Re: Vietnamese billionaire sentenced to death for $44bn fraud
This is not the only bank in Vietnam (or in Cambodia) that has a huge bad debt problem. More trials to follow in Vietnam, the government seems hellbent on putting a lot of tycoons in jail.

Re: Train crashes into bus in Pursat- 45 injured
If the rail crossing barriers are broken, how is it that the rail company does not have somebody there to warn traffic until it was mended? Manual/low skill labour is very cheap still in the KoW. Sorry but this railway is a national embarrassment & the government really needs to take them to task t...

Re: Train crashes into bus in Pursat- 45 injured
Agreed, horrible. What is even more horrible is that the bus driver managed to get hit by a train doing about 30 kilometers an hour. Pure fcuktardery!Chroy Changvarite wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2024 5:59 amThat is horrible I’m guessing the 45 that were injured were all on the bus?

What a real man, battering a woman half his size!!! I do hope he goes to jail for this as the days of physical retribution are apparently over in the Kingdom.

Re: Saffa takes to Facebook after 'scam' drink driving/helmet fine of $250
Not sure it was a fine or if it went into the coppers pocket, but if I had been caught drunk and with a helmet, I'd just keep quiet and be happy I got away with it. I see them testing for alcohol all over the place recently.

Re: Barang Beer Bus Busted
I only started seeing it last week. From what I saw, there are no seatbelts or anything; that driver hits the break and more than a few pints will end up broken.
If memory serves, this was tried in Siem Reap many years ago bit quickly ran afoul of the competent authorities too.

Re: Burmese businessman with £110,000/5 Million Baht on him killed by two dark-skinned Scotsmen in Bangkok!
Can't really see where the "dark-skinned" comes from? There is talk about some "black liquid" and whilst the black money scam originates from West Africa, nowhere in the article does it actually say that that was what was going on.

Re: Few countries are better placed than Vietnam to get rich
