That's not exactly helpful. People who have been here a long time will remember when many residents burned their garbage on the side of the street, then times when it was relatively tidy, and other times when CINTRI stopped collections and it got very messy again. Refuse collection is something residents are of course concerned by, not many like wallowing in dirt.
Dirty, polluted cities, with terrible infrastructure, and too much traffic, keep the uppity suburbanite travelers away. I don’t even mind the rolling power outages, although, to be fair, I don’t have to get any work done while I’m in Cambodia.
up to you...

We're not fancy, we have plenty of garbage, unless it's raining the dust and burning plastic make for fantastic sunsets. So much to love
You get used to the smell of black water, really, I hardly notice it anymore

Hi PCZZ,
Can you tell me in which part of The UK do you pay hundreds of pounds a month just to get your rubbish taken away ?.
I will wait.

Yeas, theenglish nurses wanted to let him die so they got 2 foreign nurses to oloom after them. i think prit patel promised not to deport themas soon as the emergency was over, but she had her fingers crossed behind her backfazur wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2020 11:23 amno decent municipal worker would touch borispczz wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2020 8:38 amPlus they pay a few dollars a month not to have their rubbish collected. in the UK we pay hundreds of pounds a month for the same privelegethold wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2020 7:41 am I don't understand expats who are complaining about the mess here. It is how it is. Cambodia still looks much better than Third World countries in Europe such as Poland, Moldova or Ukraine. If anyone wants a tidy neighborhood, let them move to Switzerland. BTW comments about "weird-looking" Africans are distasteful and racist.

Detroit looks like 1945 Dresden. You can buy one of those fixer upper houses for five dollars.

Sure, one can buy the house for five dollars.Marty wrote:Detroit looks like 1945 Dresden. You can buy one of those fixer upper houses for five dollars.
But then have to sue the city to get rid of the squatters living in it (thanks community organizers). After that, the house needs to be rewired, repiped, and reroofed, ‘cause the looters have stripped it of everything, including the electrical box.
Then after all that, the city assesses a sky high value on the “fixer upper”. Because that’s the only home in the neighborhood paying taxes. So it needs to cover the entire cost of city police, city roads, city water, city electric, etc.
And the final question. Who wants to live in the only fixer upper home in a crack infested neighborhood?
