British Man "Missing" on Koh Rong

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

what are your thoughts on improvements here? Do we think there's a sinister undertone to these deaths or is it just people partying too hard and doing something very stupid? Because if that's the case then they'd just put more "actual police" on police beach just scrutinising what people are up to and just pushing for bribes from anyone caught with certain substances.
My guess is probably some of each, but with a far greater emphasis on the first of your two reasons.
look, these damn full moon/beach party whatever things are just an excuse to get shitfaced and high. They deliberately stick them on island so its harder to police, and if you do swarm it with police no one will come. You can have the party and accidents, or you can skip the party and invite the police :stir:

And here's me thinking they only had full moon beach parties for the sex and rock and roll.,,, Wow , times have changed haven't they.
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.

Yep. When I was young and dinosaurs ruled the earth I managed to get laid without drugs, booze or rock and roll. All you needed was a nice car.... What is wrong with the youngsters today?
