I currently live in Australia and my wife is from Cambodia. When I retire I thought my pension might go a lot further in Cambodia than here in Australia so I was wondering what problems I might encounter if I retired in Cambodia.

Is the area you will stay safe enough? What about medicine and other necessary aspects? What about tax system? Have you been to Cambodia at all? If not, try a short stay first.

Yes, it is a beautiful country and quite cheap. However you need to check that you can get the best medical care.

Your money will definately go futher but what about quality of life. I recently spend 10 days traveling around. It is really dirty and dusty. I have allergies so that wasn't the best place to go. The culture can be alittle overwelming, especially the constant beggars and peddlers. But I will say that Cambodia is an exotic and wonderful place. There is a big expat community in Phnom Phen, Sihanouville, and Siem Reap. I will also agree with the medical aspect. There isn't very good places to go and you will probally get sick alot. I got food posioning and I was really careful. All things to think about. I have lived in Asia for four years and love it. If you are flexable, and are up for an adventure I would say go for it. If you like the modern comforts of society I might suggest to think twice.
