I expect I'll have to pay the Golden Lions Circle bribe a few times down in Sihanoukville per usual. But just so long as I can avoid additional entanglements. thanks!

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.

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. It is like the village fool of the old days, just in higher numbers.
You won't have any problems as a tourist. Keep your clothes on and if you have some interest in a local or foreign woman, express it behind closed doors. Be careful with street food, not as clean as in Thailand. That might be your biggest problem. The long terms effects of that food can be studied with the above described cases.

Have a nice trip and enjoy your time

9 bombs 5 places,2 dead...
all about the southern separatists an very seldom reaches further north than Hat yai, we have been wondering for 20 years when one would go off on Soi Bangla. BUT as long as they are NOT targeting tourists ( as they did in Bali) the international media doe snot play it up.
