CDC to approve two major investment projects in Sihanoukville

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.

With pig butcherers.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Wouldn't it be great if they could put a condition on those deals that they complete some of the other abandoned projects & clean up the skyline, or just require they demolish existing abandoned projects & build on those sites...

Or they could just let these go unfinished also. Decisions, decisions.
Meum est propositum in taberna mori,
ut sint Guinness proxima morientis ori.
tunc cantabunt letius angelorum chori:
"Sit Deus propitius huic potatori."

Mainland chinese thinking is the skyline is someone else’s problem. Same with abandoned projects.

Or just a cautionary tale.

Money could be gone tomorrow, must extract maximum value (aka through pig butchering operations) now.

Cambodian is so economically closely tied to mainland China. Many Khmer are struggling that missus knows about.

Meanwhile, the economy is (so far) chugging along in many western nations.
