Crime
Then there is the crime. I was walking along the street in a group when a motorbike came past me on my right and the passenger attempted to grab my bag. Luckily he missed; otherwise I would have lost my money and belongings, or worse, if the bag strap didn’t break, I could’ve been dragged along after them!
Theft is very common in these areas and tourists are advised to always secure their belongings when walking or riding on tut tuts.
Wow! This new caramel mixed with dark chocolate theme looks so delicious… I’m too hungry to leave a comment!

A security guard who couldn’t go one round with a blowfly…..? Ok! That does it sister! You ain’t taking another trip down Desperado Hellhound Ebola Highway without an Apache Hellfire Gunship support along with ready rooftop snipers!
Hahahaha! Just kidding. Old war general’s urge to invade and conquer… sorry.
Actually… if you ain’t been to India, then you ain’t seen nothin yet. Strangely enough… Indians do not catch and snatch in an LA robbery style like this. They have their own thieving ethics. That is “if you open yourself to be ripped off, then you shall be”. An ancient Arab ethics still used today, it is therefore implemented with rules and honor.
At first glance, India looked like a dangerous place, money spinner city for thieves, there should be fights on the streets… but none of those things ever happened. For a place that looked like Chaos, there were orders. All religions exist there without conflicts or wars. People are choice-less, so they were happy. They live without much struggling due to their caste system (I’m not approving of that). I rated that place the taste of caramel.
In a more dark chocolaty scenarios, I did assignment on Executions years ago, and found that in other countries, where theft had become far too overwhelming. They had to execute people on sight just for stealing a loaf of bread! I saw them take stolen bread off this guy’s hand, pushed him against the wall, then five shooters lined up and shot him dead while his dog was watching.
Now places like those better not be your next location for Lucy training program… or i wouldn’t talk to you or Lucy ever again.

Thanks for sharing Phra Mick. Btw, i think the confusion of my life has confused you as well. I have a few internships. One is with the Diplomacy Training Program, which is who i went with to Phnom Penh. The other is the Lucy Mentoring Program, where i met my mentor, Lee-May. My life is certainly interesting indeed!

Thanks for the Bag, also it was not a crime I took it because needed the cash for my kids to eat, and in any event I do not believe in ownership, I was merely re-aquiring what was mine but sequestered by the state division of wealth and passport systems.
