🇰🇭| RAW OPINIONS About CAMBODIA ►What Do People REALLY Think?
What do people REALLY think of Cambodia in 2024? We talked with random foreigners on the streets of Cambodia right now. In Battambang to be percieced.

As a Cambodian, I am grateful for your random interviews to witness the reality of Cambodia, which was generally misunderstood. The interviews will surely pave ways to attract more tourists to come and reclaim the positive images of Cambodia. I have no objections that Cambodia is not 100% safe for all, not only the visitors, so do the other countries. This is a fact, but some people have held a negative view reported by some extremists

Hey hey hey Chai my man! Very very thoughtful of you to plug our restaurant BAR ANG. Dude, but most importantly thank you for your time and effort to help dispel any negative thoughts especially from those that have never even been here. We all come here and some, like myself stay, because of the people and they most certainly deserve a chance at a much better life thanks to tourism and it's trickle down effect. Good style bro. Dam you Dutch are cool. So worldly and easy going from all that we've meet at our restaurant. Thank you so much Chai and I hope our paths will cross again soon. Warmest regards from Anut and John.

I'm Cambodian 🇰🇭🫶🙏. I'm really happy when I hear you want to visit my country we love and welcome 🇰🇭💚🤗🙏💐.
After 2 years in the Philippines 🇵🇭 I just now came to Cambodia for 2 weeks. Siem Reap is a really nice place. I don’t mind the touristy places so much because they also tend to be very walkable. Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples are a bucket list trip. How ever I went to see Koh Ker Temple in the north and I think it was so much better than the Angkor Wat. Less crowded and more local people. Lyong Yong Transportation is a local driver and was awesome. A cooler full of cold water and cool towels to help with the heat. Koh Ker is a pyramid very similar to the Mayan Pyramids in the west. The Khmer people are very friendly. The food is awesome and the country is very cost effective for vacations or longer stays. I could easily live here. Overall safety is good. Just do the normal things. Keep your cross body bag close. Keep your eyes open. Keep your things secure. Safe travels 🙏🏻

I've lived in Cambodia for about 20 years and your video is pretty accurate about the country. I think the best part is the people too. I didn't hear that much about Sihanouk ville, which use to be the best place years ago to visit, but now it's meh. And most tourists prefer Kampot now, but if you're in Sihanouk ville go to Koh Rong and Koh Rong Samloem Islands. ❤

To all the tourists out there in the world, please do not listen/believe to the unreasonable negative comments and feedbacks about Cambodia when you haven't been in Cambodia even once. If you want to find out the truth, just come to Cambodia then you'll know that it's true or not. Some people are just hating Cambodia, and tryna warn the tourist not to come to Cambodia and that's such an unacceptable act. Just come here and find the real answer. Thanks Chai, you're the best. 👍🏻💗

No surprise about how people feel about good safety. That seems so common in SE Asia compared to the USA. I knew Cambodia used US currency but I didn't know that English was so widely spoken from what one of your guests said. So you are now an educational channel, 555.

Your not allowed to directly convert people in that country, some missionaries got into trouble. You can help them but not convert them and doing it in public is illegal. Almost 97 % of that country is buddhist.

I've never hated Cambodia before. Until the Cambodian people said that Thailand had stolen everything from them. Especially their culture that exists in this area, just refer to their wall. So I and all Thais responded by calling Cambodia as "Claimbodia". They don't know the word "copyright". They copy Thai people's work and claim it as their own.
