He lives at Last Home Guesthouse on Street 172. The tripadvisor reviews are not good. https://www.tripadvisor.com.ph/Hotel_Re ... _Penh.html

Also, he may have failed a drug test.

Makes so angry when they are called ATMS! Grrrrahhhhh!!!! :axe:
People saying "ATM Machine" is what should actually annoy you.
Yep, putting their PIN number into the ATM machine.
Gaaahhhhhh right?!

reminds me though of when i caught the HIV virus, from the LCD display of an ATM machine because when i went to put my PIN number in, the AC current surged the RAM memory board causing it to explode and somehow infecting me, my story was all over the CNN network surprised no ones mentioned it

In 2014 an ATM ate the card of a Czech national who forgot or mistyped his PIN.

Instead of attacking the ATM, he attacked the security guard.

The ATM had its 50th birthday today, the inventor was a Brit who thought if you can get chocolate from a machine, then why not cash?. The BBC has a quiz to honour the event.

An ABA ATM booth was set fire to last night in Kep, on the road leading to the Crab Market; https://kohsantepheapdaily.com.kh/article/168760.html

Early hours of the morning at about 3am. Thief/thieves sprayed the camera with black spray paint and used a "gas bottle" in an attempt to get at the cash, most of which looks to have burnt.

Could have been locals, could have been a foreigner considering it was in Kep and the modus operandi. The thief/thieves are described as "having skill" in the article.

Looks like they filled the machine with gas and set it on fire. There was a case like that recently in the UK for which a duo was sentenced to 36 years. http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/697148 ... d-36-years

    I never knew any of them did. Until last night, when I took $99 out of a BIDC ATM in front of the orange pharmacy on St. 51 at St. 282. Nice.
