The Chinese have taken over our building.

The new neighbours above us (and around us) don't know how to lift furniture - the sound of heavy wooden chairs, tables and everything else scraping across the floor is filling the hallways of our once happy home.

Plus the shouting across hallways and down stairs- it's mindblowingly noisy.

We are moving out next weekend.

When I come back to SHV next month I want to sell my Condo. The only problem is how to advertise it without being accused racist. I will probably put; no arrogant, rude, trash throwing loud more than 2 people to a room pigs.
I will still be living next door so only fair who I choose to sell and live next to.

If your selling, I don't think it really maters to whom. Its as long has you get the monies, and the Chinese will possibly give you the asking price. That now seems they are the buyers in Shitvila.

It matters to me! Read my last line on my post! I have to live next door!

^Really it does not matter, soon you will be drinking and eating, shopping, along side them, since they are buying up the place. Just wait until they get more of an hold. By the way do you speak mandarin.

I would be looking at another town.

the way sihanoukville has been sounding in the 2-3 months ive not been there im not completely excited about returning, i mean it was bad before, but its seemed to have taken a nose dive, had a number of friends been kicked out their apartments due to Chinese buyouts, and im still not sure where i can go anymore for my full english now Aqua and Snookies are both RIP...

I live in an apartment in China and can ad to your 'fun facts' list:
- not only do the Chinese not know how to lift furniture, the time to move furniture is 3:00 AM
- all doors must be slammed.

Before I visited this summer, I was considering retirement in Sihanoukville. Not now.

Not just as neighbours. Last time in Siem Reap i was standing in the "wait to be seated" line in a restaurant and a few just pushed their way inside and sat down. When asked by staff to go wait in queue they shouted and carried on like pork chops and refused to leave the table.
I just walked out.
Rude arrogant fuckers.

Kampot is filling up fast and cheap rentals are nearly gone
