    As a Cambodian American. I finally got my Khmer citizenship and Khmer passport. And I just recently bought a nice chunk of land in Siem reap to build a nice gated house with an elevator unit.

      How big is the land and how much did it cost you?

    • @mezzanine3362
      @mezzanine3362 26 дней назад

      you can buy for around 10$ per sqm not far from the beach (maybe 15min) but you need to have patience to find that good deal. Many people selling now very cheap. But some ask way too much for sure. Of course you can buy also for less than 5k a ricefield plot of maybe 2000 sqm but it will be in the countryside and not connected to any road. Of course a land which is directly at a concrete road will be way more pricy even its in a rural area. Starting around 25$ probably to 500$ (per sqm!) if its near tourist spots like Siem Reap...

    It’s very interesting to see the two guests talk about living in America and outside of it. Seeing the woman say she wanted to move to America was sad for me, because I am a poor person living here and I have no real opportunity because of my family’s generational poverty. I have made something of myself with what I had at a young age and even now, it is not enough for the things I value. For some, the things America offers are more valuable than their home. I wish her the best in her goals.

      Thyda has never been to EU nor US, so she thinks the people in these countries living in paradis, it is just a false good impression. I confirm to live there now is completely difficult because of inflation on all thing. But send the children to have education on health, science, business ,,,ect. is a good idea and come back to develop Cambodia is really good. US, EU has a big problem of security and Cambodia is anyway safer than these countries.

    I'm half khmer but I'm surprised he got to live in cambodia that early on. Especially when pol pot was still alive? Technically the civil war did not end until he was dead. My english dad came to cambodia for work at an oil rig, but he told me it was quite dangerous in the late 90s still. He wanted to visit siem reap as he heard there were a few amazing temples there, but he wasn't allowed to go by normal means. He had to take a plane because any other way like a boat would end up with him being attacked by rogues. Basically sounds like myanmar tbh

I think the Dutch government is definitely not perfect but it’s pretty well said if I say that the Dutch government is having several build in systems to help people who are jobless, homeless, and are in debts.

      Cambodia being a lessor economy than Vietnam, Thailand, why is it more expensive in Cambodia? (Genuine question) could it be the unfettered use of the US dollar or the rampant corruption that raises the cost of doing business in Cambodia?
