[QUOTE=Gumbyy]Who is driving all these luxurious Lexus Land Cruisers I see in PP? Is it Cambodia's newly rich people? Or is it the self-denying do-gooders in the NGOs?[/QUOTE]Hi Gumbyy,

Cambodia has a system of colour coding that exists on car registration plates. From this you can tell the vehicles registered as military, private or NGO. I'm struggling to remember the details but am thinking that white background is 'Private', Green background is NGO and Blue is military[Can anyone else help out here?].

As PhantomTiger says, the white Land Cruiser is almost standard issue to NGO and I think you will find the more flash, 4x4 and Hummers, belonging to private individuals; the gap between the rich and the poor in Cambodia is flaunted so blatantly!

Yes, the military plates are blue and say RCAF on them.

Hey guys,

Thanks for all the good info here, I think I have almost all the information I need for my first trip to PP next month.

One thing I haven't been able to find is any information about the FCC. Foreign Correspondents Club. I have been booked to stay here by the guys I am travelling with and would like any info anybody has on location for nightlife and whether it is girl friendly etc.

Cheers

Kavorka,

the FCC is right in the middle of the Riverside cafes, restaurants & bars. In PP nothing is too far by moto. From the FCC it's about 5 mins to St51, 10 mins to St104/108 and about 10-15 mins to Martini's.

I'm not sure how GF the rooms at the FCC are, I doubt whether I would feel comfortable bringing a girl back there. Nice place though.

enjoy, enjoy,

Kens.

No problems whatsoever in FCC. As they are restaurant based what goes on in the room side of the business goes largely unnoticed. Well done scoring a room there - they are booked solid most of the time!

Location is good. Timings to the various haunts as per Kens below (less a couple of minutes on each journey).

FCC is in one of the most picturesque parts of the city. Excellent location. You overlook the Tonle Sap River, food is great, beer cold, and no issues with guests. You are in walking distance of many restaurants and bars. Also within 5-15 minutes by motobike to the other bars and nighclub areas in PP. Enjoy it ! !

Hi boys,

I heard there were some hairdressing salons in PP where you get bj to go with your haircut. Can somebody tell me where exactly are they? I saw some on St. 63 that I wasn't sure about, but it's not like I can walk in and ask "Excuse me, miss, will you blow me afterwards?"

Hope you can help, I really need a haircut :)

I sent an e-mail to FCC via their web site regarding "joiners". They very quickly replied "I would like to inform you there is no problem for that". So indeed there is no problem bringing ladies back for an overnight.

Ok, so I had already read all the reports against going to St 63. But I was curious...

So I had a walk down from Sorya shopping center, to see what I might find. After about 15 mins of walking, I wasn't seeing anything interesting, so headed back on the other side. Passed a place with motos sitting around. One called out 'massage'. I asked him how much and where they were. Upstairs, $10. Fine, I'm not going to haggle.

He opens those big metal doors in front of every shop and then closes them behind me. I'm on my guard, my boxing training always present and ready, should something untoward happen. I was wearing a pouch with my $1400 camera in it too, perhaps this wasn't wise. Anyway, I'd rather have it with me, than in my hotel which anyone could get into. I sat down and looked at the available talent. 4 girls, a couple cute. Choose one, go upstairs into a seedy little room with condoms on the floor.

Clothes off, hang them on the wall next to the door. Interesting, I note how she moved mine closer to the door. Alarm bells were going off, probably should've been going off louder come to think of it. So anyway, I declined her suggestion of a massage with my face down. So i jumped on top and started plowing her. I don't know what triggered me to look behind, for there was no sound, but I did and saw a hand reaching into the room. I yelled and jumped toward the door, the hand disappeared quickly and was gone. I checked my stuff. All there. I wasn't done, but still hard. Maybe excitement like this is really my kind of thing, but I wasn't going to gamble further. I ripped the condom off and got dressed. I knew this must've been the same place that ripped Pirate1 off, so I was expecting pipe-weilding thugs to be hanging around. As it happened, no-one was around. I left, not before letting the guy know my feelings about his style of business.

I feel pretty stupid. People who run businesses like these with a crowd of girls in a squalid little shack, certainly are a little low on moral fiber. Putting yourself behind their closed doors, will very certainly lead to no good. I'm still wondering how I managed to escape with everything. Maybe it's their system, get someone in, try to steal, if there's trouble, call the heavies. My girl, just as much a victim I guess, although complicit in the whole operation, was nonetheless cute. I guess, though I didn't ask at the time given my fury, it might have been better as a take-out rather than dine-in. Either way, I'm sticking to more up-and-up establishments from now on.

Big thank you to Pirate1 and Phantomtiger2 for their reports. Without the underlying sense of insecurity that those posts gave me, I might have lost everything. For those wondering where this place was, it was on St 63 around St 174 or 178 intersections. All I can remember is the gates to the shop were light blue.

Ok, just like Gonad and many others I have read scam reports about St. 63, but decided to go anyway today and be careful. BAD idea.

A guy at the door told me I can't go in with the camera, so I give it to my buddy along with the extra cash and go through huge metal doors. My friend waits outside. 5 girls come downstairs, I take a cutie up. She goes in the shower and in the room I put my pants with $20 on the floor where I will see them. The girl starts putting my clothes on the hooks by the door. Oh no, honey, I read ISG and know better than that!

I put them on the floor again. She asks why won't I hang them on the wall. I tell her straight up that it's becausese somebody can steal my shit this way. She goes to the "shower" (again!).

Comes back, I lock the door, I definitely lock the door and I checked whether it opens from the outside w/o a key, it doesn't. I checked whether that plywood wall had anything funny about it, but didn't find anything suspicious.

I recall she was hugging my head harder than normal, so I took the eyes off the floor. We're at it and not 1 minute goes by, I hear door shutting behind my back! I immediately jump up and my pants are gone - fucking magic! Somebody must've crawled on the floor right beside me to get them. I jump outside (and note that the button that locks the door from the inside is in the "open" position. Balls naked with a rubber on my hard-on. Nobody's there. I'm like "ok, fuck it I'm screwed, just get me my pants back, keep the money". Another girl comes up and they're both saying "after, after" and try to entice me to go back with the girl and finish the deed. I'm pissed, but calmly and firmly tell them to get me my pants back, keep the fucking money.

So finally another girl comes up and gives me my jeans, but you know what's fucking weird? THE MONEY IS STILL THERE! All $20 of it and the batteries in another pocket. We go back in the room. I was shocked, I'm like "HUH? Why didn't they take the $?", but she doesn't understand me. She tries to fuck again, but I'm too wound up, so I just leave, who knows what other scams they got up their sleeve?

So, I got 2 questions for the experts out there:

1. Why didn't they take the money?
2. If they were going to rob me from the start why did the guy tell me to not bring the camera inside?

I'm staying away from St. 63 from now on. Be safe.

Mates, Unlike me, you mates wuz lucky. Many places operate differ. Some place like Gonad Man will not letz you go easy but he lucky got out quick before reinforcements arrive to "escort" him out.
You wuz also lucky as they make you feel place honest-tell you leave things outside, but will steal what you have on. Lucky you caught them asses so no want trouble and letz you go.
Me mates wuz not as lucky. As me posted, shoulda listen to big mate Phantomtiger he the best, honest mate and prepares us all with good advice and knows the score. Me ignored his sound advice and almost paid with me life. Me still think lucky me can still write about it and not have broken hands or worst.

[quote=traffic777]ok, just like gonad and many others i have read scam reports about st. 63, but decided to go anyway today and be careful. bad idea. [/quote]i sounds to me like some people here are deluding themselves when mongering in poor countries. the girls at the st. 63 brothels are not there by choice. they have all been sold by parents or were tricked in some way or another. the place they take you is the 2nd-3rd floor with the crappy rooms. the 4th floor is where they [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord123][CodeWord123][/url]/beat the girls (i know). 6 months ago there was even a scared chinese girl who only spoke mandarin. imported from somewhere but sucks for her since she needs to know khmer or viet to get around. the khmer price is 5-8000 riel which is about 1. 25. 2. 00 to screw the girls but in pp central it may be a little more. i pay $5 but at times i've paid less since i'm viet kieu and speak the local chinese dialect as well.

as a foreigner they will make 1 attempt to swipe a wallet just because the girls only get $1-2 per fuck even if they charge you 10. in some cases the girl will get a bigger share. if they manage to take even $20 from you then that equates to 5-15 extra fucks while they know that foreigners are not repeat business and just going to leave. even if they were a repeat business, they'd have to come a couple of times a week for a couple of months. logically it makes sense to attempt a swipe. you just have to understand their mentality.

remember that you are going to there to pay 5-10 to fuck a girl in a dirty room who isn't happy about it. some of you may have even noticed that some of the girls even pout and refuse to budge while you are doing the deed?

the freelancers at least fare better.

now that being said i will advise again that cambodia is full of scams. hotel scams, tourist scams, moto scams, monger related scams, etc. always be careful and if it seems strange then avoid and be sure to assert yourself. if you look like a patsy and act like a patsy then you will be a patsy. i'm aware so i always roll my jeans and put the opposite wall from the door. none of this massage first crap either.

i will be back in june for a stopover.

You guys continue to amaze me. Curious bunch indeed. I do what I can to alert all that can happen and although you guys went anyway, at least you were aware of what the dangers are and got out before anything happened. Remember that curiousity did kill the cat. Stay safe guys and glad you are all ok.
Good or bad experiences, keep the reports cumming as I do enjoy reading all that happens there. I do admit that I miss PP , so have to read about it until my eventual return.


And Hollow Man, obviously you can show me alot more than what I could find on my own.

[/quote]hi hollow man,

there are many good points but the above quote is the most important for me. i have mongered in se asia for too many years but have always tried to avoid situations where the girl has no choice. one of the reasons for having some doubt as to whether i've achieved this is the situation at places like martini's. when the 'mamasan' arranges some girl for you who can speak only a little english is it really just an act of friendship on her part or she doing this because of some form of indenture?

i would value your input on this subject.

So now, that St. 63 is off the list, where can one find action during the daytime? Also, I'm still looking for a fs barber, anybody knows?
