Pracas term deposit chart in PNH Post is an advert
As far as I recall it was not started as an advert but as an editorial/content to inform readers about rates, but clearly was created with finding a banking sugar daddy as an advertising objective. ANZ Royal had sponsored something similar for the exchange rates and it makes sense for an MFI to use ...

Canadian ELT teacher falls to his death
... deleted by Admin ... Did you report this at the time or are you a two post troll who bagged a couple of "grudge" handles in 2011? It seems a bit late to be calling foul. Death threads are often the first thing those friends and family overseas find out the person has died. I guess death comment...

ABA Bank - experiences, pro and con
I said that NBC was comparatively well run on a local basis i.e. compared to some other local ministries. My experiences with other ministries provides enough evidence to convince me of this. The NBC have (and constantly seek to explore) various sorts of international cooperations and initiatives so...

They all spam you. Metfone and Mobitel have best network coverage and quality overall.

ABA Bank - experiences, pro and con
My experience is that considerable regulation is enforced by the NBC, there are various lines and policies that everybody has to keep to and as far as government ministries go this is one of the more strictly operated and better managed ones. I'm very glad to hear this is the case. Clearly I know n...

ABA Bank - experiences, pro and con
In terms of bank liquidity the NBC enforces all banks to deposit minimum amount of $ in the national bank in order to operate. This is something like $35 million for each bank plus some additional % depending on size of deposits. This is far safer setup for consumers than the US/UK/EU banking system...

Sunrise Tacos in BKK1
I find that non-pedantic people are much more agreeable and far less likely to be teachers or to have lived in Pattaya.

Sunrise Tacos in BKK1
The place was packed when I drove by recently and will definitely try soon.
Personally I like Tacqueria Corona a lot.
Both Cantina and Alleycat are good if eating at the Riverside is your thing.

Airport secured
Orangedragon persistent countering the ummm political experts keep in mind that those same "experts", less than a year ago, swore up and down that Rainsy's party (even after the unification) wouldn't amount to shit... and maintained it up until a few weeks ago he turned it all on it's head. While l...

You can now buy Rolex at Naga Hotel.
A little more expensive than $200 though.

CPP wins election
As a longish term expat involved in the business community I would agree with the pro-CPP sentiment held by many foreign investors simply because it is a more stable option than the known tendencies of the opposition. That said, it seems somewhat positive to have a more effective opposition now on t...

CPP wins election
i also think cambodia is a much changed place from what it was then. i think the people coming out in the numbers they did, doing what they could to try and change their station in a life that's been mostly overshadowed with oppression and exploitation via the power of a vote, is a major signpost o...

Election Civil Disorder
Furthermore, Vietnam is one of Cambodia's most important trading partners, investors and source of tourists. The Vietnamese government would have to respond at the very least with a blockade and boycott which would have a very negative effect on the Cambodian economy; are you assuming the good ol' ...
