      Some of it is Chinese invested but only a certain percentage. I think up to 50% or 75%, i forgot. But some of it is also Cambodian invested but catered to Chinese tourist, hence the Chinese writings.

    I like it! I think the city is not too busy, does not have traffic jam like other Southeast Asian countries. The people also seems friendly and open toward foreigners. I think you are brave that you can just talk and eat all food without worry getting sick. You are really adventurist.

    I would say Cambodia has come a long way since the civil war was officially ended in 1998.
    The whole country and the infrastructure were destroyed from the prolonged wars.
    The country started to develope within the last 20 years from ground zero so you can't compare it to the neighboring countries.
    My first returned trip from America to search for my surviving family members was way back in 1995.
    Luckly, I was able to locate my sister who still lives in PP City. Most of my family members did not survive the horrific genocide there.
    Enjoy your trip. Peace ✌️

    I also got an overall impression about phnom penh from your video. Ken! Great job and interesting experience. Thanks for sharing with us. You can definitely see more and more China's influence in Cambodia nowadays. But Cambodia still maintains some western things, like us currency, due to its colonial history . I noticed the first tuktuk driver whom you met speaks very good English !

  • @junosaxon4370

    Yes, I went to phnom penh a few years ago on a visa run from China. I was supposed to stay just a few days but with visa complications I stayed there for just over a week and a half. I was surprised at how many people could speak English and also how friendly they were. I was also surprised at how cheap the hotel was, it was a very nice and modern hotel just next to the river. Someone suggested I stay at that hotel, if I remember correctly it was The Riverside Hotel.The street I stayed in was street 136 which has a lot of bars and nightlife, as did the other surrounding streets nearby the river. I loved the rooftop cafes/bars with a great view of the city. I loved my stay there and always want to return, this time for a real holiday. My visa problem was with the Chinese embassy but I found that getting a visa for Cambodia was so easy, I got mine in just less than 15 minutes when arriving at the airport. I have heard of people retiring there and being very happy with life there especially it being so cheap. I have thought about it, still thinking about it.

    Thank you for quick review of the Fairfield by Marriott room. I watched the property being built in the Chip Mong building. As a lifelong Marriott member and now a Bonvoy member, I do appreciate the review but I can recommend the Marriott Courtyard as a better option for about the same price. Closer to the city center and a great breakfast buffet. The Fairfield is more for business stays.
