This guy might have overstayed much longer, like five years, if it's the guy I'm thinking of.

I hear he was a model right before he moved to Sihanoukville.

Seriously, I think he was mentioned in another post on the other forum a few weeks back asking about advice for a five year overstayer who wanted to go home. He may get his wish.

Steady on Jamie lol. In my book low life scum are restricted to people who lie, cheat and steal. I know good people who have let their paper work slide. OTOH there are many here who have let their paper work expire who are ' low life bums' Strangely enough most of the worst cases of humanity here in Cambo, have in fact got money and a visa ( or don't need one)...
