Re: Cambodian Officials Went to UK to Study Waste Management Systems
Yet another Norwegian who has a problem with the UK. If I recall, your country had Nazi sympathies in WW2 and was the site for their heavy water plant for the Atomic bomb project.
What's your problem?

Re: Why Are There So Many Loser Farang Men in Thailand?
I went to South East Asia because I wanted to tick the 'foreign teaching' gig thing before I hit 30, and gain some travel and life experience. I'm now embarking on a computer career, but I'll still never say never to the teaching. Also considering how miserable the winters are in Britain, it's nice ...

Re: Thank God I’m Back in China
Yeah, fair enough. I just think the country isn't as bad as you said. For me, it just worked. I loved the attitude of the locals, and the daily rhythm of everyday life. My last job before returning to U.K was working at Camed. The English standards there were pretty decent; the students were very we...

Re: Thank God I’m Back in China
I think those are some harsh, unfair words from the OP regarding the KOW. Considering what the country has been through late last century, I think they cope very well. I found Phnom Penh charming and more relaxed than Bangkok; further, I found the Khmer to be more tolerant and less arrogant than the...

Re: British PETER WELLS Detained for No Visa After Menacing Schoolkids
This is pathetic in the true sense of the word-it would be bad enough doing this in a Western 'developed' country,but behaving like this in the KOW is beyond the pale. It gives fellow Brits a bad name.

Re: Looking for cool young teachers for a new international school
Can't see the problem with the OP wanting 'young and cool' staff at the school. And not every one of them is here for an easy ride-bit of a generalization really. I worked 6 months as a private tutor (cycling to work 5 miles and back) before getting my job at CamEd. Some of us do have the work ethic...

Re: British Woman Starts GoFundMe to Get Father Out of Calmette Hospital, Cambodia
Gotta love Rory. Has he managed to control the 'slight' liking for alcohol derived drinks yet? Apart from that he's a top lad. Being a southerner I'm surprised shandy isn't his tipple ;0

Re: "Uppers" without prescription?
Hi Kenneth-
Most pharmacies *Might* sell Ritalin, a pharmaceutical grade stimulant. But I don't recommend this. Just get plenty of sleep and drink water, and don't booze too much.

Re: Norwegian & Croat guy @ Wilkommen Backpackers
No problem Yobbo-I like to buy people drinks. That's my main selling point. He's a lovely chap really. I'll buy his Croatian friend a drink as well.
They used to drink at this big sports bar further down 172.

Re: Norwegian & Croat guy @ Wilkommen Backpackers
Let's just say the Norwegian gentleman can't control himself after a few drinks. As I recall, he is married to a Thai lady.
All I request is his name so I can have a polite chat with him when I'm back in Asia.
