Re: Marriage in Cambodia
My wife took our paperwork to the district office and got our marriage paperwork sorted out.I don;t really know how much she paid but she is Khemer and knows how to barter with local officials and will not pay one riel more than she thinks that is fair so I doubt if it was expensive as I did not he...

Re: American expat Eric Erdmann arrested in Phnom Penh
Nothing more to add other than his ethnicity is listed as ‘Non-Hispanic’ what’s that about? Is that an ethnicity in USA?
Also… the years haven’t been kind, have they?

Re: ABA transfer to UK bank with wise
And the funds not yet transferred sit in an account paying out returns based on stock market - this has returned c.25% in the past 12 months. There's no fixed deposit period on those funds? That I didn't know if so. Nope, they reserve a small percentage to cover any potential drops in the market. S...

Re: ABA transfer to UK bank with wise
Everyone claims that their preferred option is the best. I use Wise, been happy with them and they have improved their transfer times over the years - now the funds can be in my account in as little as half a day if I time the transfer right. It's dead simple for me, a transfer is set-up in less tha...

It sounds like she has already found her home.
Always amazed how stray cats manage to look clean.

Re: TV Club- Good Things to Watch
I am half way through the 6 episodes of the Northern Ireland based crime series Blue Lights. It’s pretty good. It’s excellent. Didn’t know it would appeal so much to the international audience. I knew one of the writers when we were kids. Hadn’t heard from him in years and suddenly his name was all...

Re: Marriage in Cambodia
I'm, getting fed up with these forums (fora). Responses go unposted - seemlingly selectively so. The responses provided are great, really helpful, those that I see. There's a few responders who're massively helpful with heaps of very useful information everyone needs, should they ask for. And then ...

Re: Marriage in Cambodia
Well, I'm not really wanting to lie on official documents or anywhere else. The truth is we're married - to each other! When I said to my wife that the advice was to go directly to the MoFAIC 'for advice and information' her first reaction was they'll see a barang and want money! We'll have a copy ...

Re: Marriage in Cambodia
Many hundreds (thousands?) of ethnic Khmers have no doubt tied the knot outside Cambodia, say in France, Australia, USA, even, in the 80's & early 90's, in border Camps just inside Thailand, are they too all legally single as soon as they touch down in the Kingdom of Wonder? Does anyone know of any...

Re: Marriage in Cambodia
Can't you just pay cash money to a fixer to make it all go away? That's bribery. Huge potential consequences,, just askk miguelito. He should do the right thing and divorce his wife. Then he'll get the certificate of non impediment et voilà ! free to marry. You're joking but that is exactly the adv...

Re: Marriage in Cambodia
Thanks for the info. Given that situation it may well be easier to tell them we're single and just get married over again! Cheers> It’s not quite as simple as telling them you are single. You need a ‘no impediment to marriage’ doc from your embassy - so if already married in your home country then ...

Re: Father who stabbed teen daughters rapist released from custody
I read the story online a few days ago but thought it was some exaggerated/sensationalised story from a crappy link hunting FB page.
Really sad to see that it was true.
