Sure vivien. I do not make many voice calls accept over line or whattsapp, so I can keep that part down. I also am with smart but I have the power saver plus 8 plan at 8$ a month. You pay 2 cents a minute for regular calls and get messaging free. ... Read More

If i may suggest another option to russian market. Try Toul Kork. Quiet but plenty of bars close, not the girly bars downtown where you can not milk a drink without 6 girls asking for you to support their family. most places have night security, ... Read More


Accommodation and Prices by joolsd
I find it amusing how, on this forum platform and many others, agents in particular seem to think all °µÍø½ûÇøs are loaded. (yes I know it's common) Not all all of us, in fact many of us can not afford $600 to $1000 a month rent!! So instead of ...

Thrift Clothes in Phnom Penh by Vdalin
I start thinking of starting thrift clothes shop in Phnom Penh and seeking for you'all ideas. What do you guys think about thrift clothes?

Vdalin, i will make one more suggestion to you. A lot of the existing second hand clothes shops here ignore one or two thing. They do not iron the clothes so they look second hand, buy a good steamer or iron and hang them up. A lot of the clothes ... Read More

I think you are onto something. But be aware, there already is an underground thrift clothes market here. Those in the know about them. Thrift clothes must be good quality, since many entrepreneurs go to thailand and china and bring back in bulk. ... Read More

I will give my 2 cents worth. I agree with all that say you are overpaying firstly. A really nice apartment in nice area should be 400, 500$ tops for luxury. A two bedroom western standard maybe 300$. Be careful of some agents as they are like ... Read More
