? Yes.
Should they be deported and never allowed to enter?
Get the fuck outta here.
Dont believe me! Ask banksy admirers
I am not a graffiti artist, never pretended to be,or wanted to be, but go down to the old lake area at the back of eden garden. Theres some great street art on display there, these where mainly locals expressing their opinions through art, whether you like it or not its something that happens globally. Here,that particular area is advertised widely because of the street art, believe me, having been there, other than that you wouldnt go there.
This shit goes on across the globe, do you call upon locals of your local area to be villified as much as you have preached here?.
I doubt it.

That just ignorant vandalism usually done by bored disassociated youths on tube trains in London, because it’s usually dark, no lighting and no one around so no chance of getting caught, like these two douche bags.

Stupid act.

Tagging is embedded in gang culture, a bit like animals marking their territory., altho similar in appearance,i doubt this was tagging. Tagging normally overlaps previous tags or graffitti.usually a sign of animosity to said vandal, or a sign of, screw you, this is my territory. In this case that doesnt seem to be the case.
