I thought the Angkor International was ok when I stayed there three or four years ago. I seem to recall the lift did my head in, though. Not sure why you'd take morphine if you were still speeding, could he not get valium or weed to come down? RIP.

Christopher Adams was a business journalist for the New Zealand Herald.
"Business journalist Christopher Adams, 34, who died on holiday in Cambodia this week, was a star reporter from the moment he walked into the New Zealand Herald offices as a student intern."

RIP Mr Adams. Condolences to his wife and children.
There must have been something wrong here. After such a luminous career, his ignominious departure from this mortal coil doesn't make sense. Having been in the news business, I have known of only a few journalists who descended into alcoholism and drugs. But why did he come alone to Cambodia? Maybe he was working on something that someone didn't like. I hope the NZ paper looks into this case.
