I'm betting the knife was the means used to get the phone and $320 originally.

At least 241 Chinese nationals have been detained in the first three months of this year as crackdowns intensify in the Kingdom. Statistics indicate that Chinese nationals stand at first place in the number of offences, surpassing Vietnamese, Thai, South Korean and US nationals, said a Ministry of Interior report released on Tuesday.

One thing about Cambodia is there’s always a cop around (in the daytime) and most of them are plain clothes.

One radio call and you’ve got 2000 cops looking out for some dodgy peeps.

And?

Per capita they’re not actually that bad.
They do outnumber all other nationalities.
