Walked past a Thai dessert/cafe place earlier. I thought it abit odd that there was no khmer script written inside or outside the place - only english.
It made me wonder how khmer's in general view Thai businesses and food given the history between the two?
Do you get many Thai tourists visiting Siem Reap (Siam Defeated)?

Very few Cambodians I know ever express bad feelings towards the Thais. There were hiccups like the anti-Thai riots in 2003 and the border skirmishes in the north around Preah Vihear in 2008-11, but I don't think they resulted in too many lingering feelings. The cross border trade never stopped. As for those other neighbors.....spitthedog wrote:

December 2011
On 15 December, armies of both sides exchanged gunfire along the border in Koh Kong Province. The armed clash erupted at 13:45 in Zone 329 in Ta Min mountain after a Thai helicopter tried to land in Cambodian territory. No injuries or deaths were reported. The source said the Cambodian soldiers opened fire to prevent the Thai helicopter entering Cambodia and that the Thai soldiers responded with heavy gunfire. It was the first armed clash since Thailand's new government was formed in August.
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
