It is high time for PP numbers to get going a bit.
Why is it that every year SHV gets a serious head start ?

"Why come to Cambodia to kill yourself ?

Interesting question. A few years back there was an American who promoted euthanasia out of Kampot. I couldn't get the Daily article since I don't subscribe but I found this with plenty of links.

He's beginning to look like a businessman ahead of his time.

The best my phone can raise is short blurbs, but not the whole article. I signed up but my password and email are both rejected. Well duck 'em I can take a joke. I live in the Kingdom of Wonder after all.

^^ Don't ask me how to do this on your phone, but you just need to clear the CambodiaDaily cookies, or just clear your browsing history might also work.

When I just get the first paragraph of an article and the message saying to Subscribe to read more, I just clear the CD cookies. After that, I get the whole article.
