They have changed some rules and you need to go to the website www.evisa.gov.kh/ If you want to stay long term you will have to come in under an "O" visa and then apply for a long term visa in about 2 weeks at just about any Travel Agency if you are not in Phnom Penh. Hope that helps !!!

Very useful info you have been providing for us. Thank you. I have been to Philippines and Indonesia countless times, and know their customs and life styles. But I never gave Cambodia any thought or consideration. Now I do after I began watching your videos. Thank you for sharing. I subscribed now and am liking your videos. Thank you again for sharing. Regards from Canada.

Curious, how do you bank in Cambodia? Their infrastructure is not that great. Did you have to setup a bank in Cambodia and fly back to U.S. to setup the banking situation? Would love to live in Southeast Asia but I am hesitant when it comes to banking. I heard stories where people had gotten locked out of their accounts because they were using their cards internationally and had to fly back to U.S. to prove their identity at a branch location.

It is easier than that. I have a Charles Schwab acct. that refunds my ATM fees monthly. I go to the ATM and take money out of that acct. and move over to the deposit ATMs and deposit it into my ABA acct. I get my money into the ABA acct. in about 1 minute. As far as US bank closing your acct. You just let them know in your banking app. tghat you will be out of the country and don't worry about charges from Cambodia. Talk to the US bank if you need help with that. Charles Schwab was informed that I will be in Cambodia and I have had no problems with them blocking my acct. It has been 2 1/2 years like that. This video has a section in it that talks about it with links to more info. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a16WZ42vYpmqf9U I hope that helps. Be sure to do your own due diligence though. Have a great day !!!!

Sir, Do you ever wonder if making videos that tell everyone how wonderful it is where you are might have a negative effect on your situation? What are you making $$$ by making these videos? A few bucks. Well you are going to need a lot more than that cause we are all coming now. From every continent in massive numbers. See you soon.

May I ask how old you are sir? I would be living off my Social Security and a small pension. In the city of Battambang. do you know much about that area in terms of cost-of-living housing availability etc.. I have a friend who lives there and it looks quite cosmopolitan. thank you

I am in my 60's. The cost of living depends on your goals, lifestyle, and comfort level. Many videos have been made about the cost of living and most will say the same, basically you control that. I don't see BB to be different than SR as far as the cost. Vanna, my Khmer girlfriend tells me that BB is a little bit cheaper than SR. SR has about 139,000 people, as to the 1.09 million in BB. I have been to Battambang about 4 times and I like it. Different things to do and see. I hope that helps. Have a great day !!

If you feel that you have found someone that's worth spending your life with, and she feels the same, that's it. Time is precious and happiness is important. Enjoy your time in this world.

So, you left the rat race, eh? Good for you! It takes great courage to leave one's birth country and move to another nation that consists of a very different culture and varying degrees of customs! Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Unfortunately, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and all of Europe is collapsing, both culturally and financially. Western civilization is collapsing, that's the bad news but the good news is that the Eastern civilization (and some regions of South America) are rising fast. China & Southeast Asia is the future and I am very happy for you that you have decided to start this new exciting chapter in your life! 👌🏻 I moved to South America and met the woman of my dreams and got married. It's been several years and we're still very happy together. However, I still have my folks and friends in America so I will have to go back every now and then, but only as a visitor because the writing is on the wall. Anyway, I look forward to seeing more of your videos! You just earned a new subscriber and friend! 😎

Wokeism has infected the West. It's killing it slowly. Powers that be play the long game. Noticed a lot of Canadians commenting here. They've been especially treated to delicious Wokeism. Meanwhile the East just laughs at us. Happy to spend my shekels in the East!
