ahhh Cambodians

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.

wifes 12 year old nephew was on his way to Soccer practice on the main kep road on mom's 2020 honda dream.
3 teenagers pulled up in front of him an stopped him, one got off his bike to ask directions while the other went behind him, struck him on the back of his head knocking him down while the other got on the bike and away they went>
20 seconds...

Police told them, not much they can do....

Happens more often in Thailand, very dangerous country where most shouldn't even leave the hotel without an armed guard!

Is the boy ok?

These types of smash and grab crimes can end up causing serious injury for what is an intended economic crime only.

Jealous or what??

Not easy indeed. No cameras around I suppose and 3 teens on a bike is a vague description over here.

So, not much they can do then :unknown:

If it is so easy to just switch the plates and carry on, it is no surprise that it is such a common crime. This is not a chick or the egg dilemma.

How do you insure against that? Do insurance companies pay out for such thefts?

That sucks.

I know we don't need a license to ride the smaller 125cc motorbikes any longer, but is there a legal age you're allowed to ride them on the streets, or does anything go now?
