A step into Khmer Rouge history

Don't ever get the all inclusive 'VIP' bus from Don Dhet to Phnom Penh! After the dodgiest border crossing to date (3 $1 'charges' for no apparent reason..), the VIP ticket we'd all bought turned out to be for a clapped out old minibus with no aircon and teenage drivers.. The people who'd bought tickets all the way to Siem Reap had been totally conned though, being told they'd have to stay somewhere overnight before getting to where they want to go... they eventually shelled out $40 between t...

... feeling about them. we walked around the place for a while longer but found it really depressing.We were glad we went but it is not something we would do again phnom Penn is a really nice place though it is not as built up a the city's we went to in Vietnam but it is pretty clean and they have some beautiful temples its such a shame that it is such a poor country.

The next day we left for Sihanoukville

Festival Time

... Bunnies, and we have everyone wandering around in a circle, the senior girls performing better than some of the dancers on the television, the smaller ones chasing after them, hands extended and flapping wildly. As the party ends the smaller children are fighting sleep to get the very last out of their day, before succumbing in the arms of the nearest adult. A busy day indeed.

So we looked out the window instead... all the animals we see, cows, buffalos and mules, are so thin their ribs are prominently displayed, it's sad to see. The dogs don't look too bad though, i even saw two of them going at it on someone's lawn, along with a horse getting excited while munching grass, he could've been drinking snake rice wine. Maybe we should've been watching the movie after all.

... and blared Khmer pop music that resembled Britney Spears or The Backstreet Boys accompanied by drunken singing. Dogs howled and became fiercely territorial, streaming out of front gates and chasing us until we no longer seemed a threat. Mosquito nets and hammocks lined the balconies as whole families slept outside, children poking their heads out to watch us pass.
When we arrived at my house the lights were off and a padlock was on the front gate. I was momentarily ...

For the return trip we asked the driver if he would be the passenger and we be the driver. Now, this is not a nice quiet street but has sooo much traffic!! Sitting up on the cyclo is very high and brake is lever behind your seat & it is really weird trying to brake this ...

Per non dimenticare e mostrare alle nuove generazioni quanta crudelta' puo' infliggere l'uomo, nella scuola che dopo la presa di potere di Pol Pot divenne teatro di torture e interrogatori da parte dei Khmer Rossi, e' stato istituito il museo di Tuol Sleng (Museo del Genocidio). Nell'edificio conosciuto come prigione di sicurezza S-21, piu' di 20.000 persone furono prelevate e ...

There Is No 'i' In Team. But There Is An 'am'.

... Had a lot of marketing experience, very rare in Cambodia.

  • All the interviews were in English, imagine if you were asked to a job interview and had to go through all the normal stress this brings, and then be told that you can only speak Esperanto.
  • To begin with his answers seemed to contain genuine concern for the problems his country faced.

    The leader of that prison, El Duch, is currently under trial here in Phnom Penh.

    Just outside Phnom Penh, at Choeng Ek, prisoners were trucked into what become known as the Killing Fields. Pits dot the fields, each one the resting place of hundreds of slaughtered ...

    We did see some interesting things though. From the chaotic looking floating market to the beauty of more rural parts of the delta, a visit to a Cham village and a fish farm. Also one couple on the tour were from France but the lady was actually Cambodian and the man was Vietnamese so that invited myself and another lady to a really authentic meal just eating street food. It was a very good ...
