Canucks is still cute and endearing to us syrup sucking iceholes. Calling Chinese people Chinks isn't anymore.Playboy wrote:So how come Canuck is not an offensive term for those Maple Syrup Fetishist Moose Botherers living in America's baseball cap ?kansaicanuck wrote:Exactly.Playboy wrote:So you claiming that 1.5 Billion people piss and shit in the streets in public is not racist.kansaicanuck wrote:You forgot defecate/urinate in public spaces from time to time too.Alexandra wrote:Those animals smoke in shared spaces like lobbies and elevators and they spit and litter. Who wants them in their house?
But someone jist using the word 'Chink' is a racist ?
Umm'kay ...
By the way, leave our Moose outta this!

They’ve told me that they’d look to rent to a
Westerner first but if not possible they would rent to a Chinese person but for a higher rent.
I wonder if the higher rents have just become the norm after a few landlords put a higher price for Chinese and found that they were willing to pay it.
But could it be construed as racist that the owner of our little expat site here doesn't seem to mind or at the least tolerates having "Chink" in the fucking titles of some of our threads?
If I owned a building in PP and refused to rent to whiteys* I would be just as racist as if I refused to rent to chinks or naggers*
But I'd bet most if not all of the property owners would gladly rent to a Singaporean of Chinese descent, or a westener of Chinese descent.
*Seeing Chink is ok again on K440 I trust whitey and nagger is too, or does K440 has a racist policy as to what racial slurs can be used?
None but ourselves can free our mind.

Surely Khmer and Chinese are the same race any prejudice isn’t racism.Visser wrote:Doesnt matter what the race of the owner is, racism is racism.kansaicanuck wrote:That probably isn't really Racism if the owner is Khmer (Maybe even Sino-Khmer of which there are hundreds of thousands in Cambodia) and the perspective rentee is Chinese, they are both Asians.

Wouldn’t it be xenophobia?
Is it racism if it’s against a country, and not a race? There are many races in China, but people don’t want to rent to Chinese. As stated, they’d be fine with renting to an ethnically Chinese Singaporean/Malaysian/etc.
Has any white person ever gotten offended by being called whitey? My skin is quite pale and white. Go ahead and call me whitey.Visser wrote: *Seeing Chink is ok again on K440 I trust whitey and nagger is too, or does K440 has a racist policy as to what racial slurs can be used?
I can't think of one attempted ethnic slur a person of color could call me that would either genuinely hurt my feelings or inspire anger. Honkey? Cracker? Nope. What else ya got? But try calling a black person blackey and watch the violence flare.
But how and why did the market rate spike 500% in such a relatively short time? Answer: Because the Chinese drove up the market rate 500% by willingly paying 5x what the previous tenants were paying for the same unit not very long ago.Miguelito wrote:I don't have the answers to all of your other questions, but isn't LaudJohn's point that this is the new market rate?McPhisto wrote:Why would anybody willingly pay that much more over current market value?LaudJohn wrote:Well, I finally got chinesed. Landlord is getting 5 Times the rent I paid. Managed to get a place half the size for twice the rent and it is a mates rate.
The going rental for studio apartments (approx 25sqm) is $500 per month that the Chinese pay in SHV now.

So the general consensus here is that it's the online gambling that is raking in the money and the physical casinos are just a legal necessity in order to base their online gambling operations in Cambodia? But does online gambling require thousands of Chinese workers that then require so much housing which then drove up rents 500%? I dunno. I don't gamble online or offline. I assumed it was more technology, automation and computer programming, not human driven. Whateva.
I for one welcome our new Chinese overlords...and offer my service in the rounding up of others of my inferior race for extermination and/or enslavement in return for my continued freedom and a daily bowl of warm rice gruel.
You're probably onto something here. But please elaborate on this. How do online casinos that cater to mainland Chinese gamblers get them USD in Cambodia? Who is exchanging the RMB income stream for USD in Cambodia for them? Local banks? Somebody would be on the receiving end of lots of RMB, which even the Chinese don't want due to its state-controlled volatility. It's lost 3% versus the dollar this week alone.electron wrote:USD

Nope.
"We, the sons of John Company, have arrived"
If these Chinese continue these pop gun shoot outs and a Local is killed. Cambodian PM will shut them all down.
No Final warning.
