Australian Journalist Terry Friel Stabbed by Stabby Khmer Fiancee
The video GM posted is classic.
Is the stretcher split in half and the guy's on the street? Is that a security guard wrapping the stabbed foot in yellow plastic? Why is nobody like up by his chest/head, talking to him and seeing if he's alright, or stabbed somewhere else, or if he knows his name, etc?

In a country where first aid usually consists of covering wound in buffalo shit, burying burn victims in sand, or vigorously shaking an unconscious person up and down, this is as good as it gets.backhome1 wrote:The video GM posted is classic.

When I was applying for a tourist visa to Australia for my then Cambodian partner in 2008, an Australian Embassy official told me the criteria they use when judging applications.
The most relevant point to the Friel case was that a Cambodian based Australian sponsor had to prove they were earning a steady income of at least $1000 per month here before the application would be considered. The figure has probably risen since then.
This probably explains why Friel's application for his girlfriend was rejected. If he was no longer working at the KT as editor and was not receiving a regular salary, the application would have been automatically denied.

A white female fossil wrote on facebook that:
It sounds like she is condoning domestic violence.Barang men can be absolute jerks towards their girlfriends. In a way it's surprising that more don't get cleavered.

Hurt feels are far more important than hurt bodies in 2016.

The best comments on Facebook are from an Italian woman who writes:
That kind of attack has no excuses and no justifications. I have been living two years among those animals and I know them. What are you? The good Knight defending the shit Kingdom???

Sad to see a tragedy being used by certain people to spread hate and racism. Again.

To the Italian woman's credit, she also wrote:
If she thought of that herself, it's quite creative of her.Bastard Khmers, always thinking about money and nothing else. They don't have any feelings. They only have FEELING$.
