Phnom Penh - A Cambodian couple decided to circumvent the country's notoriously corrupt and expensive court system in their divorce case by dividing their house in half, literally, local media reported Thursday. The Khmer-language Koh Santepheap newspaper featured a front-page photo of a precariously perched half of the stilted former home of Meuon Rima and his ex-wife Nhang, both 40, which Rima sawed with surgical precision down the middle.
Rima, who sought a divorce on the grounds that his wife refused to nurse him during a recent illness, was last seen driving away from the village in south-eastern Prey Veng province with his half of the home, the daily reported.
It was not known where he had gone with his very detached portion, it said, adding that Rima had not felt the same need to divvy up the couple's two teenaged children, both of whom he left with Nhang.
Under Cambodian law, assets are divided equally between husband and wife in the event of a divorce.

Nope! Ah Kwak will divide the country in half. one half goes to Hanoi and the other goes to Ah Siem. Get it Ah Pler-Inside Kampuchea. Ah Oversea is better than Ah Khmer Knong Srok.

Dysfunctional Cambodian legal system force Cambodian people to take matter into their own hand!
This proves that it is very hard to live as normal people in Cambodia even under Cambodian law!
Ah stupid Yuon, do you really think that China will let have Cambodia?
What will happens is Cambodia economy will continue to grow, our military will be well equipped. And there nothing you can do about that.
So spare us your bragging and nagging.

oh my god, talk about "antong veng chhnang veng". oh well, at least the wife can always rebuild the house, although the house looks antique, an antique khmer house. welcome to the real world at large, cambodia. talk about a human's anger!
stupid cambodian!
your friend yuon!
this is one funy shit...now it gives me an idea to split my house too. Dang he's genious!!
this is a perfect cut. I'm wondering which half did he take with him. Is the half with their bedroom stay with wife or leave with him. Now that's alot of memory to treasure there! WOW this is one of the kind. This should be listed in Gunious Book of Record.
That's Hun Xen regime.
This is an example that represents the kind of people whom CPP has been able to manipulate both physically and psychologically time and time again. Recent election and those earlier ones are not of the caliber that would fit an educated and independent population/society.
This is really a result of Mr. Strongman's society that is full of deceiving, killing and intimidation. This is how he wants the people to be forever this behavior so that he can cheat them very easily.
However this is not a good image for the country to be publicised.
If I was the reporter then I would not have had this publicised.
Doggy
what's happening to half of the land? lol...
