    Thailand was the first SE Asian country I visited. I loved it. Then I thought it'd be cool to explore other ones and compare, see if there's an even better one for me. So far, I tried Philippines and Vietnam. It's still too early to say for sure, but I think Thailand is still winning for me.

    After spending considerable amount of time in both Thailand a d Cambodia, I agree with what you're saying about Phnom Penh. Once you get out the hustle and bustle of Phnom Penh things get much less chaotic and cheaper. I would recommend Siem Reap or Kampot

      @@mballa423 I've met plenty of foreigners working in the bars of Siem Reap (though not "legal" workers). Some of them have worked there for years. Any smaller city will have fewer schools and therefore fewer teaching opportunities. The good thing is most schools don't advertise jobs online so if you show up in person with resumes you can get a job right away with a little effort. I suggest also hanging out in the expat bars there you can find opportunities or information leading to jobs. But as in most places in SEA if you are a serious teacher and not some drunk backpacker trash you can find work anywhere.

Retirement visa here for over 50s is about 300usd for 12month multi-entry, no reporting, no funds required in bank accounts. I lived in Thailand for 15yrs, still visit every year, except for the last 2, we know why. It just suits me to travel to Thailand for 2 or 3 months whenever I want without all the hassles.

      also keeping in mind if you fly in the airport is usually a pure hell as well as there being at least a half a dozen options they have to trip you up entering, if some little detail is missing then you are stuck in an airport holding area (not free) having to figure out where can fly back to or go next. Sure, this doesn't happen to a large % of travellers obviously but it is something that must be worried about if one is going to Thailand. No thanks. In the 'good old days' flying to Thailand was totally worry free and something to look forward to. But no more. In my last days of going to Thailand I would only enter through a land border, was too afraid of getting problems at the airport.

    Announcement…
    This is the notification from ministry of health to inform that upon receiving the note from PM, the inter-ministerial committee of covid-19 decides
    1. Cancel the requirement from the travelers for certificate of negative result of Covid-19 PCR test within 72 hours before arrival to Cambodia.
    2. Cancel the requirement for rapid test upon the arrival.
    3. Allow to reopen the visa service on arrival for international travelers by airs, land and sea.
    * Even though point 1 and 2 are cancelled, travelers are advised to take the rapid test by themselves and must present the covid-19 vaccination card. In case of non vaccination of covid-19, travelers are required to be in 14 day quarantine at designated area defined by ministry of health or authority.

    Mike, that was actually news to me that Cambodia allows people to legally work online as DNs under the business visa, thanks. But do they demand taxes from that work at all?

    How about the retirement visas, a massive difference. Cambodia you only need to be over 55, $290 a year for this visa, no reporting to immigration and no bank deposit required. Thailand is a disaster for retirement visas.

    Thai n Cambodia has similar food . Thailand is more developed than Cambodia as a result they have more street food especially in Bangkok, a city of 10 millions while Phnom Penh is a city of 2.5 millions. I travel to both countries n enjoy Cambodia better because the people are more friendly n less like ly to judge you.

    Cambodia is lot less developed it’s like how Thailand was in the early 1990s so behind somewhat, Thailand has some issues lately with expats not being happy, the culture are both very similar. I would love to retire in either country but my concern is transportation in Cambodia since they don’t have an MRT it’s just hard for me I don’t like taxi or Uber in the US so not a fan of the f Tuk Tuk. Also Thailand healthcare is top notch! Cambodia definitely is working on it and was hit hard by the KR era so definitely understandable on its slower situation but hopefully in a he next decade we see more upgrades to infrastructure and etc.
    Cambodian street food scene is limited lol, also Cambodian people are terrible at marketing their food and culture overall. Unlike Thailand and Vietnam that will market chili peppers or coffee as Thai or Viet, Cambodians just call it “coffee”
