We don't need toilet paper, BUT...

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.

We don't need toilet paper, BUT...

Post by Anchor Moy »

Cambodian expats all had a good laugh when the Covid pandemic began and customers in western countries were getting into fights over toilet paper in supermarkets.

Laugh no more. :beer3: Now is the time of reckoning in Cambodia - Covid + KNY - there may be shortages, but of what ? Are you stocking up on anything in particular to get through lockdown, a possible future neighborhood lockdown, market closures ?

I admit, I always buy some extra beer before the holidays, because you never know. Anyone else want to own up to stocking up on "necessities" ? And are you buying more than you usually would at this time of the year ? (Due to fears of lockdown and shops closed.)

I'd be interested to hear how the posters who are in lockdown in their building are faring. There were reports that one person per household is allowed to go out and shop twice a week. Then, I read elsewhere that two people are allowed out for shopping once a week. I imagine that it's the local authorities who fix the rules so they are probably different depending on where you live. :popcorn:

Stocking up on blow up dolls? Do you wear them out within 2 weeks? That is some pretty serious usage if you do!!!

I always asks my friends back home when they express astonishment when I tell them that I rather wash my ass now: " If would you have shit on your face would you wipe it with paper or wash it?? They smile usually disappear.
