12 o'clock Curfew in Phnom Penh for Cambodian Water Festival

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

How can you possibly enforce a curfew if millions of country bumpkins sleep on the streets ????? :no:

I have decided , in the interests of safety and to protect some of those innocent country bumpkin girls that may have to sleep on the street, I will offer free accommodation in my apartment during the water festival, to 2 or 3 girls. I hope that will help.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Good idea - in the interests of safety, I mean. The Cambodian forces should really appreciate the efforts and sacrifices of some fellow men here. :D
Und der Haifisch der hat Tränen
Und die laufen vom Gesicht
Doch der Haifisch lebt im Wasser
So die Tränen sieht man nicht

In der Tiefe ist es einsam
Und so manche Träne fliesst
Und so kommt es dass das Wasser
In den Meeren salzig ist

I would stay far far away from Aeon mall. There will be a million people that will all want to have a look................at the same time. Anything spooks them, and you could have another disaster as they all try and flee the exit at the same time.

That is very generous of you. Everybody knows the power of kharma is returned to the giver 100 fold. As such you can get all the ladies you want. They are ripe for the plucking...
