Re: Do CEO forum users even live in Cambodia!?

Sleepless after waking up from dreams on a rainy night in Siem Reap at 3:00 a.m., I glanced at CEO to add a reply to a thread only to notice several regulars online at such a strange "late" hour... It got me 🤔 thinking... do the majority of this board's users even reside right now in Camb...

Re: Hamas Terrorists Attack Festival in Israel and Target Civilians elsewhere in the Country

A possible explanation for the failure of the Israeli intelligence services, is that, despite being warned by Egypt, they allowed the Hamas invasion to go ahead, knowing that it would be their one chance to totally destroy the terrorist organisation in the name of vengeance. The more dead children ...

Re: What books are you reading?

What an erudite lot the CEO community turns out to be, going by some of these book choices - unless most of the claims are BS. Any road up, I have just finished Adrian Edmondson's autobiography, "Berserker". I have always a member of the "Young Ones" cult, and it was well written...

Re: Hug Cards

I suppose it's harmless enough but personally I wouldn't want some stranger touching me. What if they were nuts and clung onto you or bit you or something? https://media.tenor.com/RFtHAHFre_UAAAAM/crazy-girlfriend.gif I agree totally. There are plenty of strange people out there, many of them smell...

Re: Clinic for Hernia in Thailand?

Perhaps not relevant, but just wanted to chime in: a friend had a hernia operation at a private clinic in Siem Reap 2 weeks ago, he is very happy with treatment and results, says he will be back at the gym in a month. Operation plus 2 night stay was $800.

Lucky Mall's luck runs out

So Lucky Mall in Siem Reap has finally closed for good- supermarket, shops and stalls. It had struggled to compete with Angkor Market which was a better design and had more variety and cheaper prices, and the death knell was sounded a year or so ago when Lucky Supermarket stopped showing prices in U...

Re: Penalties for foreigners taking drugs

As a foreigner, you're not obliged to take any drug test., and you should not cooperate . Where did you hear that? As a foreigner you are obliged to follow the same criminal laws as anyone else. So can you quote me the law that gives them the power to drug test people randomly? Come back to me when...

Re: Death Sentences for Vietnamese Trafficking Drugs from Cambodia

The regularity of reports about drug dealers being executed in Vietnam tends to support the idea that death sentences are not a deterrent, like in Saudi where there are always plenty of people lining up for the chop. The best you can say is that at least it takes them off the street on a permanent b...
