1. Most people's impressions of Cambodia. People who work in Cambodia have only a few impressions of Cambodia: the level of economic development in Cambodia, the attractive girls in Cambodia, the strange food mix in Cambodia, the greedy government departments in Cambodia and the lazy Cambodians.
Because of China's attack on online gambling, some people turned their eyes to Cambodia. These people account for a large proportion of Cambodian China people. Bi Bo, Xigang and Bayu are famous vegetable towns in Cambodia, where many farmers live. There will be many problems when there are too many people, such as China people driving under the influence of alcohol, making trouble under the influence of alcohol, and rising house prices nearby, which also make Cambodia's impression of China people worse and worse.
People who come to Cambodia for holiday and tourism may not see so much if they have not lived in Cambodia for a long time but only stayed in Cambodia for a short time. Their impression of Cambodia is that there are many Vietnamese girls, Cambodia is a motorcycle empire, there are many foreigners in Cambodia, Cambodia is influenced by China, Cambodia's diet is not well equipped with natural environment, and hygiene is not enough. Security is also a more important issue.
2. Security in Cambodia Many people say that Cambodia is "chaotic" and "too unsafe", and some even say that "Cambodia is really the most unsafe country". In fact, most of the unsafe information comes from media reports or groundless, and there are not many real lives that really suffer "harm".
As a country with sustained economic growth, like many developing countries, public safety problems are inevitable. But what Bian Xiao wants to say is that there are always good people and bad people in a place, and there are also good people and bad people in Cambodia, so a small number of unruly people make many foreigners feel unsafe.
With the continuous invasion of foreign ideas in Cambodia, especially in the past decade, Cambodia has implemented a more open policy, and the invasion of popular culture is particularly serious, and many social problems have gradually emerged. This is also one of the harmful factors of social development.
In fact, it is unsafe because the local police are inefficient, and extreme corruption and inaction are also very important factors. Just keep a low profile and don't show off your foundation. Protect yourself more at ordinary times, and it's not easy for anything to happen. In fact, it feels the same everywhere, and everything can be 100% safe.
3. Cambodia Tourism Angkor Wat is an international tourist attraction and a site of the civilized world, and the total number of tourists is growing rapidly every year. Besides Angkor Wat, Cambodia has other famous scenic spots, such as Westport, Phnom Penh Grand Palace, History Museum and Sister Temple. It can be said that tourism is a great benefit to Cambodia. In recent years, more and more big cities in China have opened direct flights to Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Sihanoukville.
With the development of tourism, Cambodian hotels are particularly developed, ranging from youth hostels to five-star hotels, and the prices are relatively affordable, which brings great convenience to go on road trip and backpackers.
Hotel staff can speak some simple English, because more and more China people are doing business and traveling in Cambodia. Many people can speak a few words of Chinese in scenic spots and hotels, but it is still difficult for you to communicate with them in English and Chinese.
4. Cambodia's climate lives in Cambodia. Cambodia is really a good place for people who are afraid of the cold. There are only two seasons in a year: rainy season and dry season, and the annual average temperature is more than 20 degrees. For most able-bodied people, there is no obstacle to wearing sleeves all year round.
In the rainy season, rain comes and goes quickly. Sometimes, just after going out to Wan Li, it rains heavily soon. However, Cambodia's urban drainage system and road infrastructure are not very good, and waterlogging is easy to occur in rainy season because of heavy precipitation and rain. For example, the road from Xigang to Phnom Penh this year is impassable because of the rainy season. Dengue fever is easy to occur in many places in Southeast Asia, including Cambodia. If it is not treated in time, the adverse effects will be more serious.
5. The Cambodian currency Riel is the currency of Cambodia, but the common currency of this country is the US dollar. Shopping in Cambodia is all in US dollars, so if you want small change, you will be given it according to the ratio of 4 thousand to one, so it is more appropriate to change some scattered US dollars when you go to Cambodia. Cambodian hotels, tourist attractions and restaurants all use US dollars, while human tricycles, long-distance buses and small and medium-sized restaurants still use Riel, which will be very cost-effective.
I thought Cambodian prices were low and things were cheap, but I realized that although the speed and level of economic development were far behind that of China, prices soon learned from us. In fact, Vietnam, Cambodia's neighbor, is the same, and the price is not cheap. Cambodian paper money still has a lot of room for appreciation for relatively rare people, and it is quite fresh to give it to relatives and friends as a gift after returning home.
6. When the price of Cambodia arrived in Cambodia, I realized that most of my ideas about Cambodia were wrong. When you get to Cambodia, you will be gradually changed. It is difficult for you to judge Cambodia by special norms. Rich? In the corner of Cambodia's cities or rural areas, you find that poverty makes you miserable. Poor? Luxury cars, luxury villas, top leisure and entertainment clubs and high prices all seem to be taking an oath. This is another country that is not short of money.
Many netizens said that the price of Westport was not worse than Phnom Penh for so many years. The high price is basically caused by China people, and many China people make it in Cambodia or buy it from China. China people open restaurants, KTV, shopping malls and so on here, and the key is to rely on the surrounding China people to trade. So far, Bian Xiao doesn't understand why Cambodian prices are so high.
In many parts of Cambodia, goods are priced by locals and foreigners. Of course, there are also areas for local consumption, where prices are not so expensive.
7. Traffic in Cambodia refers to traffic, which is really hard to describe. The tourist attractions and roads in big cities are ok, and the heavier the roads in rural areas, the harder it will be to walk. At present, there are no regular expressways in all parts of the country, but it is convenient to get to all cities.
The main means of transportation for Cambodians is motorcycles. In the streets, cities and villages, most people here must have a motorcycle. Then with more and more foreigners, everyone's economic development has gradually improved over the years, so there are more and more cars here.
For example, the road in Phnom Penh was built seven or eight years ago, with narrow lanes and frequent congestion, which makes people want to cry. It's not as fast as riding a bike every time. Especially when I get off work in Phnom Penh, there is an endless stream of motorcyclists everywhere, such as the same stormy waves and the constant sound of horns.
Buying a new car in Cambodia is still quite expensive. The average price of a working-class motorcycle is more than 5000 yuan. Across the street, hundreds of thousands of luxury cars roared by, and hundreds of motorcycles with their most basic parts damaged beeped.
Motorcycles and cars are basically imported from Japan. Compared with new cars, used cars are warmly welcomed by Cambodians. Used cars such as Toyota and Lexus can often be seen in Cambodia.
Taxis are expensive in Cambodia, and buses are not more convenient. If you take a taxi, you mainly rely on tuk-tuk cars and motorcycles. When you go out in Cambodia, you often rent a tuk-tuk car and need to modify it with a motorcycle. It is also common to attract customers in scenic spots, hotel gates and some areas with large passenger flow. Tutuk-tuk is a scene in Cambodia, especially in areas with many tourists, where people are everywhere. If the price is strictly calculated, it is comparable to domestic taxis.
8. Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, is a diversified metropolis with a very high international standard. There are foreigners everywhere. They may come here for vacation or work. Because Cambodia has been colonized by France for a long time, Cambodia has left many French buildings and lifestyles, and there are countless cafes on the roadside.
Coffee shops are booming in Cambodia, and coffee shop brands from internationally renowned brands are competing to promote the sales market, and the investment attention of coffee industry projects continues to heat up.
GloriaJean from Australia, CostaCoffee from Britain, and coffee beans &; TeaLeaf and local brand BrownCafe both compete in the same field, while Starbucks, the world's largest chain coffee shop, added a game at the end of 20 15.
In addition to freshly ground coffee, baguettes are indispensable to Cambodians, and vendors who sell baguettes by car can often be seen. In addition to the remaining French customs, Cambodia also retains many Asian traditions. 90% of Cambodians believe in Buddhism, and there are a large number of stone archways in temples, which are well maintained. Compared with their humble high-rise houses, they are a far cry from each other. The temples in Angkor Wat can make you feel soft.
9. There are two kinds of Chinese in Cambodia: one is a native of China in Cambodia, but actually a foreigner. Probably two or three generations ago. It is no exaggeration to say that Cambodia's economic entities are basically in the hands of Chinese. At first, the purpose of Cambodian expatriates was for Chaoshan people. This group of China natives occupy huge network resources. Some China people have a lot of land resources in Phnom Penh, and today they have become billionaires.
The other is China people who invest and work in Cambodia. Yes, I come from China, and many people live here now. There may be 890,000 people from China in Phnom Penh at present. What are you doing living here? At the high end, the project is to invest in mineral resources and repair infrastructure. These beautiful roads and bridges in Cambodia were recently built by China people.
There are also some private enterprises in China doing real estate investment, development and design here. They are willing to spend a lot of money to develop and design real estate here or invest in real estate. Because Cambodia's tourism industry is relatively developed, people who do real estate can also make a fortune. There are also a large number of people here who are small private entrepreneurs, such as Wenzhou soup dumplings and restaurants. There are many large machinery wholesalers here, and China people are basically doing all the industries you can think of. The only difference is to make them bigger and smaller.
Although Cambodia is still developing, its overall market demand is still full of vigor and vitality. Cambodia is at the strategic fulcrum of the "Belt and Road" and has broad market prospects. The industrious, intelligent and capable people of China will benefit if they are willing to make unremitting efforts in this land. What else do you know about Cambodia?
