Yong's vanishing act

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.

It was more a case of not knowing what had happened to it.

A bit like our local health club. They moved the timetable around so that the mums and toddlers could be on at a more convenient time for them but never informed anyone else.

Horrible sight of 8 retired grumpy old men sitting in a Jacuzi by the pool glaring at the toddlers and drooling at the mums.

When did the Chinese start queueing?

Stampeding is a better description.

And someone should tell the French that you join a queue at the back, not the front.

Then there are the Germans. You can be standing at a bus stop without anyone else in sight and as soon as a bus or tram comes along, they materialise out of all of the nearby shop doorways and shove you aside. ( Don't get me about towels on sun loungers)
