MY FIRST TIME in Phnom Penh 🇰🇭 Asia's Next HOT SPOT (Cambodia) 

That flag is an international Buddhist flag. Our country's motto is Nation, religion, and king. So you see that three kinds of flags. One is for Nation, one is for religious, another one is king

Cambodia has one of the best resilient local smile.

I found that their cars are very long and it doesn’t look like a poor country! In fact, it is very common in Asia for the same store to be on the same street! Geographical location is also a type of advertising. When people are accustomed to going to that street to buy medicines, pharmacies opened in other places may be eliminated! I didn’t know you loved drinking beer so much, and I want to remind you that drinking too much beer is bad for your health! Thanks a lot for sharing such a wonderful video, really great job! 👍😍🙏

I’m Cambodian living in Melbourne Australia. Honestly im more scared of getting stabbed in Melbourne than in Phnom Penh.

14:36 The blue flag represents the Royal standard, while the multicolored one symbolizes Buddhism. And yes, you're correct; the last one is the Cambodian National flag. This reflects Cambodia's motto: "Nation, religion, and King."

Please enjoy your traveling in Cambodia 🇰🇭

Phnom Penh is generally safe, but you have to mindful just like everywhere around the world.

It's so wild to see it so developed. I was there in 2003 and there were very few paved roads. I stayed in the Embassy area and it was all dirt roads. I don't think there were any high rises (if there were, it was just a few). The countries first escalator went in to operation the week I was there... Anyway, it's a great country, with wonderful people. I hope to go back one day.

they're renovating Phnom Penh in 2025 and adding pedestrian friendly sidewalks and attractions on this strip according to PP post

Absolutely love Cambodia especially Siam Reap.

I just got to Phnom Penh 2 days ago and I’m here just watching your videos instead of going out do what you do haha

I am from germany i always watch your videos because of japan but i must say cambodia looks super nice. I really like your videos

I've visited Phnom Penh in 2007 and again last year. The differences are immense! Much cleaner, far more developed and seemingly safer. Traffic is just as crazy though. Back then there was just one mall and getting around involved motorcycle taxis paid in USD

Cambodia so cool and people here are smiling.i love people in Cambodia😍

Phnom penh is going to have their own pub street scheduled to be completed by end of 2024.

Beautiful clean streets, alot of Restaurants and Bars

I'm going to Cambodia soon for a summer service trip, thank you for your video!

dont worry in Phnom Phen its a super safe city

Hi Zane. Welcome to Cambodian , Enjoy

Thank you so much to visit our country and welcome to cambodia 🇰🇭, I been watching your videos just two videos of your, but now I’am your fan right away 🇰🇭😝❤️

Was there 4 weeks ago, LOVED IT!

Loving the content, very good work and quality

Thank you welcome to Cambodia 🇰🇭 ❤

I think the reason they have many pharmacies next to each other or close to one another cuz that’s how Asian does their businesses having one same kind of product in one spot just easy for customers to shop for

Thank for review Cambodia 🇰🇭. We love you so much

Yea man loving your videos. One thing I see on your walks is Toyota is king in Cambodia. They are everywhere!

Cambodia is slowly catching up and I see many patriotic Cambodians assisting in the development of their country, although not as much as during the sangkum rear niyom period, it’s good nonetheless. Cambodia just needs a strong leader who will motivate the nation.

People snatching phones, bags and other stuffs was way back awhile. I don’t think they still exist cuz I’ve been there many times in past years and it pretty safe. No big crime is known for in Cambodia, I love Cambodia cuz less populations than its neighboring countries. More room to roam around and better services. People are down to earth, well accommodating tourists to their best. Love it.

Thanks for your visiting Cambodia.

By I think Cambodia is not very poor if compared to LDC countries. The government wants to delay this period to get the advantages from EBA & GSP that the developed countries help the poor countries . They do this by not taking taxes too much from people so the state income is still low but people incomes not too low. The taxes in Cambodia from people not much as some countries, the main taxes are from big companies.

Thanks for come to our country ❤️❤️

If you still in Cambodia, I suggest you to take a tour to Toul Sleng prison museum, Churng Ek museum, Royal palace, trying boat tour, and try the Khmer traditional food.

You should've been on one of those boat. Those are sunset cruises. It's $5, and by the look of your video, the sunset would've been amazing

Plz do full “wat bottom” park and “river side” walk tour, I’ll enjoy watching it. And it’ll be nicer if you can do night boat and enjoy yourself with some beers🍻

I strongly recommend you to go to Koh Rong island. It's one of the paradise islands in Sihanoukville of Cambodia. The beaches with white sand and blue crystal clear water make the island the most attractive place on earth.

Quay is pronounced key (it's an English word, not Cambodian). It's a structure alongside which boats and ships dock for loading/unloading.

Approximately 3-4 million Cambodians live in Thailand and between 4-5 million live in southern Vietnam.

It is great experience if you try the food and natural of Kompot or Battambang province, amazing beach, food, people and the old architecture buildings,

Great Video ! Bust place and crossing the streets takes talent :) Good Job !

Thanks for coming 🙏

Remember Cambodia have been through some dark periods (genocide). Cambodia will be the talk of SEA in 10 years or less. One thing Cambodia have and neighbor countries don’t have is Angkor Wat and friendliest people. Also the foods is as good if not better than others countries just the world didn’t know yet. Where can you find $.50 beers

Have a great day in Cambodia ❤, new friend

Mate 👍 good to see you up and about

Thank sir for visiting hopefully that you will be back soon

Enjoy your vacation in Cambodia Sir ❤

Go to Bassac Lane at night. Especially on Friday and Saturday. It’s like a mini pub street in Phnom Penh. Riverside at night is full of Girly bars if that’s your thing.

Welcome to Phnom Penh

Cambodia is projected to graduate from least developed country status by 2027. In the next 3 years, Cambodia is no longer a poor country. Surprisingly, it is expected to become upper middle-income country by 2030 and high income status by 2050.

31:25 this is called Pharmacy block usually present near a big market. This block is near Central market, and you can find an even bigger pharma block near Olympic market. They're considered hubs of a wide variety of drugs you can't find in provinces. In the past, people who needs rare and brand name drugs have to travel all the way to buy from here, but now they can order online too and be delivered.

Welcome to Cambodia!!

Love your videos 😊😊 Zane keep it up

Being Cambodian American, i find it smart to capitalize on foreign tourist and the fact that 2million foreigners are moving in is going to start an economic golden age. Although the recover was a slow start after the Khmer rouge, you have to understand that moderization is starting with higher tech/architecture. Meaning in the next 20-40 years the melting pot era will happen then it will start another golden age. The only down side is, more foreign aid and defense will have to be in to stop encroaching china. I'm Khmer Chun, meaning Chinese cambodian. Grampa was full cambodian but my grandmother was adopted and she was full Chinese. Having a degree in business.. studying economics etc... that's what I see. milton friedman insight would be so valuable here, but I feel a hong kong type of economic boom coming in. IF my people can get some horticulture development around the aqueducts for more rice mass production and ag education over time. I think the OG's in the outskirts of Cambodia can also thrive economically. That GI that aids the the Cambodian victims that impaired limbs/handicap who teaches them how to create produce silk to live/strive/thrive should also be funded for a bigger company to aid the displace. This is video was only 3 months ago. I'm impress how fast Cambodia modernize, more legal stuff should come into regulation a bit, just incase the growth is too rapid... don't want implosion. A program to bring in the first generation cambodians who has degrees should also be implemented by the government. There are many of us who survived because our parents survived the Khmer rouge. We spread so far in the world. imagine the perspective we have that can aid Cambodia. Schooling from around the world. NZ, Australia, United states, France, Canada and every where else. Our seeds was spread across the world.... In history there are not a lot of other culture ethnic group of people that spread around the world like that. So despite the darkness our people have suffered this was the outcome of our people... The brightest day normally come from the darkest storm. Have pride my people, learn to love yourself. Even if you are not cambodian you are still our people. Under the stars we are no different.

Really enjoyed it thanks ❤

That first flag is the International Buddhist flag! It was originally designed in 1885 in Sri Lanka. It is flown in Buddhist temples throughout the world!

You should have kept on walking on Riverside. You'd have come to a great night market. Check it out tomorrow

You should visit Koh Pich and EuroPark in PP

Enjoy my birth country Zane! Howdy from Texas.

Thank you 🙏 I miss Cambodia.

Answering the pharmacy question: In Cambodia we have a culture which if someone starts a business then more people will start the same business in the same area so people would know where to go get “ something they want“ for example , the place you filmed at is called Phsa Tapang so whenever people needs to buy pills they would know which area to go because Phsa tapang is known for having a lot of pharmacies.

$20 for a good burger and one cocktail is even more expensive then Malaysia in KL.

Made me want to ditch Bangkok and go to Cambodia again this December. I miss the country.

That Flag is universal budhhist Flag... You must know ❤... Enjoy beutiful budhhist country ❣️😊

In Phnom Penh we have Bassac lane it’s similar pub street

Looks a lot cleaner than i thought it would be

How did you get from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh and how long did it take?

Good video but I'm definitely not going to go to Cambodia so I can have a $16 burger. I could pay that same price here in the U.S. You know you can get burgers for less than $4 there in Cambodia right???

As a Cambodian-Korean, I heard so many people are moving to Cambodia right now, 2024 Include American and Canadian, They try to get a house and live there forever 🤣 because everything is cheap - cheap cheap

Cambodia is the country. Khmer is the language and people ,we have own khmer alphabet and number. Cambodia have reached her prosperity during khmer empire which was from 802 to 1430AD. Angkor wat tample is the capital city during that time and her territory cover most of Laos and south vietnam and thailand nowaday.

Hello! Zane ! New Subs. watching from Cali, enjoyed your stay , Cambodia it’s very safe country and locals Khmers are happy as always and very loyal people half of my family from America are moving back ! Thank you for visiting the Land of Wonders . Please don’t forget to visits The Ancient Khmer Temple as Angkor Wat and thousands more ruins for extre time visit Koh Rong Islanf it’s white sandy beaches they sells grills seafoods at a very affordable prices . I’m moving back as for my earlier retirement 🥰👍😅🙏💜

I’ve lived /worked in South Korea , Japan, and Hong Kong… to my eyes I would say I agree with calling Cambodia LDC, but it is “developing” and trying . It’s on the right path…but still has decades to go

The flag is the Buddhist flag in Cambodia. Cambodia is very safe. For Cambodia things tend stay in a bunch so you know where to get for things you need. For example, if you need medicine, you go to the place with a bunch of pharmacies. If one place doesn't have what you need you jump to the next one and the same for everything else.

pls come to sihanouk ville pls zane in cambdia has a beach beautiful Koh rong more and more

14:30 its a buddhist flag

24:39 "food was really good and it cost $20." $20 for a hamburger? That's outrageous. That cost more than the hotel stay.

Recommendation, while you are in Phnom Penh try to visit Paris in the European park.

Take Care when you at the Phnom Penh Ok be pay attention with your Camera or properties anything 😊❤❤️️🙏🇰🇭 ❤️️

The flag that you’re wondering? It’s a region flag

Yes.. Laos it's hard to be developing, the roads are still the same for many years, a lot of poor people.

It's very common in Asia to have multiple businesses of the same sort in near proximity. There are entire blocks here that sell just car/boat motors, pharmacies (as you noted), phones, computers and most other things. I'm not sure exactly why they do this, but from a consumer standpoint it's good as they will all have competitive prices.

it’s the most populated city that you are in. Phnom Penh, where the malls and shops are almost everywhere and it may look develop, but It’s not really the same story in the countryside so yeah, it has been a little more developed overall, but not everywhere imho

May I get some info from you. Which are the best hotels in Cambodia main city and is there any shopping markets and malls nearby the hotels?

Great city. Can't wait to get back.

Wow.. the customer service is above and beyond. They are so kind and friendly.

I’m considering to visit Cambodia myself! I wonder what app did you use to get a cab/tuktuk the very first minute of your video. Is it Grab or what kind of apps do locals use for ride-hailing?

Hello this is the first time I've come across your channel. When you were there did you visit the Tuol Sleng Museum? I know this is not for the faint hearted yet it's right that Cambodia remembers its tragic past as a reminder to the rest of the world that this can happen if evil is allowed to prevail.

Zane, about the pharmacies: From the beginning, one pharmacy at that place had more med. available and attracted many customers. Seeing good opportunity, more pharmacy opened one after another just like any other businesses, nothing out or ordinary in Asia. PS: no prescription needed to get med. in Cambodia. Welcome to Cambodia. Just maintain your "open mind", learn a few Khmer words, you will feel good anywhere you go, and, you might not want to leave.

Did you visit Paris and many other European cities in Phnom Penh yet?

That’s Soriya mall, it is an old mall and it’s like a legendary mall to our Cambodian 😅 the first modern mall yeah…but now there are many way more modern and big mall like eon mall, chimong mall, fun mall k-mall everywhere. Check out basac land, it’s like pubstreet in Siem Reap

Approximately 17 million people in Cambodia

Free hotel is awesome! Courtyard by Marriot is great! Working in the hospitality industry I get to stay at all types of hotels and that hotel has suite style rooms and usually complimentary continental style breakfast!!!!

The multi color flag is Buddhist flag...

welcome cambodia🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭

With the way things are right now in the states, I’m more scared of getting mugged here in America than in Cambodia.

A decent draft beer where you can find is in front of riverside. I like going to the place you mentioned 5 floors. This place has a crazy night life and a good decent draft beer. Sometimes, they have happy hour which buy 1 draft get 1 free draft beer for only 75c or a dollar. You should check it out.

I recommend you got The artist residence

There’s 2 types of Southeast AsianYou tubers; those that say they aren’t there for the girls, and those who are honest

And so, yeah. Nice video!

oskar bistros nice, theres one on soi 11 in bangkok. trendy spot with dj's and stuff

Hello sir សួស្តី

But seriously, Cambodia has been on the rise for the last decade . It hasn’t just sneaked up without notice .
