Operation to inspect the residences of foreigners
Re: Operation to inspect the residences of foreigners
Yea they're not an issue as long as you are here legally, I don't know why so many foreigners get all worked up and paranoid over them. I've had several inspections over the years, officers always polite and never asked for tea money.Art wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2024 6:37 pmI've been through one of these inspections...

Happens every 2-3 years.

@Arget There is an update, works perfectly fine on my phone, you might have to uninstall and download again.
However, unless you are the legal property owner or business owner if GH/Hotel/etc, then you shouldn't need the app, as it is the property owners/landlords responsibility.

Re: Operation to inspect the residences of foreigners
Of course inspection is in name only.
...Local chiefs have the prerogative to take as much as they like from whoever they like, as is traditional to use property here... For example, the Chinese mob is penetrating deeply into the city of Phnom Penh. No longer are they limited to the outskirts of the city around the airport or way out in Poipet:
A colleague reported three weeks ago that he was given 10 days to vacate an apartment premises in Toul Tumpun, in the very heart of the chic expat district, in which you find non-girly bars and restos, and also in which a sizeable population of professional expats reside, including hundreds of people working at embassies, NGOs, and schools.
The man's entire apartment block was abruptly leased by persons unknown. He noticed the week following his eviction that a large black steel gate had been erected in front of the building entrance. The business inside is unknown but could be anything. Chinese guys coming and going apparently.
So, there you go. That the feckless government "expresses surprise" comes as no surprise because the ruling elite for years has given free reign to local authorities and judges to do as they please in their territory as a simple way to maintain their loyalty. Look the other way as the police chief and landlord take big money. Anyway, it's nothing new.
Sihanoukville is full of Chinese, Indonesians, Bangladeshis, etc, etc, and plenty of locals nibbling away in several multi-storey edifices all over town... It is getting busier.
One thing is sure though. The cool sea air at the beach sure as hell beats the crap out of dusty hot little Shitpot and Poopoo Penh, lol...
Riding the tuk-tuk to the bus station in PP the other night, the air was full of smoke, really thick and awful, from Boeung Tumpun all the way up to Daun Penh.

Day to day life must be intolerable for you. Why you even bother to get out of bed each day is a mystery.
I sincerely hope you don't get any sand in your drink.

Re: Operation to inspect the residences of foreigners
What's that supposed to mean? Kampot is a dusty ugly little dump full of nobs and losers and Phnom Penh is fucking mismanaged dump hole.John Bingham wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2024 3:30 pmFucking hell, are you five years old?Shitpot and Poopoo Penh, lol...
It is ugly and polluted by the smoke of dozens of small brick factories burning polyester, nylon and rubber day and night.
The government is run with the same kind of bloody awful corruption and incompetence as was Spain during the regime of Generalissimo Franco, LOL...
I CAN SEE THAT...

Re: Operation to inspect the residences of foreigners
Actually, your constant negativity about Cambodia is bordering on trolling, and puts you squarely in the suspect category- others have already been culled out.
So UT’s question is not unwarranted. Take it onboard, or risk taking a break.
