and i cant stand the zero quality here, specially the fkn foam mattresses

If you pay for a foam matress you get one,who's fault is that certainly not Cambodia's?

A traveler came to the gates of a new city and asked the gatekeeper, "What kind of people live here?"
The gatekeeper answered with a question of his own, "What kind of people lived in the city you just came from?"
The traveler replied, "They were mostly a cantankerous lot, greedy and self-centered."
The gatekeeper answered, "I expect you will find the people here just the same."
Soon after, another traveler met the gatekeeper and asked the same question. Again the gatekeeper asked, "How did you find the residents of the city you visited last?"
The traveler answered enthusiastically, "They were warm and hospitable; truly a fine group of people."
The gatekeeper responded, "I expect you will find these folk just the same."-

5 years ago I spent a week in KL and Penang.
In KL the process of going to a bar and getting a drink was way too complicated (I seem to recall you purchase a ticket on entry, then use it towards buying a bottle for your table). In that respect I prefer the more relaxed boozing in Thailand.
In Penang it was a little saddening seeing the majority of women walking around covered head to toe, and in the local bars (Batu Ferringhi) it was almost exclusively men.
I see people have remarked that you can find bacon and beer easily enough if you do some research, but personally I prefer being in a country where those things are not an issue in the first place.
Admittedly 1 week isn't long enough to get to know a whole country, but I just wanted to share my experience and thoughts with the OP.
I went there on a visa run once,got a five star hotel for sixty quid per night,went into a bar in the city centre sat down and ordered a pint of Stella whiuch came in those special tulip glasses they do.A bit expensive at ten quid a pint so I got a taxi to take me into the sticks,had a great chat with him in perfect English went into the bar he took me to and ordered a pint of Guinness for 5-6 quid.
It was like ordering a beer anywhere else in Asia but actually felt almost like being in a warmer version of the UK also,locals very friendly didn't have a single problem with anyone at all!
Then again the first place I ever lived in South-East Asia was Bali,Indonesia just before the bombings,plus I've lived inJakarta and guess what?No problems whatsoever strange that!-

Why Thailand if Malaysia is so much easier and nicer

I went to KL for a visa run and to the local clubs I found on Trip Advisor I think?As soon as I walked in girls were just coming up to me and quoting a price for the night in Ringgit from Vietnam,China,Phils and every other part of SEA it was mind boggling!
Then again I am a very 'Hansum Man' as all the Thai girls regularly tell me so!
