Re: Salary enquiry
I worked at AUPP for one academic year (10 months) a few years back. My salary was $4,000 (US) per month, plus a very nice furnished apartment, plus very good health insurance. Flights for both me and my wife also were included.

Re: WTF is going on with ABA ATMs?
At least we have ATMs now. When I first came here there were none..... Had to go to the bank by day, or use the floating casino money exchange by night...

Re: What happened to Beer Lao?
"Most" means more than 50%, and as I said, most beers worldwide are made of barley, not rice. And for the record, I do enjoy a rice- based beer from time to (Beer Lao, Asahi, Kirin, etc).

Re: What happened to Beer Lao?
Beer Lao is made from rice, unlike most other beers (which are made from barley grain). That gives it its unique taste..

Re: Longtime expat, Bayon Pearnik owner suffers massive stroke
One of the first persons I met when I washed ashore here back in the 1990s (at the then usual Phnom Penh expat haunts). Glad to know he is still alive and kicking.

recommend a mover??
Moving a few blocks from current place (Toul Kork area); largest items are a washing machine and a medium-sized refrigerator, and everything else can be packed in boxes (we will help carry everything from apartment to truck and vice-versa). Anyone know of a cheap moving guy with a small truck?

Re: ATMs per 100,000 adults on the rise.
Only traveller's checks (and cash) were used here when I first arrived in the 1990s. Had to cash the traveller's checks at the floating casino (the only casino back then) if the banks were closed....

Re: ATMs per 100,000 adults on the rise.
Thank goodness we got them here finally. I remember when the first ones were installed several years ago - robbers would be lurking around them waiting for someone to withdraw money (true story)...

recent MRI?
Anyone had an MRI (back) done in Phnom Penh during the last year or two? If so, cost? experience? location?
