Officials call on US to take responsibility for chemical bombs

Defence Minister Tea Banh, Health Minister Mam Bunheng and Prime Minister Hun Sen’s son Hun Manith all visited Svay Rieng’s Koki commune last week, calling on the US to take responsibility for chemical weapons found there and blaming US chemical bombs for causing deformities in villagers.

Two Vietnam War-era barrel bombs containing CS tear gas were discovered in Koki commune in January. Demining officials began to excavate the bombs last month, following an anti-American tirade from Hun Sen. Since officials descended on the commune, at least 14 more “similar” bombs have been reported.

Bunheng visited the area on Thursday, and according to government-aligned media source Fresh News discovered three villagers suffering from birth defects.

The World Cup Was A Great Success Until THAT Happened.

BLMFem · yesterday at 09:21 AM1 day

I detest Trump for a variety of reasons, and now he's given me one more. Despite the grave misgivings I, and many, many more, had going into this WC ( ICE, the visa issues, a top referee turned away, the treatment of the Iranian team etc.) the WC was turning into a great success, bringing people from all over the world together, including lots of Americans, many of who seemed to develop an interest in, and an enjoyment of, the beautiful game. Partly, this was because of an American side that pl

US woman's UK move changed everything

bannork · 32 minutes ago32 min

An American woman who swapped life in the United States for the UK says the move completely changed her outlook—and left her convinced she'd been sold the wrong idea of success for years. Mindy Hickson says living in Britain has shown her what she calls "the simple life" and challenged everything she once believed about happiness. Sharing her experience on her YouTube channel, The Hickson Diaries, Mindy listed seven reasons why she believes life in the UK offers a different way of living. Her c

unblocktheplanet replied to kwilco's topic in General Topics

I have been reading a very thorough and interesting book by Donny Gluckstein, A People's History of the Second World War: Resistance versus Empire. Of course, the author quotes both Zinn and Terkel! The thesis is that two parallel wars were taking place. The official military war of Allies against Axis that was essentially a imperialist war from both sides. The second war was that waged by the underground people's resistance. Fascinating stuff. "The USA was equally cynical in its approach to peace. As one leading politician put it: ‘As things are now going, the peace we will make, the peace we seem to be making, will be a peace of oil, a peace of gold, a peace of shipping ... without moral purpose ... .’ Devoid of moral purpose, maybe, but Hull, Roosevelt’s Secretary of State, explained the USA would lead ‘a new system of international relationships ... primarily for reasons of pure national self-interest." That continues to this day.

GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub

Are you NUTS? Of course, I knew, many years ago, what an ellipsis was, and is. You underestimate my genius, as usual. Did you imagine that anyone graduating from the University of Pennsylvania, the HOME of the famous Linguistics Genius, Noam, would not know? Give me a break, Sir. Concerning the Dunning Kruger effect, how could anyone not know? This has become a Buzz Term in recent years. As for being the dumbest person in the room: I have been there, done that....and..... This is why I restrict my musings to the AseanNow Forum. I am tired of being the dumbest person in the room. Here on TV, I am the smartest person in the room. I love TV, for this very reason. But, I must tell you: The students at Penn are NOT as smart as they once were, in my day.

Camerata's Guide To The Permanent Residence Process
Camerata's Guide To The Permanent Residence Process

Maestro replied to camerata's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

I'd like to update myself on the stamps put by immigration into the passport of a Permanent Resident. Does a Permanent Resident nowadays still need to get a stamp (endorsement, non-quota immigrant visa, re-entry permit or whatever it may be labelled nowadays) in his passport before leaving Thailand so as not to forfeit his permanent residence status? If so, what does this stamp look like? What is the TM form number to apply for it? What is the fee for it? What does the arrival stamp being given upon arrival in Thailand with such an entry permit look like?
