From a journalist-friend in Hong Kong:
What does Socialism smell like?
Apparently, a bit like air freshener.
It's a beautiful and warm day here in Phnom Penh. It's my first day at the office for Digital Divide Data, the non-profit company for which I work.
The staff has been wonderful: I had a great tour of the office (which is quite large), and I had lunch with a few of the managers in which covered a number of topic ranging from American politics to the Cambodian fascination with Manchester United.
Jet-lag is starting to hit me hard. It's a bit like having a lead blanket pushing down inside my head.
Loisaida is a term derived from the Latino (and especially Puerto Rican) pronunciation of "Lower East Side", a neighborhood in Manhattan, New York City. Loisaida Avenue is now an alternate name for Avenue C in the Alphabet City neighborhood of New York City, whose population has largely been Hispanic (mainly Puerto Rican) since the late 1960s.
