72-Year-Old Gary Becks Marries Teenager, Can't be Bothered to Polish His Shoes

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Complete nonsense:The lady is not a teenager. She might well be a widow or divorced and have children.
The shoes: Ever been to a Khmer wedding in the countryside like the one in the picture?

I am sure, if an old man is sweat and care good attention to a khmer girl, she can like him for himself in addition to the money she can get. They still have good heart, more than the neighbour... In fact, this is one of the few interest of Cambodia. I am not sure it will be available with the next generation... many of the khmer teenagers look so stupids and self-centred :-(
It’s hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it’s damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.

When you think about it, this 19 yo girl is probably a very wise girl who understand about life and that she is better off with a old guy rather than a young stud who will want boom boom two times a night and once in the day , then go off to a KTV , get drunk and look for another sexy lady.
A old guy has more experience in life, is more settled down in life , probably more money and ain't going to treat her like a young bongtom stud would.
Much better for her to be a old mans sweetheart than a young mans slave, and I would would suggest this to most girls wanting to settle down.
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.

Until he gets too sick and she has to look after him 24/7 or he goes and dies, then she has to go through the process again. Except this time she is 23/27 etc and now 'too old' for her target market.
