" and do not climb with their dirty money around the world, killing him."
Do not build influence around the world with their dirty money. Killing the world.
I think that calls for a song.

Re: The changing face of Cambodia
sorry for my bad english.
I wanted to say - the Chinese are buying the whole world with their money.
and then they destroy nature, the foundations, bring their own order.
and make their next Chinese republic.
The Chinese slogan of our days is "Everything will be soon China!"

Don't apologise Sinus, I like the first version.
Only a Russian could say it so poetically.

...which reminds me, Sinus,
I read lots of scientific docs. Lots. Mostly biology and about the environment.
The only times i have seen words like "beauty" or "pleasure" in scientific papers, they have come from members of the august Russian Academy of Sciences.
I once even saw the word "love" in a paper about butterflies.
No cold hearted western scientist would ever admit to being so human, and it would certainly never get through the peer review process.
Давайте всегда наслаждаться жизнью, как этим бокалом вина!

Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

Correct. Her accent is atrocious

We Russians sing when we feel good and when we feel bad.

‘Everywhere is broken’: how land grabs in Cambodia are demolishing lives
The government has a ‘masterplan’ for the coastal province of Preah Sihanouk, with tourist meccas built on land given to elite families while the poor and powerless face the bulldozers

Sitting on the veranda of a stilted house, a group of Cambodian fishers drink tea and sort crabs into buckets as they discuss when they might have to leave their homes. In 2020, Boeng Thom Angkep, a finger-shaped lake tucked below the forested hills of Ream national park on Cambodia’s south-western coast, was granted to an elite family to develop.
After nearly two decades of peaceful existence, hundreds of lakeshore residents now face eviction. Weekly the authorities cross the rickety footbridges that link the stilt houses to the shore to take photos and warn that demolition could start at any time.
“I don’t want to leave my home for even one day or they might come destroy it,” says 42-year-old Khun Dina. “We’re like small birds in a cage. They can smack us down whenever.”
Theirs is not an isolated situation. A wave of tourism and housing projects is transforming the coast of Preah Sihanouk province. Signs of development are everywhere: Along the curve of Ream Bay, trucks dump sand into the Gulf of Thailand for a multibillion-dollar megaproject called the Bay of Lights, 934 hectares (2,300 acres) to include luxury homes, a beach club, go-kart track, and a reverse bungee jump.
A few kilometres north, excavators dig up a hillside where signs advertise a new gated community overlooking the bay. To the south, cranes loom over the edge of the national park where tourist resorts are being built.
