Masks still mandated while flying?
Re: Masks still mandated while flying?
As mentioned in my previous post, mask wearing was only a thing for people that were either sick or going through traffic. I'll never stop trying to deprogram people from the covidian cult. Or trying to explain to people why they shouldn't litter the streets (as its part of the culture).Kenr wrote:

I have a daughter here and a Khmer family, I'm not just a guest, I'm a part of society here =)
You keep living in your crazy covidian bubble were people should fall in line like lemmings.

LOL, you’re the one living in a bubble, because what people do or don’t do is none of my business. Do you really believe they, or anyone else for that matter, gives a shit about your preaching? You think they care? LOL.Equinix wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 2:13 pmAs mentioned in my previous post, mask wearing was only a thing for people that were either sick or going through traffic.

People complained about having to wear the masks, and I don’t blame them, I hated it also. Now you have an issue with people wearing a mask. Too funny.
Re: Masks still mandated while flying?
When you were at the floating restaurant did you tell everyone driving a motorcycle without wearing a helmet it's smarter to wear one? Told all the drivers sipping a beer driving sober is the rule? Told the owner paying decent wages is the way to go? Interfered every time someone threw some rubbish in the river teaching them about the plastic soup?Equinix wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 1:45 pm
I can speak Khmer pretty well and when I speak with Khmer people I've met somewhere at random and some are wearing a mask, I'll do that whole spiel from my previous message and they normally take their mask of and we continue speaking about family, work, relationships and about politics, both local (silently) and globall =)
Your crusade seems rather random to me and your behavior a bit pedantic.
When someone asks you why you don't wear a mask, explain it to them, but questioning them about their motivations I find rather rude.
Re: Masks still mandated while flying?
Most people take their mask off after I ask them why they are still wearing it. Just as most people listen to me when I mention they should stop littering and they pick up whatever they just threw on the road.Kenr wrote:LOL, you’re the one living in a bubble, because what people do or don’t do is none of my business.

Small changes maybe, but hopefully it ripples out. =)
When I'm in traffic and see people driving without helmet or playing with their phone. When possible, I say something about it. (Buy a helmet for your kids, loads of crazy drivers on the road that might hit you) stop playing with your phone on the road, stop 10 seconds and get yr message out without the risk of colliding with other people in traffic.Kammekor wrote:When you were at the floating restaurant did you tell everyone driving a motorcycle without wearing a helmet it's smarter to wear one?

Re: Masks still mandated while flying?
Spent a couple of days in airports. When everybody around me has a mask on I have no desire to be that one "informed" westerner looking like a total douche face while looking for confrontations to let people know they are idiots.Freightdog wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 1:31 pmIf only it were that simple.ItWasntMe wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 1:08 pm
Don't be one of those people that become outsiders cause they can't conform to the simplest of local traditions or societal norms.
Before you know it you'll be spending time on some obscure forum creating thread after thread, post after post, trying to prove that you're smarter than everyone.
In the meantime "everyone" is just enjoying life together. Sometimes with a mask on, other times not, but always with better topics of conversation than you.
I arrived in Cambodia in 2018. Barring a few random Japanese and Chinese tourists (mostly middle age women), masks were not a traditional piece of clothing for anyone.
News reports that have made it onto this forum every year since I registered, which suggest that covering an electrocution victim in sand is the best course of action (as far as many locals are concerned).
Meanwhile, I visited the bank recently, where the customer service bod was sat behind a Perspex screen, wearing a mask. Talking in muffled tones in the usual semi coherent style.
Sometimes, calmly, a bit of practical common sense needs to be injected into the process. This is where a lot of the push back has occurred since the entire debacle started.
It is that simple.
Not targeted towards you, I believe you are more level headed but this is the conversation I'm in it seems

That's correct. I don't correct total strangers.Jerry Atrick wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 2:34 pmJust out of curiosity; do you let people throwing rubbish in the river in front of you go unremarked?
Re: Masks still mandated while flying?
What??? You don't scream at every Cambodian driving around with a kid wearing no helmet? Or every time you see someone get in a vehicle while intoxicated?Kammekor wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 5:40 pmThat's correct.

Well... As long as you care about facemasks.

The regular scenario at the traffic lights.
Me: Hi, how are you?
Do you love your child?
**: yes
Me: maybe you should buy him/her a helmet, traffic in Cambodia is crazy and you might get into an accident were your child dies because you didn't buy him/her/them a helmet.
If I've prevented only one child dying or getting seriously injured because i'm being "an ass", I happily take that badge =)
