fixed that for you..AmericanSteve wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 8:21 am But why is an EXPAT leading the charge against powerful interests to save Cambodian forests?
Cause he wants to and Khmers are more interested in the here and now, ( putting food on the table NOW) , especially poor ones.
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Well thank God those poor hungry Khmers have an enlightened expat who knows what they REALLY need and is here to save them from their own stupid inclinations for food, shelter and what not.Cause he wants to and Khmers are more interested in the here and now, ( putting food on the table NOW) , especially poor ones.

I'm not arguing the merit of what he's doing. I'm saying he lacks standing, which is polite for he should mind his own business and work on cleaning the mess in his own back yard.AmericanSteve, do you understand the meaning of "wildlife sanctuary"?

You gave to admire the bravery of someone taking a stand against deforestation and extinction of wildlife. It’s time to get out though.

Anti-logging is an environmental concern and he comes from a country that is the 2nd largest emitter of greenhouse gasses. Maybe he can focus his reform minded energies on lowing greenhouse gas emissions in the USA.What is this mess in his own back yard,,that you talk about.

I admire his courage but I also admire that Aussie girl in SR who just smiled after her bar was raided for weed related activities and I also admire that crazy man who wouldn't return the cow. All that admiration and they are still both in jail.You gave to admire the bravery of someone taking a stand against deforestation and extinction of wildlife. It’s time to get out though.
