What brought you here? What made you stay?

Ask us anything. Cambodia Expats Online has a huge community of long-term expats that can answer any question you may have about life in Cambodia. Have some questions you want to ask before you move to Cambodia? Ask them here. Our community can also answer any questions you have about how to find a job or what kind of work is available for expats in Cambodia, whether you're looking for info about Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, or anywhere else in the Kingdom. You're also welcome to ask about visa and work permit questions as well, as the immigration rules change often, especially since COVID-19. Don't be shy, ask CEO's community anything!

I don't live in Cambodia, but I do visit once in a while. I live in Singapore. As an expat myself (I'm Australian), the attractive elements of Cambodia would be cheap housing, cheap booze, good food, and a relatively laid-back atmosphere, which goes for Phnom Penh as well.

Clearly, I needed to emote. Here you go! :D
