Re: 2 Japanese Expats Crash into Traffic Policeman on Motorbike in Phnom Penh

Whenever they don't post the reason for the accident, I always, perhaps wrongly, assume it's the Khmer's fault. Unless you consider speeding the wrong way down a road and not using lights at night etc faultless.

Re: supermarkets and markets

I always find these pricing threads incredibly frustrating. Pizzalover has a lot more tolerance for bullshit than I have. PCZZ, as always, gives good advice. As do a few others. But there are some that just spout bullshit on purpose. Go figure why. One poster on this thread, I won't name and shame, ...

Re: Is Cambodia safe for Americans or should I just visit Thailand instead?

That's why I cropped it, to emphasize the living. The dead guy is not important except as a symbol of the crowds brutality. His face is macabre and unnecessary. All you need to know is they hung a young guy up and proceeded to beat him to death. Then look at the faces. He wasn't beaten to death, he...

Re: Is Cambodia safe for Americans or should I just visit Thailand instead?

There have been many massacres in Thailand since, things have calmed down in Cambodia and there haven't been any massacres in more than two decades. Thailand is very unstable. https://i.imgur.com/SIpHi9Q.jpg The most powerful thing about these photos is always the faces JB. They speak eons. Not sur...

Re: Is Cambodia a 'Japanese beef-laundering' hub?

So what, the Americans did the same with Cuban cigars by using the UK.

What is Chinese contaminated honey?

Honey has been diluted with sugar and water for many thousands of years, until weights and measures and seals came in. Even then they still need to check it.

Re: Is Cambodia safe for Americans or should I just visit Thailand instead?

Dear OP, dont take some of the posters too serious. They are vagrant individuals who came over from another online place related to Cambodia. As they have past their best before date they cant stop old habits while not being banned due to their state of mind and the benevolence of the administrator...
