A Cambodian government official has reiterated that casino developments are not permitted in the “area” of Angkor Wat (pictured), in Siem Reap, which gives its name to a city and province in northwest Cambodia.

Hong Kong-listed casino investor NagaCorp Ltd had said in its interim results filed on August 27 that it was planning to “explore viable and profitable IR development in [the] Siem Reap and Sihanoukville areas”.

NagaCorp has a long-lasting casino monopoly for Cambodia’s capital, Phnom Penh, and immediate surroundings.

Good...this place is revered by Cambodians and does not need to become a gambling den!

For reference:- there are no tall buildings/tower blocks in Siem Reap as nothing can be constructed higher than sacred Angor Wat - everything looks UP to Buddha, not down (unlucky)!! So no high rise Chinese hotels and casinos in Siem Reap - perhaps just low level ones no more than 5 floors high (the maximum) in the future.

https://leavingmaga.org/ Dear MAGA Americans, I was a devoted member of MAGA nation for seven years; it made me feel I was part of something important: a movement that was trying to save American democracy. But starting in 2021, I realized I had been mistaken. It took me a full year to finally break away. During that time, I came to understand that MAGA is sustained by a series of myths that are intended to create perpetual feelings of desperation and panic. Succumbing to these predatory myths

Over 300,000 kids bunk off school - England World Cup

Over 300,000 kids bunk off school, seemingly more interested in football than education. I wonder if these are the same kids the rightwing pearl clutchers insist are being discriminated against in schools? https://www.theguardian.com/education/2026/jul/06/thousands-of-children-absent-from-school-in-wake-of-overnight-england-world-cup-win

Farage faces Clacton showdown as rivals refuse to stand Nigel Farage's dramatic gamble to resign as MP and force a by-election has taken another extraordinary twist after Labour, the Conservatives, the Liberal Democrats, the Greens and Restore Britain all announced they will not contest the seat. The Reform UK leader resigned his Clacton seat insisting voters—not Westminster—should judge the allegations surrounding his finances. If re-elected, Farage says he will return to Parliament with an

At a recent Oversite hearing on the SPLC. After a bit of round & round Q&A from Fair, Gill said the SPLC has referred to the Totenkopf as a "racist skinhead symbol", Yet this same organization now finds itself soft pedaling its association with a Dem Senate candidate in Maine who proudly wore this Nazi SS death’s head tattoo for years before covering it up. The hypocrisy , the SPLC eagerly brands conservatives and ordinary Americans as "extremists" for far less, but suddenly gets to
