Re: Hello / Anyone for a beer?
Did I say 172 was seedy or "seedy" ?- note the use of quotation marks - it is sometimes considered "seedy" because it was becoming a popular place to drop dead for a while there.
I actually quite like it, but I think VD was talking about avoiding seedy areas or something along those lines.
Good to hear you're having a good time now, VD
(But if you get bitten by a street kid, make sure you get tetanus and rabies shots.
I'm kidding - most of them don't bite.)

So you said it's ""seedy"" not "seedy."

172 is """seedy""", 136 is ""seedy"", 51 is "seedy" and GM is straight up seedy.

I hope you meant "GSM" and not "GM." Both are correct though.MekongMouse wrote:172 is """seedy""", 136 is ""seedy"", 51 is "seedy" and GM is straight up seedy.

Yeah, what he said.MekongMouse wrote:172 is """seedy""", 136 is ""seedy"", 51 is "seedy" and GM is straight up seedy.
And some people even find PP seedy in general - "PP seedy" search gives:

Seedy, "seedy" or ""seedy'''' ??? or total imagination ?I wasn’t sure what to expect. From my earlier visit to Siem Reap I knew that Cambodians were eager to adopt Western dress and capitalism, yet I’d also heard that Phnom Penh was the juvenile prostitution capital of the world.[WTF ??]
Early the next morning we met in the hotel lobby, eager to begin exploring the city. I barely noticed the underage girls in short, tight dresses and high heels, slouching around a big wooden table in a dark corner of the lobby, but Larry did. “I think there’s more going on here than just a hotel business,” he remarked casually as we stepped out the front door and into a blast furnace.

Re: Hello / Anyone for a beer?
In the comments, she mentions the hotel name Sakara, which I googled and found out is "Sakara Hotel and Massage" - lol, so the young girls were probably adult masseuses. What makes no sense is all this BS about being polite. If I actually thought there were underage girls being pimped out of the hotel I was staying, I would inform the authorities and leave right away. So she's either comfortable turning a blind eye or she knows on some level that she's imagining things.Anchor Moy wrote:Yeah, what he said.MekongMouse wrote:172 is """seedy""", 136 is ""seedy"", 51 is "seedy" and GM is straight up seedy.

In fact, reading more of the comments, the latter appears to be true. Observe this backtracking:
So, uh, which is it?Hi Heather: Prostitution with adolescents is a fact of life in Cambodia, however I don’t know if any of the girls in the hotel were underage – most of them looked to be at least 18. I think I would have had a much stronger reaction if I saw it happening with young girls.
