Locals depends on other company benefit to save money.... an example, some restaurants/hotels provide meals and accommodation for staffs. This helps a lot. Furthermore some will share the tips left behind by guests.

USD 300 type of room, is decent size with own toilet and shower room. These are meant more for foreigners or those whom earn more. When I stayed in PP, my rental is USD 350, a fully furnished studio apartment.

What bro Naemlo said is true.
Many Khmers working in the capital shared room to save money.
Average service staffs pay is from $75 - $120 usd, a lot stayed in their own workplace provided.
The comparison between the rich Khmers and poor are too huge.

Khmers have many ways to earn extra cash. Even local sangkat(commune police) moonlight as security, tu tu drivers. On top of bribes.

Rental deposit is not same as singapore standard. Sometimes have to put in 3-5months for 1 or 2 years rental. All depends on landlord.

Most will ask for 2+1... My last landlord was a young rich man, I made friend with him during my stay, once in awhile go beer with him... I rented his room for about 2 yrs plus... the contract suppose to end of 3rd year but he returned my 2 months deposit even before 3rd year and before I left PP. Most landlord will not return the deposit if u dun follow according to the contract.

If landlord is asking 3-5 deposit, better walk away... trust me it is easy to pass the money to them but difficult to get back the deposit. They will give excuses and delay returning and hoping u leave the country.

With contract, it is still very difficult to get back your money.

Agree. My Singapore Landlord refuse to return the deposit claimed he has to repair the Tiles and we did not service the Aircon monthly. Maybe is quarterly. I went to Small Claims Tribunals in Singapore against the Landlord for my Foreigner Colleagues staying in Singapore. We won the case that is he has to return us the 2 months deposit.

If u rent those apartments managed by reputed company then chances of getting back the deposit is high but if private owner then depends on the integrity of the owner.

No way u can get back unless u want to go thru the long process of getting a lawyer n go thru the legal ways, just dun forget, this is CAM. Even if u win after months, u are not guarantee of full refund. The only way in CAM is do what local does....Mafia style.

not true, only those low ranking ones moonlight as security, advantage is that they come with their own gun

Most landlord will not be stupid to accept this unless u guys are very close. Contract will state this too. Look at it this way, if u are the landlord, u will not agree to it. Cause u dunno whether your tenant will sell your appliances or any damage before he/she leaves .... further misc bill for the month will be known only on following month. End of the day, if the money is in landlord pocket, landlord decides when to return.
