You could always get New Zealand Working holiday visa.

Australian work on harvest trail is guaranteed, don't know about NZ.

You might be able to get one for Australia?

If you're set on Cambodia I'd just use your funds to learn how to code and sell your services afterwards. There is YouTube channel brettdev with details.

Cambodia cheap to learn a skill and bad to waste years of your life.

He'd never get that visa, he has 'not returning home once visa finished' written all over. It would cost him all of his 2000 just for lawyer fees anyways, if his lawyer is legit. And that's why they end up fucking their lives up here and not in NZ/AUS/N.Am.

Not sure what you mean.

I know you can apply for Oz electronic visa online and be approved within a day.

Taking chance with getting asked for bank statement though unless family could lend money for a month.

Research beforehand, pick town in picking season. Everyone works first day, decent workers get to stay. Travel around with harvest. Survival of the fittest. Die of goon poisoning within 12 months so no overstay, but qualify for extra 12 months anyway.

Minimum age now 35 if anyone thinks they missed boat.

Shame, oz is unlimited visas. Guess NZ is smaller.

I would go with code anyway and build up client base on upwork or something.
