Re: More Chinese Takeover in Sihanoukville
Haha, no, they're not sunk yet. They closed last weekend to organize a new place, but are still open for business. They should remain open for another couple of months until the end of their lease, but are opening a new place on the islands at the same time.
At least thats what they said about 2 days ago.

Hey JL. Just saw that someone said on fb that Titanic closed last night. That would be weird, but anything's possible. I'll check it out.

Re: More Chinese Takeover in Sihanoukville
How can the leap be made the Sihanoukville will cross from being a land of Chinese casinos into a tech hub like Silicon Valley or Singapore? Is Iron Man planning on building a few dozen world class engineering schools to make it so?
Even with all the technical expertise of CCTV guiding them, Cambodian media is gonna have a hard time selling this idea.

Re: More Chinese Takeover in Sihanoukville
The casinos, hotels and hordes of chinese tourists are perhaps the more visible aspects of the city however the Special Economic Zone at the moment is only at phase 1 and they have a long way to go to phase 3...newkidontheblock wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 11:19 am How can the leap be made the Sihanoukville will cross from being a land of Chinese casinos into a tech hub like Silicon Valley or Singapore?

http://www.ssez.com/en/company.asp?Ione=3SSEZ has finished the initial phase of the development area of 5.28km², with textiles and garment, bags and leather products, hardware and machinery, wooden products as the leading industries. In the second phase, we will give full play to the advantage of port-vicinity and will mainly bring in industries such as machinery, equipment and construction materials. SSEZ will finally be built into a well-facilitated, fully-functional, ecological model industrial zone with 300 enterprises settled in and 80 thousand to 100 thousand industrial workers, thus will become the "Shenzhen" of Cambodia.
So yuh, it does look like a huge leap at this stage but he didn't say how long it would take...did he?

If the EU EBA is stopped most of these operations will cease and the Special Economic Zone will collapse.
The treason they are setting up here is to make use of the cheaper access to the European and US markets.
If they want to screw China then stop the EBA and the US tariff free deal.

Re: More Chinese Takeover in Sihanoukville
Titanic is confirmed closed. Not surprising, even though they said they would slog on when we were talking earlier this week. They had problems with power and water cuts, and also a shitload of noise and dust from the enormous building site across the street. I remember when they opened, seems like yesterday.Jamie_Lambo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 3:56 pmmy news source came from facebook tooAnchor Moy wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 7:27 am Hey JL.

When I ate there the Cordon Bleu was terrible. Christ knows what the brown goo was supposed to be. The steamed fish was good but they were unable to get it out to the table in less than 90 minutes. Have they moved to Koh Touch?Jamie_Lambo wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2019 5:45 pmyeah, they did the cheapest Cordon Bleu ive ever seen $3.50 and it was pretty decent n allAnchor Moy wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2019 12:14 pmTitanic is confirmed closed.

Cordon Bleu was good. I am friends with the sister of the owner, used to work with her in shv. A shame it's closing
