Fireworks and Unity Mark Cambodian King’s 72nd Birthday
KT Sokunthea PHNOM PENH, 15 May 2025 — Cambodia lit up in celebration yesterday as fireworks burst above the Tonle Sap River to honour King Norodom Sihamoni’s 72nd birthday, a national occasion that united citizens and leaders alike in tribute to the monarch’s enduring role as a symbol of unity and peace. Hundreds gathered outside the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh, their faces aglow with colour and pride, as the night sky was set ablaze with pyrotechnics. The atmosphere was festive yet reverent, with cheers mingling with moments of quiet respect for the man many credit with upholding the nation’s harmony. Leading figures, including Prime Minister Hun Manet and Senate President Hun Sen, praised the King’s quiet but influential presence in Cambodian society. Hun Sen described him as the “supreme symbol of national unity,” commending his commitment to peace, democracy, and the nation’s development. Despite holding no executive power, King Sihamoni is widely respected for his moral leadership and diplomatic efforts. In recent years, he’s strengthened Cambodia’s global standing through visits to Japan, China, Vietnam, and France, while maintaining close ties with local communities at home. “His Majesty has always been a guiding presence,” said 23-year-old Min Amin from Tboung Khmum province. “This year’s celebration was meaningful, but I hope future events will be even more welcoming, especially for international guests.” Earlier in the day, the Union of Youth Federations of Cambodia held a blessing ceremony, offering prayers for the King’s health and longevity. Buddhist monks spoke of his legacy and compassion, noting how his work promotes Khmer unity and national identity. For many, the King represents continuity—carrying forward the royal virtues of his father, King Norodom Sihanouk. Citizens like Moeung Ratana, a university student, highlighted his role in diplomacy, education, and cultural preservation. As fireworks faded into the night, the sense of national pride remained. While largely ceremonial, King Sihamoni’s reign continues to resonate deeply with Cambodians, who view him as a steady figure in a rapidly changing world. -2025-05-15 -

Anyone ever had a car at the smash repairs in Thailand?
It's the same everywhere Some paint shops are good and some are useless cowboys. Not many shops have a proper spray booth. My nearest one is 100 km away. Without a proper spray booth I would advise not having paintwork done during high humidity weather. -

Report Thailand Expands Alcohol Sale Venues Amid New Law Changes
Until those geeks got their act together I can only recommend to all those living along the border, say the Mekong, to hop across to the Comrades on such days. There you have zero restrictions (maybe a different Buddhism is celebrated there) and there are also no restriction on hours during the day, when you cannot buy booze as in Thailand. Thailand is a far cry away from professional and welcoming tourism business. What is applied to the uneducated underlings in the land keeps the distinguished dirty Farang tourist away. Latter, being educated, mature and an adult, does not need anyone breathing down their neck, be it as retiree or as a tourist. Until that is understood, Thailand can only benefit of arguably better domestic infrastructure compared to its neighbours. -
