Or building a small fire to fend off the cold.

Anyway, good on him!
Re: Mystery Foreigner Sweeps the Street in Phnom Penh
I agree good of him, what is more to the point he had actually laboured for the benefit of others of the area, if people did the same instead of complaining how untidy the streets are in the area, something would be done about it, like this young man has shown, and you never know it may catch on.
Always "hope" but never "expect".

Probably on meth. Obsessive cleansing is a common side effect of tweaking. Must have done his apartment and thought imma take this up a level.

I admit it... it was me.
I started feeling so guilty about getting $1200 from the US government like a dirty commie..
I decided to go to PP today and do some cleaning up.
Personally, I hope it wass just some young lad who wanted to show the Khmer people he was a good Samaritan..
But, I do recall a gal I knew in LA who told me she liked to do meth and clean house.

Re: Mystery Foreigner Sweeps the Street in Phnom Penh
It’s funny how the standard of public sanitation here is so despicably low that someone cleaning up is either a tweaker, a mentally unstable person, or homeless trash. I’ve often reached the point of frustration about the trash that I went outside and cleaned up the street in my village. I have a nice place to live, I don’t do drugs, and I’m not mentally unstable. The crazy stares I got from the locals would have indicated otherwise however. They became frantic after only a few hours of the absence of trash and promptly rectified the situation. Oh well, I tried.
The contrast here is fascinating.. drive a $100,000 spotlessly clean car but still throw trash on the street. There is a pride disconnect somewhere.

Bully for him. But couldnt he be arrested and deported for working without a work permit for that type of work?
