The banana ghost is not an Ap. It comes from a specific type of banana plant, so they must be planted a certain distance from your house. https://i.imgur.com/7s7NnBI.jpg That's the one. I'm not sure why my Mrs associates it with the bananas with seeds. Yeah now that I think of it the aaps are thoug...

My Khmer better half says they're bad luck. Or more specifically the trees from which bananas with seeds grow. There's a Khmer ghost tale (and movie inevitably) about a female ghost (or possibly an "aap"... the floating torsos with entrails hanging down..I think they're always female) that...

Good grief!... Stuff of nightmares for a potential homebuyer... Jesus...

I think the point in hard title is an important one. There was a story a few years ago where a developer sold off borey units then used the hard title for the land as collateral to start the next project. The next project failed and the bank took back the land from under the people who has paid the...

I’ve little to add, but we looked at a couple. One in particular stands out as it was torrential rain at the time. We couldn’t hold a conversation, it was that loud. The flat roof concept was a big red flag. The water was not able to fully run off without a broom, and there was evidence that some r...

@rogerrabbit has said pretty much exactly what I was going to. Reference the hard title, many borey developments don't actually subdivide the land and get the individual hard titles for each plot until the development is completed, which can be risky. Also note that if you purchase it on a payment ...

Go with the borey.. buying land and building is expensive as heck... As for the title definitely make sure its hard and its transferred when all paid for. The need faith in the company but if it makes you fell better other khmers will be in the same boat. Delays and budget overrun when building fro...

- Only buy a house with a hard title. - Don't buy house with a flat roof. Most boreys are low quality and flat roofs are sure thing to start leak within a year or two after completion. Heck even pitched roofs have problems here. - Preferably buy only from a big borey developer who has build multipl...

Hi, I’m looking for some advice on the pros and cons of buying a “Borei” unit. It would be in my long-term girlfriend’s name. (Can I respectfully ask that replies could be kept to the topic at hand – as opposed the wisdom of shopping for property on behalf of Cambodian partners?. We’ve been living t...

The locals are right if they are discussing this as more than just the usual sorry escapade involving a drunken foreigner. Let's imagine for a moment what the the Murdoch media would make, in the English-speaking countries, of an incident involving a foreigner with a prior history of violent crime t...
