Re: PM seeks ban on water gun games during KNY after foreign tourist injured
Kids wanted to go to Wat Phnom yesterday, and as much as I hate crowds and overly loud music played on shitty sound systems, my kids happiness is paramount. Within minutes of leaving Takhmau in a tuk-tuk, we were soaked through by people throwing water/shooting water guns. I.thought I was going to ...

Re: Israel and Palestinian Conflict
Maybe they should not give two hours' notice of the attack next time? It makes me think this was all a face-saving exercise by Iran after Israel blew up part of their Embassy in Syria and killed one of their military leaders. That's quite a 'fuck-you' in diplomatic terms. I don't think Tehran wants...

Re: Happy Songkran 2024
I have to admit, that I like it in Thailand, where the water war is lived out at daytime. Unfortunately there are 2 main differences here in Cambodia, which make it quite annoying: 1) The use of that powder 2) not stopping to throw water (and powder) after dusk True about the dusk curfew, not sure ...

Re: PM seeks ban on water gun games during KNY after foreign tourist injured
Anyone in a tuktuk was getting a soaking last night in the central area. St 13 was blocked with sodden revellers from St 110 southwards. No Grabs available. Walking around I did not get very wet if I avoided the big party areas. Many bars closed. Many young punks racing around and zigzagging on moto...

Re: Farewell to an Era: Phnom Penh International Airport Set to Shut Down to Make Way for New Airport Next Year
I flew into Krabi airport recently. It got developed into a big facility a few years ago with a super long runway that can accommodate the biggest wide bodied planes and the terminal can handle 8 million pax per annum.In 2018 the number of pax reached 4.19m but it dropped in 2019 even before Covid a...

Re: Parliament in favour of legalising gambling to boost economy
Oh dear. That will halve Cambodia's "tourist" entries at one swoop. Not sure it would have such a huge effect on Cambodia's economy, however. I suspect most of those Thai gamblers are spending in Thai-owned casinos in Poipet, and not staying even one night. Not much cash reaches the wider ...
