Re: Philippines or Cambodia
I live in Cambodia, so I'm going to recommend the Philippines (nothing personal). :arrow: Unless you're a single female, in which case, we warmly welcome you to Cambodia. :Rose: (Actually, I've never been to the Philippines, so maybe you should give Cambodia a try?) You should ask some specific ques...

Have you ever been in a crash on public transport in Asia?
Road safety is a common concern, especially throughout most of Asia. Recently, I was vaguely worrying about the potential risks of inter-city travel in Cambodia using one of the vans, and I realized that although I've spent decades in South and Southeast Asia, the only time I was even close to being...

Re: How old were you when you first visited Cambodia? Poll.
I first came to Cambodia in January 1999 for a four-day visa run from Bangkok when I was 34. Previously, I had done numerous visa runs to Penang and Kota Bharu in Malaysia via Hat Yai, then made several trips to Vientiane (via Nong Khai) starting in December 1996, including checking out Vang Vieng ...

Re: Phone noise
The worst is when you're at a restaurant and the restaurant owner, their spouse, kid, other family member, friend or the staff starts watching a video on their smartphone.

Re: Entering+traveling in Cambodia with Vietnam motorbike
Used to cross the KH/VN border many times over the years with my VN plated Scooter, mostly at Ha Tien. There was never any mention or question asked about the motorbike. Until December 23 when stamping out of Cambodia the officer said "you have motorbike? Go over there to the customs window&qu...

Re: Zombie apocalypse-Thailand
Now, there has been a curious turn of events as Thaksin is also possibly facing a royal insult charge just before he will become eligible for "parole". Has he been lured into a trap? Link: https://www.channelnewsasia.com/asia/convicted-thai-ex-pm-thaksin-facing-possible-royal-insults-charg...

Thanks for your response.BongKingKong wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2024 7:56 am If you want to be 100% legal ask for : "temporary import papers" for the bike. That way you are legal for 1 month.
Do you get these papers when crossing at the border or at some office in advance?

Entering+traveling in Cambodia with Vietnam motorbike
A friend of mine still lives in Viet Nam. He's thinking of traveling during the upcoming Tet holiday by riding his motorbike to Ha Tien and crossing into Cambodia with it from there. Does anyone have any up-to-date info or experience about doing this? I'm sure all his paperwork, license, etc. are le...
