I think they made up the knife to get more money
"Made up the knife" ? What do you mean?billybonkers wrote:I think they made up the knife to get more money
Did you by any chance tell the police your real name and nationality? Or did you perhaps make up a name (Thomas) and told them you were Mexican?
Just seems a really random nationality for them to label you with.
And, the oddest part of the article to me were the sentences when you are alleged to have asked "what did I do wrong?", and then added the detail that you had been in a 'fight at least once this year already'. Did you say anything like that?

Bloody inflation , only cost me fifty dollars and a thumb print when I whacked a tuk tuk driver six years ago. Money well spent in my opinion.billybonkers wrote:Of course i had to pay the money or they were going to throw me in jail

What's interesting is that billybonkers posted six weeks ago here asking for advice on applying to Sovannaphumi school:billybonkers wrote: im not mexican or 27 and i dont work at sovanaphume and i had the money but the police wouldnt let me go to the atm.

He did post there though that he had decided on Westline, but he was annoyed they were making him pay tax. Maybe he switched to Sovannaphumi?

The made up knife seems to be quite real, it's shown as evidence in thisbillybonkers wrote:I think they made up the knife to get more money
(report starts at 14 minutes)
The information in the report is pretty much identical to the Rasmei Kampuchea article. She could well be reading it.
Only difference comes at the very end of her reading, and she says the same as the last paragraph here http://khmeread.com/posts/7986 - That 'Thomas' offered 'to resolve the dispute with the motodop and offered $300, but as he didn't have the money on him he'd come back in the morning with it. The motodop didn't want to agree to this compensation (doesn't say if he wanted to press charges or wanted more money), but the other (10?) locals from the scene persuade him to accept it as they didn't want it to become a long drawn out proceedings, so the motodop agreed to accept the compensation.'
At the end of Hang Meas read report the old male presenter asks for simplified clarification and asks "Whose the aggressor and whose the victim?"
She answers and recaps, stating that the Mexican attacked the dop just for asking if he needs a ride. She then restates that the Mexican said to the police that "once a year he fights with someone"
At this point the old guy goes off on one (This is the geezer Felgerkarb's wife has noticed talking contemptuously about foreigners) and says that therefore Khmers should arrest a Mexican once a year and put one in jail.
He then asks her if there is anything more to the story, she says she doesn't know, he then says that if the aggressor couldn't understand Khmer he shouldn't just attack someone, "it's not proper (i.e. contrary to the local laws or customs)"
He finishes the segment by saying there's nothing else to it, it's just ខុសទំនង (senseless, illogical; contrary to tradition, improper; wrong, incorrect, unorthodox).

I fail to see how they would have known that he fights once a year. What's your summation of the whole thing Rama?

Thomas told them that. You might have missed Rama'a earlier post, where he summarizes the article and covers that:Mr Lovejuice wrote:I fail to see how they would have known that he fights once a year. What's your summation of the whole thing Rama?

No, I saw it. I just can't believe he would have told them that. I'm sure they were paraphrasing with an anti-barang bent myself.gavinmac wrote:Thomas told them that.

Ah! the old chopperoo eh? He must have got that idea from the girls. I think there is potential for many barang to go off on one about once a year. It just builds up. The more stable ones learn to go home and self-harm as it's safer.
Sometimes in Cambodia you just have to eat shit. Dirty smelly great big piles of the stuff. Other times, it's OK.

We went through this six weeks ago on the Erdmann matter. Foreigner arrested, Cambodian press reports, it, foreigner goes on Khmer440 and says "Yes, I was arrested but the story is a lie and the press is making stuff up." Erdmann turned out to be lying, of course.Mr Lovejuice wrote: No, I saw it. I just can't believe he would have told them that. I'm sure they were paraphrasing with an anti-barang bent myself.
I believe the press reported that he's Mexican and works at Sovannaphumi because he told the police or press that he's Mexican and works at Sovannaphumi. I believe they wrote that he gets into a fight once a year because he told them something like that.
I don't think there is a vast anti-whitey conspiracy among members of the Cambodian press to fabricate reports of bad behavior. They get enough grist for that mill from just reporting the truth about the behavior of white dudes in Cambodia.
