Sewage crackdown in Sihanoukville.

I've got that beat, 20 years of Alaska snow. I also worked as a maintenance mechanic for a city water/sewer system and the US Public Health Service installing a water and sewage system. Here, it all comes down to money do it right and not put in someone's pocket. Like the garbage problem, the powers that be are just looking the other way and filling their pockets (and those of their friends) with $$$$$. Instead making 4 lane beach roads for the bus's full of Chinese tourists that are coming in the near future, a sewage system should be a top priority. The "water" running down Serendipity road/hill isn't water, its as we called it in the business "gray water" and full of Fecal Coliform Bacteria and disease. Just think what the tourists are taking back to their rooms on their shoes, or restaurants just feet away from diseased gray water and customers tracking that into the restaurants.

I rarely have gotten ill in tourist restaurants with Khmer cooks in SNVL. PP I have rarely had a meal in a tourist restaurant without my stomach playing up at least for a few days, at most for 9 months with continuous re-infectance of ameabiasis. God knows what's on people's shoes in PP.

That was kind of my point when posting that link to the beach clean-up. Takes more than a few hippies or Mormons to clean the places up when a modern sized tourist industry hits. Rich people don't like paying even more than poor people. If they can get away with it, they will. Who knows what the outcome of all the increased numbers of tourist will have on the world, but at the moment it's not looking too good for those that make their money from coastal fishing or the environment in general.

I know of a hotel in Greece that verifiably empties their toilets directly into the sea right in front of the building. The family that owns it recommends that exact spot to their guests who ask about swimming off the rocks, so they can laugh at the Germans swimming in their own poo. I wonder if Khmers are passive aggressive like the Greeks and laugh at Barang swimming in Shitsville, or if they are just too greedy and ignorant to build septic tanks.

^^ Perhaps you didn't spend enough time in 'Shitsville'. There are way more Khmers in the sea than barang.

Jamie: I'd be more than happy to show you my work history of over 56+ years. (That is actual time worked.) A PM or over a couple beers.

I've gotten sick from restaurants in the Sihanoukville area more than 6 or 7 times in almost 5 years. Once at the restaurant run by the big Chinese company that has taken over Ream Park I got Amoebic Dysentery.
