Aspaltso Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Its unfortunate to see such an interesting place like Cambodia get sold out like this. Here in Siem Reap its a world UNESCO sight so its pretty international but the remiander of the country from the port to the rural areas with its Chinese rice mills is no doubt getting taken over.

Linking all Xi Jingpins business interests, supplies in, products out. When he has the full economy in his control Hun Sen will go exile himself somewhere and Cambodia will be flying a different flag! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Tongue Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Since China imports Chinese laborers for Belt & Road construction, they are welcome to find all those Chinese landmines they freely gifted to the Khmer Rouge and Hun Sen factions over the decades and which are still present throughout the countryside.

SO they should be appriciated to care and build , in a country with great potential that was unfortunately destroyed by horrible regime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bollllox! They don't care. They do it for their own ends. If they weren't going to get something out of it, they would stick to building in their own country.
