It's slow going, memories become fuzzy, many can't be substantiated, and many perpetrators have since become powerful people and some story-telling dry up when I am asking for too much details.
The stories might not end up here, not good for my health.

This I can't agree more. In the 80s, Taiwanese were the first to come in. It was so easy to apply for a Cambodian ID then. Less than USD20. They came and bought a lot of land. Some of them were in joint names with Cambodian. So, when the property prices went up, I can probably tell you 100 different stories of how they got cheated by their local partners, spouses and powerful people. So many interesting stories on the Cambodian tycoons. I probably know what most of the locals know plus direct from them as well. Ahh..look forward to sharing you come one day I am there
Will pm you.
