This is for the package/gambling Chinese tours. They block the road with their bus's at the Russian Snake Farm and are funneled into the casinos to blow their money. I believe its also the reason they have torn up the road at and to Independence beach so the Chinese packed bus's can go there and turn around. The road in front of Independence beach is a mess and the area will look sterile like the four lane road in Kep. With all the Cheap Chinese tourists and the Chinese internet gambling scammers working here, its almost a Chinese invasion.

Thy are here in Chinbodia by invitation. Many many more to follow.

Sixty of them live in the complex behind me and walk by my house every day. They walk in in the middle of the main road like they own it and make people drive around them, talk at the top of their lungs and like the Cambo's throw garbage everywhere. Since they are employed by the Japanese/Chinese owned/run Marina/Casino doing Internet gambling scams, etc, I'm hoping that the Chinese authorities fly another airplane here and take the lot home. Yes, more are on the way, but on the other hand maybe the Chinese coming here will break the Vietnam Airways strangle hold on Sihanoukville. Every cloud has a silver lining.
