Discount for guesthouse having no power?
Discount for guesthouse having no power?
I still pay full price, But no wifi, no air con and no power.
Just cold shower and stare at the wall....
Sure i could go outside but it feels like 45ºC .
Sorry but ten years ago there was never this bullshit about power outages and the country was dirt cheap.
Now its expensive more than even malaysia and thailand but quality remains rather dismal.
Rant over.

Ah my man pineapple, you are wrong. Power cuts 10 years ago lasted days, not just hours, at least in Temple Town.
Seeing how you earn 100k, a hotel with generator should be well within your reach.

100k does not go very far in aussie,the income taxes are like 32%
GST 10%
Medicare tax is 2%
than you have all the other taxes,christ they even had a bubget repair tax LOL
so 100k will be more like 50k. which is ok But the cost of everything is huge,you cant stay in a decent hotel for less than $500 a day,
rents on average home are like $400plus a week,if you smoke or drink they have you by the balls:)
Finally the power is back on and water working.
Not coming back to KoW untill they sort this shit out.
Too damn hot and no power/Water.
I would rather be home in australia.

Well thanks a whole lot for completely devastating the economy by not coming here, I hope you're proud of yourself.not coming back...

Not in april or may, That heat is miserable and affect ability to think clearly.
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.
Its cheaper back home, food is better, i have power and water 24/7 too.
I can even buy a 300 Lexus for under 4K $ AUD and pretend to be a khmer HISO wanker.

You mean blxwjobs by twenty somethings? You can still get that a lot of places here for a fair bargain, But you got to have social capabilities at some sort of entry level in order to find yourself a lifestyle that is compatible with your personal ambition here.
Have a great trip back home, and don't forget,
Air Asia 'now everyone can fly' (home as well, in your case) cheers
You have money you my friend, U buy from me ... Friend.
You no money....
THEN FUCK OFF....

Just do what everyone else does, and sit in your Khmer flag underpants with the kids fanning you using Chinese real estate magazines. If you're british, you could also pour teacups of tepid water over yourself every now an then.

I don't find that specific to Asia, but the culture does not associate money with shame, it's a Christian thing, really. But as far as I know, you'd have to be on social welfare to get anything for free these days, unless you are a lottery winner of course.
