Re: Mr. Sok - legendary cyclo driver in City of Ghosts - passed away
I watched that the other day, seen it before though. I’ve ridden past the old hotel countless times never realised it was there. Would’ve like to have met Snow. He was a bit out there! Full on type. I wonder if Matt Dillon etc knows? Yes, Matt posted on his Instagram. My first trip to Cambodia in 2...

Mr. Sok - legendary cyclo driver in City of Ghosts - passed away
I know everyone here loved Srash - Kem Serevuth - known as Mr. Sok in City of Ghosts. His family contacted me to attend the 7th day funeral, which was today. They tried to get in touch with his friend Sebastian, but couldn't find a way, so if you see this, please reach out to them. He was feeling si...

Re: What were the first 4 chat sites you were on about SEA
Only Khmer440 - back in 2006 - it was my lifeline until I moved to Cambodia the next year. When I got here I had savings to live on, so I hung out a lot with everyone, but then I had to earn a living, so it seemed I disappeared. Schedule is much more flexible now, so glad to be back.

Re: Who is or was the most famous.....
Andy in Asia In what twisted universe is andyinasia "famous"? Oops... I thought we expanded to "legendary vs famous" (Bubble T) and "infamous" (Orange Dragon) I would add "memorable" to the list. Andy was certainly active on this board and caused quite a stir in his day. I agree with so many of the...

Re: Cambodia Visas
I just found out that with the new visa overstay ($10 per day), if you are more than 30 days over, you must leave the country... no paying the fine and renewing the visa. I am trying to find out if there is a minimum amount of days before renewal, i.e. are border runs still possible or do you have t...

Re: 2 Destitute Brits Sleeping Rough Outside Embassy
Just an update: James hasn't seen Nick again, of course, he's not specifically gone out to look for him, just being aware that if he sees Nick, to give a call to a friend who passed us his number. As I told James, most of the time the consensus on Khmer 440 is that people should be left to their own...

Re: 2 Destitute Brits Sleeping Rough Outside Embassy
As I just posted on Facebook:
My son has seen him twice. Yesterday he was at Psar Kandal around 3pm. I have alerted my son to call me immediately if he sees him again. He said he's scared and wants to go home but the embassy won't help - that is his state of mind. James gave him some food.

Re: Unconscious After Crash or Mob Justice?
OWNED!! I heard a similar incident happened at St 19 in front of Colours and the Opera House last night. Any witnesses to that one? I think I happened upon the one on St 13/178 - I don't remember the exact day now, but it may have been the one you are talking about. Quite unexpected and unusual sto...

Re: Looking for INTERIOR DESIGNER
I agree. In this case it is the client's choice, as we already recommended qualified Khmers (some who did work designing at AEON), but they want a foreigner. So if anyone wants the job...
