Why should expats consider Cambodia over Thailand for retirement visas?

Marc Widmer I don't disagree at all, I like a lot of Cambodian food, but gotta give the edge to thailand overall. Also much easier to find ethnically diverse and amazing restaurants in Thailand than it is in Cambodia. There are some gems in Cambodia, Siem Reap is a lovely town in lovely riverside setting, Phnom Penh is truly moving in the right direction fast (but far behind BKK), Otres Beach was absolutely incredible but completed destroyed by Chinese development, the island are stunning (like Ko Rong, Ko Rong Sanloem, Ko Ta Kiev) but not as developed like Thai islands. And the future looks dodgy with the way the Chinese are destroying some island life in favour of mass development. Maybe will be fine in the long term though... Just doesn't look it right now.

Mark Clay the fact that you’re not bright enough to spell basic words tells me you shouldn’t even be on a computer

Bernard Mahon And inferior health care in Cambodia is a fair point. In fact the only reason I stay in Thailand is healthcare. Meaning not that I have health problems but that I want to stay that way and at reasonable cost with ready availability without gatekeeping. I really care not a jot that others find the sunset over Hua Hin beautiful. As best I know sunsets are available the world over!!

Paul Hadland this still doesn't warrant such ill treatment. Some of these c@nts if they said that in person would deserve a punch in the nose.

Paul Hadland it’s just a question, he’s not promoting anything.

Paul Hadland and not expect a backlash

Olli Mäklin it's got to be better than the country you described. One is more likely to disappear in a country that doesn't have strict requirements for Expats. No papers? That's convenient, no paper trail when you enter the country, so easy to just disappear without a trace! No money... ohh that's good! Oh, on second thoughts, I wouldn't have any money whatsoever when the corrupt people abduct me and force me to give up my banking details, threatening to kill me if I don't!

I know you don't I? You're one of those Scam Centre recruiters!

Not really !! all you have to show immigration is how much you have in your bank account for 3 months?? Okay I have 5 Baht ? So I get I visa? Not much security there, I’d rather have an immigration department that makes you produce relevant documents and information to stop people like you living in Thailand, be honest.

ข้าว เหนียว the Chinese moved in, bought alot if the land from locals and built dozens of high rise blocks and casinos. All expats lost inexpensive accommodation and restaurants so moved to Kampot. Check You Tube video you can see how the city changed

Terary Apellido I wouldn’t know. I’m not a sexpat. I met my Thai wife in London 20 years ago where she was working in the healthcare sector.

Olli Mäklin not everyone is smart. enough to sort out Thai visa it seems. Strange but true

Olli Mäklin because they choose to or are not properly prepared.

Olli Mäklin That people are never happy anywhere. Nothing can satisfy them in this world. I am happy in Thailand. So no plan to move to other countries yet.

Olli Mäklin and why are you on her trying to get people to Cambodia? Operating a Scam center?

Olli Mäklin every country has it's corrupt people, including the occasional business people and the occasional Politician, but it's not very common for a country's past and current Political leaders to support crime like Scam Centres and People Trafficking, as Cambodia has been exposed for in recent years. No way I would live in a country with such corrupt leadership. Maybe the Cambodian people should follow the example that Thailand finally did with Thaksin and his daughter and oust for good the corrupt leaders.

Oh and you just said it yourself... "ex-PM" of Thailand. Justice finally caught up with him. When will it catch up with the Hun family of Cambodia?
