Sihanoukville Square closing in One month

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.

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.

To your good self.
"The revolution did more than legally create the United States; it transformed American society... Far from remaining monarchical, hierarchy-ridden subjects on the margin of civilization, Americans had become, almost overnight, the most liberal, the most democratic, the most commercial minded, and the most modern people in the world." - Gordon S.

Screws the sale of the Glory Hole.
Sure you didn't know before this?
What???

This just screwed a sale of an inconsequential asset of mine. If I had know and I had been the type of person you imply I would not have agreed to lease transfer next week , I would have pushed for the deal to settle straight away. As it stands we will be giving back a sizable amount or all, of the deposit as we cannot settle.

Please do not assume everyone in business here has the same scruples as you obviously do.
Come on LJ that genius doesn't have any business skills never mind scruples.

Sorry to hear of the situation down there. Crazy how quick things change.

I meant surely you were aware that bars etc. would be forced to move soon? Typo there some text left out, no aspersions on character, calm down. Who would seriously suggest you'd shoot yourself in the foot? Surely you realised it's odd and it has to be a typo?

It should read surely you knew this would happen...iow, everybody has been talking about the possibility of people suddenly losing stuff when leases etc. are cancelled...you can't honestly say that it was never a possibility...a whole bunch of people have been kicked out early and got nada

But no, you instantly resort to fanciful ad-hominem. Scruples? What? Please, be more specific...no need to your panties in a bunch

I'm new to all this. Can someone explain it to me. Is the Square like the GSM of Sihanoukville, a complex of bars with a master lease? And is Glory Hole in that square and is your landlord terminating your lease?

What's the department store referenced in the lease Jamie posted?

What was the closing date set for your sale? Do you think you are legally or contractually obligated to return the deposit or are you just being a good sport? Is this closing of the square not a risk the buyer took when entering into the deal? If he wishes to cancel, why not keep the deposit?

Let's say that, for example, instead of the closing of the square being announced yesterday, an announcement was made that "all leases at the square will be extended for twenty years at a rental cost of $1 per month"? Would you have been permitted to change your mind and terminate the sale agreement without consequence?

I obviously don't know all the details about the agreement here, but I'm not sure keeping the deposit is unwarranted or unethical. It's business.
