Two Cambodians killed by Thai troops | National news


Those who choose to break the law and get caught should be dealt with with the law. Yes, cutting down trees is a big issue here in Cambodia and many try to get rich quick by getting into this trade, even going as far as crossing borders and many other things. But this should not give soldiers on either side reason to gun someone down unless the the person was armed. But yet again, this is Cambodia where things like this is a big problem and it doesn't seem like it's going away anytime soon.
What really gets me though is even when people know that illegal logging can get them into lots of trouble including death, they continue to do it. Illegal logging can be called the blood money of Cambodia, and for those that are pursuing this trade should really take into consideration that this trade should not be more important than their lives.

Gecko Cafe In Battambang

                        (Updated) The Gecko has moved to street #1 and is now called The Kitchen.   Food Gecko Cafe is located on the corner of Street 3 and 119. The place sits atop Gecko Moto's. I visit this place lot's of times during my stay in Battambang and when it comes to wanting a little western taste, this is one of my favorite spots.

The Taco salad I had last was great and reminded me of home a little. Also, being in Cambodia, you can't forget about the Khmer dishes.

Besides being a little pricey for the locals, the money you pay for food here is well worth it. So enjoy! Service Ano...

Police Blotter: 14 Nov 2012

It’s a bird, it’s a plane – no, it’s a tuk-tuk driver A quick-thinking tuk-tuk driver turned the tables on a pair of would-be bag snatchers in the wee hours of Monday morning, ending their shenanigans by using his own vehicle as a battering ram. The two villains, 18 and 19, made their move after the driver had picked up a pair of foreign fares at Phnom Penh International Airport. When the teens made their move, the female passenger resisted, giving our tuk-tuk hero the chance to turn his vehicle into the thugs and send them tumbling to the ground. Police have sent the duo to court.
