Well done Kem. Not an easy place to escape from but if one were a savvy Khmer maybe not so difficult. Read a great book years ago about the Pom who escaped in Bangkok. He was in Singapore before the real hunt began because there was so much loss of face.
There was another book about the IRA man who assisted the Russian spy to escape from Wormwood Scrubs. They both went through Checkpoint Charlie hidden in Kombi vans.
