Re: Otres vs. Oknha

So the land was awarded to nine families, but then a different court decided to give the land to someone else.

Sounds just like the safety of a hard title.

So does that mean that courts can overrule hard titles and in effect hand the land over to someone else?

Re: Privileged snowflakes begging for travel funds in SEA

When I was visiting Singapore, I saw the police rounding up some scruffy looking dark skinned Asian men. My host explained their crime was not fitting in and looking Singaporean. This is of course the land that mandates cars not be more than 10 years old and a host of other laws that are strictly en...

Re: Khmer visa based on marriage

Here’s a recap Bobby. I return to the KOW more than once a year and now I’m taking the missus abroad. Each entry to the KOW eats up a passport page. Going with the missus abroad thus eats up 3 passport pages. 1 foreign country stamp and 2 KOW Visas. I’m running low on passport pages. I can get an EB...

Re: Where do they serve pizza by the slice in PP?

Nothing tastes quite like a pizza slice in New York. Been years since my last fix. Hope to bring missus along for the next fix.

There are places with good pizza in the KOW, but not the same exact taste as a New York slice.

Re: 31yo Chinese Online Casino Worker Dies of Heart Attack in Bed

Two different classes of heart attacks.

Laborers die of overwork heart attacks. Literal worked to to death (happens in their home countries, too).

Expats and tourists die of lifestyle choices heart attacks or just neglected health.

Re: Main Passport Office Phnom Penh - Senior/Reliable "Agent" Required

I think the OP needs someone who makes or has the ability to break the rules at will. Kim is great, but doesn’t have the powers of someone like, the head of immigration or passport office.

Good luck OML. Hope you aren’t in too much trouble.

Re: Feb 27 is National Clean City Day

Educating Khmer on tidiness?

Sorry, fail. Had the lady next to me on the airplane to Phnom Penh generating rubbish and furtively kicking all of it to a corner below the seat posts.

This is after ignoring repeated passes by the airplane cabin crew to collect trash.

Re: SIM card for cell phone. Suggestions?

Be careful, SMART eats data out in the provinces. $1 gone for 30 minutes of Facebook. $5 card lasted about 2 days. Needed another $5 card to last out the wedding ceremony.
