I don't remember the full ID for this guy, but I know it's moranensis x ehlersiae. I'm really impressed with its coloration under my mediocre lighting. It's growing about 18 inches under 8 x 32W T8 bulbs, 4@4100K 2800 lumen and 4@6500K 2850 lumen. All my other pings are starting to show some color, but nothing near the show this guy's putting on. It's looking like a great candidate for windowsill growth.
 
WOW, what kinda zoom is that? Except for the GIANT perlite, the plants look almost adult. Very well done.
 
I visited cambodia a few years ago when I was little. I ran into this while playing tag and It smelled like doookie!!!!!!! it wasn't rotting either. I could be wrong, but it looks sooo similar to the plant I found.
 
dunno where cambodia is... but it could have been devils claw or somthing along the lines. its got really sticky leaves and smells rotten!

EDIT: had to use google. CPs live in just about every continent in the world and are very numerous in Asia. CPs dont really stink though...
 
It could have been a Amorphophallus. Many species live in that area and a lot of them have the corpse stink like the titan. When open they have a similar shape to the Ping in the above photo.
