Men in the west complain they are oppressed by the feminist regime and use SEA as an escape.
They are only escaping into a place far worse .... boredom lurks here in KoW, so does death and insanity.
Back home we are one with society kts possible to do anything we wish,Here we are walking ATMS and still fail to get what we really want most of the time.
Only thing now we are paying more and getting less than ever.
Discount for guesthouse having no power?

Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
Its true.
The feminist west is actually better than KoW.
I was not mongering last trip i was in kampon chnnang in the real KOW not phnom phen with the frowning local khmers who dont like barang.
In fact i counted on one hand how many barang i came across the whole trip.
The flight home was horrendous fucking DTs mixed with turbulance and incompetent airhostesses charging 6USD for a warm tiger beer..

Last time I was there, it was full of overweights, and no need to be a gentleman anymore,
just get out of the way, they've all become landowners and entrepreneurs, and you either
play the suck it up game, (being mature) or become one of the many homeless,
mostly males who decided to leave the sinking ship of debth spirals, childlessness, hipster beards
and tat mayhem, followed by $7 drafts and $1500 pr. month claustrophobic bedrooms in a shared
apartment just a few hours commute outside of town, cause the city center was sold off to speculators,
But hey, it's all good if you got a six figure income, I guess..

Hmm why?seen on facebook wrote:I was in Perth, my home town recently. It’s shocking how expensive it was. I remember buying a few bottles of reasonable quality wine and a six pack of beer at a supermarket and the bill coming to over $100AU. One of those bottles of wine was Torbreck Woodcutter’s Shiraz (2017), from the Barossa Valley in Australia. It was $30AU.
I saw the same bottle of wine in Trader Joe’s in LA for $5 yesterday.
It’s baffling. How can a product be six times more expensive in it’s country of origin, than it is when shipped 6,500 miles, with import duty added?
And thank heavens for Trader Joes btw.facebook wrote:Australia is insanely expensive these days... excessive prices & low salaries... govt has mismanaged the economy the last 20 years & hoovered up all the realestate into Superfunds (ie. mostly bank owned via jumbo loans).
That coupled with a high minimum wage for unskilled labor and v low ‘skilled’ wages above this means that retail, housing, consumer goods etc have reached excessive levels most of the population simply cant sustain.
Weve had 2 succesive cycles of economic downturn ...so one more and we’ll be officially in a recession whilst rest of the 1st world has boom economies.
All on the tails of arrogance (& false real estate) inflation that we were the only country not to feel the effects of the US 2009 crisis.
Try getting a parking fine in suburban sydney.... it’s almost double a parking ticket on Broadway in NYC.
Its ‘boastful’ National Health system has also crumbled.
Private coverage now costs more than preObama US rates & covers far far less (ie neither public nor private cover the Dr’s $2500 fee for a basic tonsilectomy for a 10yo... also mandating a 12 month wait period). Its a rort.
Yet for some reason when i tell locals cost of living is far cheaper in NYC (just returned from 30years there) they are gobsmacked... the goal posts have shifted so gradually they think the povo pack is normal

fake wine bottling is a long known oz product well that which is sold overseas at least
in the process of fucking off to the land of honey and free beer
It cheaper here, Red wine is pretty much free or around 5 dollars for what is around 1000 THB in BKK.
If you work your 38 hours a week you can afford A rub and tug every day, steak meals every day a room in an aparenent in the city and a carton of beer a week and still save 1000 $ a month, That what most Teflers CLEAR P/M FFS.
No point roughing it in the tropics and putting up with sub standard food ,bad traffic, Horrible heat, power cuts,no water and frowning locals.
Maybe in the 1990s-2015s. Yeh sure.
Now....
No fucking way would i consider working in KoW again for those dismall wages.

Yeah, the fucking twit has never lived or worked here, he's not even good at lying.

Call BS on this one - cost of Torbreck in Aus is around $23AU a bottle. Know a wine distributer in LA - retails for around $16US there. So it was either advertised as $15 or was spoilt.................newnewnewbie wrote: ↑Sun May 05, 2019 10:24 am

How would you know? You're a tourist who has so little imagination that you sit in your flop-house staring at walls.
