That's very sad. It's shocking how many young adults cannot swim, or not well enough to swim to safety. RIP.

I've had to teach 12 year olds before how to tie their shoelaces, but they knew how to operate a smartphone no problem.

A lot of kids growing up lacking basic logic and life skills these days because their parents would rather give their kid screen time than bother to show them how tie their shoes within the first 12 years of their life or have them attend swimming lessons
If you enjoy noise pollution and obnoxious driving practices, Phnom Penh is the place for you!
