Re: American father filing citizenship for son
There are many questions for the OP that will be asked throughout the process-assuming he needs to apply only for a CRBA-What is the status of his citizenship in the U.S.? Is he married? The marriage status is key, especially if planning a return to the States. If he can satisfy the U.S. Government ...

Re: Things you might not know about Raffles Hotel in Phnom P
I have no idea how promotion works in the Cambodian hospitality industry, but in the US it is always from within. So I agree with Cam on that point, but this hardly excuses paying anyone such a low salary. If we are comparing things to the west, then we should also acknowledge that hotel workers al...

Re: Things you might not know about Raffles Hotel in Phnom P
The word 'exploit' is powerful, especially given this scenario in a country rife with varying levels of exploitation. The OP claims that work experience was the motivating factor, not money. After a rigorous (and rightly so) screening/interview process, he agreed by signing off on a "shitty con...
