American living in Cambodia

American living in Cambodia?
I wanted some information on if it is safe for an american to live in Cambodia for no more than a month. I have always been hesitant because of the child sex trade there, and many books and guides have made it sound EVERY SINGLE CHILD IN CAMBODIA is either a prostitute, digging through a garbage dump or working in a factory. I know the sad reality of poverty, but besides what the Khmer Rouge did to Cambodia, is it all around a pleasent country?

At first I thought, "Oh god another pedophile...." But anyway uhh, you are generally safe. If you are there for vacation just stick to the tourist stuff like backpacking or sightseeing.
2 :
Research the country. Then choose the safest place to resident. Good luck.

Cambodia is a risky place. I am American and my wife is Taiwanese. We went there last summer. We were followed by groups of beggars everywhere we went. My wife got her camera snatched out of her hands right in front of a police check point. The police ran past the thieves to ask us for money to get it back. Then they tried to make us pay them for a police report which we didn't want. I had to call my hotel to ask them what to do. The hotel said to smile and say no then walk away. Cambodia is a dive. Good luck. Regards,

Cambodia is a great place to visit, the people are great, obviously the books you have been reading are absolute rubbish, is there poverty yes..plenty of it..but Cambodia is developing at a rapid rate. As with all countries there are places to go and places to stay out of...just about every country in the world is dangerous to a certain degree..lets face as an American you are living in one of the most violent nations in the world. As with travelling anywhere keep your wits about you and you will be fine

Try to join a local football team or academy. Build your reputation. Get known. If you're lucky a scout might come your way.
3 :
You can live in cambodia and play football. Doesn't cambodia have any football league or team? You play with them then you slowly move to UK!
4 :
I can see by your sentence structure that you are fluent in your english, but thats alright, FIFA won't reconise you, it's scouts and clubs, if I were you, save up and go to Nigeria, Ghana, Ivory Coast, were a lot of scouts go. Good Luck.

What country are you currently in? Cambodia and Australia are completely different! Cambodian people are actually asian. They eat asian food, here in australia we eat aussie food! They speak asian (cambodian), we speak english. They go to temple we go to church (aussies arent overly religious though). Cambodia is like 7 hours by plane to get to from Australia.

"Eastern census prelude to expelling illegal immigrants Phnom Penh Post - 1 hour, 53 minutes ago The Ministry of Interior (MoI) has issued instructions to provincial governors and police chiefs to conduct a census of all immigrants living in Cambodia and expel those who entered the country after 1975 and have no documents to prove they are here legally."

it would be nice if something like that happened here.

you can't compare Cambodia's economy to our economy....
3 :
I agree with you that this is not a comparison of economies. Yes, even poor countries take a much more firm stance against illegal immigration than our country does. Amazing, isn't it? I wonder if they have a backlash in their country from "pro-illegal immigrant supporters" along the lines of, "But we will starve without our illegal immigrants doing jobs us Cambodians don't want to do," or, "But they just want to make a better life for their families," or, "You're ALL just racist!!" Etc.

HEY IDIOT!!!Are you implying that the U.S.A. BECOME COMMUNIST. WOW, and you claim to be AMERICAN. You should leave this country and go to CAMBODIA. JERK
5 :
Well they don't have to worry about me trying to go there. Good answer Daisy
