Interesting topic. Most building in Cambodia is shit, obviously. But at least it is cheap. In Australia more and more people are having to buy into apartments under Strata Law. Many buildings are shit with water issues from roofs, balconies and others bathrooms. Owners face special levies of tens of...

It was great! Few hassles, no computers, no CCTV. Bucketloads of cash after returning from trips. Nice cars and motos, plenty of spare time after a few days of stress.

Just found this old thread. Was messaging with an old BF of my ex who sort of stalks her still. He describes her bizarre behaviour in this society and her self loathing.

You want lady? This man must drink with tuktuks. I was there a very long time and no Khmer friend or acquaintance ever said this.

I think another 18 Marines died in a helicopter crash in Thailand on the way. There is a board member who has been there ...

I just logged in with the password KIR gave me after I was banned once and then we made up. Khmer440 was fun, all the old posters. Barone, Ricecakes, Marklatham and Andyinasia. Whatever happened to him? A few have died, most have gone home, many with partners. Taking a slice of Cambodia home is good...

Used to love the BBQ squid and cold cans on Occateul Beach. How much do they cost now?
