Specific Area of PP to buy bricks?
I’m looking for red building bricks. I know they sell them all over the city but is there a specific area where they sell a lot of them? In SR most of the building supply shops were out on Ring Road - is there an area like this in PP? I’m looking for a brick with Khmer Letters stamped on the side by the manufacturer, it’s a gift for someone back home. I’ve stopped at several brick places in my area but haven’t found them.

This link may or may not help, but perhaps better to ask a local than the expat community.

All the bricks I bought here were generally mishapen things that are maybe squeezed through a die and chopped, if they have a stamp on them it isn't going to look great.

If you had inspected them closely you probably would have seen some kids fingerprints firmly embedded in each one.John Bingham wrote: ↑Fri Jun 05, 2020 7:09 pm All the bricks I bought here were generally mishapen things that are squeezed through a die and chopped, if they have a stamp on them it wasn't apparent.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Yeah most of them look like shit. But I did see a few in SR that appeared to be better quality than most and had some really cool Khmer text stamped into the side of each one. Didn’t buy them because I assumed I could get them in PP.John Bingham wrote: ↑Fri Jun 05, 2020 7:09 pm All the bricks I bought here were generally mishapen things that are maybe squeezed through a die and chopped, if they have a stamp on them it isn't going to look great.
