Re: When will we get snow in Cambodia?
I lived in China for six years. Tsingtao is probably the best beer made in China, followed by Habin, then Snow... which is very light and 'fruity'... but better than hundreds of other brands (averaging about 2.4% alcohol by volume) that taste like watered down pear juice someone waived a couple of hop flowers over for two seconds sometime during the fermentation process. Kingstar is the exception and has lots of flavour... if you like sulphur dioxide.cautious colin wrote: ↑Sun Sep 16, 2018 11:22 am How does it rate to Tsingtao? Bearing in I am not sure it could possibly be any worse
You could be next.

Re: When will we get snow in Cambodia?
The price of the stamp is 1.2 Riel. Meaning you could get about 1300 of them for a dollar at that exchange rate. Pretty cheap if correct.Jamie_Lambo wrote:isnt that expensive if the exchange rate was 1,650:$1? its 4,100:$1 nowcautious colin wrote: ↑Tue Sep 18, 2018 8:52 pmJust out of interest, what was the exchange rate back then?

Although, I notice that they use 1.20 and not 1,20 (as is the norm to use ‘.’ as the thousands separator instead of the ‘,’ which we use)Jamie_Lambo wrote:ahhh ok get yakhmerhamster wrote: ↑Wed Sep 19, 2018 7:31 amThe price of the stamp is 1.2 Riel.

I wonder if the price was actually 1200 Riel and not 1.2 riel. That price would maybe make more sense.

in the 1980s... 4 Riels = 1 USD, so 1.20 Riels is actual "1 Riel 2 Kak" (1 Kak was 0.10 of a Riel)
so 1.20 Riels at the time was $0.30
