A new front page article, as new writer Dave H visits an AA meeting in Phnom Penh and considers the varying support options for expat and local alcoholics in a drinker's paradise.

Taking 12 Steps in Cambodia
I greatly enjoyed that piece. It had a personal touch, the experience of a Cambodian, background information and statistics to put things in perspective. Good feature. Hope that Paul can get things take off with the Cambodian alcoholics and that his AA meetings are helping those who are willing themselves.
The piece would've been even more compelling with less typos though. I'll be happy to proofread the next articles, Scobienz.

I would guess modern medical care would be a priority over modern mental care and similar social services. The former is probably 50 years away while the later 100 or more judging from what I've seen. There are some witchdoctors in the provinces who may be able to cure alcohol addiction with tree bark and various insect venoms, though they could be killed by locals if they conjure up the wrong ghosts and mess the whole thing up.
If you're reading this you made poor life choices.

Hah! I think a published article owes to its readers to strive for excellence. I don't know, I might be too old school.vladimir wrote:I nearly got lynched for making the same offer a year or so ago.Joon wrote:I'll be happy to proofread the next articles
