Tunisian Tourist Topples Off his Chair in Phnom Penh Noodle Shop

Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): On the morning of March 11, 2020, at 08:30 am, a 32-year-old Tunisian man, SABER MESSAOUD, passed out while he was eating noodles at Chea Hong noodle shop on street 155, Sangkat Toul Tumpong 1, Khan Chamkarmorn, Phnom Penh. He fell off his chair on to the floor, which alarmed the other customers who were eating their breakfast.
The police were called to the scene to check the situation, and they called an ambulance to take the victim to the hospital.

However, after a short blackout, the Tunisian tourist woke up and said that he was ok, but that " he drank too much last night." So then, the police let him go back to his hotel to recover.

Khmer news country.
Passing out in public places makes the news. Any comatose/fainting foreigner is fair game for local news. You are warned.

I thought it was common knowledge that in Tunisia it is considered a compliment to the Chef to pass out on the floor after tasting the food....
Must of been delicious noodles.

And also fair game in about 100% of countries worldwide. Why does everyone pcik on cmbodia news for doing what news does everywhere.
if someone passed out in my local macdonalds it would be all over the local newspaper next day

This guy had to think ahead and choose a place under the wall so that he wouldn't fall and just lean on it. But let's be honest, you can fall off this tiny chair even if you don't drink at all.

Drinking before eating breakfast is haram. I bet there was pork in those noodles too.
