More Chinese Takeover in Sihanoukville

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Friends who previously went to Snookyville for holidays to escape PP say it is getting too expensive for them.
Sad when a counties citizens get to take second place to foreigners.
Watch out for the Chinese man!!!

Maybe they're Chinese Expats. hehe
It's all good or or it's no good!

@Jamie_Lambo I thought I'd sent you a PM of thanks for the LK tour a few days ago but it seems to have disappeared into the ether. Anyway, I had to get to Bangkok a couple of days early so missed a second run to LK. Thanks to you and your bud. "Kink Club is, well, . . . LOL. :beer3: One thing, LK is cheaper than Bangkok on booze alone. Next time :hattip:

Back to Vietnam next weekend.

I’ve read those man Kong bar posts. Or I should say I stopped after a while because they so repetitive.

As I understood it the owner offered $60k, then was ordered to pay $100k then $300k but said he doesn’t have it!
WTF!
I went to that tiny Kong bar a few times. Average at best with girls on their phones and looking miserable.

She should have accepted $60k.

Well done. LOL. I'm also considering Naklua in the next couple of months. Got a couple of friends in one of the Lumpini Villes. They love it there.
