Re: Water Shortages in PP

I'm afraid this is just the beginning. Every year less rain, less water, longer periods without water and electricity. Beginning of the end. I was warned about impending shortages about a month ago but didn't pay too much attention as it was in a bar. It seems he was right. I have never had poor wa...

Re: I think my electricity charge is too much

Also, as you live in a condo your rate per kw/h is around 100% higher than standard It is illegal to re-sell electricity initially supplied by EDC. Check out their FB page and website, contact them, and tell them about your bill. An EDC bill will state the Kwh rate. Yours doesn't. Suspicious. Also ...

Re: I think my electricity charge is too much

When apartment rent fees for April arrived, I was shocked to find that my electricity fees is $280. My friends pay only $60 for electricity. I think there must be something wrong. https://i.postimg.cc/jSHY2XbL/bill.png Also, as you live in a condo your rate per kw/h is around 100% higher than stand...

Re: I think my electricity charge is too much

How much electric do you use?

aircons running all day?

You are also paying 30c per kwh which is more that most I would guess

It's only a recommendation - no school is compelled to follow it
We got told yesterday we are closing, today was told we will stay open.

Re: Digital technology essential for economic growth in Cambodia

I doubt that was their decision. I've given it some thought and I have the feeling they're going to use the 'army of teachers' to fill up the venues when there's not enough people watching the game(s) and that's why the schools have to be closed. This edition of SEA games has to be a success, not m...

Are $3 cans reasonable? If so, Soho bar is running a special with $3 Guinness and $3 shots of Jameson.
If it's the imported widget ones, that's a very good price.

If it's the Malaysian/Singaporean stuff then $1 is too much

Re: Thai King's Daughter made army major general.

Why we need kings, queens and princesses in 21.century at all? :lol: Happens with or without royals. Instead, it would be the son/daughter of a long-standing prime minister If you mean the local fellow, he at least has military training and graduated the finest academy. Not really comparable to a p...
