Benjamin Holst - coming to Cambodia soon?
His amputated elephant leg would make a rather splendid umbrella stand, or "Holster", if you will.

I hope he makes it here and they put him in Prey Speu.

Benjamin has been having quite a few adventures recently. During a spell in Malaysia where he became a bit of a cause celebre featured heavily in the local media (particularly the Star, so expect to read about him in Khmer Times soon), he had his phone stolen. Whoever stole it must have realised who he was, because they then assumed his identity on Facebook and encourage everyone to share this video, developed by the Star.
He eventually got his phone back and spent a few days in Vietnam but is back in KL today and heading off to Thailand. It will be interesting to see if he gets across the Hat Yai border, as he was previously thrown out of the country, although he's changed his passport since then.
A guy on his FB page is also suggesting that Holst can't return to Germany at the moment as he has a couple of arrest warrants outstanding, one for credit card fraud and one for damaging property.
Edit to add: Seems he became a bit of a sensation in Vietnam too. http://japanbusiness.vietnhat.tv/e32547.html

No white man hides himself in the wilderness without a reason
He gave up on his plans to try to get into Thailand via Hat Yai, and opted to do a land-crossing into Singapore. They wouldn't let him enter. He doesn't seem to have been arrested in Singapore before, so he's clearly on some kind of immigration watchlist in SEA. He posted that he is now banned from 7 countries. Not sure which they all are, but they clearly include Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia and Philippines. I suspect Malaysia has now been added to that list.
His Asia trips will be severely restricted in future.

To be banned from entering 7 SEA Countries is a kind of a big deal.
Something he can brag about with his mates at the Pub on a Friday night.
His mate says - I'm currently banned from entering 3 countries, How many you banned from ?
His other mate says I'm banned from entering 5 countries.
Ben steps up to the plate an announces " I'm banned from entering 7 countries "
And they all cheer and clink glasses and say " You are the man ! "
As far as he's concerned his failures in life make him a winner.
Must bite tongue and not discuss how we are being conditioned to reward failures in life, cuddle them and tuck them into a warm bed each night.

I refuse to go out with nothing more than a whimper followed by a small farting sound and a shit stain on my bed sheets..
Just thought I'd share that with you.

Here's a report about him being denied entry to Singapore at Changi Airport also.

Londo, you should copyright the "Holster". Get a plastercast of his leg, make rubber molds and sell them to beggar mafias all over SEA. Possibly, hire Teletubby as pitchman.Londo wrote:His amputated elephant leg would make a rather splendid umbrella stand, or "Holster", if you will.

I wonder whether he could get a book deal with Lonely Planet?
