How invasive is it?
I can appreciate people taking advantage of the possibilities available within Cambodia to start new businesses that have been tried and tested elsewhere already, however how invasive is it?
people chase the bucks at the cost of uniqueness. We are a sad species.
the same self control required in areas such as drug intake in Cambodia is required for business start ups I reckon. Just 'cos you can, doesn't mean you should.

If there is a demand why should there not be a supply? People chase bucks by providing products and services that other people want to give bucks in exchange for. I don't understand the problem with that.

.
What do you mean by invasive?
How is starting a new business invasive? How does a new business invade you unless you choose to frequent it?
Note to self: Must be nice to morons.

There is nothing invasive about it at all. Businesses only survive if people want that business to survive. If it survives, it is serving a need in the community it serves. It is wanted by that community. Therefore it can't be invasive.
Violet's just upset that she can't remember the last time she got invaded.

Rubbish. If people want them, who are you to say someone shouldn't meet that demand and make money out of it.
You boasted here a while back about being a great businessman. Surely you understand the basic principles of supply and demand.

people can do what they like of course. Same as they can choose to ride without helmets and take hard drugs bought from a moto dop in Cambodia on a street corner within days of arrival. doesn't mean it is the most productive course of action.
I am one of those people that likes the remote coast line (any remote coast line anywhere) to stay remote coast line... not to be developed. I'm also someone who doesn't want a replica Melbourne in Phnom Penh. If people living in Phnom Penh want the same as what they left behind, why did they leave it behind?

Economics are not driven by most productive course of action. It is driven by whether there is a market for something or not, and whether people are willing to supply or not and at what cost.
You insinuate that the same people who left Melbourne behind are the ones who copycat businesses here. I don't see your connection there, could you perhaps give a few business names as an example?
People copy successful market models because their predecessors have been successful. Nobody copies a failed business, but many copy successful businesses and fail. That's how business is, some succeed others fail.
