      @@stevek343 sorry for the late reply. I have been in Siem Reap Cambodia on a retirement visa for eight years and never had to deal with the Cambodian government directly. Travel agencies handle all the paperwork for you. I would recommend Easy Travel based on my personal experiences. I lived in Thailand for eight years and dreaded the 90 day visa requirement which can now be done online but not always according to one friend. Thailand is very honest about their views änd their motto is good guys in and bad guys out. BUT who is good or bad can be rather arbitrary.

    I've traveled to Vietnam a few times and want to go back and see more of the country. Very diverse and the food is great. But after each trip I come back to Cambodia and breathe a sigh of relief. Cambodia is just more relaxed especially out of the big city. But I am sure there are chill places to live in Vietnam if you get out of the big cities.

    Cam "Ordinary Visa" (also called "retirement visa") can be had in 3, 6, or 12-month versions.
    Only the 6 and 12-month versions are "Multiple Entry".
    The first time you apply is more involved, and the travel agency will want you to fill in a special form, and hand over passport + 2 photos (plus the fee).
    The next time you apply, they will only need your passport (if you use the same agency).
    It takes one week, roughly, and you can have them send your passport to where you stay, with a courier (2 USD extra).

    I've lived in both Vietnam for 6 years and in Cambodia on and off for 20 years. Vietnam is great but living and working there at the end of the day just ground me down with the constant noise, pollution, heavy traffic and sheer amount of people. I was glad to leave. Cambodia is my second home. I fell in love with the place. The people are generally lovely and helpful. Phnom Penh is manageable and you can get across the city from one side to the other in an hour or two. The traffic is easy, and mostly not crazy. Its a great place to have a base. I lived with locals and rented my own apartments for many years. It's a cheap place to live that doesn't stretch your budget. I would just add that there is a dark side to Phnom Penh. Human trafficking is still prevalent, many poor Cambodians have little regard for life. There are slums, and robberies. The seedy side of Phnom Penh can be sickening and you'll see many sad people caught up in this that litter the streets. Drugs are also prevalent in PP. But having said all that it is easy to live a very fulfilling wonderful life in my favorite country ever and I for one will certainly be returning there soon to live a free life without all the BS there is in my home land England.

    Having studied some Khmer and Vietnamese, I would say the differing abilities to pronounce English are not so much because of tones per se, but of consonant clusters. More specifically, Khmer has lots and lots of consonant clusters, some of which can even be challenging for English speakers. Vietnamese has pretty much none, and that’s where Vietnamese speakers run into difficulty in pronouncing English. (The ancestor language of Vietnamese almost certainly had them, and even Vietnamese had some not too long ago, but as those went away, they tended to be replaced by tones.)
    So for speakers of a language that has words like “suesdey,” “tmeuy,” “chmaa,” “chkae,” “kchey,” etc., English words like “spine,” “cranks” etc. aren’t particularly challenging. (Consonant clusters on the ends of words are hard for both peoples though…Vietnamese will usually pronounce “best” like “bet,” while Khmer speakers will say “beh” since “s” gets pronounced “h” in final position and to heck with the “t”.
    Also final stops (p, t, k) in both languages tend to be glottalized or unreleased, so a word like “let’s” or “picks” is really hard.
    English speakers learning their languages tend to do the opposite, and pronounce funny “explosions“ at the ends of words. :-)

      @@ChrisKirtley I think there is an important difference to remember if we are comparing mainland China with Hong Kong or Singapore. In Hong Kong and Singapore, English has been there for so long that people have more or less come up with their own version of it. It goes way beyond pronunciation; they have their own expressions and grammatical quirks as well. In mainland China, which hasn't been a colony (at least not most of it), they are starting from scratch and rather than learning from locals who have a particular local type of speech, they are learning how much more "official" English.

You'd primarily lived in Ho Chi Minh City VN for 2 years, but when you discuss the differences, you say Vietnam rather than HCMC. That's akin to someone living in New York City then using that experience as indicative of the United States as a whole or say someplace like Toronto as representative of Canada. I understand you're aiming to produce meaningful content, so it would likely be more precise and genuine to say the comparison is between Ho Chi Minh City and Phnom Penh, rather than Vietnam and Cambodia.

    Based on my tourist experience of both Vietnam and Cambodia, I would agree that People in Cambodia are friendlier more open and speak better English on average.

They did not expect anyhting from me beside a friendly conversation. Nothing like that ever happened to me in Vietnam in 4 weeks. PP also felt less crowded.

    Itchy Feet, is it true that the yearly Cambodian Visa is cheaper than that of Vietnam? And remote online workers can also avail of it in Cambodia? Because in other Southeast Asian countries, they don't have that kind of yearly visa that covers remote online workers. If there is in Indonesia, it is very expensive.

    Although honestly it was just a struggle the odd time going around.
    Cambodia I can't really comment about living,
    Although the only ladies I,ve ever thought about marriage with were kmer.
    That was when I stayed Thailand and they were working in that country.
    Kmer ladies simply amazing and I love their style and nature so blissful and pleasant to be around compared to Thai, Lao, and especially Vietnamese ladies.

      Some were great although my experiences of being with a Vietnamese lady were limited.
      Compared to Thai, or Lao.
      Like I said they are mostly very gracious and generally very welcoming, I been to my friends homes and their families were absolutely amazing.
      Although honestly they were all about attitude and me being the right fit for their daughter.
      Which is admirable, but in western Society we usually are never judged or questioned on who we want to be with, look it's all about status and we probably won't be able to lt ourselves be put in that situation. Cheers

I visited Vietnam 10 years ago and I see videos of the places I visited now and I'm in awe of how fast it's developed. As the country continues to grow and the wealth gap closes, the mentality you mentioned may lessen. I hope Vietnam and Cambodia can strengthen trade and tourism with one another.

      Sadly it's true. I do not want to generalise all, but after living in VN 2 years, I felt in dates like in court and "police" asking questions like from criminal because all Viet girls ask 100% the same questions on dates and all questions are somehow related about
      1) what benefits they can get from man or
      2) money.
      Questions on first dayes like "Are you married", "What is your work" "What is your salary", "Do you want kids" and felt so much pressure: In my home country Finland the point to go dates is going to have fun activity, not talk 100% about money or work.
      We think this is nothing to do about love or natural born chemistry or real interest, but using another person: it's OK to pay everything to your woman (I know your culture), BUT... if that is the only reason to be together, that is greedyness and evil, not real natural born chemistry, caring or love, but fake love and acting and using another person.
      Anyway, I was in the end together 1,5 years with amazing Vietnamese woman and only big headahge for me was that she was talking too much about money and work, and pressured me to buy gifts all the time or said that mans value to woman is that how much man buyes gifts all the time what is insane materialism for me.
      After broke up, we are still friends and still she is talking just about money and work.
      I understand that it's important but if that is the ONLY thing in life, how poor life is that then? And if money and work is also realted 100% about love, love is just money and money is love = 100% fake world.
      Still love meny thing in Vietnam like food, nature, culture, climate, people, all, and only issue for me was too much business and thinking only about money, nothing less or more, so need also next time to check Combodia or some other relaxed place inside Vietnam: I was living just in HCMC and Vung Tau, visited also amazing Con Dao Islands, Da Lat and Phu Quoc.
      I know Da Nang is rising and many digital nomads go there right now, but only 3 months visa in pain in the ass: rumors and some news about Viet Gov is preparing 1-2 years visa to EU passport holders and some other countires, waiting for that and before that need to visit also Cambodia.

Cheap and reliable. Found the tuks tuks could be a rip off in Phnom Penh. Found a retailer that sold cheap bottles of Scotch though. I should check out Cambodia again after such a long break.

    Damn this guy was hard to watch. Some good info. Vietnam has a lot more to offer that’s on the whole. Both worth a visit but I would pick Vietnam to live over Cambodia any day!

    With cost of living I found Cambodia is one of the more expensive places to stay out of all of SE Asia
    I find its because they use the USD daily and EVERYTHING is there a quarter or rounded up to the nearest dollar.

      They use riels in the country also everywhere but maybe you encounter some people who take dollars because you're a foreigner. But I am Cambodian and I guarantee you Cambodian people are usually kind and honest. I hope I can live there when I am retired.

    Congrats on the symmetry. I get 150mbs down and 100 up with a ping of 9ms here in Thailand. How are the speeds in Cambodia?

    Thanks Ryan, you provide here some much needed perspective I haven't been able to find elsewhere. A lot of people say what they like so much about the kingdom is the Cambodian people. Keep up the good work

    NZ is is about 20/km2.The mountains & restrictions in the national parks groups must of us together. Started getting far to crowded when it was 10 people/km2.
    You can still get in a helicopter or walk for a week and stay in a nearly untouched valley with no one else there. You can drink all the fresh water you find as long as your above any farms.
    No air or light pollution out there.
    The only catch is everything costs more being a small island in the middle of the sea.

    Cambodians sometimes are too nice for their own good. Other people are taking advantage of that. They need to be money-hungry like the neighbors.

      @Gottes God We need to be in your face attitude and no mercy. Buddhism makes Cambodians soft.
