Re: Do your Cambodian friends or missus see it as half full or half empty?
I think most of Cambodians are really shy and are afraid to make mistake and initiative. Not to mention, most of us are pessimistic.juansweetpotato wrote:Interesting OP. I was trying to teach pessimism and optimism to some of my students recently and I noticed a reticence in their eyes. Your post has got me wondering how you would define Khmer national traits ?

If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.

(Maybe in Khmer script so it looks like something spiritual and I will look like I belong here. )prahkeitouj wrote:Another day, another beer, another glass, another Anchor.Anchor Moy wrote:Keep that positive outlook: "Another day, another beer."Samouth wrote:PSD-Kiwi wrote:[img]https://fbcdn-photos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xap1/v/t1.0-0/p480x480/12118663_10153684356458537_4727289417154970600_n.jpg?oh=12258ef881b6b0551471f2a13c0da5f9&oe=56892653&__gda__=1451556840_30a2aa4b8afd541d817239f6ec44dc55[/img]
