Re: COVID in Cambodia
My wife and I were going to fly to the U.S. yesterday, she is fine, I was sick but thought I had a sinus infection. Went to the National Institute of Public Health in the morning to get tested, picked up the results at 4pm, flight was to be just before midnight. We both tested POSITIVE. So had to ca...

Re: Do you support Ukraine or Russia?
How can anyone support an aggressor willing to take the world to the brink of a war for what?? financial gains>>>>> YES. How can anyone support unprovoked military aggression? Before any of you point out the unprovoked attack by the U.S. on Iraq, I never understood why people supported that one eit...

Re: Have you ever attended a "death watch"-type ceremony at the home of a dying elderly Cambodian?
The OP is reading way more into this than is necessary, it’ll be way more relaxed than he imagines. There will be a bunch of relatives and most of the elders from the village and the monks, all in all there will be a fair crowd to get lost amongst. Yes it will probably go on for some time, but you ...

Re: compliance of ones mind
Isn't that why people take recreational drugs? It possibly is why some may feel the need to do so, but on reflection that's not what I am seeking in my present state of mind, is a clear vision and thoughts, not that of a clouded drug induced outlook. Neither have I got any suicide tendencies, or I ...

Re: Not just hookers!?!?
…And while some of these women are doing it out of desperation, many of them do have other choices, but would simply rather do the easier job that will also allow them to have that fancy new phone a lot quicker. What other choices? Factory, salon, shop clerk, restaurant, petrol station,...shall I g...

Re: Not just hookers!?!?
What a demeaning misogynistic thread this is. It speaks volumes about some of the posters. OML As mentioned, yes most of the members are male, and each one in a different stage of their life. Granted many may get stuck in one stage a little longer than others, but it is real life. Not as safe or pr...

Re: Student's Mother Asks Teacher $2000 for Hitting Son
We of course don't know all of the facts here. But hitting on the head is never an acceptable form of punishment and can lead to permanent brain damage. That happened to a cousin of mine, who's dad would hit him at the dinner table, and to a Khmer person I know. Using a cane on the hand or the behin...

Re: Happy Pizza
Have a friends who still get good edibles. I am amazed by the amount of people here that regularly munch on the cakes/chocolate brownies and an hour later they are off their tits. I don't get it, sorry, being zombied out at the bar is not my idea of a good time. I bumped into a friend last week, a ...

A couple of years ago I had really severe lower back problems, and found that the only way I could sleep at night was by either taking an opioid, ambien or cannabis, and canna...
