"they accept tips". When I got an immigration officer to get me a new visa without leaving the country he said no problem. it was the same cost as if I did a border run plus a $75 "VIP charge". i kept saying I didnt need any vip service and he wasn't telling me what it was and I finally realized it was the "tip' or bribe money that he was asking for.

Great information Allen…planning to go to Cambodia real soon….thank you so much 🙏💪🏼👍👍🏆

"Dating" LOL. Desperate old geezers go to Thailand and Cambodia because they can't get laid elsewhere.

Can you talk about how to get the phone over there without having the American phone system can you talk more about that or make a video about it I need to understand how would I have my phone I don't want to keep paying for the provider in the US if I'm going to be living in another country like Cambodia

is your girl cooking for you?

you are quite the dancer mate🤣, but great content bro....wishing you peace, happiness, and tons of subs. Cheers!

Dude, your eating habits could improve.

I'm going to "retire" (from The US) 4/2025 in Siem Reap (after researching all of the other SE Asian countries), and I feel Cambodia will be great for me. I spent a lot of time in The Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong when I was in The Navy, so I'm very familiar with Asian cultures. I'll be able to budget $1,500 - $2,000 monthly and still be able to save about $1,500 every month, which will boost my $250,000 of savings continuously, so I won't have any money problems. I'm 67, and I've already researched health care plans, as even though I have no heath problems, and quite fit, I'm not getting any younger, so I want to be prepared for the inevitable challenges of aging going forward, and I can get an excellent plan for about $3,600 US yearly, which is a good deal.

So to clarify; you said to get the B Visa (business visa) you don't really need to show any proof of employment?? Neither when entering, nor extending the visa?

They all look like the OP. LBH 🎉😂

Hopefully, the Healthcare System will be improving as more expats are residing in Cambodia.

Siem reap is very safe, lots of people speak English here and are very nice. Some Motorbikes are parked with ignition keys in the lock…this shows me it is a safe place.

Clean your room Allen, ya slob

I live in Austin, TX. I can’t go to any sit down restaurants and not spend about $20. I went to Applebees and it was $68 for two before tip

Thank you for this detailed look into Cambodia. Me and hubby are only going for a holiday, not to live, but it’s nice to get an idea about how much we’ll be spending for an average length holiday (4-5 weeks). Of course, I ended up wanting to live in every country I visited and I’m sure Cambodia will be no different.

Then suddenly you get hit by a car and you're dead you forgot Life is a school It's pass or fail what did you do?

Maybe it’s because I travel solo most of the time in Japan, I always get genuine curiosity from restaurants staff and customers or sometimes port staff asking about where I’m from and why I visit Japan. They are introvert on the street, but especially in remote areas Japanese people in izakaya are quiet open to conversations.

I'm mystified as to where you were looking, because there are no shortages of non-Japanese dining options in Japan, even in smaller cities. Want authentic Neapolitan pizza? Just a few examples: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2m1eKCLicuIqNU The same with French, Indian or burger restaurants. And ffs, Chinese food...? Dude the largest Chinatown in Asia is in Japan: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqTbpX2LfbWSpMU Just as an indication, why is Japan a way more Michelin-starred country than Cambodia or Thailand or Malaysia or Indonesia, or in fact the whole of SEA combined (including the best of them Singapore), by a huge margin? They don't go to hundreds of restaurants with non-local cuisines in all kinds of price brackets for nothing... You failed at basic research.

The difference between being a developed country or not aside, the races and cultures themselves are entirely different. East Asia and Southeast Asia are completely different races. It's like asking why Northern Europeans and Turks are different.

The deer 🦌 animals life in very beautiful 🇯🇵Japan. Very ironic downtown Minneapolis mn. There's two or three large deer🦌living in the only cemetery lot on lake street!! Some people actually feed these very impressive beautiful 😍 made looking animals. Love 💘 the animals lifestyle ❤ all over the entire 🌎 world!! My great inspiring message for today!! Have a very impressive beautiful 🎃😍❤ day.🎃😍❤

That's a developed country for you. Ofc it will be different than most asian countries.

TLDR: White people see Asia as homogeneous as Asian people see Europe+US

Great documentary. Hello from Türkiye.

I haven't been to every Asian nation but of the ones I've lived in, visited or worked in etc I might generalize something like this: - Japan, which I definitley love the most (but hey, that's subjective I suppose) but Japan is the more modern one. Modern, I don't mean LED lights and 'the future' I mean they have reliable schedules, very clean living standards, real hospitals like 1st world countries and they don't cut in queues, jabber with a mouthful of food and there is this kind of toilet that I plan to marry one day. - Only did a layover in Korea and all I know is those islands we flew over were possibly the most beautiful natural things Ive ever seen. Archipeligos.. dont even know what they're called, 'rock islands'?? - Mainland China is the most obnoxious and most difficult with the worst manners BUT Chinese are more loose and friendly (not welcoming but friendly) and if you can tolerate them smashing food with their mouths open, smacking noises, shouting into their phones beside you on a train, rubbing dirty feet anywhere they like, obsessively cutting in front of people it is, at least, fun, wacky, weird even if you better watch out for falling objects, sinkholes, and deep 'cha bu duo culture' (like 'half-assed, this packing tape is good enough to fix this gas leak culture). - Vietnam is almost like Chinese mainlanders but totally JACKED on 10 cups of salted coffee and who's imperative is to gets up at 6am and relentlessly hustle and grind your face off. got money, give me some, here let me take your money but they are also weirdly arrogant and seriously don't do your 'johnny somali prank videos' in Vietnam. Do NOT do that, they WILL instantly stab you to death, they are fighty people. Weirdly, better infrastructure than China but far more garbage all over the places, just the worst garbage streets, dirty and they also think 'safety standards' are worthless. What I LOVE about the Vietnamese? I go there for a month every 2 years. The FIRST time I returned (so, my 2nd visit two years later) and literally the lady who once gave me a ride pulls over and waves at me, calls me by name, remembers she drove me to some store 2 years ago. The massage lady spots me in a crowd of 1000 tourists and makes me come over for spring rolls and tells everyone how my back was so bad and she always thinks about me and hopes I feel better. Vietnamese are outstanding for the shockingly keenest sense of humor I've ever seen in Asia. They would watch Norm MacDonald videos and TOTALLY get it and find it hilarious, they like obscure smart humor, they get irony, sarcasm, etc. - Laos is part of the SE Asian Asian world and are related to Thais and Cambodians in that sense of squiggly writting and probably whatever the Siam/Khmer world was. Loa people are the cutest people of all of SE Asia. Adortable, conservative, funny, almost 'child-like' in a good way but the average IQ might be 78 and IF they were not entirely funded and existing by UN donations and 100 other nations, NGOS and whatnot they'd instantly be in loincloths selling bananas. This is where a 'welfare' society goes and they only understand holding out their hand for the money. Also one of the dirtiest places I've been. Just garbage and filthy sidewalks, filthy streams and they also like blasting music at 10000 so they can make their children partially deaf. - Cambodia might be the next big rising start imo. They build solid modern infrastructure now, they don't slap up 'tofu dreg', they are trying to eliimate things like spitting and urinating in streets, they are bringing in all modern 1st world things but in a reasonable slow and steady pace. If anything, they're being TOO careful and cautious and could actually help themselves by loosening up a bit and put a little freewheeling into things. Sorry Allen, I didn't intend to write a video's worth of comparisons but somehow i just got into a long rant about it. but to agree: Oh no, Japan is definitely NOT Southeast Asia. You could nearly do a whole video on why Japan is the 'Opposite' of SE Asia.

yes

You dont understand how the central bank works. ;) i LOVED cambodia.

Hi brother Amazing video but you didn't talk about taxes, If I do Job in Cambodia how much tax to be paid and is it monthly or annually to be paid and Is there any way to pay no tax or less tax, this is important to know bro thankyu

I really appreciate including a category for your cat. That's very, very important to me. I can't live without my cats and other videos NEVER include that.

They are weeding out European nationals, particularly French, of sub Saharan origin due to the rampant investment partnership fraud perpetrated by said group.

Visa run. Watch out for the scam artists at land crossings.

Step 3 is important. LOL thanks for sharing.

living the life, Allen. enjoy. hahaha. I miss cambodia.

What keeps the meat from going bad?

I have a Khmer fiancé and I couldn’t be happier .

What is your recommendation for family visas?

BS ...

im calling b.s. you're either a trust fund bby, won some legal lawsuit and got a decent settlement, a parent passed away and left you with a sizeable inheritance, and/or collect a monthly disability check. you're a poser masquerading as something he's not. btw, i am in Siem Reap. so...we can meet in person and you can prove me totally wrong.

Enjoyed the video! I would like to see a walk along the river (or things to do along the river) that is in proximity to the Old Market and Pub Street part of Siem Reap. Thanks!

Not only cheap there but fresh . I love shopping at the local markets

I have never felt unsafe in Cambodia and i will soon be bavk

What about income tax? Does Cambodia tax worldwide income, interest, dividends, pensions, or social security?

I was visiting Siem Reap earlier this year and I volunteered with an NGO that builds homes for families in rural areas. It was a wonderful experience to spend a week outside of the tourist zone meeting the locals in a non-commercial setting. The crocodile is also consumed as a delicacy in Cambodia. The skin is not it's only valuable commodity. It's meat is considered to have medicinal qualities.

You just have money you can live in Cambodia just don't do crime

healthcare in cambodia is cheap,but definetly not low quality,much better sevice than anything avilable on the nhs in the u.k

2 pints of beer in a crappy weatherspoons pub in london 12 pounds about 14 dollars absolute joke,thats why the pubs are closing down in the u.k

Sit on your hands.
