Phnom Penh - A South African man was jailed pending a police investigation into a traffic accident which left four Cambodians seriously injured, police said Monday. Traffic police chief of the south-western municipality of Sihanoukville, Prum Pov, alleged Michael Con Te, 38, had been involved in a high-speed chase with another vehicle when his rented Toyota Camry slammed into a motorbike carrying four Cambodian men.

Pov said one victim's leg had been ripped off on impact, another had suffered two broken legs and two others were in a serious but stable condition in hospital.

"Police maintain the South African smelt of alcohol. We arrested him and charged him on Saturday," Pov said.

Con Te faces up to five years in prison if convicted and will be subject to hefty compensation claims regardless of how the court finds, Pov said. Under Cambodian law he may be held in prison for six months while police investigate.

Pov said few details were immediately available for Con Te, who had apparently been working in Phnom Penh, 240 kilometers away.

Drinking and driving law!

In Malaysia if the husband gets caught for drinking and driving and the wife will go to prison too!

"In Sweden, drive with blood alcohol concentration more than 0.02% (BAC) will get up 6 months in jail and if you have blood alcohol concentration of 0.10% percent off you go to jail for 2 long years.

In Kuwait, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, the people can't drink at all." You will get the rope or hanging! Ahhahahhahah!

To 7:18PM!

All of you fucken Thaicong can claim all you want but all you fucken Thaicong know too damn well that the inscription on Angkor Wat are written in Khmer Sanskrit language to prove the Khmer ownership of Angkor Wat!

It is about time that your stupid Thaicong government needs to stop teaching all the Thaicong population that everything Khmer people have belong to the Thaicong population!

By the way, the world court had proved that all of you fucken Thaicong are nothing but a fucken thief for stealing Khmer property the Phrea Vihear temple on 15th January 1962!

It doesn't pay to be a fucken Thaicong thief and beside you can get kill too! Ahahahhaha!
