The Wild West of Asia

Are you familiar with the saying, you can’t replace Thailand with any other country due to its unique nature,people,economic activities and the entire lifestyle experienced in the country with diversity. In this topic about the wild west of Asia, I would love to share my experience in the wild west of Asia-Cambodia. Many tourist would agree with me that its either you will love Cambodia or completely hate the country, the hatred and pity may come up as the result of the poverty level, insecurity, corruption and the general safety methods on personal level. With all the negative things about Cambodia, the people are exactly the opposite of their country’s bad reputation, people here are jovial, friendly and someone I don’t care of what the world has to offer for them in this current error. 

The crime and insecurity mentioned above are not of the highest level of smuggling or stealing at gun point as in Thailand, the Cambodians are happy, respectful citizens who have not been fully infected by their counter friends in Thailand, The Cambodians scammers still nothing more than $2, here the scammers are somehow illiterate in the crime world and they don’t use force in taking, they come in a very friendly way. The small minded thieves in Thailand come smiling and joking towards a foreigner or visit but with the aim of stealing or scamming. The Cambodian people respect visitors and foreigners, they make sure they lay a strong relationship foundation with any visitor, there are lovely and this makes this country outstands other Wild west Of Asia countries like Thailand. 

According to the world economical statistics, Cambodia is valued at $100 per head as an annual income which if further divided leaves each and every Cambodian with only 50 cent a day, on an average working day a Cambodian citizen gets at least 1 dollar in a day. The currency used is the famous greenback or the local Cambodian Riel. The living standard in Cambodia is favorable and accommodative, the cheap live here makes its suitable for any visitor even though sometimes its proves boring due to its cheap nature and low economy which leaves you with all the money unspent since everything here is cheap. So if planning on visiting any Wild West of Asian Country, Cambodia is a nice place to experience culture shock, lovely women and the hospitality is great and memorable.
