Gee, your an impatient prick, cant you just wait a few days till the end of the year.

and even then, you will come up with less than one a day. With the bigger part of them overdosing or jumping. So it is not really a big deal.

"Jumping" - you must be in Thailand - that is not a Cambodian thing at all - for the moment anyway. No jumping and no falling from balconies.

A lot of people are just buying very bad drugs. Particularly in PP. But there is no suggestion that the OP deceased died of drugs. People also just die sometimes...

^truish, although the 'falling from balconies' count seems to be creeping up. Was pretty hard a few years ago when most places were three stories high or less

I travel a lot, so I am not in Thailand nor in Cambodia at the moment. But have lived and worked in both. There were at least two jumps in Cambodia while I was there, and a lot of bad drugs and od s. Also drunk driving, no helmet etc etc contribute to the toll. I am just saying that most barang death are self inflicted, some are murder. Nothing to get too excited about, as some can't wait for a body count. I have lived in places with the highest murder rate per capita, those numbers were an impressive 40 fold. No tourism, no expats and no war. There I did check my 6 o'clock often. No need here in Asia apart from the Phil's. I did not suggest that the OP deceased died of drugs.
