That music in the video is enough to drive anyone crazy.

I doubt she will get much love for that video. Difficult to say what happened but they're alright guys and I don't believe they would threaten a girl with a beating. So far seems like no one is on her side.

The woman is more annoying than anyone else. Not sure why CEO are pushing this. "Ex owner of Khmer440"? Not sure what handle used to be, but il guessing this is a reason for the wording? It seems like o be all about nothing, but because of phones people try to make a big deal out of it.
Anyways, it's quite common to give cops a bit of money for bothering to show up somewhere (which they gave since it's at their establishment and they probably feel embarrassed their time is being wasted like this). They're not paying for the cops to agree with them. It's a private business so they can most certainly tell her to fcul off the premises. Stupid to give it in plain sight, but it's the way things roll. The woman sounds like a total piece of work and someone other business owners should be wary of.

Hmmm... You seemed to have exercised hypocrisy here: "Never a good idea to come to any firm conclusions based on a video that..." and later remarking "I get that the guy tried to pay off the cop,..."xandreu wrote: ↑Mon Oct 25, 2021 11:27 pm Never a good idea to come to any firm conclusions based on a video that was taken by the complainant who not only had full editorial control over it before it was posted but also had full control over the narrative at the time of posting.
I'm not saying I believe or disbelieve her, but I refuse to come to any conclusion based on such one sided evidence. I get that the guy tried to pay off the cop, but that doesn't mean anything. He had a business to protect, from, for all we know, some crazed woman who had a completely unconnected grudge against him.
6/10 See me after class.
Can't condone that. Surely you could come up with something a little more civilised, particularly when you state you want to get away from confrontations, or is it just the long-winded screeching you dislike and would prefer settlement via multiple shit-kickings, neanderthalic-esk?by sanjuro » Mon Oct 25, 2021 10:31 pm
Absolutely everyone on both ends of the camera/media here needs the shiT kicked out of them, and not by anyone in particular.

I thought the Khmer 440 crowd were all decrepit old cunts.

Re: American MICHAEL BERG (AmCham Board Member) Caught on Video Allegedly Trying to Bribe Police in Cambodia
Interesting bio. No more references to Georgetown University and being part of the political elite ("leaders"...). Also the law studies at Liverpool University have faded, it was anyhow only online. His involvement with that Cambodian company where he was assigned to take care of some products of western companies is also gone. He had also claimed to be the Cambodia representative of those companies which was a stretch. This might have been a problem in the eyes of some European companies. These publicly available details should instill some caution in treating his current claims as reliable.
So let's see: failed student, twice. Then a job with a Cambodian company, courtesy of the (ex?-) wife whom he calls bitch by now. Selling fish and chips at a restaurant for which he himself gives highest mark on google.
The video leaves little doubt. The facts are in plain side. The desperate attempts by some posters to distract from the facts are ridiculous. It is not about a stupid fight in a stupid restaurant. Nobody cares if you dont like the lady. It is not about whether women should be beaten up (they should not, asshole).
The scandal is the money in the hand and reaching for a Cambodian police officer. That's an actionable offense not publicizing it... The officer should be commended. As for the esteemed representative of the American business community: He is not a political mover and shaker, he is not a spin doctor, not a respected representative of a German firm, he sells fish and chips and tries to bribe the police (on camera). Maybe it is time to find a place to start over.

Clearly, he should have given the cop a menu instead "You can order from the left side".
The cop would have (should have) known him, and his standing in the community, so regardless of how many more people she knew than him, I guarantee they aren't at the same level, nor in Cambodia, and perhaps, in this case, she should have carried on digging and tunnelled her way home.
To the poster that implied previous "shady dealings" had been executed by involved parties, the word "allegedly" will keep you out of court.
