I came to Cambodia in 2009. I have travelled a lot, but Cambodia is home to me. The most beautiful country and the nicest people. Go Cambodia. K'nyom srolang Kampuchea ❤❤

[@Nathanyork361]

As a local at one point, move to the USA, and visited there earlier this year 2023. Cambodia has come a long way and I believe we have enough tourist, modernization, unique cultural experiences for any regular tourists now. The problem is, people forget that Cambodia is still recover from civil war and some foreigner like to compare us to our neighbor Thailand. We have a unique charm compare to Thailand! And don’t forget, to visit Laos as well! SEA asia are so rich in culture and food!

Yes. If we did not have to go trough the 70' we of cause not this behind, so really cant compare us to other countries, remember we had to start from scratch after all educated people got killed. I would say no where is perfect, it's all up to you how you want to live, where you go, you need to have an awareness of your surroundings, from my bad experiences avoid going out late and being a lone at night at the quiet places, I got robbed in different country too so this my message to you out there doesn't mater where you're you should be alert.

Cambodia should return the money that Thailand has raised and helped them. In the internal war that took place The current value is 12 billion dollars. That's money Thailand lost to take care of 3 million Cambodians in 28 immigration centers for 4-8 years. The United Nations has never paid money to Thailand. Only a small amount of food was sent to help. Cambodia is the most disgusting country.

I love this video which shows the perspective of foreigner traveling and living in Cambodia. It seems they had unpleasant experience with thief, road, and obviously how Cambodia is developing rapidly and the once good place for western tourism are long gone such as Shihanouk Vile, and yet they still enjoy our food, culture, people and accept the imperfection of Cambodia. Thanks so much for this video. Once again, Cambodia may share the same culture with Thailand but it is very different in almost every ways. So don't come to Cambodia while expecting the same experience as Thailand. Edited: The old man with white hair is so funny and blunt, I like his attitude.

[@illeehm9479]

I really appreciate how you try to show a lot of good tourist spots of Cambodia. My message to all foreigners is that never trust anything as long as you never see it by your own eyes so yeah, visit Cambodia once. Actually, nowhere is the safest place; you need to be careful on your own (I feel too much pressure when I went to Paris). It is true that Cambodia media is still weak unlike the neighboring countries so we cannot spread out some true facts of Cambodia to all around the world. Some people never come to Cambodia yet they already assume what Cambodia is like from the media or anything else about the negative sides of Cambodia.

[@allow73839]

I visited Cambodia around 4 years ago. I remember enjoying how laid back and relaxed the overall atmosphere was and i was intrigued by the culture, having previously travelled to Thailand and Vietnam already and wanting to see the differences. Nice people, good weather, good flow of life. I even considered working there for a year or two, but other things planned out instead. Recommend a visit to anyone reading this.

[@Chai_Travel]

Nice one mate :) I fully agree. I can’t wait to get back 😃 cheers

[@wendylim1936]

I disagree. It was not laidback in any way. I encountered many unhelpful, ugly and rude encounters, extreme pushiness and even hostility. Not a culture for one to seek a (permanent) new life. I went there many times looking for my British husband (whom I still hope for a reunion with him) but realised the futility of even restarting a new life alone there. I hope Mark see this post and realised it was a huge mistake for us to venture to Cambodia to start a new life and that Cambodia is only suitable for a stopover.

Cambodia was my favourite South East Asian country. I've not been back since early 2018. I loved Sihanoukville and Seam Reap (esp Angkor Wat), but they've both changed a lot recently, esp Sihanoukville which I think has been totally over developed for the benefit of Chinese business men. Kamot I believe still has some of the charm it had 10+ years ago, but I guess like most places, it's changing and the high rise buildings are creeping in. Still, I'm guessing the general Cambodian hasn't changed massively, which is great as I always found Cambodians to be outwardly happy and friendly people. Hopefully I will be back in the not too distant future

Well that was close Chai, the first couple you interviewed I could see my balcony behind them 😅, enjoying your series in Kampot, top work and I agree with the coment 'authentic'. Safe travels and be carefull of USD, any tiny mark it will be rejected.

[@Chai_Travel]

Thanks Roni! Aw no way?! So close! It would be cool if we bumped into each other ✌️

Southeast Asia is visited much by Chinese, Koreans, and Western Countries. Cambodia is the most genuine as Western and East Asian 'influence' was slow to materialize compared to Thailand and Vietnam. Koreans (my connection) love Cambodia because of its genuine cultural aspects and love the people of Cambodia because they are very polite and genuine themselves.

@chai: Well done. Informative! Thank you.

[@Chai_Travel]

Glad it was helpful!

[@TheOnlyPommyman]

One of the best countries I have ever visited. I worked there for charity work and cannot wait to get back. The people, food, country and just general feel was absolutely amazing.

[@sc0rpi0n0]

Thanks guys for coming to visit Cambodia. We will look to improve.

[@dcdcpplayz1031]

I’m a cambodian I love my country and I think it’s beautiful

[@newgabe09]

There is Grab, and Passap for transport. Work beautifully for ordering transport in most towns. I've been living in a smaller town for 6 months and although the initial impression was 'what a dump' I've learned my way around and it's become a great, affordable, friendly quirky place that makes me smile every day. Including my cheap comfortable aircon room with an onsite swimming pool :) I've found people very honest about money, prices, giving change etc. and in my town I feel completely safe. Phnom Penh is way too much traffic and built up for me though.. naaah.

[@sarithgaming2599]

Thanks for tell the world about Cambodia ❤

[@robertflint2549]

I have visited Cambodia (Kampuchea) many times, most recently i 2019. Great country with truly nice people. Dark things happening politically there though over recent years.

[@skylight8090]

Hello! As a citizen here i’m very proud to call this my home. Yes, there are a lot to improve on but compared to let’s say 10 20 years ago it’s great. I’m interested in the videos that you made, if you are interested we could meet up in phnom penh and i could give u a close up insight of what we Cambodians think of cambodia’s history, culture etc. Thanks for clearing the negativity around cambodia!

[@Chai_Travel]

My pleasure 😊 thanks again

[@viches4707]

Thank you so much for your video Cambodia, yes my country have negative and positive side as every country around the world but your video make feel so bless, Thanks again.

I'm moving to Cambodia next year in October I'm so excited!

[@Chai_Travel]

Nice one :D I'm excited for you :D

[@mangsombath7535]

Thanks for the video. By the way, I'm not saying this just because I am from Cambodia, but it's so true. There are many adventures to do in Cambodia. And when it comes to safety like the last woman mentioned, there is a risk of robbery everywhere, but Cambodia is relatively safer than others.

[@newgabe09]

Completely agree. I feel very safe here as a 'vulnerable' older woman out and about

[@Chai_Travel]

Thanks for watching and 💯 agreed 😃

[@206guy5]

Cambodia is at only at the beginning of its modernization. It'll only get more modernized from here on out. However, it is still a developing country because as people know of the tragedy that happened in the 70s, 80s.

[@danykh152]

I love your videos and the tourists’ view is fair enough.

[@Chai_Travel]

Thanks! 😃 I’m glad you enjoyed them

[@NAK9614]

❤❤thank you for sharing 🇰🇭

[@adamchandler8834]

Cambodia 🇰🇭 is definitely the most beautiful country in South East Asia, people are much more honest than the Thais, food is great. Hopefully it won’t get screwed up by tourists the same way Thailand did.

[@nickytbbavornsanun4178]

My question is why you like to comparing yourself your country with Thai people or Thailand? That's how you make yourself or your country better than others?

[@KS-zu6ps]

@@nickytbbavornsanun4178 I'm French. Thai people are not humble. Cambodians are the most humble people we have ever meet. Most Europeans now recognize Cambodian people are very resilient. Blessed be Cambodian people.

[@LG-lb7sf]

@3:08 when the guy says, "it was better for the barangs", I'm pretty sure he means the French, though he does not pronounce it like we do. Barang is Khmer for the French.

[@Chai_Travel]

Thanks for the lesson 🙂

[@spicysalsaking791]

He means western foreigners in general, typically but not always white foreigners/white-majority-country foreigners. I'm also assuming he means in terms of things like wages and cost of living.

[@LG-lb7sf]

@@spicysalsaking791 "Borotheh(s)" or បរទេស in Khmer means foreigner. The term "Barang" or ជនជាតិបារាំង means French. If a non-Khmer uses Barang in the context you're suggesting, it is misused and was misinterpreted. Since it was the French that were mainly present during the pre-Khmer Rouge era, it was likely a generalized, umbrella term. However, to use more concise language, we say "borotheh(s)" for foreigner and "Barang" for French. I study language and am also Cambodian.
