Many Khmers go to Thailand seeking work I think. Is it the same for bar girls? I wonder if they can find work selling their services as beer bar hostesses or go go dancing? Would they earn more money in Bangkok or Pattaya than they would in Phnom Penh

Paying someone in another country to pretend to be your girlfriend is far dumber. In my own personal situation a wife or a GF is the last thing that I want so not something I want to consider. I should probably join a senior citizens club or live in a retirement village and spend my days playing bi...

Surely this is one of the dumbest ideas ever. The concept in itself is so ridiculous I'm almost at a loss for words. Bar girl = pay as you go. If you want to sponsor a "girl", find (a good) one to be your girlfriend or wife. Having a GF or a wife, really!! Surely this is one of the dumbes...

Thanks xandreu, that's a very thoughtful and kind reply to my question. Yes I like her and that's why I'm thinking of supporting her. On a matter like this it's really nice to hear the opinions of others, hear about the positives and heed the warnings. Ultimately, you are right, I will make my own d...

The notion of a long distance GFE sums up my idea quite well. Certainly I'd only ever send what I can afford and only ...

Separated, actually divorced now

Good question! I'm not sure if I will but thinking about it. I met a girl who I like but I am under no illusions that our time together was anything more than a "transaction" even though we did have fun so I guess I just want to help her out a bit and have ongoing communication while I'm a...

I'm just wondering the about the pros and cons of sponsoring a Cambodian bar girl and the cost. Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to rescue anyone from a bar and I'm sure she would continue to see other customers but just help with a little bit of money on a monthly basis and in return chat with her...

Nice to know you had a reasonably nice time in Poipet bossho! Sorry one one question, I'm not a gambler and not really interested in the casinos but I suppose they make a difference to the town's economy. So I assume they have reopened post Covid but does anyone know how they are going at the moment...
