Re: Six Cambodians arrested after beating Turkish national UFUK ÖNTÜRK, 53, to death for hammer attack

What kind of foreigner stays in village 10? I can't think of a worse place to stay in miles. Not blaming the Turk, just wondering what he was thinking of staying around there at all? Not all barangs in Cambodia are rich expats. Are people from Türkiye even "barangs"? How white and/or West...

Re: Six Cambodians arrested after beating Turkish national UFUK ÖNTÜRK, 53, to death for hammer attack

I'm merely assessing this situation based on eyewitness reports and the news, same as everyone else: If anything has anything else to add, then perhaps I was hasty to judge, but based on this information alone, it sounds like he was dealt with accordingly: None of us would let a man with a hammer a...

Re: Riverside - October 2023

I walked through Wot Botum park, and along the prom passed the palace to street 148. They may have cleared up most of the rubbish, but they need to do some serious cleaning of the pavements, they are caked in filth. A few days and a few teams with pressure washers and it'll be shining in no time. I...

Re: Riverside - October 2023

Why wouldn't posters share their opinions on the fireworks, ken? Are you one of those toxic positivity types who force those around you to pretend to be happy about everything all the time? Anyway, my question is why were there so many heavily armed police marching up and down the streets? Is there...

Re: Riverside - October 2023

I had attended the Water Festival in Siem Reap a few times but never in Phnom Penh. I am not big on crowds but I figured that I had to check it out. Walking from the Hotel Cambodiana wasn't too bad at first, but once I reached Chaktomuk conference hall, things got a little busy. I did see of the ra...

Re: Riverside - October 2023

I I walked back after the fireworks. We went back past the palace as Riverside was just way too packed. I had a flip-flop blow-out soon after leaving, had to make my way barefoot. Luckily ot was nothing like say New Year's Eve in Germany, where the streets would be covered in broken glass. Great re...

Re: Riverside - October 2023

On riverside itself it is a glorious spectacle. The road is closed to all traffic and people are strolling along the full width of the road and the promenade. A one hour long fireworks display has just ended and a procession of superb illuminated boats glide by. It’s as good a show as you would see...

Re: What are monthly living costs?

I get through about 2500 a month, family of 3, kid at int. School, we dont go flash but i say we have a nice lifestyle. I dont touch streetfood, to many times being ill. Mainly home cooked meals, but we go out at least once a week to a restaraunt. We do get thru a lot of wine and beers though.
