Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about.

Traffic Spy tracked him down apparently, he told them he doesn't want anyone to send him money. I'm sure the show of love he is getting on fb is little overwhelming lol.

Following intense interest on social media, a local journalist has done an "in-depth interview" with the family of the injured girl. Many people have commented that the foreign man acted correctly, and now the mother has apologized, saying that she may have over-reacted because she was distressed by her daughter's injuries.

Without a precise diagnosis, in the photos, the little girl does appear to be only slightly injured.

The original article says that the foreigner paid the family $80, while later news reports that the sum paid by the foreigner was $250, and many Cambodians have said that the mother asked too much money to compensate for the accident.
Note: All of this is social media information, so rumors are rife.

A local apologizing to a barang? Losing face to a foreigner? I wonder how much social pressure must have been brought to bear for her to admit that?

Here it appears he's been stopped by a random woman while going about his day. He's a little more gracious than many.

I carry a front travel sling over the shoulder. Highly secure feeling. Number of attempted bag snatches = 0, so far. Secure enough that missus keeps all the stuff in it.
