Well, I called in to Poi pet land border today to pump my 60 day double entry to its second use.
I went with my Thai girlfriend (as always). Everything happened as normal. We encountered the numerous hustlers, hasslers, begging kids and 'vip visa agents'
Exited the kingdom with no problems as usual, steered our way around the 100 baht service fees at every stage. All was totally as per the norm until we got to the Cambodian passport control. Then a Cambodian police officer (bribe/service fee/border tax collector), waved my girlfriend over, and asked to see her passport. He opened it, flicked through it and thrust it back at her and said "NO THAILAND PEOPLE!!".
I thought this was strange, i don't recall reading or hearing anything of a travel ban for Thai citizens into Cambodia. Maybe I have missed something. I have been pretty busy lately, and not entirely 'in the loop'.
I know there is a lot of bad feeling about border disputes and the recent day of protest that the Cambodians held. What happened since? If they want to turn their backs on Thailand totally, then why did i see the constant (one way) stream of commercial vehicles taking 'Thai' manufactured goods and produce over the border, that helps keep Cambodia from slipping back into the stone age?
Let's face it... Where would Cambodia be without any form of relations with this Kingdom? A lot worse off me thinks. Open the border up properly and stop behaving like children. It's embarrassing almost.
