Re: Brit tourist Ben Wilkins in bad way : My brother Ben is fighting for his life in Cambodia
There is also something weird about the timeline. He fell into a coma in Koh Rong… then he went back to Siem Reap? Before getting a 5.5 hour ambulance trip to PP. Sounds like he got sick on Koh Rong, then sufficiently got better and went ‘home’ to Siem Reap before falling sick again. Or maybe the ‘c...

Re: changing Yuan to Riel
You ain’t from round here are you? Addresses are not so useful in PP.
I’d recommend starting here
www.google.com/maps/
And search for Ly Hour.
There are loads of them spread over the city, just choose the closest one to your current location.

Re: New foodie destinations
Amigos on 63 Brazilian buffet, $10/lunch I went there with a friend a couple of days ago The meat is ok, but rather disappointing for a Brazilian restaurant. the rest of the buffet is sad and miserable. Very little variety, most sides seem to be some form of pasta bathing in a cheesy sauce. No pota...

Re: Loony keto nutritionist been threatening Kampot residents
He posted this on one of the PP expat pages, someone commented asking for his experience & qualifications and he replied with a random, almost incoherent comment which really demonstrated the level of his writing abilities. Then he turned off commenting...

Re: biopsy cost
Maybe I should have said 'had a loan of' 'had a lent of' is downunder slang "Lent is the past tense of lend, which means to give someone money or goods with the expectation that it be given back." Except I do not expect to get my money back. Paid $150 cash in hand to the male nurse. Generally at a ...

Re: How do you get around town? Poll.
I’m surprised there’s only 1 car owner. There must be fewer Americans in the group than I thought. The reason being that as a foreigner, Cambodian laws made it difficult for foreigner to buy and own a car. To rent a car is very expensive for an average tourists and not well established here. It not...

Re: Cambodians Who Refuse to Drink Alcohol
There seem to be regular posts on the Cambodia Scammers Facebook page nowadays warning about people who refuse to drink alcohol. Teetotaling Cambodians clearly can't be trusted. https://i.postimg.cc/C53MJRJJ/Screenshot-2024-03-12-192419.jpg I'd like to see original Khmer text. Facebook translate is...

Re: British expats and the state pension
My giddiness at saving £3 ish a week following the chancellors autumn announcement was premature. I got a letter this week saying the new rate is £3.45 a week. So I investigated more, turns out the abolishment of class2 Nat ins doesn’t apply to those living and working abroad. But paying £3.45 a we...

Re: ABA transfer to UK bank with wise
Cyril, are you a grown-up? Have you ever done any banking before.
Honestly the process isn't difficult. You've been told what you need to do. No easier way to explain it.
