Tale of two railway systems
Bullet train in Japan: "Made in Dream"
Bullet train's interior
Bamboo train in Cambodia: Made in the glorious reign of "Samdach Decho"
Bamboo train's interior...well, it's the same as the train's exterior, but fully air-conditioned...
Circa 2013

HAHAH. AH Kwak Hanoi rule of reign. Even the Youn looks down on this disabled man.
To all military police and all armed forces, you must support and protect the protesters, because for you, for your kids and for your grand kids future most important for your country.
Don’t believe this dictator Hun Sen. All he cares only his families he don’t care for Cambodian people at all.
The truth is CNRP is the winner this election not CPP.
I am urgings all Cambodians must protests around the country, must take this actions.
Around the whole world they eliminate the Dictator leadership like Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Philippine and much more in Europe.
Dictator Hun Sen must go, stay in power for 28 years is too long.
Cambodian people this day are so poor.
To be honest, I like the Bamboo train. If it happens to crash it is a lot safer! The scenery is less blurry compare to bullet train. And beside, the Japanese people will likely die off because of the radioactivity from Fukushami disaster. Do you think that the experts got the leakage under control and people need not fear? The whole Ocean could be polluted from the leakage because they are at their wits end of how to contain the leakage. I would be slow to jump into the ocean in Sihanoukville beaches. Whales and dolphins are reported dying here and there, could they be poison from nuclear radiation?
New World Disorder Malady
We cannot afford another 5 years of stupidity. Change is absolutely vital at this point.
After 34 years and foreign aid more than $ 650-800 millions every year under Chek Cho Hun Sen, the Kingdom of the Water Xmer is more developed in compare to the Pol Pot, Killing Fields. What Khmer want more?
6:58 AM IF YOU ARE HAPPY TO LIVE IN TRASH CAN THAT'S NOT A PROBLEM.

6:42 AM,
You'll be eradicated from this world soon by diligent scientists who care about mankind.
Go and join the others diseases and don't ever come back to pollute this forum.
hahahaha sondech arch ko kro baiy who stole kingta dynasty and wanting to reign for themselves ahahaha ah arch ko kro baiy oiy go back to where you came from, ok. hahaha the whole world is laughing like crazy.
These people have no shame, no conscience and no feeling whatsoever. hahaha in fact, no outsiders would want us to grow but to continue to fall apart like that, yet, a hun and dynasty is so blind and still continuing to rule to ruin for their neighbouring countries without having to go to war between them. What a dumb Hun Shit is! hahaha
These Hun Sen people are so ignorant, I cannot believe how they have stayed in power this long. Most of the Yuons I have met are dumb as hell, too...
Khmers are better than this, believe it. You have the genetics to be better. Don't fear them.
Don't even need to respect them, either unless they show you the respect back. The f*cking Yuons are nothing more than a parasite.
Those Vietnamese/Yuon suspects like Mike, Sith Phila, PA, and other Vietnamese suspects on KI-Media have been barking too much to protect their stolen properties in Cambodia, illegal business trades (Vietnamese/Yuon business styles) between Communist Vietnam/Yuon and USA and around the world, and those criminals and crooks like Those Vietnamese/Yuon dog eaters robbed and ripped off the hard working Cambodian people, Laotians, Montagnards, Hmong, and Khmer Krom people plus innocent ethnics in Communist Vietnam.
That is how they barked on KI-Media to make sure Vietnamese Installed PM Hun Sen and CPP to stay power and Those Vietnamese/Yuon suspects can consume the illegal business trades around the world by robbing, stealing, cheating and beyond.
Khmer Yeurng
8:37 AM,
Cambodian people are NOT lazy, but Yuon/Vietnamese CPP crooks and yourself are lazy. You and Yuon CPP crooks are making a living by robbing and stealing innocent Cambodian people's properties and lands or even natural resources.
Just think about it when you said that.
Correction for 8:50 AM
8:37 AM,
Cambodian people are NOT lazy, but they are just the victims under the CPP regime controlled by your Yuon/Vietnamese masters in Hanoi and Vietnamese installed Prime Minister Hun Sen along with Vietnamese crooks and thieves.
Yuon/Vietnamese CPP crooks and yourself are lazy. You and Yuon CPP crooks are making a living by robbing and stealing innocent Cambodian people's properties and lands or even natural resources.
Just think about it when you said that.
Khmer Yeurng
One Khmer to one Yuon. If one Khmer can "eliminate" one Yuon, our country will be ok. Just to motivate them to leave our country.
6:58AM
KHMER WANT HUN SEN STEP DOWN
HUN SEN AND YOUN KILLING KHMER
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
The real reason ah Mike, ah sith PA are here is because Cambodian didn't ship enough RATs for them to eat. the best EXPORT to Youn right now from Cambodia is RAT. Now you know they those two talk like rat, nonstop about the same thing over and over.
What you guys have done for your country? Besides accusing others, what can you do?
4:11 PM I DONATED MONEY TO THE POOR AND STOP STEALING IT FROM THE POOR YOU BASTARD.
"You'll be eradicated from this world soon by diligent scientists who care about mankind.

Ha Ha - Keep on wishing, you could get radiation from the nuclear fall out. Thanks to your diligent scientists. The world is a much safer place with nuclear weapons and poison chemicals all around us. Wise up and learn from my New World Disorder Malaise.

In case of accident, who dies more???

After Much Hype, Elon Musk Unveils His High-Speed 'Hyperloop'
Bloomberg — the founder of Tesla, SpaceX and Paypal — to explain his vision for a high-speed mass transit vehicle that could deliver you from Los Angeles to San Francisco in an astonishing 30 minutes. Musk explained that the Hyperloop pods would leave every 30 seconds and would run inside "low pressure" tubes. Bloomberg continues:
"Inside the tubes, the pods would be mounted on thin skis made out of inconel, a trusted alloy of SpaceX that can withstand high pressure and heat. Air gets pumped through little holes in the skis to make an air cushion, Musk says. The front of the pod would have a pair of air jet inlets—sort of . An electric turbo compressor would compress the air from the nose and route it to the skis and to the cabin. Magnets on the skis, plus an electromagnetic pulse, would give the pod its initial thrust; reboosting motors along the route would keep the pod moving. And: no sonic boom. With warm air inside the tubes and high tailwinds, the pods could travel at high speeds without crossing the sound barrier. 'The pod can go just below the speed of sound relative to the air,' Musk says."
Shortly after the Bloomberg release, Musk published his (pdf) on the project. We're sifting through it and will also listen to the news conference. We'll bring you more once we understand it.
Update at 5:28 p.m. ET. Solar And $6 Billion:
During a conference call with reporters, Musk said he expects a project linking L.A. and San Francisco would cost about $6 billion, a fraction of the estimated $70 billion the state believes it would cost to build a high-speed train. What's more, Musk said that he could have a working model in three to four years.
"I would like to see it come to fruition and I think it might help if I do a demonstration [model]," Musk said, still emphasizing that this project is a "low priority" for him.
The Hyperloop, said Musk, would be powered by solar energy, run on an elevated platform that could resist earthquakes and because it's not on rails, it would not derail. Musk said he designed it to be powered by the motors already used in Musk's electric vehicles.
Riding the Hyperloop "would feel a lot like riding in an airplane," said Musk. You would feel an initial acceleration but once it reaches 800 mph, you won't feel much of anything. Note that while at sea level, the speed of sound is 761 mph, this thing would be traveling in an environment with lower pressure, so 800 mph would be just subsonic.
It's worth noting that Bloomberg spoke to Martin Simon, a professor of physics at UCLA, who said this idea was feasible from a technological stand-point.
"Simon points out that the acceleration methods proposed by Musk are used at amusement parks to get a roller coaster going," Bloomberg reports. "Other companies have looked at these techniques for passenger and freight vehicles. What sets the Hyperloop apart, though, is the use of the air cushion to levitate the pods. 'He has separated the air cushion and the linear induction drive, and that seems new,' Simon says, adding, 'It would be cool if they had transparent tubes.'"
Our Original Post Continues:
Imagine making the 380-mile trip from San Francisco to Los Angeles in about half an hour.
That's the kind of thing Elon Musk, founder of Tesla and SpaceX, says his "hyperloop" can do.
Now, what is hyperloop? From what we know, it's basically a vehicle that travels faster than the speed of sound inside a tube. John Gardi, a Canadian tinkerer , says it's like the pneumatic tubes used in banks to move your deposits around the building.
What we know for sure is that Musk will reveal the first draft of his idea this afternoon.
he talked about the idea last week during a Google Hangout with Richard Branson.
Musk said he was frustrated by how slow and expensive California's high-speed rail project would be:
"Mr. Musk claims Hyperloop would be a practical solution for city pairs separated by 1,000 miles (1,600 km) or less. Beyond this distance, it would be better to take a plane, he explained.
"But for the shorter distance, his new concept would beat the plane, he argues, because it would not waste time ascending and descending.
" 'It does involve a tube but not a vacuum tube ... not frictionless but very low friction,' is all he will add."
As many media outlets are reporting, there hasn't been this much hype for a new technological advancement since the Segway was unveiled in 2001.
But the BBC spoke to physicist Martin Archer from Imperial College in Britain. He said if anyone could pull off a grand and crazy idea, it's Musk.
Remember, he made electric vehicles fast and profitable, and

his company is the first commercial firm to dock with the International Space Station. Musk, however, says he's too busy to build this project himself ... at least for now.
We will of course follow up once the design is released at 4:30 p.m. ET. and we'll also listen to a conference call scheduled for 5 p.m. ET.
