I remember a report of an 86 year old Okhna who was involved in a traffic accident, while driving in Sihanoukville. It stated that his 27 year old wife was a passenger in the vehicle. An official marriage to a much younger woman is relatively uncommon, but it is quite normal to have a much younger m...

Like barang chgout, I noticed that my internet speed dropped significantly yesterday afternoon and evening. Coincidental? No problems now and I can access the sites that were blocked yesterday. I wonder whether it will remain that way for the rest of the day.

Interesting video and very interesting locations for the alleged offences. Calamba, where the perp was living, is about 40 km. south of Manila and is relatively middle class, by Philippine standards. There is an upmarket karaoke bar scene, strictly for wealthy Manila males, and the accommodation is ...

Not fake news. The 2 sites I mentioned are still down, while any others I try are fine. I think it depends on the ISP and the type of service-I'm on a PC.

Now it makes sense. Since I woke at 6 am, I haven't been able to access the ABC news website. Hardly co-incidental, as the ABC have been heavily promoting this coming Monday's Four Corners expose of corruption and dictatorship in Cambodia, which, as usual, relies heavily on accepting verbatim the ri...

The animals wore heavily padded gloves and...

Jim Morrison. No other rock singer has had a star or a species of lizard named after them. Eric Burdon and Paul Rogers also deserve a mention.

I remember reading about the incident in a couple of books, when I first moved here 15 years ago. It was claimed that the leader of the group was a notorious smuggler and that the yacht was carrying a large shipment of hash. If true, it certainly doesn't justify what was done to them, but I thought ...

I moved into a new rented villa in Borey Peng Huoth Platinum section on Thursday. No complaints at all about the quality, price or ambience. The owner had a team of workers attending to all the finer details before I moved in and they are still putting in the final touches. However, I received a vis...

Very rarely, as they live their lives surrounded by them. It's usually only used while educating newbies about the sex industry there. New arrivals are referred to as "Cherry Boys" (virgins) by the locals and are heavily targeted. The warning usually goes, "She may be a great LBFM, bu...
