BREAKING NEWS: Gunmen Seize Foreigners in Siem Reep, The Day Before I Was Supposed to Go

Filed under: Bangkok / May-July 05 — Charles Gillespie @ 04:04:58 pm

I had already planned to take tomorrow off and head out to Siem Reep, Cambodia to view the famed 8th wonder of the world, the Angkor Temple complex. However, six men with shot-guns have siezed a foriegn kindergarden school and have murdered at least one student. It's the #1 story on Google News at the moment. See articles:

BBC

Times Online

Not only is this occuring in Cambodia, it is occuring in the very village I was planning visiting TOMORROW. Looks like I will be making other arrangements -
