Brit Goes Batshit in Battambang - Threatens to Hire Hitman

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Hi Dan,
It's already a big step to admit that you were wrong big-time, so good for you. Maybe you can make it up to those people that you abused on fb, or maybe not. It's good that you've apologised and that you know you need to get your shit together. So do it.
All the best for a speedy recovery.

Yes, you're absolutely correct.
The best thing I can do is keep my head down and make amends.
What's worse is that it reflects badly on the barang community here.
I was out of order. 100%.
I will be seeking help in the very near future.
I just hope I can find a way to redeem myself. I'll try my best.

Cheers.

Hey guys ,

I am the one who got threatened by Dan. Just saw it allready is here , so I also will say some.

First of all a question to Dan.

Why, you apogolize only in public comments?
If you really would be sorry , and mean it serious, you would have sent me a Personal message.
You told my girlfriend just yesterday late evening , you never will excuse with me. For me it seem to be an attempt to save your face.

The facebook posts my girlfriend made got reported and deleted by facebook , thats why they arent available anymore .

Firstly, It's hardly face-saving to admit, in a public forum, that you have serious personal issues. It isn't face-saving to admit to acting so badly.

I'm not looking for an argument here.

I was heavily under the influence of alcohol for several days. I shouldn't have been in public like that.

I am sorry for the way I acted.
I wish I had never acted so badly.

If you can't or won't forgive me, I will understand.
I can't take back what I did. I acted incredibly badly. I would not like to be treated this way myself. No one would.

However, I do have the right to speak about what I did. With regards to the FB post, I didn't request it to be taken down. I wasn't even aware that it was taken down.

I actually replied to the FB post in question and that is how you know I didn't ask for it to be removed. Someone else must have requested that.

I did deserve to be named and shamed, and I have been.

Again, I am personally sorry to you for acting in a threatening manner. It's not what I am normally like. People can vouch for me in that respect. There are people here in Cambodia who have known me for over 3 years. I've never before acted this way. It is extremely out of character for me.

I am obviously not mentally or physically a well person. I need help. I know this and I will get the help I need.

Furthermore, there's a lot more to this story that hasn't been made public.
- The fact that this whole episode started with me being (quite seriously) physically assaulted in your establishment
- You sharing the CCTV footage of my assault with people around Battambang, including the person who seriously physically assaulted me.
- You throwing a punch at me outside your bar.
- The fact that myself and a friend of mine kept a record of how much we had been drinking and my and his bills were provably being "padded". (Common practice, I know, but extremely disappointing.)
- You holding my laptop to ransom.
(And this is just the tip of the iceberg.)

There's a lot of extra information about this whole thing that people are not at all aware of and whilst I certainly acted in a inexcusable way, I didn't act that way for absolutely no reason at all.
No one does that.

I didn't mention any of that up until now. I kept it to myself.

I could go into further detail, but I will refrain from doing that for the moment.

Whilst none of the above would condone me resorting to the bad behaviour I exhibited (hence me apologizing), there are a lot of things you are failing to admit or not allowing to be made public.

There's a lot more to this than meets the eye, as is normally always the case.

Cheers.
