It was a very good read. I was wondering if you would be interested in guest blogging on my blog. It is a collection of my travels and the travels of my guests. If you scan the site you can see that now almost 100% of the posts are from guests. Lately I’ve been finding many people interested in guest posting. Included in your post will be a link to your website using whatever anchor text or key words you wish and a description of your site (if you choose to include one.) My blog (onetravel.wordpress.com) receives about 2000 visitors a day and that number is steadily growing. So if you are interested in being a guest, please let me know.

]]> Comment on Laos-Cambodia border corruption by Gavin http://trip.glogowski.ca/2009/11/laos-cambodia-border-corruption/comment-page-1/#comment-215 Gavin Tue, 20 Apr 2010 09:16:06 +0000 http://trip.glogowski.ca/?p=507#comment-215 I recently went to Cambodia for the first time via the Koh Kong border. After paying the usual corrupted fees i asked one of the many scammers how i could get to Sihanoukville. There were no buses to my ultimate destination so the only way was for me to hire a taxi for 4000 baht ( why in baht when i was in Cambodia i wondered ? i should have smelt a rat then ) I asked about a hotel and bus from Koh Kong to Sihanoukville the next day but his reply was, you guessed it 'Not Have' it was getting late and i was frustrated so i took the taxi at the discounted price of $100 US for the 4 hour trip. Two weeks later on the return trip to the border on a bus i asked Jeff who sat next to me what he paid for his taxi to Sihanoukville. He replied " i stayed in a hotel at Koh Kong for the night and caught a bus the next day for $10" , my face dropped. I recently went to Cambodia for the first time via the Koh Kong border.

This is outrageous corruption and the officials there will also refuse to accept payment in US Currency. There is also a bogus 'quarantine health check' where an official will take your temperature by means of insertion of a digital thermometer into your ear. You will then be presented with a certificate confirming you are free of H1N1 virus and be expected to pay a further 20 baht for this health check. Once again outrageous corruption which also may pose a health risk to travellers as the ear thermometer is sterilised after each use by wiping it on the officers trouser pant leg.
