Breaking News From Phnom Penh
Just in from "The Phnom Penh Post", Monday February 16 2009:
Page 6 (national news) - "Man Robbed By Street Prostitute"
A 44-year old moto-taxi driver had his bike stolen by street prostitutes on Saturday while he was touching the girls in a Phnom Penh park. The man realized that his bike was stolen and escorted one of the prostitutes to police for questioning. The 21-year old girl admitted she'd passed the bike's key to her friend to steal while the man was busy touching her body.So, in Cambodia, a guy who touches women in a park is not a criminal. But a woman who manages to steal a bike while being "touched" is. When I complain about women making no progress in this country, please remind me of this story!
