...the advantages of reversing into a parking space?
Let's face it, they're going to find out sooner or later, and when they do, they won't thank us for keeping it to ourselves.

You should know, most Cambodians are always right. If you tell them there is a better way, they will argue that they are right. I can think of a thousand ideas which would improve Cambodia, but they will ague the way it is done now is right.
Some people call it saving face. If they are wrong, they lose face, so they always argue they are right.
This is probably the biggest barrier to Cambodia improving.
There are a small proportion of students open to new ideas, and want to improve Cambodia, but those in power dont want you to tell them what to do.
If you dont believe me, go and explain to a tuk tuk driver that people dont like them when they are obnoxious, and see how far you get.
Or just go and explain your idea to one parking assistant, and try to get it implemented.

Yea, I know what you mean. See it happen every day on CEO forum.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
