Re: Struggling from Living in PP to back in US
I find this all very bizarre but, like, refreshing because it's so honest. He aspires to get a low-level teaching job. He is calling everyone "ratchet". No car, not into chicks, finds Khmer men too "smooth". Blew all his money at Aeon of all places. I think it is lovely to read and please carry on. ...

Re: Amelia Bambridge Missing in Cambodia
Unfriendly locals?! There’s a smile and wave on every corner be it an old man, young teen or child. Maybe they’re a bit jaded in the tourist spots, like Angkor Wat, but that’s to be expected when you have so many white privileged tourists ambling around. I think you’re getting confused with Thailan...

Re: Do you have a duty to your Khmer wife to go and live in Barangland together?
Absolutely not, the one time we went, she was chilled in July, she disliked all the food, I was attacked by locals and the like for having a younger import, my friends all looked like they wanted to hump her, .. apart from the bread and more reliable infrastructure, it wasn't worthwhile. Of course ...

Re: Do you have a duty to your Khmer wife to go and live in Barangland together?
She will be developing her life in both countries. She will be here for six months and in Asia for six months. It wasn’t meant to be an example. I specifically said at the outset that it’s different strokes for different folks. The assumption should be from there there is no typical example and no ...

Re: Cashless Card for Barangs?
Ha, it used to have one in the 70's, now it has an over load of 'public service' employees waisting their time eating donuts and drinking coffee, while discussing endless ways of paying for it all, by selling the few remaining private business entities to the Chinese. Which country is it that you a...

Re: Cashless Card for Barangs?
You are in Cambodia because your home country has a social safety net? And you are saying others are there for that reason too?newnewnewbie wrote: ↑Tue Sep 17, 2019 5:19 pmSounds just terrible. The nanny state is hell, and why many of us are here in the first place.

Re: On Being Back
Let's recap then: A sort of snarky and puerile shoot-down of what I posted the other day, followed by a challenge or two, followed by a very quick but clumsy walk-back. Meanwhile a scolding for the sin of taking what you posted at face value (how dare we!). If you post something stupid and someone p...

Re: Love and Loss in Cambodia: A Memoir
Horace Johnny Flash's father came over to Cambodia a few days after he died. I didn't know the family as John and I were only friends in Cambodia (though both American). But they needed someone to take them around to the embassy and to try to find out where John banked and get his money out, and to ...

Re: Love and Loss in Cambodia: A Memoir
Vespa went in 2010 to be replaced by pedal power, got tired of the cops pulling me over and even more tired of tilting the fucking the thing to start it and double tired of taking it to the mechanics every other week. One of the best moves I ever made that and getting a dog. Both changed my life wi...

On Being Back
I visited recently, over the last few weeks. I did NOT think too much of it. I lived in PP from 2001 to 2010 and like it or not those were the Golden Years. I think some long-time posters on here can attest to that. I think the city is horrible to the point that had I arrived there for the first tim...
